I'm not mad, I just think it's boring. LLMs already have regurgitated speech sounding garbage bereft of meaning covered. Humans can be so much more rich and interesting.

You live in one of the most remote, populated places. Like obviously things are different.
Also redbacks aren't generally lethal without an allergic reaction. Hurts like hell though!
You're talking about my daughter here. Tread softly.
Please, I am begging you. Say something that hasn't been prepackaged for you?
Not anywhere near built up areas... there's one, the brown snake. he's a bit ornery but he'll leave you be almost all the time if you make some noise while walking and fatalities are ~2 a year and mostly in highly remote areas... don't walk in the tide pools without shoes on? you'll cut your foot on oysters at the best of times silly... just leave random critters in tide pools alone? it's not like they seek you out or attack you while you swim... yeah boxies are a nuance but only at the far north at certain times of year, you can swim when they're not around... never heard of them so they can't be that bad... what are you doing? naked bush bashing in FNQ? fucking relax, it's a random poisoned tree in some of the most remote regions of australia. Not like you'll get stung in any tourist region lmao... are you in the habit of disturbing bats? they fly up in the sky yo, just don't try ambush some sleeping bats? are you afraid of licking pidgeons or something?... white tails are not harmful https://www.australiangeographic.com.au/topics/wildlife/2017/04/the-truth-about-white-tail-spiders/ and like all spiders you have to really really try to get bitten. You can handle them and they'll leave you alone... again are you naked bush bashing in FNQ? haha do you think our major cities are plagued by jungle fevers you idiot...
I'm 3 rats in a trenchcoat
Come visit, if you come to the blue mountains hit me up and I'll take you on some more local knowledge bushwalks.
I hate our culture but I love the land and its slowtime history
Sorry, could you be a little more explicit in terms of how you're answering my questions? I don't really want to get drawn in to some aimless rambling bullshit.
I haven't mentioned tribalism, I don't even know what you're referring to or why you're bringing it up.
I don't know what you mean by how society is these days. Are you saying society has changed fundamental human nature? what is the relevance please?
With an authority or controlling wealth, everything results in an elite of some form to try keep a system in place, and that's the start of failure.
you're talking to an anarchist so I have no disagreement there. I do wonder if you've ever read Marx though. Could you please honestly answer with what publications of his you've actually read? if none, what publications about Marxism have you read? if that list is exhaustive the three most recent?
If a village of 100 has just 1 asshole, things can be ruined. Scale up to global populations and you've got your answer. No ism can keep the psychopathic, narcissistic, or competitive nature of these people from ruining whatever ism it is you'd like to have.
???
Oh can we stop this? we have no large land predators. Indeed Australia is so peaceful as to give rise to the quokka that fearlessly approaches humans.
Sure if you piss off a kangaroo or deliberately antagonise a spider you might get hurt but you'd have to really really try and odds are you would just get fixed up in hospital.
This land is peaceful, it's inhabitants kind (well, except the humans, the English really did a number).
But they also became the noble greyhound
I don't follow sorry. Could you explain?
I was just making a silly joke and also trying to point out that genetic memory red in tooth and claw stuff is fucking weird.
So there's a very big difference between X hasn't happened yet and X is factually impossible. Imagine standing there in 1750s and saying "we know for a fact that the human species is fundamentally incompatible with flight". Very shortly you would look like the complete arse that making that statement made you.
I don't dispute nobody has achieved the utopia Marx hypothesised, that is trivial to demonstrate, I'm asking how on earth you would establish fundamental incompatibility.
Actually the current prevailing theory is that primitive communism was the state humans lived in before the founding of the first proto states, so if anything your stance should be that evidence suggests humans are fundamentally compatible with communism, unless you mean to argue we have undergone some shift in our fundamental nature in which case I would again ask where your evidence is.
But what we know for fact is that the human species is incompatible with communism
Sorry what? How on earth would such a thing even be established as fact? This is a very bold claim.
Communism has failed every time.
I'm always really interested in what people mean when they say this. Is it that no organisation that has tried has managed to realise the utopia Marx predicted? Is it that they tend to lose wars with the USA? Is it that great suffering has occurred?
What is a system that has not failed? Like it's pretty apparent whatever we're doing now isn't working. We're in a mass extinction, the climate is destabilising, homelessness and sickness exist alongside people that personally own jet aircraft.
Genuinely I would love to know what specifically you mean because I see this a lot and it confuses the hell out of me.
Hopeful aside btw. Lord of the flies basically happened once except the kids all banded together and helped each other because humans are actually extremely pro social. https://www.theguardian.com/books/2020/may/09/the-real-lord-of-the-flies-what-happened-when-six-boys-were-shipwrecked-for-15-months
whimper was a dovecot and postfix machine. Email isn't very fun
I don't have many now, just minstrel (it plays music) but previously they've always just be sounds. Rawr, groan, whimper, bark, moan, growl etc.
Except minstrel (it plays music) :p
Weird, I suppose you could also VM it but it tends to have a performance hit without optimised hardware. I wonder how they check the environment it runs in and if you can just lie to the checks.
Which ones don't? I don't play many MP games but non of the ones I have played have issues. Easy anticheat works for example, and you can run it in ring 3 and lie which is nice.
Basically every steam game just works, most other stuff just works with lutris, all retroarch emulators I've tried just work, there are obviously oodles of native linux games particularly Indies. Nvidia drivers mostly just work if you install proprietary (blurgh).
What doesn't work?
Kingsford-Smith backs onto water, sometimes the planes are tired and they try land a little early...
