If you do grab this, definitely take a look at OpenJKDF2. It's a rebuild of the game engine for modern machines and is almost necessary to have a good time with it.

If those people are inaccurately spouting 'facts' from some article they can barely remember, yeah that's pretty much exactly the same output.

I've made and shared plenty of 3d models for the 3D printing community. People can certainly make it a job, and that's perfectly reasonable. But, I will never be interested in a community of for-profit model makers. If their goal is to make money off me, it's not a community, I'm just a customer. The point of the community is to learn and share information, to help people and be helped in return. If that time is 'work' for you, don't do it. Or make content and sell it on YouTube, do what you want, I'm just not interested in it.

I'm in a red state tourist town and our overall visitation is down over 30%. That said, international visitors only account for about 3% of tourism in this state, so there's much more involved with that loss than just the international travel.

Only available on Copilot+ PCs

Oh good, I don't have to worry about figuring out how to disable this.

Well instead cars have a complex process of permitting, licensing, and yearly insurance requirements to make drivers are trained, and financially covered in the event of an accident.

None of that gives an explanation of the Force in any way that removes the magical nature of it. Obi-wan just says it's magic, and the midiclorians are magic microbes that let special people use magic. There's still no pretense that this is a scientific advancement, just flavors of magic.

Ha, I felt the opposite. When I started seeing how cheap water is (where I live) I couldn't believe my parents complained so much about an extra $1.50 a month.

Do we need more manufactured drama? The dev made a pretty straightforward response clarifying that he didn't make the plugin and there are some fundamental issues with it. Seems pretty tame to me.

Typical POS behavior.

While that happening, there are also TIE bombers flying past dropping bombs on them.

Quote the script where someone explains the science of how the Force works. A lightsaber is a special magic sword that can only be made by a space wizard using their magic on a special crystal. It's magic with a futuristic flavor, that doesn't make it science fiction.

Because it's cheap and looks scary. The Empire controls through fear and perceived power, not actual technological superiority. Stormtroopers primary job is to suppress dissent in civilian populations, they generally aren't fighting an opposing army.

Magic swords and magic powers are exactly what makes it fantasy. I cannot imagine a worse example to pick for your point.

You need to stop doing that yesterday. That's literally what this meme is making fun of. The issue isn't difficulty cleaning, of course it comes off. The issue is putting huge amounts of fat in your drains or septic system that will lead to massive problems down the line.

Yeah, most families where I live keep a grease jar. You don't throw it out, bacon fat stays good for months, it's like a little tub of Crisco but a thousand times better tasting.

They both are. Both agreements can be terminated for any reason. Larion's says nothing that would prevent them from terminating the agreement, it only clarifies that the signer can. There's no real difference here.

Have you ever cooked bacon? That's about the only grease I've known folks to save. Maybe some from ground beef if you're cooking up a whole lot.

You get how that works right though? If you employ 10 people for a task at your business, then get a new tool that lets your employees process twice as many clients, you can cut your workforce in half. It's not really about replacing every person with AI, it's just another way to automate and reduce your workforce to concentrate wealth. It's nice that you haven't seen that, but I certainly have. I run a manufacturing business and I've already seen artists replaced and staff slashed at a dozen of my suppliers. Maybe not all because of AI specifically, but it's certainly a significant component.

The fact that your boss tells you to disguise it marketing speak doesn't mean the companies you're pitching this to don't understand what 'enhancing people' means.

From your link: Small businesses employ a similar percentage of the United States private sector workforce (46%)

That's exactly what I said.

You're not wrong about the current gen AI, but that hasn't stopped adoption or investment into the tech. Even in current states, there are plenty of reasonable uses where it enables one person to manage a significantly higher workload, which translates to fewer employees needed.

Considering how much the current administration has invested into the technology, I certainly hope it can deliver on a fraction of what's been promised.
