The image I chose for this meme was from a store listing where this was going for 100k

Lots of server/computer hardware can get really up there in price. Just a single Nvidia H100 (The gold standard GPU for AI training) is currently going for ~60k

$50 all in w/ shipping to the US‽

Allowing such impairments to exist when the medical technology to prevent it is available seems insanely unethical to me.

There’s a not insignificant minority of the deaf population who believes that there should be no “cure” to deafness researched or put into practice because they believe it will destroy their community to have children receive this cure at birth. They literally want to deny children the ability to hear, even though we might be able to cure deafness with genetic engineering or other tech

Does anyone else find these OS wars silly? To me an OS is a tool and you should be using whatever tool is best suited for the job. For me I’m regularly switching between all 3 major OS’s.

I’ve got windows systems, Linux systems and MacOS all under regular use at home

The future is now old man!

Are you gonna share that bleach or what?

690 years in case anyone was wondering lol

TikTok

I mean, you can do that with TT. Don’t fight the algo, work with the algo

Yea TikTok and where the algorithm went wrong for them to show em what it shows

I don’t even restart when installing new software that needs it, I just reload whatever service or dependent software on the fly 😎

Yea! He just needs a single dual proc server with 1TB of RAM like mine instead!

Ah yea, that’s why you gotta get island and install it only to the sandbox!

Authorities urge residents not to taste it

Omw as an out of stater since they only said residents!

I would bring a small portable scale lmao

FUCK YO CENSORSHIP

Respect to OP for updating the image to the proper one!

Health, Financial and Education are some of the worst sectors to work in IT for differing reasons. (And usually, DON’T give a salary to match)

Health, because if something breaks people might just not be able to work, people might die. And regulatory environment.

Financial, just sucks because of the regulatory environment and banks are some of the worst offenders of “IT is just a cost center”

Education, (Well funded colleges/universities might be different) because of lack of funding and annoying bureaucracy

I’ve worked in 2 of the 3 (education and financial) in IT and they SUCKED, but probably would have been a bit better if I had a good paycheck to match the suckiness.

I will never work any of those three again.

Also, the startup I’m at just had 2 co-founders leave

That’s a resume generating event

Finally. A reason to go-to Ohio!

I’m fucking leaving this shit hole, deuces!

One echo chamber is spreading toxic shit and pushing fascism in an attempt to take away all our rights in one way or another.

The other echo chamber is spreading facts, truth, empathy, science.

One of these is objectively better than the other. By a wide margin. Have you ever tried to get a family member to quit mainstream SM when they don’t want to? It’s like trying to get a drug addict to stop. It’s a shitty situation with no good options, but the stream of toxic shit needs to stop.
