A Milhouse divided!

You're a grand old flag you're a highflying flag!

In five years when its even more dire WSJ will be posting about how millenials are splurging on sliced bread and milk.

Almost like George Lucas saw something happening and based star wars on something

Like a seasons worth of work right there

Like half a day of factory work

Its been usable, but hitting certified meaning that steam now ensures it works

Don't know why you had to make that sexist. I know male servers who have done the same.

Can. Have. Worth it.

Granted its easy when you're playing a game like Satisfactory

My spouse was roofied while I was in the restroom. I spent the night making sure she didn't choke on her vomit.

Its true. A great other example is asking any of us nerds what best computer is out there for a family member. I know I personally would rattle off all of the specs and tell them exactly what to get, when all they needed is a browser.

Now I tell them just get something that isn't on the discount rack and they'll be fine

As someone who cares about audio fidelity a lot, there is definitely a diminishing returns. You'll see me here telling people who complain "I have to constantly turn volume up and down for dialogue in movies". That's because your sound is TV speakers, basically phone speakers, go buy a sound bar and your life will get infinitely better.

If you want to go further you can get a nice set of speakers, even surround sound, and it's fun, but it's not as impactful as the first step.

Then though if you're already at a sweet 7.1 surround sound system, it's not going to matter if you get the high end cables, or spend 5k on the most bestest receiver. At that point you're just wasting money. You may get... 1-5% better fidelity for..... 500% of the cost?

Some people honestly don't have a sense of humor, and think their one joke is hilarious even when it's beaten with a dead horse.

First, assume they're not doing it to be malicious, and talk to them, say it was funny the first few times, it's grown old and you're tired of hearing it. It started off funny, but them saying it every time has switched to hurtful. Hopefully that's enough to get them to stop.

If they don't, then don't blow up, but next time they drop it start saying "Yeah, you said that last time we were together too", deflect the humor with neutrality. Jokes like that only work if people laugh, and if other people aren't laughing then usually it stops.

Just don't blow up. Blowing up sounds like a good idea, but will make you come off as "they can't take a joke"

I'm all for it, absolutely strike, but...

I think it's too late. The time to strike was years ago against the obvious bad decisions of upper management. Stock price is less than a dollar, the company IPs are worthless

Better late than never I guess

Kind of annoyed at her for only releasing it on closed platforms before, but here it is!

I've been an AI realist from the start. What can the models actually do? What are the limitations? Ultimately, I think there is a place in the market for them - for people who understand the limitations of them and know when they're spewing BS.

I am not shocked at all that OpenAI (and Microsoft being one of it's largest shareholders) is burning cash and suddenly is realizing it may not be able to make good on it's promises. AI reality vs AI hype. Us actual tech people have known since the beginning this was all hype, now finance people are starting to notice (about time).
