I’ve had this happen at least a few times. Each time it was because someone was in the crosswalk they couldn’t see and thought I was just being a dumbass.

My case is all black, but almost everything these days ships with RGB if it’s a modern gaming part. I set them to the lowest brightness at a dark purple so it barely shows. Anything more than that is too distracting for me.

Now I kind of want to see just how broken my install gets if I just have ChatGPT guide me through the whole installation.

get an unexpected wave of inspiration

start to do the thing

look at the amount of actual work it would take

realize it was just a good fantasy and go back to routine

I can definitely relate.

You can record a few seconds of dialogue and get convincing results. I’m sure at a professional level, you could do it with a few minutes at most.

(Side note, I don’t endorse or recommend the site I linked to. Only using it to demonstrate the point. I don’t recommend you surrender the sound of your voice to these guys.)

I’ve just had my gaming PC hooked up to my living room TV for the last several years. I have a lower power desktop on my room for anything that isn’t gaming. I can’t imagine buying one of the modern consoles just for their limitations alone.

Plus I just wait a few years and 95% of the explained make their way to PC anyway.

Can a vampire not break and enter? Would an invitation work if they were out of town and needed the vampire to cat sit for a weekend? Does you being in the house have an effect on the invitation or it deed based? How are renters handled? So many questions!

If you’re like me, you’re frustrated with vampire law. Here at Vampire Law, we help to keep your invitations clear and any misunderstandings cleared up.

That was not the loophole. That only applies to Sonny who was the only one capable of ignoring the 3 laws. The main computer (Vicky I think?) is the one who comes to the “we must enslave the humans to save the humans” conclusion all on her own.

This is the first I’ve heard of this. We didn’t get our PS2 until a year or so after it came out. This would have driven me absolutely mad.

Not really. Until you get down to really small sizes, the human ear can’t perceive the signal noise. If you’re recording at a full studio level, the lower the noise floor, the better, and thicker cables/ports are better, but for most indie stuff, 3.5mm would suffice just fine for audio quality. Also, if you amping the signal like crazy, that could theoretically help with noise.

Someone watching jam2go???

Considering the 1/4” jack has been around for literal eons (1877, no joke), there’s sort of just tradition when you compare it to the 3.5mm from the 1950s. The primary reason being durability. Your guitar is probably going to be yanked on pretty rough a few times compared to something as little as a phone that will just rip out of your hand. On the guitar, it’d probably damage the port pretty quickly.

Unless you wanted high transfer speeds for something like an iPhone if you’re transferring videos, then you’d need something like 12 or 13 poles. Now imagine accidentally yanking on the port of a modern smartphone tripping over the cable.

I could only generate about 9 poles in my testing.

I agree with all of your points, but if we don’t even shine a positive light on steps in the right direction, then what are we supposed to do? Wait until we’re in a utopia, then start acknowledging improvements?

This isn’t a perfect final solution, but it’s a positive step, so I’d still say worth celebrating.

I’m right there with you. I don’t doubt they are correct, but from the start, my brain has solidly decided to perceive it as white and gold. Cannot see blue anywhere no matter how much I try and force my brain to look for it.

Probably watch a bunch of tv shows and fall asleep, if it lands on a weekend.

You can, but you turn back time to before you were Superman, but still moving that speed, so you just atomize.

You’re hitting a lot of the ideas brought up in this scene from my favorite movie. It’s all so up in the air as far as what the ‘soul’ or ‘intelligence’ really is.
