Depends on what you mean by that. PTs can use chiropractic techniques to great effect.

But there is a MASSIVE difference between an actual PT that sometimes uses specific chiropractic techniques and the con artists who try to shake your down for weekly neck cracks.

I didn’t know at the time, years ago. I was just like “OMG Delorean truck!”

Bullet dodged.

Yep. I was unironically going to buy a Cybertruck… then Elon came out of the fascist closet while Tesla’s QC/CS problems escalated… now there is no way I will ever touch anything Tesla or related to Musk.

Waiting for Aptera now, but would also consider Rivian in a pinch.

Thanks. That’s precisely why I’m wondering. By their token I’m “independent” as a NPA… but I’m NPA because there isn’t really a home for leftists in American politics.

What do they mean by “independents”? Are we talking NPA, AIP, or both?

The Mist

That ending was one of the most brilliant gut-punches in film history. Stephen King himself said he wished he had written it.

Is that project going to maintain Manifest V2 support?

I’ve been using Sunshine for Linux with Moonlight on my AVP and that works great. The native Moonlight port for AVP is still very much a buggy, crashy WIP, but the iPad version is a decent enough standby.

Honestly, using virtual Mac Display on AVP is so, so, so good, that I want that functionality everywhere… from any and all of my devices. Sunshine + Moonlight is currently the most promising path forward, IMO.

Same. Everything goes to essentials like rent, food, and utilities. I’ve given up on ever being able to buy a home for my family.

The economy is so bad that student loans are just another drop in a very big, very full bucket.

…SpaceOS, which is a built on top of Google’s ChromiumOS…

I’m out.

Linux is… right there. It’s right there.

How about the whole “sure you already paid for a year of Prime Video, but now you need to pay us again or we’re going to ruin the thing you already paid for” situation?

I don’t just mean DLSS or frame generation as it exists today… I mean completely re-interpreting what is rendered before it’s displayed with complete temporal and deterministic consistency. Given that we’ve seen some demos of the concept in action, and that was over a year ago, I really don’t think it’s far off, either.

Imagine booting up classic Monkey Island, and Nvidia’s AI reinterpreted makes it look like a high-end modern animated TV show. That’s the kind of thing I’m talking about.

It’s a matter of time before we can use real-time AI upscalers. Nvidia (et al) have been working on this quite a bit.

In the mean time, the two options you mentioned are it.

I feel like calling them “assholes” unfairly defames assholes, but even “murderous fascist monsters” doesn’t adequately convey their sheer, staggering violence and inhumanity.

Yep. I will happily contribute to something with community ownership that I believe in. I will not, under any circumstances, provide free labor to a private entity.

Google’s unbelievably incompetent AI or the “info”?

Because the info is wrong, but this is an actual screenshot of the outrageously stupid (and frequently dangerous) stuff that Gemini says.

I’m surprised it scores that well.

Well, ok… that seems about right for languages like JavaScript or Python, but try it on languages with a reputation for being widely used to write terrible code, like Java or PHP (hence having been trained on terrible code), and it’s actively detrimental to even experienced developers.

Debian. Hard to get more stable (to a fault, even) than Debian.

They are supposed to stop it looooong before it gets to this stage. Have one or more companies formed powerful trusts that give them significant power over a market? Break them apart and bust them open.

Instead, we twiddle our thumbs while bootlicking white knites tell you it’s not a monopoly because there are TWO trusts cornering entire markets.

It’s madness.

Vile. I hope those students sue those bigoted, genocidal pigs into the dirt.
