How come they don’t just use VLC?

I highly recommend getting a gaming laptop. You can buy a 4070 lenovo laptop at Walmart for $1k (at least in the US.)

Otherwise, check out https://old.reddit.com/r/LaptopDeals/ until you find something that fits your needs and budget. (sorry for linking to the other site)

You should use bluetooth controllers instead of ones that take a dongle simply because the dongle is unnecessary. Playstation controllers work well, but they’re expensive and I haven’t been able to find a 3rd party variant that works properly.

I also recommend getting a wireless keyboard + mouse combo.

Why?

🥱

Right about what?

Yeah, people say they don’t want AI driving cars while AI has better safety records than the average human.

People also fought back against having machinery to automate production.

You might want to look into the “Luddites.”

I hope you can admit you’re wrong when the time comes, but I genuinely expect you to just pretend you never stuck your neck out in the first place.

Correct.

It’s also why everyone needs a linkedin and to wear a suit. We have an environment where you’re not an attractive hire unless you can show you’ve ‘paid into the system.’

It’s fucked, and that’s by design. We need to start respecting people who are fighting back instead of shaming them.

Honestly, we’re having the same revolution for white-collar jobs that automation made for blue-collar ones.

Like with chess, we’re going to reach a point where AI isn’t just ‘as good as humans,’ but it will be many times superior to the point humans need to make their own competitions excluding AI in order for them to be fair.

The word ‘nazi’ has 100% lost its meaning.

Might as well just be saying “I don’t like this person or group of people because they disagree with me.”

Advertising should be illegal.

I agree.

I feel like the powers that b have people working overtime to ensure that most Western women feel like they need to consume to be accepted by their peers.

What’s particularly sad is it’s the exact opposite. That culture of consumption also comes with an aura of exclusivity. Most of these girls are miserable because they’ve been conditioned to consume as much as possible while thinking anyone who consumes less isn’t good enough for them.

It’s really good for putting them to work, not so good for making them or the people around them happy.
