At my work we call the ‘granny browser’.

I love this.

Also love this comments section.

That’s wild to me, but good info to know.

Barf

And not the good version from Spaceballs.

Oh, true, but back then game companies would sell you those single disks you needed. My copy of Baldur’s Gate 2 was missing one that I was able to replace for a few bucks.

In hindsight, I kinda miss the awesome customer service that used to exist.

Guessing OP’s picture is from Europe or a Micky D’s inside of a theme park.

Can confirm.

This is why I have a dual-boot.

I have fond memories of Windows XP working well.

Do not have fond memories of the multi-dvd game installations, but I still have my library of physical games. :)

2/3 of the US states still adhere to $7 an hour, so I respectfully disagree.

Though I am on board with raising it further, and tying it to cost-of-living, so employers can’t game the system and ratchet up inflation in response.

Wild to see actual uplifting news in Uplifting News, instead of the usual headlines about things that shouldn’t have to happen in a more sane society.

In the future, please resist the urge to give people advice they didn’t ask for. Thank you.

If time travel were a thing I would happily go back and prevent myself from being conceived. I’m not suicidal and don’t want to die, but given the choice, I’d rather not exist than have to work for most of my life.

There’s a reason why the vast majority of the US celebrated when one millionaire, mass-murdering piece of refuse was gunned down in the street.

Imagine the party that would erupt if it were one of Donald’s golf buddies.

Or mine: Ron Jeremy.

Gawt damn.

Yeah, I have a gaming-only laptop that is Windows for more powerhungry games, and a dual-boot for my general use laptop.

Okay… so?

Yup.

In some instances that’s sufficient though, depending on how much precision you need for what you do. Regardless, you have to review it no matter what it produces.

In hindsight, I’m really glad that the first time I ever used an LLM it gave me demonstrably false info. That demolished the veneer of trustworthiness pretty quickly.

At my work, we don’t allow it to make citations. We instruct it to add in placeholders for citations instead, which allows us to hunt down the info, ensure it’s good info, and then add it in ourselves.
