Totally agree. 32 inch display, 3 desktops mapped to Meta+left arrow, meta+up arrow, meta+right arrow. I don't even have to think about it to get to the desktop that is the up arrow. I do have a 24 inch monitor that sits vertically to

Current stats are that 50% of Americans aged 30-49 have a social media addiction. Under 29 who knows but obviously higher. You can't expect a coke head to not snort the whole bag. We just don't believe social media addiction is li

The internet being free was a 90s cyberpunk ideal. Those ideas were not very well thought out to say the least.

The problem is I get all this already on my phone without wearing a $3500 mask. It doesn't even make sense. What do you want blinking arrows on the ground to show the way instead of the much superior way of just looking at google maps

I have been waiting since 1992 and The Lawnmower Man but VR/AR is always so gimmicky. I just can't believe it seems like we are going to go my whole life without touch in virtual REALITY. The problem is the killer app is virtual s

Totally agree. I am a free speech absolutist but that is for adults. I was a teenager before the internet and it is not like you could just go to the store and browse Playboy and Penthouse when you were 15. If a store had magazines with nud

Of course this is not going to be a free lunch. There are no miracles, just trade offs. From what I have read it sounds like it will be tough to ever stop taking it. I am on TRT but when I started taking testosterone I knew it was for life.

The Contender: The Story of Marlon Brando is a great read. He was also highly acclaimed as a stage actor before all this. I have to say though as a huge Brando fan that comparing Superman to Apocalypse Now is utter blasphemy.

People act as if we are drowning in War and Peace level masterpieces that AI is going to displace. There is absolutely nothing going on culturally. "I am not into all this derivative AI crap. I like the creativity of humans. Do you wan

I would say I am more shocked by the lack of seeing AI being used. Given the LLM hype and over a year in, I was expecting there would be all these "why didn't I think of that" uses by now. I can't think of a single examp
