I’m taking linguistic liberty by not saying “the ICU”. People say “sent to or discharged from hospital” all the time, so I’m trying to get away with it because the wording works better.
I might not be ready to lose my car but I sure as hell am ready to lose
Whatever it is you’re ready to lose, there are people out there who aren’t ready to lose it.
coal based electricity
Fuck right off, there are entire countries who would be completely at a loss without coal-based electricity. Countries which would rather you lose your car.
the military complex
Everyone working in the military complex would rather you lose your car than they lose their jobs. It’s you and your car vs millions of people all over the world specifically trained to identify threats to their security, find them and shoot/cut/drone/nuke them. Good luck.
single use plastic
I mean you wanna fight all the corpos involved with single used plastics, I’m sure having your car will keep you from being suffocated with a plastic bag for like 2 hours.
You’re unwilling to allow for changes in your personal lifestyle to globally change things for the better, so why the fuck would anyone else? Just nuke the planet from orbit at this point, we’re all egotistical shitheads and there’s no way to convince Jimmy McFuckface to give up his 1994 truck, we’re done here.
No, “it works on my machine” is the ever-tiring excuse every junior dev gives when they’re inexperienced enough to not understand that environments differ and just because yours is setup to run your code, doesn’t mean you did everything right so that an end-user can also run it. Did you package VCredist? Did you update the environment variables? Are you using another fucking compiler for some retarded 25-year-old’s reason instead of the one we use on our production server, so now every build is failing because you didn’t hold a review and pushed to master?
“It works on my machine” is spoken as if it should end all debugging. Goddamn, if it works on your machine and it doesn’t work on another machine, that’s a great clue. That’s where your debugging begins.
Yeah, tbf I get really angry when people settle for mediocrity - none of us were born knowing all the stuff, you just gotta keep trying to learn instead of climbing that high horse and refusing to think you’re ever wrong. Then I rant on the internet for a while and I can go back to coping in my day-to-day. Idk where the outdated part comes from though, that just sounds like you’re hard projecting.
Egyptian intelligence quietly changed the terms of a ceasefire proposal that Israel had already signed off on earlier this month, ultimately scuttling a deal that could have released Israeli hostages and Palestinian prisoners, and set a pathway to temporarily end the fighting in Gaza, according to three people familiar with the...
It could also be the type of case where her lawyers stop openAI from ever using her voice again, if she wants that to be the case.
Being rich opens up options. If openAI would be using my voice instead, they’d have a wildly less popular product but nobody to sue them for it, cause I’d be using my money to still dream about home ownership at some point before I die, not to hire lawyers or fight windmills.
“I just wanna debate this guy, but you know– and I’m gonna demand a drug test too, by the way,” Trump said as the audience cheered. “I am. No, I really am. I don’t want him coming in like the State of the Union. He was high as a kite.”
We’re talking about sexual attraction to children that don’t know how to file their taxes
Motherfucker are you in the IRS or why the hell do you think a boner is somehow related to following processes? “Oh god, yeah baby file that W2, I’m so hard right now” gtfo outta here with your weird ass fetish, what a fucking shit show.
Oh, you want only good reviews? It’d be a shame if people reviewed your game like “I apologize, I have nothing to say - I am under contract to say nothing bad about the game, and I have nothing good to say about it either.”
Playtest results inhibit you from disclosing things because they are subject to change. They take gamers’feedback, decide if they want to act on it, and at the end of the day the finished product may look different so it makes no sense for people to loudly state “they have feature X, and they don’t have feature Y” because by release it may be the other way around.
Whereas this type of contract says “idgaf what’s bad about the game, you can only sing its praises online”.
“Of that amount, ¥479.3 billion ($3.2 billion) came from game and content sales. Revenue from console sales totaled ¥287.5 billion ($1.9 billion), and revenue from game services was ¥133.9 billion ($887 million).”
So - Sony makes most money selling games, not consoles. They made 2 billion from selling consoles, and 4 billion selling games. All this for 120 million players worldwide.
There are about 1.8 billion pc gamers worldwide. Literally 15 times as many as Playstation gamers. Sony is selling games on the PC to reach this market and hopefully turn that 4 billion from game sales to 40 billion from game sales. Hooking people on franchises might be an added bonus, but that’s not why they’re doing it. They’re doing it because if they manage to sell a 5 dollar game to every single pc gamer, that’s more than their entire business is worth today, consoles and franchises and everything.
So your point is, we should disregard that elected officials deciding people’s fates are at best gullible/indoctrinated from birth and unable to escape the brainwash, and at worst - literally mentally ill enough to lack the power to distinguish reality from fairy tales? And that we should trust them with defining a set of norms that society abides by, when their set of ethics is founded on the delusional ramblings of people thousands of years ago, ramblings ultimately responsible for genocidal movements like the crusades?
Fuck aliens, my dude. No need to look across the universe for problems. We have enough in our own back yard. You’d disregard them if they believed in Santa or the tooth fairy, why not disregard them when they believe in magic shepherds and eternal suffering for those who disagree with them? At least the fuckers who believe in Santa aren’t arguing for the brutal torture of those who don’t believe in Santa.
Hey you seem pretty knowledgeable so I’m gonna just ask - if these types of events happen regularly in earth’s atmosphere, why build particle colliders at all? Is it just to have control over when they’re triggered and to be able to observe the results? If so, wouldn’t it help to just launch more satellites that can observe when these things happen in the atmosphere? Sorry for the dumb questions, I’m very much a layman.
