Kind of funny story, I launched Stardew valley yesterday and my displays absolutely shit themselves even though my graphics card is pretty new. Turned out that nvidias stupid app had changed the display settings to something weird. I had to manually flip it back to borderless and that fixed it but at first I was like "how out of everything I've played is this the one having problems?"

Because your congressperson is bought and paid for and there aren't enough people assassinating health insurance CEOs in the street to inspire them to change their ways.

Yeah, I'm kind of excited to explore what kind of activities outside has come up with since I was a teenager. Gonna have a lot of free time now that computing won't be fun anymore.

I agree with a lot of the things you said about the problems with AI but not that this is one of them.

If it wasn't this it would have been something else. People with mental health issues can get fixated on things and spiral until they act out. This has been a thing for as long as there have been mental health issues. It's not a failing of AI, it's a failing of society for not having sufficient mental health support to catch people like this before they go off the deep end. They shouldn't have to turn to AI in the first place.

You really think it’s at all practical to build out everywhere a network of station

It works with propane tanks.

one ton batteries to fit every age of every vehicle in every location no matter how rural and heavy automated equipment to maneuver them?

That's where standardization comes in. All vehicles would use the same cells, or maybe a couple sizes depending on use case. No reason they have to way a ton either a car could have multiple cells sized for a person to be able to handle themselves. This would also allow you to "top up" if they can get the cells to drain sequentially.

You want to hold battery technology stagnant to support this? You want to lose the efficiency and reliability benefits of structural batteries.

As long as new technology connects to the old connections then they can change whatever they want inside the cells. That's how batteries have been for pretty much the entire history of batteries. And no I don't want to lose anything. I was merely asking a question.

The reality is current batteries already last longer than the first owner keeps a vehicle and newer ones easily exceed lifespan of ice vehicles.

I'd very much like to know what the actual numbers are for "how long the first owner keeps a vehicle" and the "lifespan of ice vehicles". I've had my car for 15 years and I'm the first owner. My dad had a truck that's coming up on 40 and is still kicking. EVs haven't even been around long enough to prove that

You should be fine if it's just messing with the usual document types but my understanding is universities use a lot of proprietary bullshit for homework and stuff these days that probably doesn't play well with Linux. I would try setting up a virtual machine or a old PC if you have one first to dip your toes in the water

You can cook chicken dry on high and burn the shit out of it. It’s “cooked” but not great.

Speak for yourself. I like when it's cooked that way.

I mean if Gemini was responding to some kind of roleplay then yeah it does. Not everyone doing shit with it has mental health problems. Some people are just fucking around.

Not that I want to defend AI slop, but what prompted these responses from Gemini?

Never understood why EVs aren't made with standardized hot swappable cells. Would solve the range problem and the wear problem.

Yeah I read labels a lot too. The main thing is just making sure your buggy is as out of the way as possible so people can get by and retaining enough situational awareness to move if someone needs at something on the four feet or so of shelving you are still blocking.

Windows 12 has been postponed until 11 is fixed.

LMAO

 

I've backed up many of the Steam games I had installed in Windows. Am I able to use these on Linux or do I need to re-download them?
