Liza Broke Ass Bitch

Yeah. That worked last time

My guess on #2 is Europe is increasing posturing against Russia as they continue to escalate the situation in Ukraine, so this accomplishes:

• signaling to Russia that the UK is not a passive nation
• Will be popular with the mid to late life Midlands voters who don't really have anything to be proud of in their life other than "we used to be an empire", without having to actually shoulder the burden.
• Will be unpopular among the 18-35 year old voters, who are historically the lowest turnout demographic, and will actually have to shoulder the burden.

For what it's worth, I actually think forced conscription (with alternatives) is actually an idea that can work well and help build a better more cohesive society where all people despite their differences participate in their "citizenly duties", but it has to be done right: military service can be an option, as well as community service in things like fire departments, Emergency medical services, even working in government services like the NHS or community centers that have options for mentor programs, etc. Basically anything that teaches young adults to give back to their community which can hopefully turn into a lifelong habit. But you can't start the policy as some bullshit military posturing. It has to come from a place of "we're doing this to make our community better". Also, you can't make day 1 implementation only start with the current young adult generation and have everyone older than them grandfathered out. EVERYONE shoulders this. Anyone voting for it needs to know they're all going to be participating in this (pro-rated based on age up to 65 or 70, but still those above should be encouraged to participate despite no obligation). But that probably sounds like communism or something.

Yeah. When I'm looking for information on how something works or a problem I need to solve (which usually ends up with a Wikipedia or Reddit result being what I need) it's usually one of the first three (non sponsored) results. But if I'm looking for a new light weight breathable rain coat? Awful experience

I don't think it's possible to do half way between 4 and 5. 4 is hugging around the arms, 5 is hugging under the arms.

Yeah I was a Gentoo user a long time ago so when I finally installed Arch I had a little mental note in the back of my head to update every week unless I wanted to sort out things I shouldn't have to sort out.

And my... hang on, I just need to apply this tweak from the wiki...

And my axe!

The problem with AI isn't that it's not smart enough. The problem is it's trained on data generated by humanity, which is mostly composed of idiots.

I guess for some people the dumber you are the more impressed you are with your own ability to fool a child. Probably because that's the last stage of their child's life where they can still pretend to be smarter....

Yep. Probably the best thing you'll do all month.

Close but not exactly. Windows 5 was 2000, Windows 5.1 was Windows XP.

But it's more confusing than that because of the two different lines: the MS-DOS based line which covered Windows 1.0 through ME, and the multi-user NT line for workstations and servers which adopted the same version numbers as the currently released MS-DOS line that was available at the same time. I.E. windows NT 3.1 used the windows 3.1 UI from the DOS line, but was New-Technology instead of DOS under the hood. NT4 used the DOS based win95 UI, and NT5 was Windows 2000 also with the familiar Windows 9x UI. Everything since XP has been exclusively NT under the hood.

Great stuff. Thanks!

Thanks, yeah I'll probably pick it up at a big discount to load up on the steam deck and put a couple hours into.

Thanks. That matches up with what I had heard in passing bout it.

Might be worth a couple hours if I've got nothing else going on I guess.

Yeah, the difference in distributions is that even though there's a fix on the Arch wiki that solves the Debian issue, Debian shouldn't have released the update in the first place.

Minors are people. It knows what clothed people of all ages look like. It also knows what naked adults look like. The whole point of AI is that it can fill in the gaps and create something it wasn't trained on. Naked + child is just a simple equation for it to solve

Do you need to run the Intel cards with an Intel CPU to get the quick sync benefits? I upgraded my desktop last year and am going to convert my old Ryzen 5600x system to ... something. Not sure what yet though. Just working on my options.

No, but if they dared me LET'S FUCKIN GO BOYS! FULL SEND!!

Anyone played this? I've had it on my steam wishlist for a few years but never got around to it

The real answer?

Data is transmitted in packets. Each packet has a packet header, and a packet payload. The total data transmitted is the header + payload.

If you're transmitting smaller packet sizes, it means your header is a larger percentage of the total packet size.

Measuring in megabits is the ISP telling you "look, your connection is good for X amount of data. How you choose to use that data is up to you. If you want more of it going to your packet headers instead of your payload, fine." A bit is a bit is a bit to your ISP.
