No, I was arguing in good faith; But I see it doesn’t resonate with you at all, so i’ll just leave it.

I agree, you could find it on a schoolyard.

But it’s not weird to get hung up about it, consider my angle: By talking like this, we’re defaming or decrying children. It will lead to less self-determination for young people in general, thus promoting the gerontocracy.

Never ceases to amaze me how this country has children as elected officials.

Could we please please please stop talking as if children are the worst? Everytime somebody misbehaves, there’s someone who calls it “childish” instead of “stupid” or “wrong”.

Well, what we need is some dedicated non-profit company making chips.

Two plates of rice or noodles with vegetables and salmon. Delicious. Actually, highest ROI that you could possibly hope to achieve in the universe.

noooo 😭

nooo the muffins 😭😭😭

how could you encrypt them 🥲

Not really.

Feminism embraces openness in society, including walking your own path.

If that includes deviating from cis male sexuality, then yes, feminism does indeed allow that to happen, if it happens naturally. In other words: feminism does not force you to take part in the toxic masculinity circlejerk.

In that way, yes, feminism probably reduces the amount of “male sexuality” which is basically toxic masculinity in the world. But it does not force that change, instead, it lets it happen.

They predicted pron would condition men to expect sex on demand and sexual assault rates would skyrocket when in fact the opposite happened.

Reminds me of “computer games turns teenagers into killer machines” saying.

I imagine it’s similar to marihuana.

If people find out there’s an easy, relaxed life, they don’t work so hard, hurting corporate profits.

Honestly, having a declarative package manager is pretty important.

Consider the following: We’ve had the transition from Sys V Init to Systemd recently. But what does it actually mean?

It means, that instead of running a command to start a service, you now flip a switch in a clear, standardized way. The advantage is that you can get a table-like overview over all the services that are currently running. You get an overview, in other words. That is worth a lot because it brings structure and clarity into your system.

Now, with package management it’s the same way. Instead of running a command to install a package, we should instead give a list of all the packages that we want to have installed, and the package manager should take care of making sure that they are installed. That would improve clarity, because you get a list of all the packages that are installed. It might also increase efficiency if you’re installing many packages, because large parts of the work can be done in parallel. And importantly, you get reproducibility. Imagine you just have a file where it names all the packages that should be installed. You can just take that list and copy it to another machine. Now you’ve cloned your package installations. I guess things like Docker, with their docker files, are kinda already going in that direction. But it would be nice to have support for it in the mainline operating systems.

This is excellent. Recognize when batteries make sense, and recognize when oil makes sense.

In this case, oil makes sense.

Yeah well, it ain’t stupid if it works.

The problem is that they’re not really made for this task, both in hardware and available software. They typically specialize in routing and switching, but have insufficient internal hardware (memory especially) to run a full-blown OS.

So whatever you install on these devices, will probably not give you all the features that you would like to have. (For example, a full linux command line with all the typical programs installed.) Also, it doesn’t allow you to use HDMI to connect to a monitor, so there’s that. But basic linux things can be done on it, if you figure out how to get to the command line. But it’s very limited.

I would say that both are interesting proposals to look at. Of course, doing the math and crafting the best approach is work and takes time, and I can’t give many details in a lemmy comment.

tbh if you’re worried about fiat currency, you shouldn’t be investing in crypto currency (which is even more volatile imo) but instead in real, physical assets (such as food and housing).

Then again, i believe that the big problems can only be solved by repairing the society as a whole. Investing in your own wealth, imo, isn’t worth it. But your choice is yours.

AI Training is a flexible energy consumer, meaning it can be switched on and off at will, so that it can take advantage of excess solar power during the daylight, providing extra income to solar panel parks. The important thing to do is to install solar panels, and then AI training isn’t an environmental problem anymore.

My father. He’s just a fine dude. Does a lot of things right, is never angry at anybody for too long, and just generally understands what’s important in life and why.
