Don’t believe the ads. They are just trying to hype something that is too early for its time.

VR tech can, and it will, revolutionise gaming. It’s just a question of when. Headsets are too heavy and require wires which impedes movement. VR glasses are developed by big tech and are perfect for privacy invasions, plus their batteries don’t last anywhere near long enough.

Smartphones had already been invented nearly a decade before iPhones came out, but they were too early. The tech wasn’t ready. Look at where they are now. Solar panels were invented nearly a century ago but didn’t take off until then entire supply chain and manufacturing chain was built nearly 80 years later. The friggin helicopter was invented centuries ago and so were planes. You will find countless other examples.

Right now, we’re trying to make it possible to conceive children without any sex and to grow them in external wombs. This has been a quest for decades and we might not see it bear fruit for a few decades more.

Just because they have failed so far doesn’t mean they will always be failures. Every failure narrows the problem space to points of success.

What? The land of the free? Whoever told you that is your enemy!

La Marseillaise, the French National Anthem.

We need another revolution against the rich. This song should be blasted in front of the houses of rich fucks and whenever they show up in public.

Tax your rich, investigate corruption, close the loopholes.

I read Bluesky, I read centralised.

On deathbead, poor as a rock: at least I didn’t slack off and was of value to the economy!

Their best and brightest.

You’re wishing a glorious doom upon us, my friend.

Good to know. Thanks. I’ll wait on the next post when the fixed version has been uploaded.

Ah, you ran into neckbeards. This is a typical interaction with them. They are afraid because they are finally in a position of power digitally whereas in real life, nobody cares about them. Honestly, ask LLMs https://chat.mistral.ai or something else.

I have Linux but am a casual user and my experience with Linux users has been nothing short of terrible. Before LLMs, I had to either find the answer on some *overflow website, the ubuntu forums, or just give up and move on. Now, LLMs help me out more than humans ever did. LLMs don’t tell you you’re stupid, they don’t ridicule your question, they don’t ridicule you. Of course they can be dangerous if they give you bad commands, but so can humans.

If you must talk to humans online to get help, what I’ve seen work is to tell them they are wrong and that your solution works 100%. Some neckbeard will show up, call you stupid, and give the solution. And if that doesn’t work, just ridicule them and say it didn’t work, which means your solution is the right one. It’ll make them try to prove you wrong even harder 🤷

That would be amazing.

I don’t read German, but I was curious and wanted to let an LLM translate it at least a little. They published a PDF which has full-page images in it. Why? It’s utterly perplexing to publish something to the internet that way. It’s like having the ability to share a stone tablet, but instead you take a picture of it and put that behind glass with a filter so that it can only be viewed form certain angles.

Sometimes, I don’t understand Germans.

The big brain simplistic view of “every X is Y”. Every mod is a dick. Every linux user is intelligent. Every windows user is stupid. Every Indian smells. Every African is poor. My logic is always sound.

Uh… gamers are the so weak, they buy anything that’s shiny enough. Games by big studios pushing out shiny crap still make millions. Gamers can’t stop buying skins and will have wars about them too. EA, Blizzard, RockStar Games, Ubisoft, and many other companies are still huge companies because gamers barely care. Only once in a while do they massively reject large games.

Only about 1.2M EU gamers even cared to sign in the EU initiative to Stop Killing Games. There are 450M EU citizens. There are way more EU gamers than just 1.2M and the vast majority didn’t care enough to sign an initiative in their own interest.

RAM makers are safe. Gamers will just give in and pay 3k+ for a gaming rig with welded on RAM (or whatever shit it is crApple does to make their devices unupgradeable).

What are you providing here as proof? Those are two communities (incorrectly linked btw, but I don’t know if that’s fedia’s fault). What’s with them?

wat?

“fact”

where proof?

I love the fediverse

Anything that puts a layer between your skin and the sun and car exhaust, probably more helpful than harmful.

That definitely isn’t true. Acid puts a layer between you and the sun and isn’t good for your skin. There are creams that dry your skin leading to cracks and death of certain healthy bacteria on your skin. The cracks can expose your body to fungi and dangerous bacteria. Things like mixing suncream and anti-mosquito spray can lead to serious rashes and skin irritation. Creams can also have a low SPF and damaging effects to the skin, giving you a false sense of security while destroying your skin even more.
