Turn young white men against you instantly with this one easy trick!

During the iPhone 17 launch event, Apple revealed that its customers took 500 billion selfies last year, a massive figure that shows just how normalized the practice has become.

Selfies were often mocked when they were deemed the purview of Instagram-obsessed teenage girls, but these days it’s not unusual to see everyone from seniors to a gaggle of sports bros gathering around a single phone like an object of worship.

Yes, now everyone is Instagram-obsessed, not just teenage girls. The ageism and misogyny was wrong. The negative assessment of people being vain was not.

so in other words it’s automatically removing some of my image in order to fake being portrait or landscape?

I love the double meaning in the title. We’re both content for consumption, and content with the situation.

This describes literally every pet system in any game where the pets can battle.

This is so overly broad, it’s insane.

Oh boy do I have a surprise for you…

But is Tamriel Rebuilt installed?

If only…

that’s where the hand on the throttle comes in!

a double-entendre all on its own!

We can’t create them either. Think of any system you think is perfectly rational, and then ask yourself by what standard its rationality is determined.

That is a bunch of assumptions right there.

The reality is that businesses often don’t know when more people are needed, don’t have the correct people making the decisions whether to hire even if needed, can’t get the budgets approved even if the hiring mgmt chain is on board, can’t get approval to offer competitive salaries, etc etc.

There are a million reasons why companies don’t hire when they need to, or do hire when they don’t.

Humans aren’t perfectly rational, and can’t create perfectly rational systems.

Never met someone else who knows TLJ! Probably my favorite point-and-click.

Another article conflating LLMs and AI.

AI is unfortunately supercharging lots of systems, especially in the police/intelligence spaces. Surveillance driven by AI is absolutely skyrocketing both in capabilities and prevalence.

xAI and OpenAI aren’t seeing good ROI, being LLM companies. Palantir and their ilk are another beast altogether.

I almost wonder if this misstated “underperformance” of “AI” is intentionally trying to make people less fearful about it being weaponized against them.

After all, the AI balloon is deflating, right?

This is 1000% a scheme by the prisons to make it as onerous and fraught as possible to appeal. They certainly aren’t going to help their ‘revenue-sources’ get out.

US prisons have tons of things like this.

• Prison commissaries are notoriously designed to gouge prisoners for small “luxuries”.
• Some prisons limit the list of allowed books to almost nothing (or force prisoners to use e-readers with per-minute subscription costs that are also exorbitant), or even use kiosks that they get very little time to access.
• Many states and prisons charge room and board while you’re confined.

All of it is done to both extract maximum profit while they’re inside, and to try to ensure people exit in debt, so they’re both hard-pressed to find work and desperate for money, because both things make people more likely to end up back in prison.

You can buy it ‘naked’ without the desktop shell, for clustering (though also just to choose your own case).

It’s really meant as an LLM-runner that fits on your desk, for people who aren’t looking to have a rackmount setup. Hell, unless I want to add a 4U monster to my rack for a GPU setup, even a single FWD is going to outperform most rackmounts for running LLMs.

I do think there’s value to it as a gaming machine if only because other OEMs aren’t offering desktops with Linux, and certainly not ones that can run games very well without any user upgrades, but yeah, it’s definitely not intended as a “gaming machine”.

I think so. I was mostly a chopper pilot flying blackhawks so I don’t recall most of the fixed wing aircraft, but an A10 would make sense.

Desert Combat was so much fun. Really great memories from that mod.
