Are there any good casual/low-stress mobile games that aren't filled with microtransactions? For example: easy puzzle games, match-3 games, low-difficulty adventure games, or clicker-style games....
Nonograms Katana. I guess there are micro transactions for useless crap but it's not pay to win. If you're on iOS, it's just the puzzles but if you're on Android, it includes a "mini game" where you...build out a village? And fight monsters in dungeons? It's really weird....but I'm in it for the puzzles.
I certainly don't want to argue about which is better as I haven't played that one but Katana also has 155k puzzles! Users add a ton each day and you can follow your favorite artists. No purchase necessary and no ads (unless you watch one for some of the aforemented useless stuff)
I will say that there's plenty of garbage puzzles due to them being user-generated. And a good portion are color nonograms which I don't like all that much
Just like in the title my PC has an issue when it won't turn on. Power button does nothing, fans do not spin, PC is completely dead. First time it happened was when I put it to sleep, sometimes it wouldn't wake up so I just avoided putting it to sleep as a temporary solution that become quite permanent... Simple power off worked...
I feel kind of bad commenting on his physical appearance but as a guy who balded in the same pattern....fuckin shave your head, dude. Or, since you're rich as fuck, spent the 10k for a transplant. It looks so bad and not in a "wow it's ugly but he can sure pull it off" kind of way. More like an "I never rescheduled the appointment I missed at the barber" kind of way
Although Lemmy's userbase is quite large,it still is small enough that I do often see the same people in comment sections. It feels though, that I should recognise more names, because I can only remember around 5 individual ones.
I thought the doorbell camera worked great with frigate, is that not the case? I don't have a need for cameras yet but that was on my shopping list...all cameras will be on a locked down vlan so it's fine if it TRIES to phone home if it still works "offline"

I saw that which is why I'm willing to give them another chance. I really don't think Linus is a scummy guy or anything, they just grew too fast without thinking.
I haven't had a strong desire to get back into the channel but if a video pops up on my feed again, I might resub.
I agree but it did shake my confidence enough to make me back off. I watched LTT mostly for entertainment (GN for news and reviews) and I've since "filled that spot" so it'll probably only make its way back into my watch list once a different thing falls off.
As I've gotten older as a player, I have found myself dropping some eras of gaming that I used to be nostalgic for. One of them is the 8-bit era, the NES days. I have played some of the best that system had to offer and I will never say that system didn't have any good games....

It's crazy to me that anyone thinks it does anything. How can someone who cares enough about AI not know the controversies about OpenAI's training data?
The people and organizations building LLMs do not give a fuck if you add that garbage to your comment or not.
I just had a short chat with someone saying something I agreed. It's not like I'm making posts about it....or replying to week-old comments by someone doing the thing I find annoying.
You have to see the irony in this, right? You are way more annoyed at my comment than I am by your clutter.
A 2 day difference doesn't make it less of a weird thing to do. Sorry you're so butthurt that I rolled my eyes at the useless crap in your comments that commercial AI companies are going to ignore.

I wholly agree with your overall point but that's not why this exists. The ruling class is not so benevolent to give people jobs just to make sure they're fed - they don't care. This technology exists because it's good for the shareholders. Data - and control of said data - is valuable and their bosses want it. It's all about profits and consolidated power - this job would not exist if not for its benefit to the ruling class.
"Bullshit work" is stuff like paper pushing and those are the jobs that are disappearing with automation.
