Other models dont have "reasoning" (in whatever sense were using it here) at all, such as ones primarily for visual tasks (object labeling etc). Labeling or the like is not anything like finding the path through a maze, the latter requires some sort of "reasoning". MLLMs/VLMs are roughly the only way to do this in a visual context so far.

This is correct. The truth is that the crime rate in America has skyrocketed and is no longer recorded, that is evidence that the justice system is not working and that the wrong people are put in prison.

The murderer is still out there, CEOs and members of the establishment are still dying. Later on in the timeline Charlie Kirk was assassinated by an unknown assailant. Charlie Kirk is another one of the establishment.

Luigi should be freed because there was not enough evidence to prosecute him and he should also be freed because he is innocent.

Does anybody know what the hell happened to the Funtoo project and what Daniel Robbins is up to nowadays? I heard the OG Gentoo project was taken over after he left to wageslave a while and make ends meet but that he couldn't retake its reins once he did try to come back, then coming up with the Funtoo project, which died a few years ago, but the page (https://www.funtoo.org/) was updated recently and I haven't seen anyone comment on it. Is anyone out there in the know of whatever it is that they're brewing?

As for the hun, their main priority has always been the misery of other german types. it seems to be their sole motivator.

The rust borrow checker is the most disgusting, worthless, piece of shit idea ever. Its not about "safety", its not about "security", thats all horseshit propaganda and anyone who buys into it is retarded. The actual capabilities of the language and compiler are not relevant to this discussion, its about FREEDOM.
I did not start programming to follow stupid worthless arbitrary "rules", I did not start programming to be told what to do, I did not start programming hoping to have LESS control over my hardware. This isnt a programming issue, its a political issue, if you like rust, that means you hate freedom and want to take mine away, its that simple, and hating you and wanting you dead for that is literally self defense. Kill all rustroons, worthless, dogshit non workers specialized in a worthless dogshit non language.

Unfixing it by putting something sticky or padded under the button might make it look like I am lying about its initial condition.

I kinda sorta want to keep it since it was an okay deal (?) at 320+30 taxes for 9850H, t1000, 48gib, no ssd, minor wear, fair battery, w/ charger, and good screen, but I guess I don’t really NEED it? I don’t know; either way I will be crying and regretting my decision. If I got a job on the weekends or something, with the amount of time I have spent worrying about this stuff I could have practically gotten it for free by now.

>If you are American you should learn to drive. It's basically required to live there and made incredibly cheap compared to everywhere else in the world.
I downloaded my state's driving manual a while ago and am reading it.

>Last thread I told you that going for that much RAM was pointless, and it still is.
When I was buying it, I determined that P53 models were the best value while still having enough ports, etc. and the only complete, working one in good condition was this, which didn't cost much more than the worse quality 16-32gb ones.

>since you've already bought it it's not really worth your time to return it and seek a new one for the grand total in saving of around $100, plus it isn't a bad deal all round.
Even with it not having any drive? This model has two m.2 slots and a spot for a sata drive which needs an adapter to work; pic related. This can be bought for $17 on Amazon to use my current drive (mx550 1tb) or, I could just buy an m.2 drive, for ~$55: decent 512gb, or ~$75: occasionally good 1tbs. Buying an adapter feels wasteful given that it doesn't actually give any storage but good nvme drives are expensive and beyond my needs.

>Once you have a job you'll start to understand how little that $100 difference between your laptop and say, a Dell Latitude, is really worth in the long run.
If it didn't have the clicker issue I probably would just accept it and move on. The clicker seems to have unfixed itself a bit? Not back to the practically broken level, but it occasionally (not often) doesn't click with a light tap, needing a deeper press (this might be me not being used to trackpoint buttons). I don't know what I should do about that, but a normal laptop wouldn't even have those buttons and the P53 allows normal touchpad clicking too.

Oh, that was poor wording; I meant to buy a separate trackpad module to replace the one in the P53 I bought. That would work but, I still don't know if it is keeping because it still needs an adapter/m.2 drive.

The only thing that might justify a full refund rather than just a return is that business seller said there was only cosmetic damage--but the partly broken clicker is functional damage.

>I downloaded my state's driving manual a while ago and am reading it.
Cool. Having a car will help you a lot.
How full is your current 1TB? If it's 50% or less, I would get the adapter. If not, I would get the 512GB SSD. You don't seem to be stupid or anything so just make a spreadsheet of pros and cons for each approach. You don't need us to work this part out for you.
>Buying an adapter feels wasteful
It's not wasteful. It is a necessary component if you want to use that part of your laptop.
Once you have a job, you will earn back that money with just a couple of hours of work (or closer to just one depending on state), and the whole laptop will be paid off with a few days work. It'll take less time than you've been spending worrying about this whole thing.
