You can tell proton to run any game with fsr1 already

It does. AMD have vsr, which is a driver level implementation of fsr1 and thus works in any game, but anything above that needs to be implemented by the devs.

There’s a suppressed sub-sonic smg that you can shoot without earprotection and people say you wouldn’t hear it over the wind rustling in the bushes.

Yes. A lot to be honest and I’m eternally grateful for it. Lots of nice memories of nights out with friends that I wouldn’t have been able to afford otherwise.

That is at least including the nicotine shots, base and flavouring, but still.

In germany, vapes are already under the same taxation as cigs. I pay about 60€ for 60ml bottles.

Crime spikes and cultural incompatibilities

Their games are certainly getting dumber/simpler, I’ll give you that. Hope one of their future games will eventually live up to your standards again.

TES III - V were all amazing. Can’t wait for TES VI to come out in 2035.

This is not a new thing, even back in 2012 the much-beloved borderlands 2 got five new missions which cost $2 each.

Depends on the model. Dolphin-mistral is like 4GB in size and runs on any somewhat modern cpu with reasonable performance. Larger models ofc should be run with higher end gpus at least, but even in hybrid mode (gpu+cpu) models like dolphin-mixtral (26GB) run just fine. For reference, I have a 5800x and a 6900xt, ollama installed in a distrobox container.

Snowden is rather trustworthy simply because he risked A LOT by doing something he believed in. He’s an international hero.

Self-hosting an AI chatbot takes 5 minutes and is very easy if you’ve ever used the linux terminal before.

They don’t neccessarily need to, you can pretty much always just look at reviews. Now you can make a point about trusting reviewers, but all that is still better than trusting the manufacturer or microsoft.

You’re right though, there is trust involved, but only if you don’t verify things yourself.

Signal asks if you want to delete a message on all devices, incauding the recipients, or only on the current device.

Fair point. Signal would ask me if I want to delete on this device only or on all devices though, does iMessage do that too?

If my current car ever breaks down and repair isn’t an option, I’ll spend whatever many days it takes me to rip out all the trackers, microphones, interior cameras and antennas in my new car.

this is also the main reason I’ll not switch to an EV, they’re all full of spyware. This shit needs to be illegal.

Exactly

It’s more about privacy. Windows might access your mic to get more data on you for advertising, wouldn’t be anything new.

Than to take drugs off the streets? This is good news.
