The best vehicle for the apocalypse is unironically a bike. Powered by you, fixable by you, easy to carry as a last resort.

How are you ever gonna fix this monster when it breaks down ? Do you really think you're going to find more than a single day's worth of fuel with this horrendous gas mileage ?

This reads like something from another planet. The only time a driving license would have been useful to me was when I moved πŸ˜‚

Unsurprised to see NixOS isn't on there. I love it, but it just doesn't make sense for the general gaming public.

The last person on earth would never be able to operate the infrastructure to actually verify that they are indeed alone.

But emulation is already close to perfect for that generation, and all the games are easily available online, so the issue is irrelevant.

Although a socialist myself, the argument "smart people agree with me" is always a terrible justification for anything.

You don't need this many editors x) Neovim for all your terminal needs, emacs evil mode when you need some actual UI in there like a notebook or R markdown !

Besides that, Java is never the right tool. It's always close enough but never quite right ; just like you can technically replace every single tool with a knife... But you shouldn't. (Except a knife does have a proper use, Java does not)

Sounds cool ! Hope we can prove this works with a clinical trial. Lots more fun than getting jabbed in the arm !

That's nice but it's not good enough. There needs to be a compile flag so the AI code isn't even included at all.

I am still using a 2011 TV, but when it goes out it seems I'll have to switch to a big PC monitor to dodge all that bullshit.

I don't want a smart TV. I want a stupid screen, with just enough color settings to properly calibrate it. That's it.

Despite being neurodivergent, I also happen not to be profoundly evil ! So I don't see myself joining anytime soon...

But why !? Chatbots are useful enough, I don't need AI anywhere else than when I explicitly choose to use it on my terms !

You wanna make money ? Make a chatbot that lies less and/or doesn't reinforce people into their delusions, or one that runs for cheaper, or both.

AI is useful. Just like knives are useful. Doesn't mean I want every object I own to also somehow be or contain multiple knives πŸ˜…

More often than not, a faster horse is actually all we need.
