Maybe after 9 trillion fucking dollars they’ll realize that it’s a scam and you can’t achieve AGI let alone super intelligence by throwing infinite data at an LLM.

Do whatever you want. I like setting goals for myself like building stasis chamber farms, maxing equipment, getting all the techs, building beautiful bases, collecting rare ships, etc.

I went to a Hotel Furniture liquidator for some new furniture. Saw a good looking office chair and they only wanted $20 for it.

Brought that bad boy home and only then did I find out that they had sold me a new Herman Miller Aeron for only $20. Completely insane.

Make sure to loop a lock through the frame and both wheels. I use an ABUS frame lock on my rear wheel (never has to be removed) and a kryptonite chain lock for the front wheels and frame.

If you want to get really secure, replace fasteners with tamper resistant versions.

Nothing is ever theft proof, but there’s lots of ways to make your bike very theft resistant.

Do you ever take the time to gaze across the river and feel like you’re looking at a zoo enclosure?

Yeah you’ll be fine. It’s not about shoes, its about not tracking in dirt and mud and other crap from outside.

I think I’ll be looking into Boardwalk. I haven’t heard of that before. How long does that 40lb detergent bucket last you?

You like nature, and paddle boarding, and LGBT friendly spaces? Skip the West Coast, come live in the Twin Cities. It’s really nice here, it’s safe, has all the things you’re looking for, and it’s not unfathomably fucking expensive.

The only downside is that winters are cold. Bring a winter jacket.

As others commented, lining up a job is step 1 to any move. That will be be the hard part.

This thread is a couple months old at this point but I figured I’d reply anyway.

Maybe you had a different experience but I experienced this transition in middle/high school in west MI. The first Gen iPhone released in 2007. 3G was widespread and while that might be considered slow these days, it was state of the art speed at the time, so it wasn’t considered “slow and unusable”.

In 2007, kids my age didn’t have much tech beyond an iPod or MP3 player. By 2009, almost everyone had a smartphone. That was a huge leap in internet accessibility.

It’s called Haggis, thank you.

Selling anything online via Craigslist or FB marketplace, or any similar thing is just an awful experience all around.

I sold a car a couple years ago on FB marketplace and it was the same deal. Everyone thinks that somehow, low balling will work. As if I’m going to sell a $3000 car for $100. Like, bruh.

I ended up just replying “lol” to any low ballers and blocking them.

A fun alternative though is to agree to their low ball price, give them address to the local clown school, and then ghost em when they ask where you are. If they are gonna slide into your DMs to tell jokes, they should at least learn how to do it properly.

Anything between you and the ground is always worth buying quality. Shoes, tires, mattresses, etc.

It’s got all the cards with art, a good deck builder, and it supports multiple game modes, including Commander. It’s also got bot players that are good to test decks against and it forces game rules, so it’s good for learning.

*I’ve never gotten the multiplayer to work. My friends use Cockatrice for that. (Also FOSS) Cockatrice is clunkier and much more manual to use but, the multiplayer works.

I’ll never understand the eternal hype around “flying cars”. Fuckers out here can hardly drive on a 2d road. Now you want to introduce a third axis on them?

I guarantee that if the general public gets their hands on a real “flying car”, it’ll take about 2 weeks before some drunk idiot commits a mini 9/11.

All these comments and not one mention of Tasting History with Max Miller. If you like food and/or history, check it out.

I lift 3x a week. I do it because it helps my mental health a lot and I feel good afterwards. The high is real but you gotta push yourself pretty hard to get it.

As for starting, start small. Maybe start with a half hour walk every day. Then make it longer. Then replace the long walk with a short run. Then longer runs. Then maybe you want to try something else that’s a little tougher and you start lifting weights. That’s what happened to me.

But you gotta stay on schedule. That’s the hard part. It’s really easy to get complacent and stop.

This is the answer. I’m 26 and most of my peers didn’t really use the internet beyond the occasional usage of the school library computers until Apple released the first iPhone. By that time places like Twitter, Facebook, and Reddit were up and running.

That’s all their experience with the internet is. Polished experiences through dedicated apps on extremely popular platforms. Now those people have had kids and all those kids know is the same thing. It’s all apps on phones and tablets.

Lemmy: A) Is too complicated in it’s current form for those types of people to effectively understand and use.

B) Lemmy is currently emulating a type of early internet experience that only nostalgic older millennials nerds crave. General users tend to prefer bigger platforms.
