it is genuinely psychotic that we dug up literal primordial dirt, scrubbed it down to an impossible 99.9999999999% molecular perfection that violates the very laws of physics, handed it over to techno-wizard necromancers to stretch into flawless geometric god-cylinders, blasted it with invisible uv death-rays to carve ten quadrillion microscopic cyber-sigils into its flesh, trapped actual lightning inside of it, and somehow birthed an omniscent eldritch deity capable of simulating the universe and thinking faster than a billion human civilizations combined.
and our grand, supreme purpose for this enslaved lightning-god?
sending "per my last email, please see attached" to a guy named gary.
Was seeing a man like this. He never brought it up once until I pressed him.
We were together constantly, and I genuinely thought I was lowering his grades because I never saw him study. Not even once.
He biked away and got the highest score in College Physics IV despite being the youngest. He came back to my place. And started complaining once saying “it shouldn’t be like this” and said it was too simple. Not in a snobby way. But that he felt like it was cheating with how simple it felt.
He later got multiple Big Tech offers after arguing with interviewers because he thought they were wrong … and then proving it. He turned the offers down because he thought he’d be bored.
I asked him what it was like to just get things. And very carefully and quietly he said “it’s lonely.” He was trying not to sound like a snob. That’s why he never talked about it. Even with me when all we would do was talk 24/7.
One thing I noticed was that he genuinely enjoyed being around ordinary people. Our conversations weren’t about proving who was smartest. They were just conversations.
@thedimitri@emilykmay It sounds like your wife is not doing enough emotional labor in the relationship. If she took the time to connect with you on an emotional level, you'd feel more connected physically. When was the last time she bought you flowers or really listened? Hang in there king.
@thedimitri@emilykmay I think your wife needs to get better at foreplay. Give you a massage or maybe take out the trash and wash the car more often. Women these days don't understand that intimacy is built from small acts of service, you can't just expect a guy to be up and ready whenever.
"Our main story tonight concerns RAM: depending on who you are, that might mean Random Access Memory, a male sheep, or a truck that's inexplicably become a core part of someone's entire personality."
you’ll get mad at me for saying this…but communal housing is so obviously more economically efficient than personal homes I think it’s going to be the default soon.
your garden / shower is idle 90%+ of the day. meanwhile, shared spaces targets what, 5%, maybe at worst 10% idle.
64bit → 96bit +50%
Rumor has it that the A20 Pro will move away from the 64bit bandwidth Apple has used for 13 years and adopt a 96bit memory bus.
This will dramatically improve the performance of memory bound local LLMs (on device Siri).
@EPPGroup nobody believes your propaganda, you are trying to use “protecting the kids” as yet another attempt to pass chatcontrol and spy on every single private conversation indiscriminately
respectfully, miss me with this GESTAPO shit and get the fuck out of politics altogether
they keep asking to vote again and again despite NO MEANING NO
if this shit passes and gets enforced the EU is done for, fr, it's that severe
and there is one person to blame for it this time: Roberta Metsola
call your MEPs, send them e-mails, last time it actually did work
this is bullshit propaganda btw they are trying to use this to pass chatcontrol to spy on all of your messages, even tho all of the previous votes clearly said NO to that
let them know what you think about Von Der Leyen reading all of your chats indiscriminately :)

Don't worry about it. The Chinese also invented gunpowder, and then literally didn't invent guns because they were using it for fireworks. They love fireworks. They will always use technology for fireworks. They can't help themselves.
Every China story is like: this capitalist hellhole created the elixir of life and demands people's souls in exchange for it.
But then China ruined that market by making the elixir for $5.
