I tried slot machines in Vegas. Even themed ones for properties like Back to the Future were the single most boring experience I've ever had.
You'd think they would see mobile games and come up with a fun way to lose money, but they are just a chore.
I cannot conceive how people sit at those things. At least poker is a fun game. Never played it for money though.
Any idea if mass carbon capture could undo runaway venus-like greenhouse effects? I have no hope that humanity will put up with even minor inconveniences until lead starts melting at room temperature at the equator. It would give me hope if there was a way to undo runaway greenhouse processes.
Yep. I wasted so much time learning Fusion and getting it to work under Linux. Writing code is so much easier.
Everyone is wrong. OpenSCAD is so much better than anything else. It's so much easier to just write code. I regret wasting so much time learning Fusion.
AI has plenty of good uses. It's not all negative. But, I think the negatives probably outweigh the positives. So much slop.
If there ever was an example of Pandora's box, AI is it.
This is why cafepress exists.
Remember that woman who was arrested because her phone indicated she was at a house that was burgled at exactly that time? Police just do a dragnet. Turns out she just drove by the house as it was happening.
In the above example, imagine someone did an anti Israel terror attack in the area. Everyone mentioning such things will be found via dragnet searches and who knows if you just happen to have been nearby when it happened while also making suspicios SMS messages.
Dragnets are profoundly likely to catch innocent people. Protect yourself from them however you can. That should be in everyone's threat model.
I personally find it easier to use a separate browser for anything I don't need to be logged in for. It deletes all cookies when closed. No need to trust the untrustworthy.
I assume Valentine's Day.
I don't think so? Just looked up the definition of a parasite and it needs to live at the expense of the host. Gut bacteria are beneficial I assume, so they aren't parasitic.
In highschool I bought $20 in raffle tickets and won a $120 mini fridge that I used throughout college. I would get happy feelings when looking at that fridge for years.
Only positive feelings I ever got from gambling.
