It’s one of the things I’ve bounced off of many times, but each time I come back and give it another shot it gets a bit easier until one day I thought, hey this isn’t as bad as I used to think. Not really a ringing endorsement, but I definitely don’t hate it anymore. I would still rather do as much as I possibly can in Krita though.
He looked at me. And I looked at him. And he looked at me. And I looked at him. And he says what did you want again?
I feel the same way about meat, I always put sauces on my meats
They’re probably the same demographic in some ways in that they’re right wing and Trump supporters, they’re just in the upper echelon of the grifters not the grifted.
Having an unlocked phone anywhere near a cop is a bad idea considering they can just grab it. There are stories of them using people’s handcuffed hands to unlock phones with fingerprints against the wishes of the phone’s owner so I definitely wouldn’t put it past them to grab it out of your hand.
If I’ve learned anything from video game design, it is much easier to balance smaller numbers. You’d have to be careful to figure out the most amount of some small basic staple you’d need and ensure that it wouldn’t have to cost less than 1 cent per unit, however, before setting your minimum value.
Of course, picking the value of your own local currency without regard to its value on the global market isn’t really feasible.
I’m not sure if that was supposed to be in agreement or countering what I said.
Over the past few decades, some people have noticed and commented on the enormous death toll that our reliance on driving and the vast amount of driving hours spent on our roads and said that that amount of death is unacceptable. Nothing has ever been able to come of it because of that aforementioned reliance on driving that our society has. Human nature cannot be the thing that changes, we can’t expect humans to behave differently all of a sudden nor change their ability to focus and drive safely.
But this moment in time, when the shift from human to machine drivers is happening, the time when we shift from beings incapable of performing better on a global scale, to machines able to avoid the current death tolls due to their ability to be vastly more precise than humans, this is the time to reduce that death toll.
If we allow companies to get away with removing sensors from their cars which results in lower safety just so that said company can increase their bottom line, I consider that unacceptable even if the death toll is slightly lower than human driven cars if it could be greatly lower than human driven cars.
Humans are extremely flawed beings and if your standard for leaving companies alone to make as much money as possible is that they are at least minimally better than extremely flawed, I don’t want to live in the same world as you want to live in.
Really? You don’t think that building solid foundations for people to get on their feet and start making more money themselves, money that they can turn around and spend on more products, would have a fantastic return? The benefit for the economy would be immense but corporations can’t write that into their spreadsheets changing their bottom line so it “doesn’t count”
Yeah. Come back in 10-15 years when half the world is using it or a successive product and people will be posting articles like these laughing at them like they do with the ones saying the internet or cell phones will never catch on and surprisingly no one will open up and admit they were the ones denying it would come. Meta has the money, they don’t care how much they spend, as long as they can get in and corner the market early they will make it back many times over in the years to come… assuming climate change or nukes don’t make it impossible of course.
If you look at the people in advertisements, you see the demographic that the company is targeting to buy their product. If you think that’s what the new captain looks like, maybe it will be a successful change for the company, even if the loud voices on the internet don’t like it.
I use it because I have learning difficulties and it’s nice to be able to ask question after question until I nail down the exact detail that I needed to be able to understand the concept I’m trying to learn. I’ll take all the downvotes in the world for this because the benefit I’ve got from using the service far outweighs anything else.
Their tactics aside, copilot is very useful. It’s helped me a ton on my education journey. Free and easy access to it on the desktop has been game changing for me.
Everyone knows that… that’s what they mean by free, free to use. Why do you think people don’t know this? Did you just figure it out or something? Are you seriously that slow?
They say it’s free but that’s how they get ya. It’ll only cost your soul!
What do you expect? “We’re not hosting an intergalactic kegger down here!”
People who are so uneducated that they think funding public education is a bad investment are great proof of why we need better public education…
Considering it is such a small percentage of the budget and they have developed so much useful technology (https://www.howtogeek.com/831363/these-nasa-innovations-are-all-around-us-everyday/)
I would say, take the money from other things that suck, like handouts to the rich and wasteful military overspending which would easily cover the things we need to cover. Defunding NASA would contribute to the dummification of the country and is a terrible idea.
Which is short sighted considering it is much easier to make a standardized library for converting time zones than it is to make a standard library reflecting what different time numbers mean in different places around the world. If they somehow convinced people to make the change, they would find out pretty quickly they were better off with the devil they knew.
