I am very typical earthling. I like earth food and earth drink and earth sports and earth media. Im all about earth things because I am so typical and earthling. so typical as to be very boring and not worth investigating or looking into because I am definately from earth.

Im a big zorin fan. Its an out of the box distro that focuses on windows compatiblity. that means it comes with tons of preinstalled apps so that you can do things right away like edit docs or watch videos but it also comes with well configured play on linux so that there is a good chance you can run any needed windows programs that you need to. Maybe people graduate out to more unixy stuff but its funny. Im a tech guy but in my personal life I just want to install and go. https://zorin.com/os/

Let’s not make the same mistakes with AI that we made with social media ( www.technologyreview.com )

From the article: “In particular, five fundamental attributes of social media have harmed society. AI also has those attributes. Note that they are not intrinsically evil. They are all double-edged swords, with the potential to do either good or ill. The danger comes from who wields the sword, and in what direction it is...

most of social medias ills come from the algorithms which is basically what ai is soooo....

So cheaper and cleaner meat for my state. Score.

I was thinking of that when I read this and was like. windows has something like this???

and inside that is one of those tube single shot in a pen james bond type of thing.

I voted bernie in the primaries but hilary in the general. I mean pull the party left is fine but im going with the more left party over the more right when it comes down to it.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

yup. also its dependent on what is achievable to do that day. Whats in the house, is ordering out fine?

@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

not only leave them alone but protect them from other aggressors as did the us. This is one of the things with folks who complain about the material assitance. We are actually being sorta weenie as we sorta promised to have troops really. So its a we are doing the least to meet our obligations situation.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

yeah and the current situation is do to the breaking of an actual written down agreement so no surprise oral promises would be off the table.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

I mean number 4 though:

The Russian Federation, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and The United States of America reaffirm their commitment to seek immediate United Nations Security Council action to provide assistance to Ukraine, as a non-nuclear-weapon state party to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, if Ukraine should become a victim of an act of aggression or an object of a threat of aggression in which nuclear weapons are used.

granted that says UN but given the US history we usually acti if the UN will not.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

Don't get me wrong. Im glad we don't have troops there but im ashamed there is even debate around if we should be supplying ukraine.

I just use power tabs. gives me vertical, grouping, search, sorting, and some rules behaviour you can do but I don't use that last part.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

powertabs will give you vertical, grouping, search, sorting, and some rules behaviour

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

I would say its superior. You can create and add tabs to groups. expand and collapse them. make rules for certain sites to auto open in a group you made. sort based on url or name or last used. rename them. move the groups around visually. I do use it with the vertical tab view and tend to ignore the top bar though so it may depend on your usage.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

I mean you can say that about any tab add on really. You could mostly get it from some sort of auto bookmarking add on that additionally updated it based on browsing within a domain maybe and auto discarding on close although it still would nto quite be there because it would discard to much if you kept several tabs for a domain. I mean it might be able to recognize multiple tabs and save the bookmarks alright but the auto reaping I bet would mess up.

meanwhile I have to pre fill out some forms so the sherrif office can track it if its stolen. It cracks me up how the government getting things is a big deal but corpos then no worries.

I more wish others had done me at that age.

This sounds sick and disgusting and I demand you inform me if any such community exists or is created so that I may stay away from it!

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

FB but only as a supplementary contact thing.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

This is heartless. The fuel is one thing but taking away russian soldiers only stress relief in war and bonding time with their fellow man. Heartless!

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

I would not say someone is any type of advocate unless they are willing to do everything they can to improve the situation which includes, gasp, compromise. You just have to know when the compromise is a net positive vs nothing.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

I have literally never seen posts like that. I like kbin well enough and tend to defend it somewhat but trolls/shilling thats just redic.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

many forks have merged improvements from the other project in both directions when the licenses allow for it.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

Thats not what you describe. Troll is used the way you did in my response to you. A reference to other people trolling in some other threads. Not accusations of the main post being a troll. At least that is the way im reading it. I guess I just assume your first comment was refering to more blatant type posts or replies.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

is it ok to discuss other games in relation. doom, doom2, and xwing/tiefighter are at a special place for me.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

im going to say you are about 44.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

I would stay in relatively achievable things like a sugar fuel cell or microbial food production. Things we don't quite have yet but not do to the knowledge not being there.

Unlikely to happen but global warming and general environmental pollution is going on now. reduce, reuse, recycle

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

100% agree here. There is so much fud about taxes but if you look at our history, especially since reagan. tax cuts result in a worse economy and raising them improves it a lot for the modest increases we had.

If you ever want to give standing desk a try I prefer a setup with a high office chair rather than having a desk that goes up and down. Its cheaper and the higher chair gives you part of benefit of standing which is being able to get up and back to work quickly when grabbing food or such and when its so easy to get up and down you will find yourself standing more and more.

Tesla-beating BYD and other Chinese carmakers using Mexico as back door poses ‘extinction-level’ threat to U.S. auto sector, warns trade group ( fortune.com )

China has become a powerhouse in electric vehicles. Its automaker BYD recently topped Tesla in global EV sales, with Elon Musk warning of Chinese carmakers, “If there are no trade barriers established, they will pretty much demolish most other car companies in the world. They’re extremely good.”...

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

I don't get why these trade agreements allow for this. They should only apply to products form companies 100% owned by a member country of the agreement and must be things 100% sourced from the member countries.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

thats fine to me. food and raw materials that are native as well as the odd things sourced from the three member countries.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

everything. if cars are not 100% from the 3 countries in the treaty then it should not have the discounted taxes.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

yes. thats the point. we would not have such a wide area of discount. Only whats truly local.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

It still encourages it as a variety of parts can be internal and thus cheaper. Just not the whole thing although honestly I don't see encouraging car manufacturing as an important part. It should be to encourage local commerce. As you said making a silicon foundry is expensive and we are now desperate to get them made here because our laws did not encourage it previously.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

I agree here. Im not worried about imaginary things except for their ability to appear like actual things and mess with truth.

What music to do you listen to while working?

Personally work in IT, mostly fixing server and infrastructure. Big fan of listening to ambiance music while working: the kind of music and sounds that make you forget that you’re listening to it, to me, that’s the perfect kind of working music. Otherwise I will listen to game and movie soundtracks from Lotr, Star Wars,...

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

with all the meetings and such I don't bother.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

I like the thought of games made on older engines, especially mmos, being able to be mostly transitioned over to new ones such that they would do it.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

no.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

Thats a hard one. Similarly would they go to valhalla? Its courageous but not exactly battle for the daredevils. Drugs of course would not.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

it does not take all that much imagination nowadays.

Why don't automated spam systems use them then? Its easy for an individual but its not super automately like google. At least at my alma matter its not.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

yeah thats for an an individual though. A robotic spam account that needs to make a thousand accounts automatically is not going to make one so easily. spam from individuals is much easier to deal with than machine spam.

HubertManne ,
@HubertManne@kbin.social avatar

Yeah I had no idea they could be bought it bulk. I thought you had to be registered. Granted there are all the for profit colleges now. Would not be surprised if they straight sold them directly.
