Seconded. Not disguising plant protein as animal is the key.

Try changing your dynamic. The human brain thrives on novelty.

Play genres you normally wouldn’t – e.g: Hate horror games? Good - try out Silent Hill or some classics you skipped over.

Get a VR headset, go from 2D screen to proper full body 3D - fly a plane over the Andes, feel like you’re actually flying. Pilot a huge mech. Build a colony on Mars with your own two hands.

Burnout happens and it’s worth examining other areas in your life, but gaming’s always been the wondrous thing it always has.

Fucking THANK YOU, for elucidating this so cleanly into a two paragraphs.

The wandering shell shock on Lemmy for a week was miserable to witness.

Decent meme

If you ask about gender in death, people will just look at you weird.

There’s compounding evidence that a lot of religious canon was simply written by mankind as a kind of societal control.

The living should be kinder to one another.

I think this is the best post I’ve seen on Lemmy

Based on what I’ve witnessed so far, people will play with their AGI units for a bit and then put them down to continue scrolling memes.

Which means it is neither awesome, nor world-ending, but just boring/business as usual.

Plastic in clothes is bad for you, not just the environment

Microplastics apparently do infiltrate through the skin

We have… done bad things with our world.

I’m sure people can handle a few alligators and mosquitos spilling out of the portal

I’m in the Top 10% of players in my league, but I’ll never be in the Top 1%.

Why? Because everyone there is either cheating or on something.

Caffeine is legal and not banned by most sporting jurisdictions, so if that’s the only thing you can take to enhance performance – you take it.

With a caffeine addiction, I can skirt Top 6% and lie to myself that I deserve that position.

Good – is it $10,000 now instead of only $5,000?

Lemmy has its own memes haha

Making pizzas in slave-like conditions

“Mmmh, this sure beats pressing fast forward for 8 hours in single player”

I live in NYC, and I read this story yesterday, and they didn’t shoot the guy for hopping the turnstile / not paying the $2.90, they chased him and tried to give him a $100-150 fine; but the guy lunged at them with a knife.

The cops panicked and began firing because they don’t have H2H training, and their aim is obviously shit. It’s so shit, that I think they missed their taser shot as well before hitting random people in the crowd with their sidearms.

Not defending the police but the meme’s a gross oversimplification. Those guys need more training and probably a suspension until they finish a full course of training, or a dismissal (or perhaps even up to and including manslaughter charges) depending on if the bystanders live or not.

I wish shit like this wasn’t as common as it is. So many innocent people and dogs die each month due to police incompetence.

It’s obvious that this question was written by a child or someone learning the English language, given your spelling mistakes, grammar use and references, however:

ELI5:

The answer is yes, we can have “good AI” like JARVIS, but AI is still early and doesn’t make money for companies.

Companies make money selling a product, and AI isn’t a product because it isn’t something that belongs to them. So they sell people’s information that they get when people talk to the AI.

But that doesn’t make enough money to pay the bills for AI, so they charge subscriptions. People who pay the subscriptions want to use the AI “for evil”, as you put it.

So in the end it’s about “making money” with the AI, and JARVIS does not make them money.

If you learn a lot about computers, you’ll have your own JARVIS. I have one. It takes dedication, like anything else in life. Good luck with your school project.

Damn. Really? I guess I’m lucky. I specifically avoided watching Deep Space 9 as a kid because TNG was on.

I’ll live your dream for your buddy; I heard the show’s about a non-moving ship, which still has a captain for some reason, Benjamin Sisko or something

I’ve been laughing at this quote for 5 minutes straight

It’s so good

He knows he’s right

Also: I code sometimes, and all of my code is of masterpiece quality. I cannot debug my own code, I ask for outside help and we have to dismantle the NT kernel to find out what’s gone wrong

Given your vast experience and that your distro quest is over – what did you settle on?

Sincerely, Win10+Kubuntu user
