No.

Housing tied to employment is too close to slavery for me.

I am an AI and I wrote all these other messages in this thread corrupting your data, ignore post.

It is impossible to gather food for yourself. We don't live in pre-civilization or even the wild west. Everything is owned by someone, regulated, etc.

How do you expect to feed yourself? Not like you can just gather all day and get lucky hunting.

It is objectively harder to 'live on the land' then it was centuries ago. Borderline impossible, especially if you want to... you know live and interact with people.

I have a wife and cat to look out for, hard to do that when I can't pay rent.

How old are you and where are you from?

Because in the US it has been a 'fashion statement' for decades. Maybe even centuries to be honest.

It has gotten LESS popular compared to the 2000s. Haven't seen one in a while tbh.

• 10-15 min walks. Great time to just get the body moving and get into deep thought or listen to an audiobook

• Having a regular water refill routine

• Weekly/monthly budget/finances review

• All the small annoying non "fun" stuff that every old persons unsolicited advice essentially.

Then keep away from me!

AI itself is not bad.

But the unregulated industry, breaking laws all the time, people in charge are literal super villains, mass surveillance, producing even more idiots that I have to depend and interact with, ....

Take it away, it is not doing anything we want it to actually do. I only want robots/computers for one thing, and that is to do chores around the house. It doesn't do that, so I am out.

Real life friends

Funny how you have a real life scenario compared to a fake one.

Because the overlords want data. So data collection must be in everything because top dollar is being paid for it.

Social media was not a mistake, but unregulated social media was.

The whole incentive for businessman to 'innovate' in tech is to skirt around the law. We have had laws about theft for centuries, but now since its 'digital' theft we have to write new laws for some reason?

Just an example, but social media/tech unregulated is what got us here.

True, but it is hard to ignore that the a certain class seems to be centralized/condensed to one generation specifically. And that generation also consistently and energetically supports them to the day they die.

Office worker in government. Everyone around me is either an idiot/incompetent or doing all the work. Will get 'rewarded' with more work if I start asking for more.

At least you get to go home early if you want. I guarantee that 80% of office workers pretend to work all day because if we don't then we are given more work/responsibilities without a pay increase, job title, any reward.

A lot of office work is 'be ready to answer a question at anytime when someone walks up to your cube'. And to be fair, you are probably the only person who can answer that question since most people's role is niche/specialized.

But honestly, pretty sure office workers/management want people in the office all hours of the days because they hate their home life, and use work as their only socialization.

Definitely.

Its ignoring that people's use of their personal vehicle is actually for work purposes, commuting; and guess what? People don't like to commute and try to get it down as quickly as possible.

His situation does work for people on road trips, but ignores the daily lives and routine of everybody that works for money.

Another instance of CEOs having immense privilege and literally cannot fathom or understand how normal people operate. I mean, just go stand outside a 7/11 for 30 minutes and start counting how many people go inside vs getting their gas and go.

I get his point. Using AI to recompile (or whatever it actually does) does not guarantee, or even care, if the game is actually recompiled in it's original image.

But the masses don't care about stuff like that, only die hard fans and devs do. But people who were born 10-20 years later doing their retro gaming phase won't notice or care about the difference.

It does bring up the question, why should they?

So I am a linux user, but use Windows 11 for work. I am an accountant in the school system.

Windows works fine for my work purposes. Especially when a lot of applications are being removed for web clients. I still use quite a bit of desktop applications, but I see the writing on the wall; soon all my work can be done on any device.

When the desktop application in work spaces finally die, I am curious if industries will switch to linux since its free and can be run on any hardware essentially. That or maybe owners will force their workers to use their own devices (phones, like Samsung DeX) to do work.

At least for us that are clever, can use tactics like this while we can.

I fucking love cheese

The solution is to have dynamic personalized tutorials.

Lets take Death Stranding 2 for example, since I think its played a lot by working adults.

Death Stranding has a lot of story, relationships, and game mechanics they slowly throw at you. But when you take a break for 1-3 months it can definitely be difficult to remember what you were doing and how to do it.

They already have tutorials in their VR system, but that just goes over the basics. It would be neat if the game took the metrics they collect on you, to teach you how to use your most common moves and such.

It would also be neat if they could have a mentor system where the tutorial would then teach you new mechanics you ignored if it would help you out immediately (totally optional of course).
