Haven't installed official steamos yet, but bazzite runs great! With the 40cu unlock (well 38/40 for me), I get close to the performance of my giant 3700x/rtx 2080 combo. For AAA games, you might want to set the UMA to 6G rather than the 512Mr ecommended for general use. But maybe the official steam is handles the unified memory better. I've held myself back from buying more of them to leave them available to other folks short on $.

That's one way to make new anarchists. 😂

Have a mouth full of the teeth you extracted from people you owned. Let's never forget that shit.

Yeah, ol' GW, was kind of a monster.

I'll still respond for the sake of anyone else reading this. What I used was an analogy. I'm pointing out that you were dismissing the potential for moral objections to the use of AI. That is not the same as equating, but you probably know that.

You, like, other AI boosters are unable to fathom that folks' moral objections are both truly held and legitimate so you feign ignorance and shut down any critique by simultaneously clutching pearls and claiming that the thing we find morally repugnant is "inevitable." Happy to avoid future interactions. ❤

Totally. Why should anyone care about whether their clothes were made by slaves or prisoners or children? Only the tightness of the stitching and fabric is a valid measure of clothing's quality. 🙄

This. I'll never understand how a person can hold simultaneously the values of freedom and of seeking to punish or exclude the Other. Promoting DRM-free games feels like a freedom-respecting move. Same with the undercurrent of xenophobia/homophobia/transphobia that exists within some FOSS spaces. It's utterly confusing.

Police should not exist. You can't reform an evil thing (an alleged monopoly of violence) into something useful.

Then they engaged in a smear campaign against a woman who suffered 2nd and 3rd degree burns on her genitals. People laughed about it for years. But hey, McRib and Szechuan sauce.

Forget the ethics or legality (okay, please don't, just set them aside momentarily). At a little over 1.3 million active duty military members, that's about $100 per person. Wow, that's gonna go so far at the commisary.

Congrats!

This mirrors convoy with my mom.

Me: I need to tell you something and I need for you to not freak out.

Mom: Of course, honey.

Me: I'm trans.

Mom: Oh Jesus Christ! You had me worried. I thought something was wrong.

For. The. Last. Time.

This. Is. Not. How. A. General. Strike. Works.

I'm convinced that these posts are false flags to give the idea of a general strike a bad name. A real general strike requires planning, coordination, saving for lack of income, commitment from individuals and communities. This would take a long fucking time, probably years, to put together. This shit ain't fucking it.

Tell me you don't know who the Luddites were without telling me you don't know who the Luddites were.

Excerpt from Karen's training:

Remember, everyone: a proper molotov is a sealed bottle with an external wick thrown at the ground (assuming a ground-level thing you'd like to ignite). The much-depicted flaming rag in a bottle is just a recipe for hurting yourself and your fellow Antifa colleagues.

Wow, we've come so far in the last 20 years... In 2006, Jimmy Carter's book, Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid was released. Thank goodness we've come together as a society to figure out how best to refer to the domination of the Palestinian people 🙄.

Here's a brief synopsis of the various things Brave has gotten up to, with receipts rather than "Brave is spyware": https://thelibre.news/no-really-dont-use-brave/.

Personally, I see a pattern of continually engaging in underhanded and rent-seeking behavior that does not align with its stated goal of ensuring user privacy. Because I see a pattern of trying things to see what they can get away with, I lack any trust in their future behavior and have no desire to use software that I feel I have to maintain constant vigilance over what changes they're making from release to release.

7 boxes in one day??? Incredible!

It's evil, full stop. Either it's a series of expensive, environmentally destructive parlor tricks designed to create a false impression of intelligence and inner life in order to enable the economic displacement of our fellow humans in an already wildly economically stratified world or, worse, it's an attempt to create and then enslave an actual intelligence with an actual inner life.

Fuck every fucking thing about that and fuck everybody working toward it, including OP. You're doing evil shit in the world and you don't understand why people don't like it. You're confused and upset that people actually do have morals and beliefs that haven't been buried under the strain of modern life. You want to steal from others, degrade their daily life, enable systems of coercion and control, then have people treat you nicely because you think you're special and clever and you deserve to be rewarded because you figured out what the next big thing is ahead of the herd. You're not, you don't, and you haven't.

In top of all of that, it just sucks. When it isn't making up bullshit, it's producing the most boring, milquetoast nonsense imaginable. On the bright side it may be wrecking the economy shortly.

So please, do yourself and all of us a favor- find something useful and fulfilling to do with your life and stop building the torment nexus. You get one short ride on this rock, don't waste it making your life and the lives of others worse.

That is... incorrect for a whole host of reasons, not the least of which is the following copyright notice given by the EFF themselves:

Really a question of whether you still trust the state apparatus to protect you and your loved ones from physical violence. For the right, the need to protect themselves was never anything but a bogeyman dreamt up by gun manufacturers and racist opportunists. The calculus may well differ for other folks given the current state of things and the lessons one might draw from history.
