Innit mate! If you enjoyed Utopia watch The Hollowmen you wont regret a bit

Life’s fucked, no doubts. But that doesn’t mean you make comments that could potentially harm vulnerable people

Because the US/west gets to decide who the terrorist is? I mean the US can invade a country to protect against communism, but Palestinians protecting themselves* (yes, I agree the asterisk is doing some heavy lifting) are terrorists. So on and so forth.

As someone from East, being politically active and living as an expat in a western country, I learnt this fact/double standards the hard way?

The same extension of contract thung happened with me as well. In the team standup my manager announced my contract will get renewed but that day evening I was welcomed with the news of two days notice period. It’s a very fresh wound at the moment so need to let it heal

Perfect reply doesn’t exis…

Thanks a lot, kind Lemmy user. Speaking of worth, I mean its really hard to perform at your best when you dont feel equally treated…

You are saying it is worth the grind…

What are they called in Australia?

Just when I am trying to move away from big tech. This happens

I removed windows from my PC, thought installing lineage OS on Chromecast will give me confidence to mess up with my phone.

Maybe I will start by buying one more Chromecast from marketplace/eBay mess that up and then work on my phone.

Interesting, the thing is I can quite easily pick up something new but at the same time I am very resistant to change until there is good reasoning and some sort of a scientific conformation.

Need to discover good uses cases for LLM/AI and make peace with it I guess!

Thanks.

And to clarify, other than the corporate greed is there any actual use case for the work around their limitations? I mean if the building materials aren’t strong enough there is only so much you can achieve with a beautiful paint job (my current understanding, and I may be wrong)

That’s been my issue, ie somewhere I know all this LLM lead AI is a bubble. But the corporates either increase the context window or release something that does better parallel subjobs after 3 months, and now all of a sudden this LLM lead AI is the “future” and it can perform “agentic” tasks.

It kinda makes it impossible to make people (friends who are developers, colleagues) look past the marketing gimmicks.

There is a proverb in my mother tounge which roughly translates to: A cat would close it’s eyes to drink milk and assume that no one else saw it drink milk

I agree with everything you said. But what to do when you are broke? And the industry is monopolized? A lot of times it’s either Amazon, Temu or Ali Express.

/rant warning: kind of rant and the truth of the world we live in now

What are the alternatives? I am am expat, and I like Bunnings (as in like it, I even purchased my water bottle there lol). Now that they started surveillance what are the similar stores where I can kill my curiousity?

I kinda continued watching for Olivia Munn

Bluey is an amazing show TBH, in oz it’s free to air that’s so cool

How is freezing cold, 32% hot? What am I missing here?

I meant the process command on linux, or ‘PS’ in short. I am not very literate with OS concepts but wouldn’t be bad to explore
