People want the Democrats to do SOMETHING, ANYTHING. This shows that he's at least willing to stand for something, and that goes a long way.

Looks like some of the biggest changes the series has ever seen. I'm excited for it, but like many others, not excited enough for the price they are asking right now.

I dunno, all I see on Roku is an image banner on the home screen. I never even look at it.

I don't think anyone is going to change their views over an Internet post or conversation. Maybe someone might come around on a particular topic if an argument really resonates with them, but someone changing their entire worldview can take years. But sure, I think it's possible given enough conversation and slight nudging over time, given they aren't being more radicalized by other content every day.

Yeah, normal YouTube is totally unwatchable. If you have a Roku device, the Playlet app can let you watch without ads. There are probably methods for other devices too.

In 2022, I upgraded from a 750ti to an RTX 2060 (12gb). The 750ti was such an incredible budget GPU back in the day, and it served me well for many years. I just fear that the days of good budget GPUs are long gone.

I think a problem is that many jobs exist in the world, and we don't even know that most of them exist or what they are. If there are any really large companies near you, see if you can get in doing something, anything. Once you are in, you can learn about the different types of jobs in the company and maybe start trying to work towards something that you like better, either within that company or in another company. Also just having co-workers or a boss to discuss these things with can be a big help and open you up to some new possibilities that you didn't know about. But yeah, don't worry about finding your perfect job right away. Having any job will open doors and connections, making it easier to land that perfect job in the future.

I'm really surprised that people have subscriptions to all kinds of shit. The only things I pay subscriptions for are Netflix and Peacock, which total about $10 per month. I can't recall cancelling any subscriptions because I don't sign up for a bunch of shit in the first place.

 

I've been using Windows since the days of 3.1, practically my entire life. So I'm really comfortable with how windows operates and how to do the things that I want to do.

I've dabbled around with Linux over the years, but am now considering trying to make a full switch to it.

What are some resources to "learn" Linux properly? Such as understanding the filesystem, basic security practices, essential tools or commands, etc?

Because they have only been dropping for the past month.

AI often gets painted as people vs businesses, but that's not necessarily what it is in many cases. The EFF is arguing for fair use, which is something that they have stood for as long as I can remember. As the article argues, the businesses creating AIs can easily abide by this law, it's the little guys training things that would be impacted the most.

Anyone have a link to the text of the bill?

I'm confused, isn't the translation just on phone, not on the earbuds themselves? What does this have to do with the Airpods?
