If they’re so worried about rich flight, why don’t they seize their assets or nationalize their companies if they do? Thanks for our warehouses asshole

In theory my dialog choices are better and more plentiful, but in practice that timer is real short and so my answer is to always stall, “Um… hmm.” Telltale hard mode out here

Unforgiveable implies that there can be no mistake about the negative side effects for even the dumbest among us before committing the act. Torture is about as intentionally cruel as it gets.

Some other suggestions here are frequently used under the umbrella of torture, for example, by the IDF.

Truly, this is the most relatable sisyphean trial of modernity.

Elon can’t be trusted with a literal sovereign nation, but I guess between The Vatican and US… What’s he gonna do with it, harbor predators?

A Tesla would turn off autopilot and roll to it’s own death if it thought a person couldn’t survive the crash and needed to absolve itself for crash scene investigators.

Probably more fair to go with standard enterprise drives like Exos or ultrastar

I agree with people saying at least 1080p but more. Upscaling is quite good now and makes little difference for the enjoyment of a film whether you can read the newspaper on the desk in the corner… Unless you’re a film buff who likes Easter eggs maybe

Never been so happy to be so wrong. I’m glad he’s alive and functional, more Democrats need to follow up on the realities on the ground level.

As they say, “You may not fuck with politics, but politics will fuck with you.”

Fwiw just saw this slide in the new android update. I’m not sure if it would work on iOS or if it would instead direct you to a Google app.

In my line of work, if third party is free and works just fine with no downsides we don’t continue pursuing a better option or we’d go insane.

At work we do a lot of transfers between android and iPhone and vice versa. We use Verizon Content Transfer installed on both phones because it plays nice between brands and offers bluetooth/wifi transfer reliably. Verizon affiliation not required.

Resolve? The US is going to impose tariffs on Taiwan before China invades.

Forgiveness is always possible, although if someone hits me with DARVO, I’m going to forever filter their behavior through a check before helping them. It’s sorta amazing what we can go through and forgive after, but I guess the misnomer is that the apology is for them and not ourselves.

I don’t consider it Art, but the specific reason I hate it is because it is meant to be an illusion of something that it’s not, and it’s crafted that illusion off the blood sweat and tears of people whom it treats as a line item in a database by people who don’t respect it. It is fundamentally a bastardizarion of the creative soul and rather purposefully at that.

I mean, every highly contrasted media we’ve ever watched, just about, is about someone with a modicum of empathy struggling against a fascist with no empathy to their cause, and what is more fascist than diminishing or dilluting the perceived value of art to the public? Art is the only language allowed to those who are repressed.

Do you have a source for AMD chips being especially energy efficient? I don’t consider them to be even close. M3 is 190 cinebench points per watt whereas Ryzen 7 7840U is 100. My ppw data doesn’t contain snapdragon x yet, but it’s generally considered to be a multithreading king on the market and it runs as signifcantly lower tdp than AMD. SoCs are inherently more energy efficient. My memory of why is the instruction sets on x86 allow for more complicated process but ARM is hard restricted to using less complicated processes as building blocks if complexity is required.

Like I mentioned though, there are tasks that x86 cannot be beat on but it’s because they use ASICs on-chip for hardware accelerated encoding/decoding and nothing is more efficient at a task than a (purpose-built, task specific*) ASIC /FPGA.

Dell is already releasing Qualcomm SoC Latitudes. There are bound to be compatibility issues, but performance wise it’s kinda undeniable that this is where the market is going. It is far more energy efficient than an Intel or AMD x86 CPU and holds up just fine. The main downsides you’ll see could likely be resolved with ASICs, which is how Intel keeps 4k video from being choppy on low end APUs for example. Compared to M4, Qualcomm’s offering is slightly better at multithreaded performance and slightly worse at single thread. The real downside to them is really the reliance on raw throughput for tasks that both brands of CPUs have purpose built daughter chips for.

Of course he does. The president literally benefitted directly from Apartheid and feels personally attacked by the reforms around it.

An ethnostate that’s also acting fascistic?! No wayyy /s
