Is anyone else really skeeved out by the term “wetware”, or is that just me

I’ve had a bunch of audio issues crop up for me as well, after upgrading to Pop 24.04 and the new cosmic DE. I used to have keyboard shortcuts that would reliabily switch from headphones to speakers, but those are hit or miss now. And when they miss, I have to go all the way into into alsamixer and unmute things until it works again. Which begs the question, why can’t the normal audio settings UI do everything alsamixer can? Alsamixer isn’t complicated, by any stretch. Literally just lets you adjust the volume of all the things on a particular audio card, and mute/unmute.

The Resident Evil games (at least the few I’ve watched/played) have an inventory management system where each item takes up a certain amount of space, and you have to organize it efficiently in order to maximize how much stuff you can carry.

Wow, that is controversial. Think of how inefficient that would be

Bloodmouths is a term that certain vegetarians/vegans use to refer to people that eat meat. I assume cheese-breathers is another term meant to refer to anyone who consumes any animal-based foods.

It’s a super common trope in Mormon offshoot cults at least, to believe you’ve been put here by god to bring about the end times. Of course those people always believe they’re “one of the good ones” that will be let into heaven when it’s all said and done. It’s honestly frightening how common this line on thinking is among Christians, how normalized it’s become.

I agree with you that these memes are a little silly, but I also agree with the overall point that it’s actually good that these games don’t run on Linux. It has nothing to do with my personal taste in these games though, and everything to do with privacy violations via kernel-level anticheats, and getting people addicted via dark patterns like microtransactions, gacha, and FOMO-inducing battlepasses.

It didn’t come off as nuance to me. Seemed more like you were providing an “um actually” semantic-wordplay type response, like you were striving for technically correct instead of just understanding the (pretty clear) implicit meaning in the comment you were replying to.

You’re disingenuously equating your full-size sedan and your crossover’s gas tanks and using that single piece of anecdotal (and completely unrelated) evidence to incorrectly imply that the drivers of sedans are going to suffer just as much as the dumbasses that still drive gas guzzlers.

Subcompact and compact cars generally have 8-10 gallon tanks, midsize cars generally have 10-14 gallon tanks, full size cars generally have 14-18 gallon tanks. The middle of that range is actually 13 gallons, so I was off a gallon. My b.

I like how you limited your data specifically to American sedans to fit your narrative though, despite neither of your cars being American, and despite American sedans not being even close to the top choice for sedan drivers, not even in America.

Sick flex, Tommy Two Cars

Average tank size for a sedan is like 12 gallons, btw. Imagine that, your experience isn’t representative of the whole. How mind blowing is that

it’s worth mentioning that being a decent christian should just require the knowledge of the important parts and certainly not the whole of it.

As soon as you can get the ~40,000 different denominations of Christianity to agree what “the important parts” are, which atrocities to heed, and which to ignore, you let us all know

That shit reads like a trust fund kid that somehow passed physics 101 then went and discovered weed for the first time

The difference in the swings in the other parks were that they were surrounded by rich people

Like which ones?

Please drink verification can, etc. etc.

Nah fuck your whataboutism. That’s how life works? Fuck that then, fuck that way of life, I applaud anyone trying to change that way of life, instead of trying to defend the shitty status quo. I will absolutely 100% look the other way for someone even being selfish, if it means they’re also hurting a capitalist.

It would be if the answer weren’t so obvious

Eh, these chatbots can do some wild things once their context window fills up, which is trivial to do if you’re talking to it for 10 fucking hours a day. If you try and reference something that has fallen out of its context window, it won’t just stop and tell you “I don’t remember what you’re talking about”, it’ll uhhh, fill in the gaps. Keep going long enough and the context window will be mostly hallucinations and hallucinations of hallucinations, all building on one another until it starts talking metaphysical mumbo jumbo at you and telling you where to meet your soulmate.

The sad part is these companies are banking on people getting addicted to their chatbot friends so that they pay money for subscriptions. Programming the chatbot to say “hey my context window is full, you should start a new conversation for better responses”, or better yet, forcing the conversation to end, goes directly against their profit motivations, so they’ll never implement that unless forced.

Dawg, Jesus’s weapon of choice is literally in the Bible, Matthew 10:34:

I have not come to bring (a) peace(maker) but a sword

Dude’s immortal, he’s not afraid to get up close and personal with it

We don’t call people pedophiles unless there’s evidence that they’ve abused children. I shouldn’t have to explain that. Playing these semantic word games makes it seem like you’re running defense for Ted Cruz, and I assure you he does not deserve that from you.
