  • I actually had great experiences there when i need something. Customer support is also fine in my experience. A while back i bought a screen online, turned out it was curved. Took it to the store, a day after the return window had ended(!) and they took it without complaint, even as i had already opened the box. Dude even found me another one without the curve they had in stock with the same technical specs, only cost me the 10€ price difference. Fuck online shopping at this point lol









  • There is the old social media user type “pyramid” of 90% just lurking, 9% commenting and interacting, and only 1% of users being active posters themselves (iirc the numbers correctly). So by that logic, any OC is the most “valuable” since the least people post it. Ultimately anything beyond just passive lurking is very valuable.

    Personally I mostly comment on things, which is generally either my opinion or the first dumb thing coming to mind. Works well either way for conversation or just entertainment.

    When I make posts I tend to only make some when I have a question or need help/input on something. Churning out memes is not up my alley I suppose.

    TLDR: Just post and/or comment whatever you want. Valuable either way


  • I would think since africa is such a giant continent they are genetically distinct herds that roam those territories and have little intermingling happening due to distance or geography. So over time they developed distinct patterns from mutation and lack of intermingling with other patterns, and since they apparently all fulfill the same function “well enough” there is no evolutionary pressure to correct it.

  • Idk personally i kind of expect the ai makers to have at least had the sense to allow their bots to process math with a calculator and not guesswork. That seems like, an absurdly low bar both for testing the thing as a user as well as a feature to think of.

    Didn’t one model refer scientific questions to wolfram alpha? How do they smartly decide to do this and not give them basic math processing?







  • Fair, ignoring the reality though. Way too many people have no access to clean water, or air, or food, or housing, or safety.

    Bitching about the occasional second hand smoke whiff when moving about outside - while there are an insane amount of cars emitting exhaust fumes, rubber particles; factories churning out pollution, and so forth doing far worse to your health every day - is a little like being mad about too much sodium in your industrial runoff tainted drinking water.

    The point being, there are much more imminent and important battles to fight for clean air (and water, and all the other things any human should have) than to impede on the unhealthy habit of your fellow peasants in my opinion.
