I was wondering. But does total up votes actually count for anything algorithmicalky like how it is on reddit? I don’t think so on Lemmy right?

Not like you can even farm “karma” here in the first place. Lemmy doesn’t have karma I’m pretty sure.

Shiet, I thought you were talking about taking up arms and literally taking AI data centers

I mean…bro was just giving an opinion man. He didn’t even really say that much originally. I think claiming the “superiority” of something online alot of the times is vibes based. That ain’t necessarily bad though. Are people not allowed to give more generalized or vague opinions?

When it comes to shotguns, if you want a nice budget option, Mossberg Maverick 88 is a pretty good option, or if you’re willing to pay a bit more for higher quality Mossberg 500.

If you have a higher budget I’d recommend a rifle. AR platform.

You know, you’d think conservatives would put family before politics given their stereotypical “stated values”. But I guess that all goes out the window when their conservatism morphs into something closer to fascism.

Should try meditation. Specifically mindfulness meditation. If you want a book, I Recommend “Zen Mind, Beginner’s Mind” by Shunryū Suzuki.

This is not exactly the case. “It can be used for combat” does not necessarily mean “it’s the best/ideal/ready for combat”. I would stress readily that if you are in the west, Judo and or Brazilian Jiu Jitsu are good for grappling arts. For striking arts Muay Thai is great! Some alternatives are sanda or dutch kickboxing. Though I’m not too sure on availability of Sanda schools in the west. If you really want to go the Chinese martial arts route, Choy Li Fut is a good style, and has supposedly gone toe to toe with Muay Thai on a few occasions.

It’s good as a form of physical meditation. Supposedly some speculate taichi may have been a training art for actual practical grappling arts like shuai jiao.

The anvil, can make a lot of stuff with it. You can even use it to make fire, striking a piece of iron until it’s hot enough to light a forge or small fire. Older copies of the Machinery’s handbook(the machinist’s Bible) have a few things on blacksmithing.

Are you a cardiologist now? Anything you can say to scare nicotine addicts from smoking or vaping lol?

Might be cool to start advocating for some YouTube creators to also post their stuff on federated video hosting/sharing instances. Peertube is pretty cool. I mean shit, if any of you are thinking of being creators, and you make a video, put it both on YouTube and some Peertube instance.

Edit: replaced a word with “instance” and added word “instance”

From a comment below, Valve as a whole supposedly has around 350, of which around 80 work on Steam.

I’d recommend the java version

He’s actually leftist I think, and was parodying centrists too

I think most of the hostility is in regards to shilling of certain sites and services. Local self hosted AI is not likely to get as much flack I feel. Another aspect of hate is people generating images and calling it art, which…it is but, it’s the microwave equivalent of art. Such negative sentiments can be remedied by actually doing artistic shit with whatever image they generate, like idk, put the image into Photoshop and maybe editing the image in a way that actually improves it, or using said image as a canvas to be added onto or some other shit.

Edit Addendum: also the negative perception of AI has mostly been engendered by some of its more unpleasant supporters, who think of it as a way to make “irrelevant” certain groups they don’t like, and to take some sorta sick schadenfreude in the “replacement” of these people, which they think may be a way of reducing the power of these people (politically, socially, etc), and that’s kinda fucked up.

I don’t get why you’re being downvoted, sounds like a localization/price/law thing, like Brazil and the price of consoles and games over there.

Better to have invested in a Valve Index I feel than get an Oculus. Might be more expensive, but I trust Valve to not completely fuck over their consumers.

I think what they don’t realize is that it’s basically Pandora’s box at this point, and what’s been let out is a ticking time bomb. Unless something changes, remote work will always be on the cards now and will probably always be preferable.
