Because medicine employs a little technique called "ethics," and there's a strong ethical argument for restricting AI to research purposes only and completely outlawing any practical deployments, at least until the implications are fully understood.

AI may very well be the nuclear WMDs of our time, and we're letting everyone play with it like a high school chemistry set.

My dumb autistic ass be all like

My laptop is about 10 years old and has the Optimus dual nVidia/Intel GPU's, plus a DisplayLink adapter.

Not as rare as you might think ×(

There is a sex scene, and yeah, it actually contributes to the plot of the film.

I'm not surprised. Nolan does not permit for a single superfluous moment in anything he creates.

I haven't seen it yet, but based on what I've read, probably Florence Pugh's.

I usually try Ubuntu Mate because I figure it's the most "normie" distro and should have good general hardware compatibility. I last tried it probably a year or two ago. It's been many years since I used Wine, but my lasting memory of it is that it's super clunky and buggy.

Control panel is always still there if you want the classic style settings.

Not really. A lot of it has been neutered. Updates were moved to the settings "app" in 10. Now you can't even manage printers without that stupid app in 11.

I think I have replacements, equivalents, or Linux versions for most of my software, it's mainly the graphics drivers that suck with multiple displays. It constantly forgets the layout or leaves one of the displays inaccessible or just blank.

I also use DisplayLink for one of my monitors. I can't remember if that even worked at all.

If that could finally be fixed, it might push me to Linux.

Windows 12

Oh god, have they made another one already?

Of course not, but a well-developed deepfake is so robust that you can shorten or lengthen the dialog and rate of speech and it has no problem compensating.

You know what, I think AI/deepfakes could have a legitimate use in generating fully realistic dubs, provided the appropriate parties are compensated fairly. It must be annoying as hell seeing English-language movies clumsily dubbed over with mismatched voices and completely out of sync lip movements.

Is it? I still have yet to try a distro that works properly with multiple monitors and supports all the software I have.

Well, would you look at that, it's playing out exactly the same as every other technological advancement ever. Instead of using it to reduce employee workloads and maintain an equilibrium of output, it exploits them by brute-forcing increased productivity with no changes to compensation and the capitalists hoard even more of the profits for themselves.

Windows 11 is just Windows 10 with rounded corners, shittier menus, and even more spyware.

You just can't ignore the rate of prevelance like it's nothing.

Yes, gold diggers have more-or-less always been around, but they used to be uncommon and the butt of jokes. Now they're mainstream and celebrated.

It's better to run your own server anyway, and it's pretty easy to setup if you have tech experience.

Absolutely. Use an efficient disk imager that can take incremental snapshots and you can keep backups for months or years without needing a ton of storage.
