I mean, I get where they are coming from. Like nobody is stopping you from traveling across your country/as far as you can go without a passport. “Anyone” physically fit to do so can quit their job, lose their home and walk. You can try to catch and cook your own food. Or scavenge and beg. You can see sights and explore nature for free.
All that being said, that’s obviously not the type of traveling people want to do. It works if you’re already broke and young and fit (and in some countries, not a minority), but if you want to keep your job and go other places quickly, that shits expensive and the OP knows this and is just being pedantic by saying all you need is courage.

Yeah the difference is I don’t have to deal with hair outside of the shower :) It used to get in my face, I had to cut it, I’d have to get it just right when putting headphones on, and it would look weird after taking off a hat. To be fair, it was more than a couple inches long.

This is true, but I do that with an electric razor in the shower. It takes just a few minutes and I’m nice and warm and cozy in hot water while I do it. And if I skip a few days, it doesn’t matter (unless you don’t like the look of a little fuzz)

I did it last year and it was so worth it. I’m not close to having a receding hairline or anything. I just said “fuck washing and styling hair” and now I have a chrome dome and I love it.

There’s no defense here. You didn’t get the joke, that’s okay, move on.
- Comment on People assume I can't speak Welsh because I'm not white 4 weeks ago:
It was a joke, not a real comparison. I just happen to not be able to speak any other language.
- Comment on People assume I can't speak Welsh because I'm not white 4 weeks ago:
People assume I can’t speak Chinese because I’m a white American. They are correct.

Nope.

Oh yeah I know all about that, I’m talking about what it actually uses within the JVM 😅 It’s a messy monster of a game once modded, and there’s really nothing you can do about it other than some slight optimizations here and there.

Is this how Costco keeps their hotdog combo so cheap?

It makes me cry when modded minecraft uses 100% of my CPU and eats up 20gb of ram. (This is only a little bit java’s fault)

The discussion that you’re looking for doesn’t exist. The reasons you listed - people who don’t like AI simply think those reasons drastically outweigh the benefits. So much so that it’s not even worth discussing. There’s no deeper meaning to it.

Seems like you know the answer to your own question and you’re just looking to argue and tell people who dislike it they’re wrong.

Honestly I’m not too concerned for this reason. I already don’t support them. Worst case I continue on like normal.

Hey I’ll play hundreds of hours of overwatch and minecraft with you if you want. Then at least you’ll know I’m real.

Yeah, I think we’re all in agreement about that here. But everyone isn’t disarmed. I won’t give up my gun until I know with 99% certainty that your average burglar won’t get a hold of an illegal firearm.
- Comment on Anon breaks up 9 months ago:
I didn’t ask to be born in a country where burglars are likely to have firearms. But now that I am, I have to react to that fact myself.
- Comment on Anon breaks up 9 months ago:
It perpetuates itself. If someone thinks there is a significant probability a burglar might have a gun, getting a gun themselves can increase their chance of survival. This is even ignoring the actual culture around it, where people want guns “just to have them”.

I will always miss it. I love the glass aesthetic. It never went out of style in my head.
- Comment on Why did AT&T think "Eye of Sauron" was the way to go? 9 months ago:
I have one of these in my town. It’s a cell tower dead center in the middle of town, and they boxed it up in a building-like facade and put that logo at the top. Massive eye of sauron vibes. It’s the tallest thing in the city.

you can assign independent applications > I know you can do this in windows without needing an extra sound controller it’s in ‘Settings>system>Sound>Volume Mixer’
Yeah, but separate physical controls are beneficial when you have full-screen apps, are busy, don’t want to lose your place, or if you need to do it more frequently and quickly than the sound mixer allows.
Linux largely has this too, but in both OS’s it’s less convenient than reaching over and quickly pressing a button or sliding a slider in many scenarios.

I think the Spotify application may be able to, I assume this is what OP was talking about.
- Comment on It really fucks with my recommendations, but fuck em™ 10 months ago:
Yeah that one is pricey, but you can certainly get cheap ones for a fraction of the price. Most people don’t need the one I have, and smaller ones can serve the same purpose.
- Comment on It really fucks with my recommendations, but fuck em™ 10 months ago:
If you have a desktop and not a laptop, it’s always a great idea to get a separate sound controller. Either a dac/amp for nice headphones, volume controls on a wireless headset, or even buy a sound mixer like the rodecaster duo so you can assign independent applications to each physical slider on the mixer. I do that last one and it’s such a quality of life improvement if you use your PC a lot.
All of these options can’t be seen from Spotify.

You can already do that for the switch 2?
