This you?
You know what you can learn? To own up to your mistakes, instead of pretending like you were saying something else the whole time.
Another coping mechanism I’ve learned is to walk away from people who are more interested in their own narratives than reality. If you respond, I won’t see it.
but you probably realise that
I do, and I appreciate your recognition of that. Nowhere in my post did I say this is everyone’s experience, but it is mine, and a lot of people here seem to have a problem with it.
I think you should re-read my post, because nowhere in there did I say everyone should use GPS or it’s dangerous to drive. I just said that’s how and why I use it. When I do, it does keep people safe, because I’m not putting myself in a situation where I’m likely to be distracted by trying to figure out my route while I’m behind the wheel. Distracted driving is dangerous driving, period dot and end of story, regardless of neurodiversity.
You seem to recognise that people are in fact all different, so I’m very confused as to why you’d then come at me to tell me I’m handling my disability wrong when you don’t know me or the spread of symptoms I’m living with. I can’t unlearn my brain structure, but I can mitigate it, so I do that. I’m not the idiot, here.
In my case, it’s dangerous because I’m suddenly distracted from the road by trying to figure out where I’m supposed to be going in the immediate moment. I’m on the spectrum, and on-the-fly changes of plan spike my anxiety - nothing I can do about that except work around it. That isn’t a personal fault, I’m keeping myself and other people safer on the road.
So I’m gonna keep using the GPS even when I know where I’m going, that way if I realise I’m gonna miss my exit I don’t panic and instead can keep going with the confidence that the GPS will re-route me and I’ll have time to be in the correct lane for the next one.
I’m autistic and do not do well with a change of plans, especially under time pressure, but thanks so much for assuming that it’s because I lack “critical thinking skills” (which is not what that is, by the way) and taking the chance to insult me for working around my limitations.
When you grow up, you’ll learn that people are all different, and that supplementing one’s abilities with the tools available is not a weakness. I’m going to keep using the GPS even when I know where I’m going, not because I’m “overreliant on technology” or “afraid of things I haven’t planned for”, but because I’d like to keep myself and other people safe. I can’t help but feel that if everyone took this sort of attitude, we’d have far fewer collisions.
No details on what this initiative even is - doesn’t seem to be a failure of reporting. Just more brazen theft by this rogue administration.
Even when I know the route like the back of my hand I still use GPS. Why? Because if there’s any variation in the route, such as due to construction or a parade, I’m no longer 100% sure of how to get where I’m going, and a driver that doesn’t know where they’re going in is one of the more dangerous things on the road IMO.
But then how would I have known that VPN users are typically privacy-conscious? 🐍
(there’s still no emoji for sarcasm so I went with a snake because it’s not just /s it’s /sssss)
This is just one step, though. Money to Mullvad goes in part to the cofounder who is a racist piece of shit.
But to your question, I think the “dilution” question has a different answer for everyone. Have you seen “The Good Place”? Philosophy is the major theme and this is one of the major philosophical questions they deal with. Great show, recommended if it’s unfamiliar to you.
Guy keeps talking about their “customers” and they don’t charge a dime. I’m not sure that word means what he thinks it means. They have users, and that’s exactly what he’s acting like.
Early 2000s: The Mech Madness forums, for discussing Armored Core, BattleTech, Gundam, and all other things mech and mech-related. It was a decent-sized community, for the time.
I appreciate that you picked up what I was putting down. So little room for artistry in written communication, nowadays.
They are strategists prioritizing their own wants above that of the voters and human decency
Right, that’s what we said. Cowards.
Hey now, that’s not fair! A used tampon has contributed a lot more benefit to society than Ben Shapiro ever will.
I typically prefer subbed; watching dubbed feels off somehow. Then again, I’m perfectly fine with the dubbing in DBZA so it must be a preference I learned somewhere!
What device are you watching on, and is it happening to all videos equally or does an MKV lag more than an MP4 for example? Are there any errors showing in the jellyfin logs?
Ahhhh fair play. I have a lot of freedom since I’m paying out of pocket for my own use. I have a pretty beefy rig for running local, but it’s not beefy enough to run deepseek pro and the like 😬 so, I have a bunch of subscriptions to try out a bunch of different models and see what works best in my workflow. I also have a problem with making alts in games, which seems like it rhymes 🤔
Been pretty impressed with glm5.1 too, before deepseek-v4 came out, but you’d be amazed what even a smaller older coding model can do with the right config and a little proactive context management. I really hope this trend of smaller, better models for local agentic use continues.
I’ve been using deepseek v4 flash on opencode’s infra for a couple of weeks and it’s pretty solid for something so low-cost. Honestly satisfied with it over Claude, for the premium Anthropic charges. Have you tried it at all?
Until we get to the total plan limits. They don’t cover costs to infinity, you know. And for something like cancer treatment, most plans don’t actually offer enough coverage to sustain it for years, so you’re still on the hook for tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars after all is said and done.
