Completely unrelated, but is your username a reference to the movie Can’t Hardly Wait?

Is that where we are now? We are so beat down that we are asking for permission to be happy about something?

Congrats and good journey!

It sounds like you’re trying very hard and she’s not meeting you halfway. You can try to educate her more on the condition if she’s willing but doesn’t sound great. My partner does a lot to actively learn about my condition and adapt to it. And I do the same for her conditions.

I like this idea, might give it a shot!

Compartmentalization is an important skill. Apparently Einstein was a terrible husband. One can be smart in an area and stupid in many other areas, for life is a complex amalgam of microscopic acts in a macroscopic universe.

2024 election was second highest turnout in 20 years wasn’t it?

And IIRC FI for Forced Induction?

Just found out last year (at 38) that I likely have undiagnosed narcolepsy. Explains a lot.

I think it’s the time dilation and spaghetti. And they can be damn difficult to spot. Or it may just be pure irrationality.

Black holes fill me with a sense of doom.

Does Yuzu work on SteamOS or did you boot a different OS? Definitely want to get a steam deck someday.

What are the details? Base OS, or you install something else? Emulator I assume?

You can be flippant or you can respond earnestly. You don’t want to discuss then don’t comment in the first place.

You didn’t answer the question. You dumb.

Who is dumber? The one calling people dumb, or the one unable to answer their questions? Don’t use metaphors if you don’t understand them or can’t explain how they are valid.

Is the artist who writes with inspiration from previous works also stealing? Every story draws from other stories. Most art is always a representation of things that explicit consent was not always recorded to create.

This reminds me of Napster days. We can pontificate endlessly over the moral and philosophical arguments. Meanwhile, time is passing and the tools become more commonplace. I just skip to the end and change with the times. The other option is to die with old fashioned beliefs. Neither option is correct, it just is what it is. Which do you prefer?

… He’s not equipped? Your metaphor was nonsensical. Let’s say he did copy his exam answers. Who lost their answers as a result?

Hence copying is not stealing.

Additionally, who was harmed by the copying in your example, and how?

I kinda feel like all I hear is anti AI talk. Meanwhile I’m in the camp of don’t demonize tools, demonize what people do with the tools that’s damaging.

As for art, I don’t know how to ascribe value to art. The Mona Lisa exists. As do copies of it that are worthless. At what point will the original have no value by virtue of the quality of the copies? Will a molecularly identical copy made with a Star Trek replicator make the original worthless? Or will it always be valued as the original?

I switched during the API fiasco. Most of my browsing is from mobile and I refused to use the crappy official app. Content had been declining in quality anyway, so I didn’t feel that strongly about it.

We can’t even refine our own oil. We import sweet crude to our refineries and export sour crude to international refineries.
