Why? Wouldn't you gain a third limb to push up with?

I'm still waiting for Trump to share his narcissistic personality disorder diagnosis.

So... The bare minimum that is considered normal in most other industrialized countries.

Trump is so close to realizing that big corporations and billionaires are only there to extract as much wealth from its customers and employees as possible and that they don't give a single crap about them. So close.

Neither would a human therapist be inclined to find the perfect way to use all this information to manipulate people while they are being at their weakest. Let alone do it to thousands, if not millions of them all at the same time.

They are also pushing for the idea of an AI "social circle" for increasingly socially isolated people through which world view and opinions can be bent to whatever whoever controls the AI desires.

To that we add the fact that we now know they've been experimenting with tweaking Grok to make it push all sorts of political opinions and conspiracy theories. And before that, they manipulated Twitter's algorithm to promote their political views.

Knowing all this, it becomes apparent that we are currently witnessing is a push for a whole new level of human mind manipulation and control experiment that will make the Cambridge Analytica scandal look like a fun joke.

Forget Neuralink. Musk already has a direct connection into the brains of many people.

Competition at work. Finally.

A rare sight in the technology market nowadays.

I never wanted anything so bad as this shoe car right now

At the gym, in the middle of a set. Some dude just walks over and starts talking to me. I can't understand shit because I've got earbuds in and I can't pause the podcast because I'm too busy holding the weight of a small person above my head. I cut my set short, put down the weights, pause the podcast and apologize, ask him to repeat as I couldn't hear him. Turns out it was just some small talk I never asked for. I politely entertain it for a while then he goes away.

4 minutes later he does the same shit all over again. Seriously some people are fucking clueless.

He figured out he can just pardon himself. He doesn't care how corrupt and amoral this makes him look. Shame is a distant, foreign concept to him.

Illegal... You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

[–] DaddleDew@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

I have it. I just don't know where it is.

What if Trump was really into this kind of stuff and everything he has been doing is a secret genius plan to make sure people will pee on his grave for decades, if not centuries to come?

The next logical step of the current GPU development

 
 

Bobbing their heads at every step. How ridiculous must have that looked if it was the case.

 

I am running multiple screens from different brands. Because they are not the same, they must be set to different brightness values to look the same.

The problem is that whenever I boot up, the Plasma brightness setting is changed, or Night Light kicks in, Plasma sets all my screens to the same value. This results in one screen being too bright and the other too dark. Every time this happens I must change the value back manually in my screen's built-in menu, which is annoying.

In the Gamma settings panel there appears to be an upcoming feature where different screens can be set to different values but it is grayed out for the moment (running Plasma 6.0.4 on Tumbleweed).

How do I disable this feature while I'm waiting for the ability to set individual brightness values to individual screens to come around?
