  • Id find a better source than me for this but from what ive been told a Kick streamer got repeatedly abused when failing challenges or games during his streams. The abusers also streamed and took suggestions from chat on how to abuse him. Kick also promoted their stream. The abused streamer was seen multiplex time panicking or having breakdowns over what the abusers were going to do. Allegedly one of the last things seen was the abusers smashing a glass bottle in his head.

    I do not know how much of this is true or made up. Would be very thankful for sources and corrections. I just know Kick is a dogshit platform heavily promoting gamblers on the front page, so this wouldnt surprise me.


  • Honestly, a bit fucked up your dad takes control over who you date and spend time with. But as the others said, you can atleast go there for a free meal and hopefully make a new friend. I do understand the weird pressure this would put on you though. I hope all goes well, and dont feel pressure to pursue a relationship if youre not feeling it. Your dad cant be the deciding factor in that






  • This is what I find fascinating about capitalism. It builds on the premise of increasing profit by increasing efficiency and quantity. With that mindset we should strive to improve efficiency until no one needs to work and everything is automated and autonomous, no? That would be the peak of efficiency? But then how would people pay for the products being produced? They cant, it needs to be free, since no one has a salary because theyre not working. But then the CEOs wouldnt make money. So theres no incentive unless your goal is not monetary but to improve the ultimate wellbeing of humanity. Its inherently a flawed concept since the main incentive is monetary, yet we refuse to accept what must be the ultimate goal to be able to keep power above others.

    And yes, i know this is very simplified. But still explain to me why we do mass layoffs in favor of AI slop if the incentive is not entirely monetary and for the sake efficiency and or cutting costs. Explain how and who will survive the further we go along? Capitalism at its core makes the rich the survivors. There wont be infinite recursions of 10x productivity revolutions because the workers will die off in the process.

    Sorry for not being able to answer until now. From what i can summarize a dGPU seems useless for my case. It also seems like a 11th gen i5 is the way. I wonder, does RAM speeds matter? If i can get a mini or micro ATX board and hook up an i5 with a good amount of DDR4 RAM i think i can get away cheaply. Will probably start off with a small M.2 and see if i can hook up my HDD later.

    Also which i5 would you suggest? I havent been on intel since my 4690K so i have no idea whats “good” or “enough”.




  • Uni, around 2019! Had a professor on the web team who encouraged all students to do the entire uni education on Linux.

    All tools and course material was tailored to work on Linux. Hand-ins, exams and anything related either functioned or had custom solutions built by the teachers, student and professors on the web programme.

    Everything was open source and if we found any bugs we could just open issues on GitHub. Weekly hand-ins were done on the student server on your own instance of the web server.

    In almost every aspect i think that programme was so well tailored for learning real web dev work.




  • Im not complaining about people liking Nintendos games. Neither am I saying that other AAA studios are flawless. Nintendo more often than not release finished products, apart from others (and with a few exclusions such as scarlet and Violet iirc). Nintendo is not a good company, neither is most of AAA studios. I would probably be more likely to play a Nintendo game myself rather than orter AAA titles. If a person has brain cells enough to recognize Nintendo and the industries flaws they are not the target of my complaints. Im sorry there are people out there worse than me who would continue to shit on you even after provingly displaying insight on the matter. Yet my point stands, people oblivious to the situation who keep coming back to Nintendo, without calling them out and letting every poor decision slide are part of the problem.

    I honestly dont know about how Nintendo treats their workers, and honestly, if a Japan-based company has better work ethics than the rest of the industry I am impressed. On the other hand the industry is so shit for workers it shouldnt be a hard thing to achieve.

    My personal stance is that people who blindly follow anything are pretty stupid. Nature gave us a frontal lobe for survival - make use of it.


  • No, completely understand that ofcourse. But Nintendo fans prove time and time again they are suffering from Stockholm Syndrome by talking down the people who’ve had enough of Nintendos bs and lovingly run back to purchase the next overpriced and underperforming console.

    Dont get me wrong, i completely understand why non-tech people dont want to put up with it and that we techies are a minority. What baffles me is the undending devotion the Nintendo fans have for their abuser.



  • Ethics and morality does it for me. It is insane to steal the works of millions and re-sell it in a black box.

    The quality is lacking. Literally hallucinates garbage information and lies, which scammers now weaponize (see Slopsquatting).

    Extreme energy costs and environmental damage. We could supply millions of poor with electricity yet we decided a sloppy AI which cant even count letters in a word was a better use case.

    The AI developers themselves dont fully understand how it works or why it responds with certain things. Thus proving there cant be any guarantees for quality or safety of AI responses yet.

    Laws, juridical systems and regulations are way behind, we dont have laws that can properly handle the usage or integration of AI yet.

    Do note: LLM as a technology is fascinating. AI as a tool become fantastic. But now is not the time.
