I have a friend who has worked in HR that will sometimes slip into that tone, but that’s unrelated to ChatGPT

Do you interact with people outside of audiophile circles? I’m not in any, and I haven’t heard anyone in person complain about a missing headphone jack in many years, not after a few years of airpods being available. Hell, I don’t know anyone who uses wired headphones anymore. I have heard people mention that my phone is too heavy, and I’m using a pixel 9 pro. Before this phone I was using a pixel 5, and I had people telling me my phone was too small/plastic-y. I don’t think you have an understanding of “normal people” They aren’t tech enthusiasts, they aren’t audiophiles, and they are genuinely shocked when I tell them about how egregiously most tech companies are violating their privacy, but are quick to say that they don’t care/don’t want to give up creature comforts to prevent it.

Five books are 2.50

Yeah, Nat 1 is miraculous failure, Nat 20 is miraculous success in all games I’ve played

I was gonna let you be stupid without saying anything, but you doubled down twice so now I will prove that you are wrong.

The first definition of decrypt in the American Heritage Dictionary is “To Decipher” I’ll admit, not super helpful, so let’s look at the definition of decipher. “To read or interpret (ambiguous, obscure, or illegible matter)”

So for someone to “decrypt” an overexposed picture, they would be, by dictionary definition, trying to interpret what the ambiguous picture was actually showing, since the lighting was making it unclear.

You are in the wrong when saying they used the wrong word, you just don’t have as good a command over the English language as you thought

For anyone that needs to hear this, the way to prevent this is to have Linux and Windows on separate drives.

I own the bottom one, it is even more ridiculous in person

Fellow Thunder user?

It’s not perfect, but I use grayjay. They have an android app and a desktop client, and are usually pretty quick to make updates that will sidestep Google’s anti-adblocking measures (within 1-2 days.) Again, not perfect, but I don’t mind a slightly worse experience to avoid having to see an ad. Plus it has sponsor block support built right in

Mostly the treatment required a fluid intake increase and salt intake increase. Put almost too simply, electrolytes are just fancy salts

Pretty much any distro can do any of the things Windows/Mac users are hoping a computer can do. So just pick one and stick with it. Once you’re familiar with Linux, the benefits/drawbacks of each distro will become clearer, and you’ll be able to make an informed decision. People will tell you “Arch is more lightweight than Mint” but compared to Windows/MacOS, all Linux distros are going to feel blazingly fast and lightweight. The only decent advice is, if you are just starting out and you have an Nvidia GPU, use a distro that sets that up for you automatically. It’s not super complicated to set up, but it’s definitely going to feel like a foreign experience the first time.

Not sure if you are aware, but foundations give you a grid system to use. A lot of players will build foundations up high, and build on a large, floating platform. I came from Factorio, and I actually really liked the factory size/shape constraints in Satisfactory, as it doesn’t let me use the same design solution for every resource node. Some places trains can easily get to, others require trucks to get the resources to where the train can pick them up, and others still require drones. I felt like in factorio, I could use the systems I came up with early throughout the entire game, and the only thing I needed to change was how to pump resources into my factory and scaling up my defense system.

I’m writing this on GrapheneOS right now

I too like to believe that people like this can’t be serious, keeps my outlook on life higher

OP’s name? Sal

Reminds me of the stuff Peter Deligdisch. This looks great, I’d buy it

Why do you say this so authoritatively when you didn’t actually know or look into it at all?

While I admire the lengths you go for correctness in your memes, I think in this case the misspelling of losing and chat GPT are the joke

In a lot of places in the US, notice is never legally required. You’re allowed to leave at any time, regardless of position. Would it screw over the company? Yes. Is it unprofessional? Yes. But you have zero obligation to give notice.

I work a high-paying job in tech with plenty of responsibility, but due to how upper management completely screws me, I will likely be leaving with same-day notice. If the company wants respect, they must first give respect.

Just know that if you are a manager, everyone is reacting out of obligation
