I’ll bite: what’s wrong with the other side?

In my city there was a photo radar set up at a construction site that issued 10 tickets to the same vehicle over a period of 2 weeks all before the driver recieved the first ticket in the mail. How does that improve road safety (assuming that actually the intent of photo radar)?

So, one unique example where it took 2 weeks to have an effect is enough to say that they don’t work? While there are studies available through a simple word search that show the opposite? I’m confused here, but perhaps I misunderstood that 2nd paragraph.

You couldn’t, because there’s no actual study on this, because it does not work. It’s also why you won’t. Troll being a troll, block and move on.

Cat nail caps are not a perfect answer to this problem, but still an infinitely better one than amputation (please don’t use the term declawing as it’s extremely misleading).

There’s also ways to encourage your cat to use scratch pads and the like instead of your furniture (cats hate citrus for example, so a bit of that where they want to scratch and they’ll find a new spot immediately).

The simple fact that we still call it “declawing” is so infuriating… I’ve had to tell a lot of people around me that it actually is an amputation.

Way I see it is it just stops being a live service game, and stays at the latest version, which is the one you can then host.

It could be that you’re unfortunately not in the list I guess. Also I don’t even remember if they actually advertise it when it’s applied.

GOG does have regional prices though? Or am I mistaken? I believe it’s not for every single currency, but unless I’m completely wrong it’s there.

Nice. Did not answer anything, did not point out where I’m simping, or being a fanboy. I’m not pro Nvidia, nor AMD, nor anything (rather than that I’m pretty anticonsumerism actually, not that you care).

You’re being extremely transparent in your bad faith.

Please read my entire comment, I also said your experience as one person is statistically insignificant. As in, you cannot rely on 1 bad experience considering the volume of GPUs sold. Anybody can be unlucky with a purchase and get a defective product, no matter how good the manufacturer is.

Also, please point out where I did any fanboyism. I did not take any side in my comments. Bad faith arguments are so weird.

I don’t know, real world data maybe? Your one, or 2, or even 10 experiences are very insignificant statistically speaking. And of course it’s not a rare story, people who talk online about a product are most usually people with a bad experience, complaining about it, it kinda introduces a bias that you have to ignore. So you go for things like failure rates, which you can find online.

By the way, it’s almost never actually a fault from AMD or Nvidia, but the actual manufacturer of the card.

Edit: Not that I care about Internet points, but downvoting without a rebuttal is… Not very convincing

Wait wait wait… If I push your theory a bit, it then means that Nvidia could crush AMD at any time, becoming a full fledged monopoly (and being able to rake in much more profits), but they are… Deciding not to? Out of the goodness in their hearts maybe?

That kind of comment always feels a bit weird to me; are you basing AMD’s worth as a GPU manufacturer on that one bad experience? It could just as well have been the same on an Nvidia chip, would you be pro-AMD in that case?

On the Intel part, I’m not up to date but historically Intel has been very good about developing drivers for Linux, and most of the time they are actually included in the kernel (hence no download necessary).

From what I can find, even though a lot of FreeSync monitors support at least partially G-Sync, the opposite seems rather rare, since G-Sync is fully proprietary and hardware-based. I’ve found a couple more modern monitors that officially support both but they seem to be the exception rather than the norm.

Union of Soviet Socialist Americas?

We are?

I don’t believe in the “whoops we made a mistake, we don’t know what the average Canadian actually wants”, their business is in knowing what we want and how to sell it to us. That checklist you made as an example? Wouldn’t let them control exactly what they want to sell.

I know that when something can be attributed for both malice and incompetence we should most often choose the latter, but I believe it less and less when it comes to corporations (as opposed to fallible people). Also some products which have nothing at all to do with Canada have been labeled with that maple leaf. It’s not a question of “which part of this do they want to be Canadian again?” when nothing about the product is.

In the end, choosing to not fine the corpos is simply a message telling them to continue with the misleading labels as it allows them to better control what they want to sell without any fear of repercussions.

Very fair. Thank you!

I agree with the part about unintended use, yes an LLM is not and should never act as a therapist. However, concerning your example with search engines, they will catch the suicide keyword and put help sources before any search result. Google does it, DDG also. I believe ChatGPT will start with such resources also on the first mention, but as OpenAI themselves say, the safety features degrade with the length of the conversation.

About this specific case, I need to find out more, but other comments on this thread say that not only the kid was in therapy, suggesting that the parents were not passive about it, but also that ChatGPT actually encouraged the kid to hide what he was going through. Considering what I was able to hide from my parents when I was a teenager, without such a tool available, I can only imagine how much harder it would be to notice the depth of what this kid was going through.

In the end I strongly believe that the company should put much stronger safety features, and if they are unable to do so correctly, then my belief is that the product should just not be available to the public. People will misuse tools, especially a tool touted as AI when it is actually a glorified autocomplete.

(Yes, I know that AI is a much larger term that also encompasses LLMs, but the actual limitations of LLMs are not well enough known by the public, and not communicated enough by the companies to the end users)

I’m honestly at a loss here, I didn’t intend to argue in bad faith, so I don’t see how I moved any goal post
