… said the stubborn person refusing to upgrade.
I was still on Windows 7 until about four months ago when I needed to upgrade to 10 for work. I totally agree and understand your point

Right, but why not be an arsehole to your workers as well? Could be fun
I’d let them dominate me
In case anyone actually wants to know a couple of reasons
A) It’s not fair that some people pay and some don’t. (Of course it’s also not fair that some can afford $70 on a video game and some struggle to buy food)
B) If everyone would pay then we’d all only have to pay $50 each, lowering the price for those that are paying $70 at the moment. (Whether developers would lower prices or just make more money is another question)
Thank you
You can take what you’re given and be happy /s
Large-language models and computer tools in general are different to traditional machines, to be fair. For every spinning Jenny that you make, you need people to make it, people to service it, and people to operate it. These people all have jobs now. For every piece of software you make, you only need the one team who originally develops it. From then, it can be replicated endlessly with no extra human input. You also only need one set of people to “service” it (bug fixes, updates etc.) for the entire world, rather than one per factory or workplace
(Also, I disagree with your premise and your assumption that jobs = good, but you probably don’t want to hear about it and I don’t want to type an essay :) )
Without meaning to be rude, you’ve not been paying attention. Throughout the history of capitalism, rich arseholes and then corporations have done as much as they can to avoid paying people for labour. It shouldn’t be surprising that this latest tool is used the same way
I’ll take someone compassionate and near-sighted over someone who isn’t compassionate.
… still though
We know this comment by Shannon Martin is correct and sensible because it was reviewed by Shannon Martin! As a licensed insurance agent, I’m sure she is qualified to talk about uh… electronics… hmm
I care so little I’m not even going to write a comment
… fuck.
I think they’re saying “America is a bad example, please don’t follow us”
And where do you plug in the aerial to watch TV? Or doesn’t it work like that where you’re from?
The only reason for floating point numbers is to use your laptop as a life buoy
If you’re doing some real illegal stuff, you don’t want an inspection just because you didn’t keep your frier up to spec
I’m actually going to disagree there. Where I live there is a monthly magazine delivered free to anyone who wants it. The magazine is 100% adverts and is paid for entirely by the people advertising. It’s very useful when you’re trying to find a plumber of sell a car or whatever.
EDIT: But you were probably being hyperbolic and I will agree that I dislike to see adverts anywhere that I’m not actively searchibg them out
Thanks! No need for awards, just saying nice things is always nice
Yep, quite right! I got it mixed up with Puerto Rico in my head which is why I called them American
I was shocked too. You really think some nerd who updates websites needs a SWAT team to take him down?! American police are crazy don’t listen to me, they’re not American!
I’ve not read the article yet, but I’m going to assume it’s affecting my sleep because I’m reading about how it’s affecting my sleep at 04:21 instead of, you know, going to sleep. Just a guess
