Humans are social animals, you’re the odd one out here from a social perspective, not that you’re not entitled to that choice but choices have consequences.
I’d suggest just ignoring them. You aren’t going to find a better work environment anywhere else unless you literally have no coworkers.
Still considered a laptop, they have low power modes for unplugged use.
The only problem I have with this is that USB-C PD can only go to 240w, which is fine for most laptops but my current gaming laptop has a 240w power brick and it only has a 3060 in it. The 3080 and 3090 variants had 300w+ bricks IIRC.
I don’t live in India, but I hope gaming laptops get some sort of exception if their power draw can exceed the specification limits.
I can’t wait for the new expansion. It looks fucking amazing.
I’m going to be the odd one out on this.
I prefer ultra customized recommendations, I wish they were even smarter. Especially if I’ve already bought something, I want them to know so they stop advertising that product to me.
I’d rather see ads for products that I may actually buy rather than for shit I don’t have the slightest interest in.
I rarely buy products without significant research, so ads aren’t likely to trick me into buying something of poor quality. I just need to have awareness of things I don’t even know exist.
I use Photopea, it’s a website so no download and does 99% of what Photoshop and GIMP can do.
Made by a single Ukrainian developer, and free (with some ads on the side while you’re using it)

What kind of ev are you driving? That’s insanely high energy usage.
My EV gets about 6km per kwh (around 4 miles)
Counter point, society wouldn’t exist if there weren’t reproductive pressures
Luckily you get to choose whatever you want in this case, but as you’ve found out there are annoying consequences for your choice.
That’s not a secret. The industry constantly talks about the difference between LLMs and AGI.
I just use Photopea https://www.photopea.com/ instead. It does everything I need, and I don’t need to install anything.
Fermented foods are where I get confused. Who thought it was a good idea to eat cabbage that they left in a sealed pot for a few months.
I’m assuming someone got desperate.
Foods that are poisonous if not cooked also… Various types of beans, Cassava, etc.
You have no leverage when you only have one remaining economy to sell things to.
Russia is going to be turned into a Chinese vassal state.
More like the way the CBC or BBC are funded, though I’d like a little bit more distance from the government in terms of who’s controlling it.
By taxpayers, at arms length from government control.
The moment there’s a profit motive in news, it will skew what gets shown to people and not for their benefit.
System working as intended in the US.
Tieing healthcare to work wasn’t an accident.
It’s already boosting productivity in many roles. That’s just going to accelerate as the models get better, the processing gets cheaper, and (as you said) people learn to use it better.
AI will help with that too, it’s going to be able to process entire codebases at a time pretty shortly here.
Given the visual capabilities now emerging, it can likely also do human-equivalent testing.
One of the biggest AI tricks we haven’t started seeing much of yet in mainstream use is this kind of automated double-checking. Where it generates an answer, and then validates if the answer is valid before actually giving it to a human. Especially in coding bases, there really isn’t anything stopping it from coming up with an answer compiling, running into an error, re-generating, and repeating until the code passes all unit tests or even potentially visual inspection.
The big limit on this right now is sheer processing cost and context lengths for the models. However, costs for this are dropping faster than any new tech we’ve seen, and it will likely be trivial in just a few years.
No need to defend it.
Either it’s value is sufficient that businesses can make money by implementing it and it gets used, or it isn’t.
I’m personally already using it to make money, so I suspect it’s going to stick around.
Nah, we’re far too resourceful to be killed by climate change.
It may take out large chunks of the global population, but we will adapt with technology to be able to still sustain billions of humans.
