You don’t. Mandatory crunch produces a mediocre result and drives away your hired talent.


Now is a great time to invest some time and effort into offline hobbies, whether they be on your computer or otherwise. Limiting or eliminating your time online these days is just a straight net gain for your mental health, especially if you can fill that gap with some other fulfilling activity.
As soon as I see someone start a sentence with: “So I asked ChatGPT,” I know I can basically disregard whatever it is they’re about to say.
It is incredible how well this works and how well it has worked for hundreds of years.


Alec out there fighting the good fight for us.


Not that I’d ever buy it, but I’m looking forward to the price tag so I can have a good laugh.


Microsoft has gone all-in on AI to the detriment of basically every other aspect of their business. They are in deep deep shit when the bubble finally pops.


I remember when this garbage used to be called malware.


Paradox really needs a management shakeup.


So glad I switched email and calender services years ago.


We can add this to the extensive list of times that we’ve assumed Russia’s military capabilities only for them to turn out to be wet farts.


Tea.
That smell of a freshly opened container of black tea leaves is lovely.


Nintendo and Sega’s IP. I did not grow up with them and have never seen the appeal or hype around them.


I’m with Posteo.


I am open to the idea of paying for quality services that put the customer first. Hell, I pay for my email and have done so for years.
But Kagi has always squicked me out a bit. Some of their business practices over the years have been rather questionable, especially their push into AI which is exactly the sort of thing someone looking at Kagi would probably want to avoid. They are also very expensive. They’re one of those services that just assumes everyone is American so they just give a $ cost and don’t specify beyond that, so I’m going to assume their prices are in USD which means a plan for my dad and myself is $21CAD a month. That absurdly overpriced for a search engine subscription.
To put that into perspective: A YouTube premium family plan covers up to 6 accounts and is the same price and includes unlimited video and music streaming. Thoughts about YouTube aside and looking at this from a pure value perspective, paying that same price just for a search engine is a godawful shit deal. Do you know what my email costs per month? $1.25CAD


The TES series in general for its massive, expansive lore.
But Morrowind in particular has absolutely incredible world-building with incredible creativity and originality. There is a reason why so many people keep going back to the n’wah simulator and it’s because the world is so rich and fleshed out. So much of the following games was built off Morrowind’s stunning work.


They need lifetimes in prison for treason and domestic terrorism.


The 1080p for premium users is garbage too. Youtube’s video quality in general is shockingly poor. If there is even a slight amount of noisy movement on screen (foliage, confetti, rain, snow, etc) the the video can literally become unwatchable.
Often the people that buy those tiers of computers don’t know enough about memory to know how limited they’d be.
