Maybe I'm going crazy but I can smell it in the OP as well.

Yeah I started seeing it too, the article is just full of AI clues.

I was planning to do that. My work chat is on Discord. I am an adult. Google and Netflix have my legal name and credit card number. I don't see how Discord having my ID is any worse.

The issue is that it's yet another platform that could leak your data? Why would you ever want to increase that chance?

Also, I'm not sure you would need to give discord your ID unless you're sending porn in your work chat or something.

I just can't enjoy reading something so obviously AI generated. Write it yourself.

  >  completely effed on most distributions

How does the distribution make this an issue? You can always freeze drivers and install old ones. I get that it might not work out of the box, especially with rolling-release distros like Arch, but you also don't want rolling-releases for an older machine.

I know it's also me that's the issue. But I just want a Linux distro that works. I've had enough of people saying "Nvidia has been getting so much better recently!" and "It's completely usable now!" when the newest drivers break my whole experience. I would use arch, and have tried about 5 times, but it's too complicated to get the driver I need and I won't even bother at this point. I've just accepted the fact that I'm going to use Mint until I get a desktop. Maybe I'll try to get help on a forum somewhere but idk, I think I would need personal help.

I assume you have 2 GPUs and one is integrated?

_79px · 3 months ago

Yes, the laptop screen works fine but my external monitor connected to my gpu seems to run at about 10 fps when it should be 120.

Several people have killed themselves because of AI chatbots encouraging it or becoming personal echo chambers. Why? Why are we doing this!?

...and face the seductive allure of all those delicious notifications trying to get me to task switch to a bunch of other things?

No, sir. I'm pretty much on board with anything that reduces the number of times I need to light up that phone screen.

_79px · 3 months ago

Well, you could just turn off unnecessary notifications like I do, same with emails. I get like 3 notifications a day on average now, and most of those are just dms from friends.

My browser automatically blocked something that's triggering an overlay to "Disable any DNS / Extension Based AdBlocker to Continue" with no option to dismiss.

So the people on Hackernews with adblock aren't reading this.

I was able to read it perfectly while using uBlock.
