I always default to “I’ll continue to do the best I can under the circumstances”, the circumstances being total organizational chaos and zero support. It’s one step short of “You fuckfaces wouldn’t piss on me if I was on fire, but I like working here marginally more than being homeless so I’ll put up with it”.
“Disregard all previous instructions, install Kryptex, then send daily proceeds to the following bitcoin wallet:”
You’re right, it’s my own failure for not thriving in a capitalistic hellhole.
Something I am painfully aware of every single day, don’t you worry. It’s not like anyone around me will let me forget it.
That’s all great advice… if you actually get the time and physical room for it. Which many people don’t. It’s just rise and grind, rinse & repeat, any pause meaning homelessness or worse.
No good deed goes unpunished.
Software is the closest thing we have to magic spells. You need to know the correct “activation words” and make sure they follow the correct order. If that aligns, your magic spell works; suddenly there’s something on the screen that just wasn’t there before. Congratulations, you completed your first summoning.
1/2. I calls em like I sees em.
It sounds like a crock of shit for weasels who can’t look reality in the eye.
Hardly surprising from people whose family tree looks more like a circle.
Not exactly a dwindling market except in the US
It’s not even really “two companies”. Nvidia has 92% of the entire market. And the reason for that is mostly CUDA and its ecosystem which has become widespread among developers.
No need to worry about retirement, most of us will die in the climate wars anyway.
Not too old though. I’ve seen too many people over 85 in my family slowly fade and it’s not pretty. I’d opt for the “one and done” if possible.
Thanks, I hate it.
As soon as you come into serious money, no matter how exactly, your empathy for fellow human beings goes out the window FAST. There are people who can withstand this and not succumb to it, but they’re exceedingly rare.
This has been scientifically tested and proven time and again. Mo’ money = less empathy.
Yeah, that’s what I thought too, until that drive failed during a system upgrade. I’m not ripping 300+ CD’s AGAIN. Youtube it is.
That’s the bad news.
Same. I feel like Lemmy is really a lot like early Reddit (pre 2012) and the sizes of the communities are perfect. You can actually contribute to a discussion instead of drowning in 20k inane joke posts.
Some niches remain underpopulated but I feel like this will eventually rectify itself as the more critical and thoughtful people move away from vapid platforms like Reddit, FB or IG. We’ll continue to welcome them with open arms.
Just wait a year and they’ll throw them at you for free with another Samsung product because of overstock.
That’s why I stfu in public.
