No. You can study the universe and come up with a way to do PoW more efficiently. PoW requires knowledge to enter. With more knowledge and mastery, you are rewarded more. The specialist equipment can be built by anyone at any time. Any country, any place. If your country blocks it? You can use specialist knowledge to circumvent them. You can also still use a computer to mine, though you will never mine a block now days, there is still a chance. All of this is a very, very important feature that almost everyone overlooks now days. It is essential that it be this way. Anyone should be able to enter the network assuming they have the knowledge to do so.

I knew this gif would be in this thread

Memes like this wants me to use the word "Reddit" like a slur...

The city where the headquarters of the world's biggest financial market is located, containing the highest concentration of CEOs, and have its CEOs injured and killed in just one year. No way!

That's really weird to see those in boxes. They are the main brand that comes in bags where I am at least. (Besides the super bland religious-or-something brand)

I'm not sure how we ended up at "taking it out on others". Those are your words. I'm talking about being irritable and yes sometimes overreacting to things that you otherwise could swallow. Are you also of the impression that depressed people should just think "wow, this is just my brain playing tricks on me but I will just think happy thoughts instead"? It's all about self control, right? If you can, more power to you. Please share your secrets with science.

had a cousin who worked labor and delivery. they had stories lol. Newborns aren't always fully cooked even if they've been in the oven 9 months. Most come out some kind of mushy somewhere, but a few are... they had a term: That's Some Baby! One of my friends had a cone-head kid. Turned out perfectly fine a few weeks later, but he kinda freaked out thinking he was gonna be raising Beldar or something. fun times.

Last time I went to my cellphone carrier offices to upgrade my hardware, they were already pushing the iPhone 15 or 16, but I went in there and asked for the iPhone 10, managed to get the very last one they had in stock. It cost a fraction of what the latest ones did, does everything I need it to do, and a couple of years later it's still purring like a kitten.

Are you stupid or just lazy? This app is full of extremely private date about men. Pictures, Phone numbers, social media, home addresses, mental health history, etc. Doxing is the entire purpose of this app!

Last option is rotary tool again, grind that head clean off. If there's enough exposed shaft after the part removal then turn with vice grips. Hopefully you used brand name Loc-tite. Otherwise its screw extract time. I suggest Micro-grabits. Only reliable option IME.

Yes

but you still have to clean them out

Occasionally one slips through the filter

Why does it smell like ass? Ever been on a public transportation train in a major urban area? You're happy if it just smells like it and there's no actual piss or shit on it. Leaving the station there usually are 2 or 3 places when urination occurs regularly, like on the sidewalk.

What is the point of this meme?

not could kill you, will kill you. Electricity is coming for you, there is nothing you can do to escape it.

Arf arf arf

The LLM still produces what its user intends it to produce. The lot of you people always front this idea, figuratively, that the way the robot works is it connects to the user's brain and then downloads the picture they want to produce, and then simply displays it for them. The act of writing a prompt is merely the interface by which this brain-to-brain connection happens. I don't know how else to say this: that is fucking ridiculous. It's so mind meltingly stupid, I think you're lying to me. I have to ask: is AI not supposed to revolutionize the working world? You don't have to bother yourself with the particulars of writing a good text summary anymore, but also, you're somehow in full control of what it does? You no longer need to be a trained artist with a good understanding of color theory to produce great works—this is the great democratization of art—but also, the colors chosen were naturally the ones you would have chosen anyway; you are a big, smart boy, after all. just like one doesn't think about ever single filler word that's only there for grammatical purposes in writing If you had ever written anything worth talking about, you'd recognize that your filler words, or their absense, add a lot of color to your writing. I think you let the robot write filler words for you because you don't actually know what they mean. You've never thought about them. This is a phenomenal example because, when I write comments, this one even, I reread them 4, 5, 6, 7 times checking for syntax and grammar errors, brevity, tone, voice, whether I'm being too aggressive, whether I'm not being aggressive enough; but you imagine the filler is just busy work keeping you from jerking off a seventh time. You seem not to understand that, if you think this filler is so beneath caring about, I'd prefer you just cut it out entirely. Speak like a caveman for all I care. Why would I want you to generate a bunch of filler words when neither you nor I have any idea what they're doing there? I'm not even really talking about AI anymore: why are you writing filler words in your responses? Stop. Like, seriously. Cut that shit out. I'll slap you with the ruler, I swear.

Sounds more sane than your original comment, but I still want to point out that you are part of the problem if you keep passing on the right. It's better to calmly wait and/or teach the drivers in the left lane to change lane when not needed, rather than enabling them by just "solving" the problem by passing on the right. Edit: spelling

Wow that point just went right over your head.
