For work, we got some of the HP AI Ryzen Max 390 laptops with 64 gigs of soldered on 8000 MHz DDR5 memory, and holy shit, I have never felt such a snappy, responsive computer.

Like the comparison between my laptop with the 13950X and 64 gigs of memory at 4800 megahertz and this Ryzen ai 390 feels very much like when we first started getting SSDs and making the transition from spinning rust to SSD.

And I know that a huge portion of that is due to the fact that the ram is twice as fast. But still, it is simply snappy. It’s nice, and it makes me jealous that these are not computers for me, but for someone else.

Kind of funny to think about if Jesus learned English through prayers, so he assumes that “Please let me win the lottery” translates to, “Hi, how are you doing?”

Facebook: makes a system where the only way to get engagement is to hatepost.

People on facebook: hateposts

People: “How could this happen?”

I bet most of them are affiliated with a Christian church of some variety, at least 60%

I didn’t mind it at all, but I had decent hardware, which apparently made all of the difference.

The trolley is still relevant because if you don’t step into the transporter, people die. If you do, there’s a good chance some version of you dies, but some version of you survives. So is the current version of you more valuable than the lives of the people on the track?

There was a movie about it called The Prestige.

I think the real argument or concern behind this is, do we have a soul?

If not, then yes, stepping into a transporter means that you die, and that some other version of you continues on, but that doesn’t matter because nothing was actually lost.

If we do have a soul, then the question becomes, does your soul survive the transport?

If it does, then it’s no worries, it’s just a means of transportation.

But if it doesn’t, then does the version of you that pops out of the other side have a brand new soul, or is it now soulless?

And finally, how could we ever tell?

I’m willing to die to save people, so if some version of me actually gets to survive it, with there being a chance that it is me, then there’s no reason for me not to do it.

What is a sissy hypno mode?

The rape is off camera and downplayed immensely, but 8t does happen from an objective viewpoint

I’ve read one where the guy basically had Minecraft powers and so he built a wall and then destroyed the supporting blocks and the wall stayed floating in air.

It had the potential to be pretty interesting, but it quickly turned into a monster girl harem manga.

Not that there’s anything wrong with that in and of itself, but I gave up on it when the lead heroine used sleep magic so that the average japanese man MC could be raped by a bunch of harpies.

There was also a disturbing amount of butt stuff forced on the MC. Kinda weird all in all.

Yep, I was literally coming in to say that Skype was trashed the instant Microsoft bought it.

Yeah, and?

Do you honestly believe there’s a single person on lemmy with enough gravitas to be worth being tracked by the elite?

Also money, which are just political points in tangible/fungible format

Long story short, people that use it get really used to using it.

I wouldn’t necessarily trust that. I have used Xfinity for a long time and my IP address often went months without changing.

If I want to scream into the void, I can do that anywhere and anytime, and I do not need a web server to do it.

To quote Ariel, I want to be where the people are.

Just so that I get this out while it’s fresh on my mind, what’s wrong with the internet right now is cyberfeudalism.

The internet is essentially an infinite world, so no matter how much the large companies gobble up, we’ll always be able to go somewhere else.

That being said, it gets really fucking exhausting to move over and over again to different apps and different locations just so to talk to people without some greedy, megalithic corporation there, snooping on everything you say and ingesting your words to feed some abomination intelligence simulation or to figure out the best way to sell you a new pair of fucking socks.

All of that being said, I’m just saying it fucking sucks to continuously be a refugee, and what sucks about apps and companies and programs that end up selling out for a dollar is that if you don’t emmigrate to a new platform, you become nothing.

The word trans means across, or on the other side, and gress once again would mean step, so to transgress is basically to cross the line, right?

I did a quick search, but there isn’t really a word to describe the people that don’t cross the line.

The opposite of the prefix trans is the prefix cis, which means “on the same side”
