I would disagree, 100 millionaires don’t own F1 teams or have boats so large and so much money they can take down bridges to get them out of port.

The problem is people like myself and many other can’t fathom even desiring things so absurd… And many of these billionaires won’t rest until they own the entire world.

Not remotely surprised.

I dabble in conversational AI for work, and am currently studying its capabilities for thankfully (imo at least) positive and beneficial interactions with a customer base.

I’ve been telling friends and family recently that for a fairly small amount of money and time investment, I am fairly certain a highly motivated individual could influence at a minimum a local election. Given that, I imagine it would be very easy for Nations or political parties to easily manipulate individuals on a much larger scale, that IMO nearly everything on the Internet should be suspect at this point, and Reddit is atop that list.

It’s saving me a hell of a lot of man hours on incredibly tedious tasks that would require looking up individual items in a wiki or the like and then directly populating the answers into a spreadsheet… Our team doesn’t have the budget to hire someone to do it, so it basically just wouldn’t get done without it.

Useful party trick for me!

Adding to this, the wealth disparity is going to continue to increase with those who have equities dramatically increasing their personal capitol, while the middle class is going to fall further behind.

I’m convinced a major part of inflation that goes completely ignored is the staggering amount of wealth generated by equities. People have literally seen 1 million become 2 or 3 over the last few years. They have been spending money with complete disregard… Watching what people buy at Costco is insane!

Please don’t ban me… I joined .ml because it was privacy, security and FOSS focused! I had no idea about the ancillary political focus now associated with it.

Same!

Given the reality that Linux simply isn’t viable for some people (including myself), I highly recommend using this tool.

Between this, and manually uninstalling a lot of bloat (or using a specific type of windows install) and a few other tweaks, windows becomes significantly more usable.

Disabling garbage in the task bar, removing Cortana and indexing services, etc etc, it can also add a fairly decent uplift in performance.

I’m sure there is still telemetry being collected but significantly less and less impact on my user experience and day to day performance.

Oh and make sure you turn off auto/feature updates!

I never liked Twitter to begin with, once it became an unabashed environment for hate it was a piece of cake to close my account.

Small houses in most Florida Metro areas are in the 400k range… Multiple 3/2s in the 1500sq range are 500k+

I wondered why I was getting more political spam in my inbox for a bit…

Since Sync came out, absolutely love it! Hope more people join!

And here I am… I’ve never even tried it.

Well, I mean if you media is literally fictional propaganda, then maybe it should be cancelled?

I think E Bikes are amazing, but people don’t seem to take their speed seriously enough in my area. Those things absolutely crank, and people seem to have no concept of their potential danger to themselves, pedestals or other motorists. Nearly 30 mph isn’t a joke, and they seem to ride on the sidewalks here rather than the roads.

There are so many problems with this.

Far too many homeless people, there is so much wealth in this nation, there is no reason we cannot provide ample shelter. This probably is going to continue to become worse with the disproportionate wealth distribution and the continual increase in use or automation and AI.

Additionally, we should have broader access to wifi, specifically for those who are homeless and need access to online resources, so they can eventually no longer be homeless. Seems like a great federal program opportunity, if we actually want people to be able to recover from being homeless. No one is going to become homeless or stay homeless because of the badass government subsidized wifi.

This seems incredibly self perpetuating on the cities behalf. It’s like making places uncomfortable to sleep upon… Why not invest that money into someplace people can goto sleep and get the assistance they need to exist in society.

I don’t really care… Reddit is constantly spamming me with follow bots from Only Fans, and I have never posted in a NSFW sub.

I’m also hopeful the way this is structured we will see a bit better moderation of servers/subs.

Ok thank you very much for the information! I really liked Fedora, and performance was excellent when plugged in, it was simply the mobile aspect. I need to install the latest version again at some point here.

Hmm, I think I was using the settings built into fedora, but also tried doing some manual edits. The issue was mostly related to standby battery life during suspend, and in general on battery efficiency compared to Windows. In fairness it’s a Ryzen 6850u which is newer and probably not as prolific. Everything else ran really well though!

I am on Mac OS El Monterey for audio production work, and Windows 10 for general productivity/gaming.

I love Fedora, but found battery life less than optimal, and many of the programs I need for employment simply do not have Linux versions.

Well, unfortunately we have more than our share of the brainwashed here…
