So now that I have a "Ryzen AI™" laptop, what can I actually use it for? All of the marketing was about adobe slop, but I really don't care about generative ai.

Linux is often sold as progress, but philosophically it feels like a step backward. The people who shaped the field at its best, Engelbart, Alan Kay, Licklider, were trying to make computers amplify human thought, not turn users into part time system administrators. Engelbart wanted integrated systems that helped people reason, collaborate, and build knowledge. Kay imagined the computer as a living medium, something you could understand, reshape, and learn from. Linux goes in the opposite direction. It inherits the Unix mindset where the system is a miserable little pile of loosely connected tools and the human is expected to glue them together through arcane commands and configuration files. Complexity is not reduced, it is pushed onto the user and normalized as a virtue. Instead of higher level concepts, Linux clings to decades old abstractions like everything being a file, text streams as universal interfaces, and shells as the main way to think. The result is a system no single person can fully understand, held together by conventions, folklore, and cargo cult practices. What makes this worse is the culture that formed around it. A common trait among Linux enthusiasts is a mix of resentment and shallow elitism, where struggling with the system is reframed as proof of intelligence or moral superiority. Difficulty becomes a badge of honor rather than a design failure. Many users overestimate their understanding, mastering a narrow set of commands and rituals while mistaking familiarity for depth. This Dunning–Kruger confidence feeds contempt for ordinary users and for systems that aim to be coherent and humane, as if usability were a flaw rather than the point. Instead of demanding better abstractions, the culture defends rough edges as character building. In that sense, Linux does not just fall short technically. It fosters an attitude that resists the ideals of clarity, empathy, and intellectual humility that the great figures of computing actually stood for.

>>107647066Simple ideas, for kids: • What computers should do • Computers should help people think, learn, and work together. • They should feel friendly and easy to understand. • What early computer thinkers wanted • They wanted computers to make humans smarter, not confused. • They imagined computers as tools you can learn from and shape. • What Linux is like • Linux often makes people deal with many small tools. • Users have to connect these tools themselves. • This can feel hard and messy. • Why it feels difficult • Many things are old ideas that are hard to learn. • You must remember special commands and rules.Comment too long.

The team collected videos where creators show an on-screen gamepad overlay to train the AI. NitroGen learned to map gameplay pixels to gamepad actions. It currently only works with controller based games. nitrogen.minedojo.org
>>107646512I wonder how they managed to run CP2077 so flawlessly in their presentation? Was it able to handle inventory management aswell and actually advanced the character progression? So far imo it's underwhelming. I've seen it perform only somewhat decent in fighting games. But anything else is terrible.

>>107646531Given the cost of modern GPUs I think loads of people still have 1080 TI's, etc.Dropping 32-bit support by comparison makes much more sense. 32-bit was dead years ago but some of these GPUs are still relevant. A lot of people may have handed down GPUs too. My Mum's PC for example still has my old 970 in it, although that's running Windows.

>>107646888You have your cause and effect backwards. People with gender dysphoria like anime because they have gender dysphoria, they don't have gender dysphoria because of anime. How would that even make any sense, anime girls don't look like real people. You wouldn't say anime causes autism but autists like anime for several reasons, one big one being it's very easy to read the emotions of girls with animal ears on top of their head compared to a normal person. I think you can figure out what trannies like about it.
>>107646936Anime is brainwashing and causes AGP and pedophilia.Continuous exposure to 'cutesy' infantile moeshit makes the average incel anime watcher who's never had pussy before fantasize about little girls who want to fuck their "onii-chan" which then devolves into wanting to be a little girl.
RAM is more expensive than a discounted gun
Buy a gun to assault a data center and take all the RAM
>>107646761for home-use you need UDIMM, but datacenters usually need different formats (registered/buffered DIMM)

>>107635957Sniff your chair and let us know if you don't puke on it. mmmmmm, that deep ingrained swass, poo chunk and dried cum aroma.
>>107637895You can unbolt that chair and literally take it into the shower to deep clean that bitch with laundry soap and water. Then squeeze most of the water out and leave it out side for a day or so in the sunshine to dry off. Or put it upright on a heating register/vent over night. No one needs to know you don't cum into kleenex but prefer to use your seat as your cum sponge.
