I agree that it’s heartbreaking and sad, but not for the reasons you seem to be saying.

The fact that they were so desperate for connection that they imagined one with Chat GPT is the sad part. Not that it was taken from them.

They need help, or maybe just some friends. Not… whatever this was.

I will happily enable and use it once doing so doesn’t break any of my connectivity.

I’m not managing an enterprise network, it’s just my home, but my ISP doesn’t support IPv6 so that’s one extra layer of complexity right off the hop. On top of that internal services switch which previously required no manual configuration just seem to randomly not work.

IPv6 is not going to see widespread adoption unless it can be implemented completely transparently for the end user, full stop.

The New York Post being a single point of agreement is great.

As the other person said, something is wrong if your machine is shutting down instead of just giving choppy playback.

Do you do much heavy CPU with with that machine at all? It’s possible that AV1 decoding is the only thing you’re trying to do that pushes the CPU to that degree. 7th Gen Intel CPUs have hardware decoders for h.265, so the CPU is barely used to play these back, but lacking a decoder for AV1 means it has to be decoded in software, which hits the CPU hard.

With imagery, or in abstracts. I have an internal monologue but not everything is a monologue. If I’m working on a project of some kind I’ll usually keep a mental model of the current piece I’m working on in my head. There’s no monologue attached, it’s just a “working copy” of my current task.

Or for example if I’m reaching somewhere I can’t see to plug in a usb port or something I’m visualizing in my head what my hand is doing, but I’m not talking myself through it.

What blows me away is how much of it is so obviously AI but people seem to just not notice. You do see it called out from time to time, especially on Lemmy, but in the wider Internet it’s much more common to see people just engaging with it.

Ah, if you need to build a .NET project that makes sense

Nuget is a the .NET package manager. Like npm or pip, but for .NET projects.

If you needed it for a published application that strikes me as fairly strange.

The Windows version definitely does not open your default browser to download a new installation package which you then need to install yourself.

It’s a checkbox in the installer, easy to miss. Has defaulted to off for a very long time now, basically ever since SSDs have been commonplace.

The default depends on your storage. It has defaulted to not load on startup for me any time I’ve installed it to an SSD.

Jellyfin has some security issues that, depending on who you ask, are either critical vulnerabilities that make it completely unsafe to expose to the Internet or largely unconcerning for regular users.

I had exactly the same experience, at about the same time. Had been hearing good things about Plex so decided to try it out. Immediately noped out when it required me to create an account with them. Similar to you I looked around and found it to be a relatively new change.

Frankly baffling to me that anyone with the wherewithal to self-host was okay with it.

A persistent assumption about advanced interstellar travel is that engine efficiency is monumentally better to the point that the “tyrrany of the rocket equation” is no longer a factor, and extra mass can be carried without absolutely exploding your fuel requirements into absurdity.

If adding 10kg of payload didn’t mean also potentially many times more mass of propellant we’d be sending up more robust spacecraft, no question.

Canada can also meet most or all of its own dairy needs. There’s no reason a Canadian should be buying dairy from other countries aside from a few niche/luxury products, so that tariff is fine.

Charging tariffs on things a country needs to import is crazy.

I don’t really like Discord, but it supports message pinning, threaded conversation, as well as a full blown discussion forum option for community channels. Your complaints seem to be more about the moderation of that specific community than Discord itself.

OP doesn’t seem to have responded, so no, but that’s not the fault of the question.

Because of the XY problem. The problem OP is stating may not actually be the source of the issues OP is experiencing.

Finding out what OP is trying to do will better inform a solution and may make the stated problem irrelevant.

I work at a “Microsoft Shop” in a division that was a previously acquired software developer that used an entirely linux based dev stack.

That stack is still all linux and we basically have to do all our work in WSL. It’s a pain.

People find sunsets pretty. That doesn’t mean they’re heliosexual. Finding a thing aesthetically pleasing is distinct from being sexually or romantically attracted.
