even a 5600 would be a massive leap for about $100. Add something like a used 6600XT or a 3060 and you’ll be back at current gen gaming at around $300€ total.

if you pay for a thing it’s pretty hard to avoid giving a cut to amazon these days.

HR had some bug in their system and I got about two extra weeks (7 total) for a few years, but I didn’t complain about the bug.

It can definitely be surprising to realize how much AI contributes to today’s content, but it’s become a powerful tool in many industries. From writing articles and generating art to customer service and personalized recommendations, AI helps create and enhance a lot of what we interact with daily. It’s not just about replacing human effort but often about assisting and enhancing creativity and productivity. The growth of AI is a reflection of how technology is evolving to meet the demands of our fast-paced world.

Linux is second nature to us IT people, so it’s easy to forget that the average person probably only knows basic shell scripting and how to build programs from git repos.

You don’t have to compile your own kernels you know that right?

Hmm worth a try. Seems it has a higher oral BA than e.g. ketamine.

Do you smoke PCP?

cat pipeing is safer though.

ketamine?

I wouldn’t pay the premium to be a beta tester for Qualcomm for the new Snapdragons. They’ll be cheaper, have better drivers and more laptops to choose from in a couple of years.

There’s a saying here which roughly translated goes:

“You eat the bread of whose songs you sing.”

Our previous CTO left by saying “I have enough money now. Peace out!”

You don’t have to pay to your employer as an unpaid intern.

The new Snapdragon laptops are getting 15h+ of battery life, which is a couple of hours less than the new Macs (macs have bigger batteries) in the same benchmarks. The next gen Ryzen AI 300 Omnibook is said to have 20h+… but why do people want so much out of their battery? I’ve only used laptops for work and I can’t remember being more than a couple of hours at a time outside a dock.

Would the gangs of criminals be so brazen that they’d break the law and be in a gang?

But in seriousness I know that legislation can make gang life difficult. E.g. the Yakuza is pretty much dead now after they changed a bunch of laws in Japan.

I admit that I work faster with AI help and if people get more stuff done in less time there might be less billable hours in the future for us. But AI did not replace me, a 10 times cheaper dude from India did.
