I was watching Enter the Dragon a few days ago.

Amazing how a movie from 1973 has better audio quality than the vast majority modern movies. And that movie feels like a bad dub sometimes.

People are severely overestimating the importance of AI. It’s more FOMO than anything else.

Wait until you have to pay non-subsidized prices for the use of LLM’s, how productive are they in reality when the real costs come in to play? You could just train and hire actual people to do the job far more accurately with some quality control?

Not denying there’s some fields with great benefits from LLM’s, but writing emails, answering phonecalls aren’t it. LLM’s cant even transcribe conversations with any proper accuracy and as a society we now trust them to make decisions.

It boggles the mind, really.

Cool motive, still murder.

They often claim you need a proper audio setup.

I have an expensive (be it old) surround sound setup. Marvel and many other modern movies suck absolute arse. Having to pause and fiddle with volume going from a barely audible conversation to deafening noise in a single scene.

Fuck that noise, audio seems optimized for smartphone speakers nowadays.

The LED bulbs barely die. I am still using first gen bulbs i bought over a decade ago. I’ve only had 1 die on me so far. Versus the monthly replacement of some heat bulbs and always having a box of spares around.

Changing lightbulbs is kind of a thing from the past. Old fashioned fillament heat bulbs are hardly in use in Germany nowadays.

Yeah, that doesnt happen in any other system…

I will stop this discussion until you educate yourself.

Not like those soviet blocks didnt look depressing in summer. It is much better nowadays tho, be it plenty are still depressive all year round.

Dutch cuisine primarily consists of deep fried food.

Specialities like the frikandel (german frikandel is very different), patat/friet oorlog, waterfiets, kroket, bamischijf, kaassoufle and fried bounty(the candybar). Or this wonderful Arabic/Dutch combination, de kapsalon.

Many people love these foods tho. Well regarded by most tourists.

A dutch restaurant is called a snackbar.

To be fair, mcdonalds in the EU is not nearly the same as mcdonalds in the US.

It is somehow exponentially worse in the US.

I first saw this video when getting my forklift license, lol. It being an official instruction video somehow makes it better.

Zero. Efficient germans use efficient LED.

So are English and French. And English and Frysian. English is a moshpit of languages.

More a happy coincidence that it lines up.

Yeah but then you end up French or Norwegian, cant have that.

Europe is capitalistic and this post doesnt apply here. The major problem with capitalism is that all the other systems we humans tried so far suck more.

The Dutch managed to tax it just fine. It has the same tax reliability issues any cash payment has.

The tools used dont change the core principles which in Debians case is the social contract.

Slop is never going to get through any serious quality control.

If it comes, it comes. Will be a shame. But until then I will happily keep using it.

Wait until they find out AI is used in the Linux kernel.
