The fantastic animated show, Pantheon explores that very idea at the very end of its second and final season.

Given a long enough time frame, the vast majority of an immortal life would be spent buried beneath something or floating in the void of space. Think about it, you outlast planets and stars. When those go dark, but you don't die...nothing to do but float in space.
You might counter that with, "well yeah, but eventually I'd find other sentient life forms and/or people again.” And sure, maybe, but that wouldn't last as long as you...and then you're just alone floating in space again, for the vast majority of your life. The only thing to look forward to, since you will outlast everything, is the end of time itself.
This. Sorry but I'm a web developer and one of my colleagues obviously uses it without checking if it is correct, then bugs me or others when he doesn't understand why it doesn't work as expected. It is frustrating as hell and I've explained it to him multiple times:
-
Over prompt the AI if you are going to use it. Long lengthy prompts that are very succinct but give as much context as possible.
-
It is highly preferable to check other sources first like Stack Overflow. Even Medium articles can be better than using AI sometimes.
-
Type out what the AI output rather than just copy and paste. As you type line by line, explain to yourself what is happening.
-
Question everything. Do you think this code will work. Why will it work?
-
Test the code. If it doesn't work as expected, trouble shoot it.
-
Don't be afraid to scrap the whole thing and start over. Even open another prompt and try again if you really think the AI can answer the question (there are many cases where your problem is just too specific and the AI can't).
He does none of these things. I swear he is the laziest developer I've ever met, and I've met my fair share.
Because it's not a bad thing to ask another person about their experiences in life. And putting it within the context of a particular life choice adds a layer of focus to the conversation.
Given your logic, no one should ever ask anyone else any question about their personal experiences other than to retrieve information.
Lemmy should be the replacement for reddit IMHO.
Don't get me wrong. I'm enjoying the recent influx since the recent reddit migrations, while still staying niche. And I'm appreciating being amongst like minded, generally leftist communities here.
But if it requires opening up the floodgates to idiots, fascists, and trolls in order to kill reddit, so be it. As long as there are no algorithms, advertisers, and spez's, I'm all for more lemmings.
I use Thunder currently. My first Android Lemmy client was Jerboa, which was fine.
I've tried Voyager, and I can't remember right now why I didn't stick with it, but I ended up just gravitating towards Thunder. It's UI strikes the right balance between feature full and minimal imho.
Perhaps a better analogy would be Usenet, IRC, or XMPP?
No Murder.
No Rape.
No Pollution.
Well, they produced Oxenfree 2 which was a welcome sequel that I enjoyed. But other than that, I didn't really hear about anything else from them.
To be fair. I get where they're coming from. Some people simply don't want to take the time to learn the Linux command line nor learn how to utilize the tool, balena etcher.
That said, if one says "Is there a way to simply install a Linux OS", I usually assume said person has at least a passing familiarity with burning an ISO as that is the bare minimum knowledge for starting the Linux installation process.
Hence my assumption that they were familiar with said tools when they asked the question.
I meant a workstation OS. Or any Linux OS that's not locked to a corporate account and probably filled with spyware.
Yes, though I have not tried to utilize this:

I don't even understand the first sentence of these instructions. "Mount the device" followed by a bunch of seemingly random letters and characters. Mount it on what? What do I do with these?
These instructions require a very basic understanding of the Linux command line and file system. As does installing a Linux OS without a GUI helper.
Not sure if these count, but:
