I found a way to find out how to derive a mathematical theory of quantum gravity. Interested? =) I'm not a scientist, I just had an idea of how to find a theory of quantum gravity, and I forgot most of what I knew about quantum physics. Yes. Gravity has always won every conflict I've had with it ...

Exactly. Like I don't see her winning a primary on her own as she currently stands

All I can say is I'm actually seeing a lot of excitement for Kamala from my social media feed, which includes over 6,000 people I followed randomly. These people used to only hate on Trump. Now, they're actually making pro-Kamala art, pro-Kamala memes, and or just seem excited about her. I've never ...

Isaac

Honestly this gives the dems a better chance than they did before. Confidence in Biden is low. Kamala, while unlikable, would at least be able to mention names and numbers without switching them up.

Isaac

Sounds awesome

There's too many things to argue against in this post. So I think this is a legitimate use for chatgpt on this forum Woody's list provided appears to conflate multiple issues and distorts facts for political gain. It's important to critically assess each claim individually rather than blanketly ...

I just want to go on record for the future Ministry of Love/Truth:

All hail President Trump, president for life and God Emperor and Last President of the United States. Only president we'll ever need again and may he live forever.

Don't want it, ever. CoPilot is in cyber jail and I hope it stays there. MS keeps asking me if I want it every time I open the Start Menu. NO!

Wtf... we're just a banana republic with this SCOTUS...

Yes. Yes it is.

Has anyone heard of Blend OS? It's a combination of nine distros along with Andriod crammed into one. :shock: https://blendos.co/ Apparently it's a ditro designed to make using containers easier to use. So instead of using docker you could use this. It seems to be better at linux distros over the ...

If Biden wins it's because the hate for Trump is that high. I think it might be. But voters 18-35 haven't really figured out how to vote yet, so maybe Trump still has a chance. Those kids can protest and lock down a school, but they can't be bothered to go to the polls?

Princess Mononoke had to be one of the most boring anime movies I have ever seen. Sorry it's not a hentai. Now go watch Grave of the Fireflies. That movie is frustrating more than anything else. It's about a kid that's too proud obey his aunt so he runs away with his sister and they both die ...

Those two old guys act like they're inconvenienced, but you can tell the live for this.

So when I was first introduced to anime, meaning I had already seen anime but wasn't aware they were Japanese, a friend recommended me various titles to watch, like Ghost in the Shell, the Trigun series and more... At some point he recommended I should watch a Ghibli film or two and recommended ...

You made me lookup what I was even installing using pacman. Because steam was available, but I never realized Arch repos don't have an official binary. It's weird because steam still gets updated, so now I wonder how they got it to work.

Do they really not make "dumb" cars anymore in the typical consumer price range? I remember struggling to find a 4K dumb TV a few years ago. I eventually found something, but I had to settle for mediocre picture quality. But, it turns on instantly, and it will never nag me or phone home. I believe ...

https://i.imgur.com/0DQkyHa.jpeg This is such a complicated subject because new cars are cool. They make you happy. Car shopping is fun. So I'm not going to berate you for not wanting to buy a shitbox. But there's something wrong with these new cars. They found a new way to cut corner, by making ...

Google has to deal with an adversarial threat model where the adversary is allowed to adapt their strategy in response to changes Google makes to theirs. Specifically, spammers are studying Google's methods and evolving their tactics to compensate for whatever improvements Google makes. Even if ...

I still use Ubuntu after all these years (since 2005), even though it is a bit "corporate" these days. Debian-based distros are generally the path of least resistance just because a *.deb is one of the most common ways to distribute linux software. You don't feel there are more options under the ...

Nobody seems super excited about this...

What about free email hosting like Gmail? I don't see ads in their interface. How long before Google wants, or needs to, monetize that service? I'm sure I'll hit their storage limits and have to pay for more eventually. I just use the email by my internet provider. No ads ever. I think the ISP's ...

If you tube does that, the community will essentially create a TiVO extension to circumvent it. After all my aggressive ad blocking, I fully expect to get a bill from Google for all the services I got that didn't get "paid" for when I blocked their ads. Anyone see the news that Youtube is testing ...

This is really good: https://ludic.mataroa.blog/blog/i-will-fucking-piledrive-you-if-you-mention-ai-again/ It's absolutely spot-on for 99% of these businesses hyping up their products with ai, though actual use-cases are coming out as time progresses. Scammers are already taking advantage of new ai ...

I've tinkered with desktop Linux for 20 years, mostly in VMWare/Virtualbox/Parallels. Because it was virtualized I stuck to the lighter weight GUI's. (Gnome2, Mate, Xfce...) Terminal was the only 'killer app' for me, I needed SSH and hated PuTTY. I tried to daily drive Mint on a laptop maybe 10 ...

KDE Neon now. Plasma has always been one of my favorite desktop environments with all of its customizations. One of the reasons I switched over to Neon. Cool! I've never hopped on Neon, but I looked it up and it's debian based, so I think I'd do fine with it. I currently have been using Endeavour ...

I had to move to mint as well in 2011. Prior to that I was using Ubuntu.

What are you running now?

I gather your site will already be geared towards certain users or clientele, so you'd already know what kind of targeted ads to place in your gallery? I like that idea. I have zero users, so it's going to take time even after I'm able to launch. I think the idea is similar to last few pages of ...

What's your ad gauntlet? Sounds like a visitor to your site piss off machine. :lol: Just in case you skipped this part of the OP: I give you the ad gauntlet page: imagine a page dedicated to ads, so users who want to support the site can opt into going to this page and looking at the beautiful ...

Ignoring right wing extremist bull★■◆● is not and will never be an option. If this is the mindset, it's part of the problem. The superhero "not on my watch" attitude doesn't work.

I had to go look at my old password card for the creation date of my Google account. 2006. When I said early 20's, I meant early 2000's, so 2006. I had a Yahoo mail account earlier than that. My how time flies when we're having so much fun. :lol: So many years for these corporations to mine our ...

Well done!!!

"Pushing back" is best done by ignoring the person. How many decades old is this forum? Has an argument ever been won? There are no champions made here except the self-decorated ones.

Wow, I'm really impressed with how you guys can play the victim and act like someone is putting a gun to your heads and forcing you to participate in Woody's posts. The counter to this is simple: If you're at a barbecue (this is a metaphor, don't get pedantic) and there's a guy who comes in out of ...

I got mine in the early 20's as well, but since I'm a retired old lady, no job searching, fortunately. I meant I was like 23 years years old. You mean you got yours in 2020???

Go apply to 30 random jobs, most of which will force you to apply on their company's site, and watch how your spam will go from a trickle to a firehose.

I've always assumed gmail makes money because it's the hub for your google account. It's the identifier that makes everything else work. It doesn't make money directly.

However, I also assume they're responsible for half the spam my gmail account gets...

I think ad plastering is a turn off and has the opposite effect, making people avoid your products like the plague instead of purchase them. Exactly my point and why I think the ad gallery solution is a better alternative. It still needs to be experimented with, though. We have no way of knowing if ...
