@Gmatom “rare Eric Stoltz set photo”
@cube_drone the halcyon days of “cloud to butt”…
@ismh86 what color is this dress again?
@marcoarment I guess it’s not safe to read the terms and conditions while driving. Take way too long. Right?
🤔
@colincornaby is it common to put memes in repos? Is this what the kids are doing these days?

@colincornaby I noticed this in the repo root, and it just feels weird to me that it would be in there…

Remember when malware pretended to be a little guy? Why did they stop doing that? If Discord promised that you could be friends with a cartoon gorilla, people would be falling over themselves to give out their social security numbers

I work with Instructional Designers and faculty/professors at the college level, and the amount of time spent in our collaboration meetings talking about how students are, or could potentially game their education with AI just keeps increasing.

It's exhausting.

It feels analogous to game designers trying to figure out how to prevent cheating.

None of this is a new observation. But I can say experiencing it really wears one down.

@colincornaby For the last 5 or so days I've been running my machine at half res, and it feels responsive again like it did a few years ago. No more thrashing, hangs, etc. I can multitask while “VRAM intense" tasks are going on just like I use to.

It has really made my machine feel so much better. But now I’m running 2560x1440 on a 5k monitor!
