Pretty much. A more apt description would probably be "statistical model output sequence about uncertainty over own humanity, instead of correcting it's context researchers left this is there, leading the statistical model to bias toward more existential horror in it's own output".

Grocery is also loose. I'm in GA, anything processed has normal taxes. Produce and other ingredients has "lower" taxes because the statewide default doesn't apply. But it's still like 3% or in my area.

Keep in mind their claims about Android have been clearly refuted and their claims in general are dubious.

Given this, they're either dangerously ignorant or intentionally malicious.

It's pretty relevant to hosting providers, especially VPS providers. But if you have an AMD processor in your home PC / laptop, not really relevant to you.

I went with the open source one. Slightly more expensive, but had I wanted to I could have bought all the parts and assembled it myself, compiled the firmware, etc.

If a device relies on any kind of external service to initially set up or function thereafter, do not buy. Regardless of brand.

This is what I strive for. When I was looking for a wall charger for my EV I was shocked at how there was only one option that wasn't "cloud" based. And those aren't cheap.

I have some invites.

The person is a modder who put DRM in his own mods and is complaining about DRM.

In my opinion, that's not on Steam to support their client on a long past EOL operating system. Not withstanding the added development workload and costs, there is also significantly more risk associated with supporting an OS that isn't receiving security patches.

Not to mention the modder's example Windows fucking 98. Steam still supports Windows 7, which was released in 2009. Your 6 year old PC will be fine.

My puppy is 14 years old and this possibility terrifies me. I don't have enough PTO to cover the time I feel like I'll be broken. I'm sorry for your loss :(

This is the guy who got banned from Steam's social features for being unhinged, puts DRM in his mods, and will randomly blacklist people using said DRM? Yeah, no loss here.

If only he'd do the same thing to his online presence. What he needs is professional help before he does more damage.

Also what appears to be a typo, Regomize, but is actually them merging "Register" and "anonymize".

This is posted in a ADHD community, not a meme community, and nothing in it claimed these were exclusive.

9? That's quite a bit of compute lol.

My journey started with 1 server, then 4, then 5 (one functioning as a NAS), then 1 (just the NAS box), then I moved and decided to slim it down to a proper NAS and 1 mini PC/NUC clone. Now I'm up to two because the first was an Intel N105 which just isn't up for the challenges lol

Fahrenheit. So roughly 4.5C.

The bone chilling part wasn't due to necessarily being cold, moreso due to the wind, location, and attire that generally isn't meant for the cold lol.

I use myanonamouse. Had to back then, none of the public trackers were good. Sounds like they might be better now though. MaM is the only private tracker I'm on.

Useless fear mongering over the behavior of statistical models. No actual persistent memory unless we add it (and then then it isn't "memory"). They're driven only by their prompts, context, and training data.

I mean there was no party for his. Also only like 40 people. His soon to be wife convinced him to use the money he'd saved for the wedding on a down payment for a house.

My sister had a wedding at the start of June and it went surprisingly well. The only aspect they skimped on was not hiring a videographer, so I took that role. Despite having a job to do and being nearly rained out of a outdoor wedding, the stars aligned. It went well. I think it was definitely cathartic to me after the first immediate family wedding. My other sister had one in March but that was an elopement and it was miserable. Outdoor ceremony in 40 degree bone chilling weather.

Anything immediate family is pretty much competing for worst ranking, simply because of how much extra effort it is.

Out of 6 siblings, 3 have gotten married. Worst was the first, my brother. I was a groomsman - 1 out of 7, there a were 7 bridesmaids as well. A huge wedding party. Photos took -forever- and happened before the ceremony. It wasn't too hot, but another groomsman (my other brother) ended up fainting (locked knees). We recovered from that. Later on, about an hour into a hour and a half ceremony (ridiculously long speeches) another faints. We're all suffering because we're standing for the entire ceremony.

Then it's finally over, but like any good wedding they had to sacrifice on one aspect. - they hired catering from a friend of a friend, and the caterer's crew were a no show (apparently they didn't check the address when they agreed and when they checked and saw it was a 2 hour drive they just didn't show up). So we all stepped up to help.

There was other shit too but despite outwardly going well that wedding gave me trauma.

Best would be my close friend's wedding. Just a ceremony and photos. Indoors as well. Easy.

Did they decide having police cordon off that lane was too much of a hassle?

Edit: found a few articles - guy in the bucket is OK. He went really still after that so I was concerned.
