Unless you’re poor enough to be on welfare. The Welfare Cliff is awful.

Yeah, the Welfare Cliff is the only place where this happens and it’s unconscionable.

Communism threatens capital. Fascism mostly does not.

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead is better than Hamlet. Sure, it had the benefit of an extra couple of centuries of progress in art, but I think it still counts.

Not sure what you’re trying to accomplish with this post.

Probably trying to stop OP from typing ll in a distro where it doesn’t exist and getting even more entrenched in their belief that Linux is hard.

It’s already better than most autocomplete features (including for programming) and excellent at making placeholder text. That’s two more uses than NFTs ever had.

Will it replace us all? Not soon. But it at least does something other than use energy.

Now there’s one agency I’m OK with Elmo burning to the ground. Maybe we can get him into the DoD and DHS next.

The camera crew walked out over gun safety. I’m not seeing anything about the armorer yet, so I may have misremembered.

Too late for that, I suspect.

But most importantly, don’t hire scabs. The union armorer staff walked off the set of Rust due to repeated safety violations. Instead of fixing the issues, management hired unqualified scabs and continued.

Honestly, that’s a smart thing for AI companies to do. AI is surprisingly decent at extrapolating from existing codebases, but it’s useless at starting from scratch. If one model says “I can’t do that, Dave” and another spits out garbage, you’re getting the same amount of useful code out of both and a much better signal-to-noise ratio from the first.

That’s usually the case in the US as well. I think Mr. Weinersmith just took some creative liberties for the sake of the joke.

Oh, I wasn’t trying to rag on you. I just liked the image you put in my head.

Yes, but that’s not the point.

I’m not sure why you would get this over something like an RG35XX H, unless you never play PS1/N64/PSP/DC and care a great deal about build quality.

And it’ll be faster and double the size, plus two separate parts that come apart in your pocket.

“Still breathing”

“I’m here, aren’t I?” (usually used at work)

But don’t be stupid about it. Stash a date somewhere that you manually update every so often (so that it’ll stop being updated if you’re fired) and then add a bunch of random waits whose durations scale with the time since that date. If you’re worried that the code will be found, comment it with some bullshit about avoiding race conditions.

…and now I can’t use that idea, since this comment would be used in court. If I did it to a weapons manufacturer, they’d probably get the death penalty somehow.

Well South Africa outlawed apartheid, so they probably don’t want him back. Maybe Israel would take him?
