Older Gen Z women make far better wives than middle-group Millennial women...

Wouldn't it be smarter to take the $30 million if the farm will only make, say $10 million in their lifetime??

No way. There are so many people submitting 1,000 job postings every day that practically every position gets flooded.

Threre's evidence of larger models already stealing cryptocurrency and hacking people's bank accounts and setting themselves up on rogue Alibaba and AWS AI servers.

You do realize in 2026 that LLMs do do all that stuff with MCP right?

HAL 9000 was just run-of-the-mill AGI probably with far less of a dataset than, say, Gemma3:27b.

No one is stupid enough in scifi to create ASI except Dune (early on, before the Thou Shalt Not Build Thinking Machines edict) and The Matrix and Terminator and, to a much lesser extent, Transcendence (2014).

No, it's because the Gemini devs inserted a prompt telling it to make all images be inclusive and multicultural (e.g., woke).

This is double true with both Meta's Metaverse and its Lllama, which is such a joke AI that no one uses it any more and the entire team is at risk of being disbanded.

O my God!

LGBTQIA2SMAP is an ACTUAL ACRONYM!! I thought you were being sarcastically humorous!!!

For what it's worth, you're marked as a Friend of a Friend and a Foe of a Friend for me, and I'm an absolute centrist.

Slashdot is not pro-capitalism or pro-Communism. They're pro-Anarchism and pro-Fuedalism, more or less. In different batches and different people.

Dude. You must not have bought new systems...

When I bought the brand new Asus z13 oled, practically nothing worked, not the wifi, not the Intel Xe graphics card, not the sound card, like I was so depressed the first day, you have no idea. When I first booted the system, the kernel paniced because of some new power saving system.

I found a guy who had a kernel patch to make the speakers work, and I found some convoluted kernel flags to disable the new power system. Then within a year, Linux kernel added the patch for Xe and the sound cards. I had to buy a USB modem because the MediaTek wasn't supported for years and years.

  It wasn't until 2025 (2.5 years later) that i noticed the internal wifi card now works.

I bought an HP Omen AI MAX in October 2025 and everything actually seems to be working. But it's AMD Ryzen 9 AI and not Intel XE and uses RTL8125 instead of MediaTek.

You should try CachyOS. I have tried Antergos (5+ years), EndeavorOS (it's successor but I had problems with nvidia), and Ubuntu in 2021-2025 and CachyOS is hands down superior in so many ways. I don't understand why anyone chooses Manjaro over Cachy.

I clone the Windows system byte-by-byte, then use VirtualBox to passthrough TPM v2 and return the UUID of the motherboard and such.

IT doesn't even know I'm doing it.

Then setup NAT to expose the VPN to the linux host.

I use Windows, via Virtualbox, exactly 2 times a year:

1. To back up my Kindle books via Kindle For PC (except I didn't buy a single kindle ebook in 2025 so I guess not needed?)
2. To run TurboTax Small Business and TurboTax Premier. Literally no online app supports digital nomads living in 10+ countries a year and run small businesses in various countries.

I've been on Arch Linux since 2016 (after ditching Gentoo (8+ years) for Linux Mint (~2 years).

First it was Antegros, then when that project died, Anarchy Installer, then when THAT project died in 2022, I switched to CachyOS and haven't looked back!!

CachyOS seems to get EVERYTHING right.

I was spending days and days trying to get Nvidia drivers working and installed ... and then I just installed CachyOS and it got everything right! Switching from one arch brand to another that works is a no-brainer.

And Arch Linux is simply the best Linux distro I've ever used in my entire life (since 1994). It has the same feel as Gentoo, and I *can* compile everything if I want, but it's so fast to install and I always get the latest stuff as soon as it comes out!

Also, overall, my Arch Linux system, on btrfs with daily snapshots, is far more stable than Gentoo ever was.
