It’s funny how everybody these days thinks they have ADHD because the phones their glued to trained them to have no attention span. Definatley not good for youngsters to have constant access to them! Not good for adults either!!!

Mind if I ask for information on what emulator u use? Been considering getting into a handheld PC one of these days, got a switch little over a year ago for mobile gaming and honestly I love it for what it is but it was a bit dated when new to put it nicely… And price of a switch 2 I might as well spring for a legion go or something if that nature

It’s tough but what is there to say? Oh we got fucked again? Kind of feel like a parrot with one phrase at this point lol. I think most people are more or less speechless.

I built my SO gaming rig for about 550 bucks. 5600x ryzen and rx580. Idk if it’s “more powerful” than a console or not but it plays games fine. Yes I know the 580 is dated and only pci3.0 vs board supporting 4.0, but she didn’t have money to spend. I have a 6600xt I got used for a hair over 200 when GPU prices were nuts and it plays all I ask it to at 1080p. You CERTAINLY don’t need to shell out 500 on a GPU that’s ridiculous. I will never understand the dick waving in the PC community about needing the best greatest top of the line and latest hardware to be able to game, when u can spend half the money to get 85% of the performance or something. I am confident for the cost of a PS5 u can rival PS5 performance in a PC build, and even if it’s not “better” the difference in cost of games is enough that a couple game purchases puts you into another class of GPU anyways!

From what I understand your spot on except for the nicotine part. Nicotine on its own right from what I understand isn’t all too terrible for you, however having nicotine in ur airways keep ur lungs and throat from expelling contaminants from lungs via the cilia (hairs that push contaminants out of airways). So by the very nature of vaping or smoking, the nicotine in ur airways stops ur airways from clearing out the crap that’s bad for ur lungs (for example if u smoke weed and vape, the weed smoke that’s bad for u can’t get out and will cause more damage than if u didn’t vape). This is why when u stop vaping or smoking, after a few days to a week you tend to have coughing fits. This is ur Celia finally getting back to business and pushing nasty shit out of ur lungs after being suppressed for so long. This discovery is also why I finally quit vaping, as I quit smoking cigs for a healthier life but I was not achieving what I wanted by replacing it with vaping. Yes it’s better for you, but better is relative. It’s still bad for you and there’s no arguing that.

If it’s just mirroring you one could argue you don’t really need it? Not trying to be a prick, if it is a good tool for you use it! It sounds to me as though your using it as a sounding board and that’s just about the perfect use for an LLM if I could think of any.

So couldn’t we say LLM’s aren’t really AI? Cuz that’s what I’ve seen to come to terms with.

We’re coming up to a time where we may need to use the second amendment as the founding fathers intended- and the conservative sheep won’t be happy about it!

I didn’t even read the article that information is right in the title LOL

As somebody that works on a lot of Chryslers I can tell you I 100% despise theirb"security gateway" nonsense. Scanner has to be connected to vehicle and connected to wifi. You need a monthly subscription to access the security gateway otherwise it locks you out of the vehicle you can’t clear codes nevermind run bidirectional functions or program modules. If everybody had their own nonsense gateway like this, no shops would be able to stay in business everybody would have to go to their respective dealers. How many subscriptions can you expect a shop to hold? It’s pretty ridiculous. It also means if ur off roading in a wrangler and a fluke puts the PCM in limp mode, your not getting out of limp mode in the woods as you don’t in have wifi connection to security gateway. Undoing terminals doesn’t reset these issues anymore. Yes I have seen it happen where new JL wranglers have to lug out of the woods in limp mode over a fluke thing that just needed a computer reset. Yea ill stick to my 87 YJ when I go wheeling.

I’m just making commentary bud. Multiple times in the city I’ve seen people nearly get hit by busses because they cross the street nose deep in their phone without looking up. Some people can’t come unglued for 10 seconds to look both ways before crossing a busy roadway in a bus plaza, it’s kind of crazy!

Smart phones are just pocket computers. Up to you how their used, good evil neutral it’s all at ur fingertips.

That will never work, nobody has discipline anymore

Lol Alabama family trees are more like telephone poles

Some one? I’m sure there will be more than one lol. And unfortunately probably not who we want it to be.

Curious to see how unglued this country gets after pissing on Trump’s parade, I have a feeling we’re in for quite a treat

You can do anything once, twice if your quick!

This is the sort of adoption we need to bring Linux into the mainstream

Yea but we both know you wont, because your just as credible. It’s a fact that it you average ev has twice the carbon footprint of a ice car, and takes 3 years roughly to offset its carbon emissions assuming 15k miles driven a year. At 10 years, carbon footprint of an ice car is roughly double that of the ev, but from 10 years on your subject to battery failure and now need to dispose of a big nasty battery pack and replace it. It will take a few decades to see what the true footprint of evs are, and there is no published studies with the long term effects because we haven’t gotten there yet. This is the closest thing I found upon a brief search, so fesrlst yer eyes on a graph. Keep in mind that’s based off a Nissan leaf and fiat 500, you could choose a more economical car with smaller footprint and a larger footprint ev to skew results in my favor, or compare the leaf to a truck or whatever ur average American drives and steer the conversation towards evs but I think it’s a reasonable apple to apples comparison. This whole conversation has been speculation and I thank you for ur engagement 👍 https://www.factcheck.org/2024/02/electric-vehicles-contribute-fewer-emissions-than-gasoline-powered-cars-over-their-lifetimes/
