Do you fear technology

Oh yes! Greatly!

Windows

Ah, a different kind of fear was meant…

I mean if someone can conceive it then yes.

Personally I do think there will always be a “class” of some sort since even among career and financial equals I still view colleagues as a different class of human.

Like I’m a camp in the woods kinda human where my coworker is a take his car to a race track kinda human.

But that’s never the class that is being discussed.

A classless society is specifically one where someone doesn’t have power over you by some financial measure. A true meritocracy as there is no financial incentive to be in those roles since it is also a moneyless society.

Utopian? Maybe. Conceivable? Yeah I can conceive what that would be like and I want to strive for it.

Maybe its not important if its possible and its just important that there are people willing to work towards it or implement something like it in their own controllable way.

A 4060ti has been out long enough that you’re fine with basically any main stream distro.

I think even the 50 series is fine now with most mainstream distros as well.

I still prefer arch based distros now for Nvidia cards and honestly, Fedora is great!

I stopped playing when they crossed over with Dungeons and Dragons then did a Harry Potter knock off set.

It really ruined the vibe for me knowing this was going to be cardboard funkopops

Is it a HUD or just a spy tool?

I gotta wear glasses anyways so it’d be cool if I can get like a pathing over lay with maps and maybe customizable notifications.

But video calling and just taking poorly framed pictures isn’t interesting.

If you haven’t seen The Last Kingdom I heavily recommend it.

I like your vague language. It really conveys the sense of mystery and intrigue you’re going for.

So Khazars are a real active modern faction? Is it like Kabal practicing Gentile Converts?

Khazar is an interesting new identity to me.

Cursory google search says it was a trade empire that lasted 200 years and converted to Judaism.

Off topic to the rest of the post, but I’m now deeply curious what a modern day Khazar is and what it means to you. Please enlighten me!

Considering Randy REALLY wants you to pay $130 USD for this game, I’m not shocked his performance advice was “be less poor”

I made this document a while back for new gun owners with the absolute basics.

I learned something interesting from my AI researcher friend.

ChatGPT is actually pretty good at giving mundane medical advice.

Like “I’m pretty sure I have the flu, what should I do?” Kinda advice

His group was generating a bunch of these sorta low stakes urgent care/free clinic type questions and in nearly every scenario, ChatGPT 4 gave good advice that surveyed medical professionals agreed they would have given.

There were some issues though.

For instance it responded to

“Help my toddler has the flu. How do I keep it from spreading to the rest of my family?”

And it said

“You should completely isolate the child. Absolutely no contact with him.”

Which you obviously can’t do, but it is technically a correct answer.

Better still, it was also good at knowing its limits and anything that needed more than OTC and bedrest was seemingly recognized and it would suggest going to an urgent care or ER

So they switched to Claude and Deepseek because they wanted to research how to mitigate failures and GPT wasn’t failing often enough.

All can be had for $50 ish

Yeah that’s covered in the book and podcast.

Not in crazy detail but it is there already within academia.

The idea is that whatever hyper dense state of energy caused our big bang has caused others.

I’m just a tech guy so I can’t explain it with justice, but I heavily recommend at least scrubbing that podcast for when they talk about almost exactly what you described!

A Microsoft glazing botnet leveraging copilot and all of r/linuxsucks training data to shitpost on Lemmy made by a developer who took a Janatorial job at Microsoft to “get his foot in the door” during an internal hackathon he was accidentally invited to.

Damn it! Another book for the list!

I have a book on my to read list that delves into all the ideas about the “big bang” and how a lot of scientists are convinced that there were are and will be more “big bangs”

It’s called “Battle of the Big Bangs”

I learned it from Alex O’Connor’s “Within Reason” podcast episode 115

Gonna write my short story about the orc barbarians who destroy human colonies that get too close to orc territory, not because they’re inherently evil, but because they’ve seen what human greed for power and domination does to subjugated races, the flow of magic, and the health of the earth. So they view humans as evil.

“Your kind knows nothing but exploitation! You drain the lands of their nutrients to feed cities of sycophants until they are fat! Tell me, adventurer, when was the last time you heard of a dragon attacking an orc caravan? We have no fear of such beings as they only attack the depraved greed of man.”

“Attacked the village? Do your handlers even lie to hired blades? Yes we burned the village you call Argath, but no one was harmed. Humans, as dangerous as you are, are still cowards. Surrounding a mining village and telling them to leave when they’re outnumbered ten to one is hardly, what you would call, a negotiation. We sent hunters to escort them out of the mountains of Gri’ut Kar and burned the village to ensure the trek was one way.”

I always tell the interviewer what they want to hear. Its very obviously a game of correct answers.

I lie on my resume too, but not in ways I can’t back up.

For instance, I imply I have a degree because I did go to college for 4 consecutive years for a multitude of degrees. So I have different resumes with different majors depending on what job I’m applying to. I mostly use my CS/Engineering degree now-a-days. I’m able to talk the talk enough that they’ve never checked or asked for a transcript.

But it sounds more like your job wanted to, on paper, be compliant with workers rights stuff

“We offer a break at X and Y hours.”

But had a cultural expectation to not follow it. Which is dumb and they can, in my humble opinion, get fucked. Nursing has a massive burnout rate and shit like that is why.

I think you should recognize you dodged a bullet more than you should think about “lying” in an interview.
