Ken Ham has an idea about money.
  • Oh, that's how I'm supposed to react. Good thing he put it in there! /s

  • God of War Ragnarok PC port suffers review bombing on Steam due to PlayStation Network account requirement
  • I hate that the term "review bombing" completely generalized to just "a lot of negatively reviewing something". Review bombing is supposed to be negative reviewing that's not relevant to the game, like when it was originally used to speak out against publishers, because, you know, that's the only thing that seemed to get their attention. Now we just have the tools and excuses to just kill genuine criticism.

  • If you don't use /s when being sarcastic, I'm going to treat your comment as being earnest
  • Isn't that what /srs is for? /s was sarcasm before any other tonal indicators.

  • Youtube or Spotify?
  • I had GPM for years, and dealt with YTM for about a year before getting sick of it. Spotify isn't bad, and a lot of alternatives the comments mention I'm sure are good as well. Honestly though, I ended up just archiving all my music in a Jellyfin server and paying $5 for the Symfonium app. It's pretty nice.

  • unwatchable!!
  • I literally thought the correction in my head while in the theater. It took some restraint to not mention anything to my partner lol

  • Debate wrap up: No one has ever so thoroughly dominated Donald Trump
  • I just finished watching the debate myself, I don't know if she dodged more than once, she certainly didn't do as much dodging as he did. But she 100% dodged answering why the Biden administration hasn't removed Trump-era tariffs without even a hint of addressing it. I'm not a big fan of what that entails, I think globalization in US economy might be coming to a screeching halt no matter who gets elected.

  • The Irony of 'You Wouldn't Download a Car' Making a Comeback in AI Debates
  • Do you have a source for Search Generative Experience using a separate model? As far as I'm aware, all of Google's AI services are powered by the Gemini LLM.

  • The Irony of 'You Wouldn't Download a Car' Making a Comeback in AI Debates
  • The last I had heard of this were articles months in saying it was still not fixed, but this doesn't invalidate my point. It may have been retrained to respond otherwise, but it spouts garbled inputs.

  • The Irony of 'You Wouldn't Download a Car' Making a Comeback in AI Debates
  • Generative AI does not work like this. They're not like humans at all, it will regurgitate whatever input it receives, like how Google can't stop Gemini from telling people to put glue in their pizza. If it really worked like that, there wouldn't be these broad and extensive policies within tech companies about using it with company sensitive data like protection compliances. The day that a health insurance company manager says, "sure, you can feed Chat-GPT medical data" is the day I trust genAI.

  • What's the most petty/pointless/pedantic hill you're willing to die on?
  • I mean, that just comes from lacking a multiple "you" conjugation. Just another reason English is terrible

  • Trump Insists He’s “Extremely Normal” During Incredibly Weird Speech
  • Trump: I'm rubber, and you're glue, and the things you say bounce off of me because ALL YOUR TEMPERAMENTS ARE TRASH AND I'M THE ONLY ONE THAT'S CALM!!!
    Lester: Mr. Trump, your head is now literally a giant red steam whistle.
    Trump: ... My microphone isn't working.

  • What can I say, he's smarter than the a-ver-age медведь!

  • What is your favorite music streaming service?
  • I didn't even know that... Dang, now I miss it even more

  • What is your favorite music streaming service?
  • It was super smart with offline streaming too, queuing up the smart downloads when you had no connection and requeuing your original mix when the connection returns. I relied on that for road trips and nothing comes close in functionality.

  • What is your favorite music streaming service?
  • Jellyfin 😎
    I used to use Google Play Music for years but when they shut down YouTube Music has always been garbage by comparison. I just pirate the music I like and donate occasionally to artists I like.

  • NSFW
    If you kiss them, you will have luck all week! 😉 (OC)
  • Why, you'd be morally irresponsible not to participate in the local customs! You'll destroy their entire social structure!!

  • I fell for it. Fuckin' SteelSeries
  • SteelSeries always seemed like the new-age version of Corsair. I used to have Corsair everything and got disillusioned with the build quality and software functionality loss over the years, and when SteelSeries came into play I watched some of my friends do the exact same dive. It seemed like they were a decently priced, decent quality peripherals brand when they started, but now it seems like they shared the same fate. I'm definitely done with brand loyalty, and I trust what I build more than anything I buy.

  • It’s Surprisingly Easy to Live Without an Amazon Prime Subscription
  • This is the reason I hemmed over my subscription for a few years, and after they announced they were adding ads to Prime Video, that was the final straw. I've ordered maybe 1 or 2 things without a subscription since, but I'm really happy with how much I'm able to get much faster and better elsewhere.

  • The 2nd Unofficial Legend of Zelda Cookbook

    I got my hands on a Master Edition of the first book years ago and fell in love with it! I'm super excited for this. What are some TOTK recipes that you guys would want to see?

    Surface Linux question

    I've already had lots of concerns about continuing to use windows, but recall and copilot in general send me reeling. I'd like to start migrating to Linux on both my machines, but right now it would be much easier to do so on my laptop than my main PC just yet.

    The main concern I have is that I've had rough times with drivers on laptops running Linux, so I want to assess the QoL of Linux on Surface. I've dug around already on reddit and lemmy and seen some mention of the Surface Linux drivers that exist, but I'm hoping to get a personal account of as close a scenario as mine would be.

    I'm big on KDE Neon, and I want to run it on my Surface Laptop Studio. Can anybody tell me if you've done the same or similar, and how is it? What's the most trouble you've run into?
