To me, Art is a catalyst for discussion, reflection, and expression.

So yes, I view internet trolling as a form of art. Maybe not capital A Art, but is it not the art of a sub culture? A way to catalyze discussion, debate, expression? A well crafted message that in often a hundred words or less that sparks endless debates and reactions?

Is the art the catalyst or the consequences?

Is the art the banana or my feelings about it?

To me I think its all art.

Leto certainly didn't help, but historically this is how this is supposed to go.

Its probably a parent company situation.

Lots of corpo structures are just large parent companies that actually just own a bunch of smaller companies so that the parent company gets the profits while the smaller companies make the risky products and can be bankrupted at any minute.

The company I work for does that. We just bought a couple companies that were competitors in a risky but profitable market. The full idea is that if one company gets sued to oblivion, we let that company die, move all the employees and customers to the backup company, and call it a day.

Capitalism baby!

Probably why they didn't do it in the first place.

They barely pay for moderation. Who is going to pay for that survey? And also why would they? Obviously most of the people on that site are under 18. That's when I used it.

What other demographic clicks the horny ads they run?

The classic

offers to recycle

actually installs esoteric Linux distros

Classic!

If not classes, some homie who's an ex combat vet who's not certified because they don't want to give the feds or the NRA any money.

I've paid the fascists for their classes and its nothing special. I can save you a Sunday and several Friday afternoons and at least $300 in training with these blog posts I wrote.

Do you fear technology

Oh yes! Greatly!

Windows

Ah, a different kind of fear was meant....

Since no one else answered

"Signs" (2002) by M. Night Shyamalan

AI

First of all, who has a security can on themselves like this.

The mouse has a weird fall path

The mouse also morphs

What's that flash at the end

Look, if those types of parents don't exist, then who will be future sales executives?

Lots of blue checks, AI Avis, and Trade + Crosses in usernames.

I wouldn't call that an official response.

A deeply concerning response from the CEO, but a forum response isn't the same as an announcement about policy change or something.

Im mad but I'm willing to give them time to grapple with the realities of the box they opened to see how they attempt to close it.

I would have been happy with a corpo

"We will be reviewing our philanthropic practices going forward."

With pure neutral tone and no mention of the politics.

That's the corpo correct answer. And its concerning they didn't give that.

No its about Framework, Right now, sponsoring fascists.

A 4060ti has been out long enough that you're fine with basically any main stream distro.

I think even the 50 series is fine now with most mainstream distros as well.

I still prefer arch based distros now for Nvidia cards and honestly, Fedora is great!

Yeah I'll join the Vin Diesel cult!

I actually don't even care about AI Ethics here.

Fuck Academic Dishonesty!

Look I love my mom.

But one of us has a therapist and a taste for new interesting foods. The other has anger issues when the food isnt Banquet Turkey in gravy with boxed mash potatoes.

I usually follow the craft computing video whenever I have to set it up. He has a document in the description with all the things you might need to passthrough a GPU but only like half are needed to passthrough an HBA

Proxmox wiki has a more concise guide IMO

It was really simple to do in Proxmox.

You will find no name brand HBAs in IT mode on eBay for half the price of Intel, Supermicro, Dell, Etc branded ones. Do not buy the no names. I spent a week flashing and reflashing some cheap one, cycling through cables, etc. Nothing.

My supermicro branded one worked absolutely no issue. And I think it was like $40

It probably took a total of 30 minutes to pass it through and build the VM and everything. It took a couple days to rebuild my data from my previous truenas server but I had 10 TB of data on 4 drives.

The only issues I've had have been my own reading comprehension in setting up truenas accounts.
