And have it’s teeth whitened

“A way out west there was this fella, fella I want to tell you about, fella by the name of Jeff Lebowski. At least, that was the handle his lovin' parents gave him, but he never had much use for it himself. This Lebowski, he called himself the Dude. Now, Dude, that's a name no one would self-apply where I come from. But then, there was a lot about the Dude that didn't make a whole lot of sense to me. And a lot about where he lived, like-wise. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place s'durned innarestin'.”

Exactly what I was thinking.

I wonder if there’s any chance Nintendo will remaster the other two Metroid Prime games before 4 launches

And AND it’s not as though we can expect another mainline Zelda game on launch day. Maybe Metroid Prime 4, sure, but that series has never moved units the way Zelda does (as much as I wish it did).

I agree with your assessment. That’s where I fall too. I’ve got a launch day Switch and an OLED Steam Deck. My Switch mostly gathers dust since I got the Deck.

You can. It’s incredibly generous of you to do that!

You’ll need to know his account number and where the payment gets sent. It might be difficult to get this information quietly though.

Usually you’d want to call the company that is servicing the loan and ask them to calculate a payoff amount as of a specific date. That way when you make your payment, all outstanding interest is paid off as well as the balance.

That company may not give you this information depending upon laws and policies. Since you’re not the person they’re contracted with for the loan, it’s possible that they won’t. I don’t expect that to be the case though.

I used to be a loan officer / underwriter, but I never dealt with student loans which have different laws governing them, so this is the best info I have to share (it’s also been 15 years since I did that work). I used to give payoff amounts all the time to other people and organizations though. People refinance their loans all the time, so it’s very common to give out that payoff calculation when the requester has the account number and name of the loan account holder.

Do you like sex, Mr. Lebowski? The physical act of love. Coitus. Do you like it?

I have an NES that just needs a simple fix. I keep saying that I’m going to get to it too.

The word itself makes some men uncomfortable. They don't like hearing it and find it difficult to say. Whereas without batting an eye a man will refer to his "dick" or his "rod" or his "Johnson".

I damaged the laser on a PS2 by using a DVD-RW. They’re harder to read than a normal disc apparently, so it wore the laser down pretty quick

I agree. It’s not a formula for guaranteed success though. See Super Mario Bros. for one example

She was a great public servant.

Does your stomach hurt?

The open source Decky plugin will continue to be supported alongside this new program.

I’ve had a fantastic experience with both the plugin and the people behind it. I think I’m going to pay for this new program when they release it even if it’s just to help support the open source plugin.

You have to defeat the entire lineup first

It’s not a matter of where it grips it! It’s a matter of weight ratios!

Wow that’s crazy. One sick day should not require a doctor’s note. I question the legality of that requirement.

It might surprise you to know that you’re not entitled to a free education from me. Your original query of “What’s the difference?” is what I responded to willingly. Your philosophical exploration of the nature of intelligence is not in the same ballpark.

I’ve done vibe coding too, enough to understand that the LLMs don’t think.

Then you should have an easier time than most learning more. Your points show a lack of understanding about the tech, and I don’t have the time to pick everything you said apart to try to convince you that LLMs do not have sentience.
