Yeah, they probably just guessed his Google Drive password lol

Lol this sounds like toothless bullshit. Are they confident that these people live in the US? Do they even know if these two twitter accounts are run by single individuals?

Accusing somebody else of licking the boot, while you’re having the same boot ground in your face and just acting like it’s no big deal, not a problem.

…but Apple started making performance ARM chips 4 years ago

I’m not expert, but I can tell you that Apple Silicon gave the new Macbooks insane battery life, and they run a lot cooler with less overheating. Intel really fucked up the processors in the 2015-2019 Macbooks, especially the higher-spec i7 and i9 variants. Those things overheat constantly. All Intel did was take existing architectures and raise the clock speeds. Apple really exposed Intel’s laziness by releasing processors that were just as performant in quick tasks, they REALLY kicked Intel’s ass in sustained workloads, not because they were faster on paper, but simply because they didn’t have to thermal throttle after 2 minutes of work. Hell, the Macbook Air doesn’t even have any active cooling!

I’m not saying these Snapdragon chips will do exactly the same thing for Windows PC’s, obviously we can’t say that for sure yet. But if they do, it will be fucking awesome for end users.

IT here: you’re all insane. Outlook is a dumpster fire, Outlook for Mac is a slightly prettier dumpster fire. The idea of locally syncing emails in 2024 is laughable, a web browser is exactly where you should view your emails.

Nintendo’s execs calling Boeing’s execs: “Hey, can you refer us to your…fixers? You know…rhymes with shmassassin…yeah you know, those guys.”

Reddit is still pretty useful, but it will become less and less relevant as contributors leave, just like StackOverflow did. Side note: are contributors actually leaving Reddit? People keep saying that’s happening, but I don’t really see it…maybe it’s very slow? Might depend heavily on the subreddit too.

Ooooh you’re right! Those fuckers

Wowwww that’s especially insulting considering that everything from Humble used to be DRM-free. I have HUNDREDS of games in my Humble library from the golden years. But most of their stuff doesn’t interest me nowadays.

Wow, Humble has really gone downhill after being acquired. Make sure you change the default split, they’ve made it harder to find! There’s an “Adjust Donation” button where you can choose to put more of your money to charity, rather than Humble and the book publisher.

By default, they’re only giving the EFF ninety cents of your $18 purchase. That’s insulting. And they still have the gall to put up a “leaderboard” for people that paid extra, but probably only 5% of their money went to charity if they didn’t think to change the split. What assholes.

This is suuuuuuuper common, most software makes you agree to some sort of arbitration clause. It doesn’t mean that you can’t sue them, it’s just an obstacle to deter you.

Okay. And until the government does something about it, a PHEV is an excellent choice.

Bullshit. Being able to eventually get somewhere doesn’t mean the infrastructure is “there” unless your standard for “there” is low. Charging every 100-150 miles means a long trip will take literally hours longer. That is just unacceptable for most people. I’ve done the trip across Pennsylvania several times in a Tesla, and Pennsylvania actually has decent charger coverage. But my trip still took a solid HOUR longer than usual. And if I have to wait in line at a full Tesla charger, it’ll add even more than an hour.

The fact that you, personally, are okay with driving slower doesn’t mean everyone else is. And that argument doesn’t even touch the fact that you’re only saying the infrastructure is there for Teslas. What about all the other brands? Everyone in America has to buy a Tesla?

An EV would work if the infrastructure was there.

Right, but it’s not yet. So a PHEV is a better option for most people (for now).

Oh my God this is hilarious.

SMS stands for SCHOOL OF MOLECULAR SCIENCE.

My dude, stop smoking weed and take some actual classes, maybe a debate class or something.

So, this article actually disagrees with you, it lends you no credibility at all. You said in another comment that you have evidence, I’d love to see it.

But I’ll go ahead and warn you: if your evidence is just the existence of an SMS “advisor” chat bot, I’m going to be very rude and condescending, and continue to make fun of you, because that isn’t evidence of anybody being “replaced”.

Edit: for those following along, it’s even dumber than I thought. OP saw “SMS” and assumed it meant texting, when it really stands for School of Molecular Science

Found out about what? That they haven’t actually replaced any staff with chat bots? Because that’s what this article says.

Did you just give us a fucking screenshot of an article headline instead of linking an actual article? (Edit 2: OP has now edited the post and added the link, thanks for that I guess.)

Edit: AND you gave it a misleading title? Jesus Christ, this is the peak of low effort bullshit.

Here’s the article, in case anyone wants to actually learn something instead of just reading a headline and commenting something edgy: https://www.theverge.com/2024/1/18/24043017/openai-arizona-state-university-asu-chatgpt

Here’s what it actually says:

The university will begin taking project submissions from faculty and students on where to use ChatGPT beginning in February. … There may even be room for chatbots to act as personalized tutors for ASU students, said Jones.

Literally doesn’t say a single word about “replacing advisors or educators”.

No. It all depends on how you drive it. If you just drive a PHEV around town and do the occasional road trip (which is how most people drive) then the ICE engine sees very little wear and requires very little service.

If you’re doing constant road trips and burning up the road, a PHEV is not for you. And neither is an EV, honestly.
