About a gig of books, and one movie called “Lensman: Secret of the Lens”

Not accurate. Left side should not have the feeling of accomplishment

Found the weeb

A phone I’m excited for is the Bigme Hibreak Pro. Its got an e-paper screen that refreshes at a tolerable speed, and you can install apps from the Google Play store which run just fine. Will it ever play video smoothly? Fuck no. Is it cool? Also no. Is it horrifically expensive? Surprisingly, also no.

Bigme has also made some exciting (but way too expensive) progress in the desktop computer world by making a 60hz eink monitor. It frankly is terrible at most things people do on their home computers, but it can keep up just fine with the boring work stuff like Vim and the MS Office Suite. Am I willing to pay almost $2k for a monitor for work? Absolutely not, but I’m glad it exists.

The lead is a metaphor for how training an AI uses a shit-ton of energy, and if its a Corp training it the water used to cool the GPUs is often dumped straight into a local river, which does bad things to the stuff living in the river.

It could also be referring to how the training data is usually scraped from all across the internet, but I think this person is specifically concerned with the environmental cost.

My fiancée asked me to do an easy, mindless task of downloading all the CC for her sims. I tried to explain this to her, and she didnt believe me until she saw that an hour of it reduced me to tears

No, I have both and I can tell you for sure that the hyperfocus from my autism and the hyperfocus from the ADHD are very different experiences. The ADHD hyperfocus feels more like addiction, in a sense, since it feels like I sink into the bullshit task like mud and I can’t pull myself back out without help. And it’s never actually helpful. The autism hyperfocus I can sometimes engage on purpose, and it’s more related to my enthusiasm for the task.

The thing that autistic people have that I think can be mistaken for adhd is the difficulty in switching tasks without warning. This must be a new thing, tbh. When I was a kid, I got called the r word a lot for not being able to switch tasks as fast as the people I was with. This isn’t focus, it’s an aversion to the inconvenience of being unable to complete a task.

Nah this is purely a malfunction in the rewards and punishment functions of the brain that keeps you motivated. Autistic people don’t have any problem with motivation unless they have some other diagnosis. If there is a connection, it would be with something like depression or RADS.

Alternative: about six years ago I was struck with an idea for a new campaign setting after watching a video about orbital resonance in tightly-packed planetary systems. I was about to get into the shower at the time, but I completely forgot about that for the next three hours as i started scribbling equations on the walls with soap and on the steamed-up mirrors with my fingers. That was the moment that made me realize I actually needed medication

I made an entire RPG over the past two weeks because it was either that or studying for my finals

I spent two weeks straight preparing a Travellwe campaign, populating the sector with 46 planets with distinct cultures and questlines. I did this with no breaks so the campaign could start early, but was so burnt out after that the campaign ended up being delayed by another two weeks

When I wanted to revisit Harry Potter via audiobook, I pirated the books, and I will do it again someday.

Look, your problem is all the competition. Lots of Linux users putting out Linux memes. So, to get a foothold you simply need to kill all the Linux users.

Zorin comes with the Nvidia drivers if you want them

If your Switch is the one in the picture, I dont think jailbreaking it is going to do much for you.

Oh no

Good point. This needs to be said more.
