In 15 words: deep learning worked, got predictably better with scale, and we dedicated increasing resources to it.

Are you sure about that Sam? Because one, you’re the snake oil salesman writing this and I wouldn’t trust you as far as I can throw you, and two, yeah maybe it scales predictably but the prediction is that training the next generation for marginal improvement will cost an exponential 100 billion (and that is taking your Microsoft discount for compute into account). You’re hitting a wall hard and the profits are still not in sight. This avenue of progress is a dead end and Sam knows it, because OpenAI is selling PPU’s instead of stock and looking to Saudi investment. Don’t get stuck with the bag folks, the few thousand days Sam claims to need aren’t survivable.

As in my profits, our losses?

Not who you replied to but Spantaleev’s Ansible script can be fired at a VPS of your choice and Bob’s your uncle.

Oh so I guess piracy is fine if it’s citizens getting robbed huh? Funny how that works.

All those negative things are happening in a society that implemented mass surveillance so clearly it doesn’t help. Recording a crime doesn’t prevent it and if there’s no incentive or funding to make sure justice is served afterwards the recording is useless. I think you’re mistaken in who this surveillance is for: it doesn’t exist to improve your life but to empower corporations and state against you.

Before I say anything else I’ll make it clear I think the for profit prison system is one of the worst atrocities modern humans are responsible for, but…

Whether it works depends entirely on which end you’re on. The owners would say it’s not in shambles at all but working exactly as intended.

That’s a great question, on the face of it I can’t find very much info online. Wikipedia has an entry for monotype but not hybrid. The page ‘hybrid font’ does not exist. If anyone has more info please feel free to tag me, I’d love to know.

If you want problems do the exact opposite of this OP. That should solve your lack of problems.

That’s the idea. State actors can keep this up for decades while we the people end up exhausted. Stay vigilant, brother.

I have never in my life heard anyone say you should vote with your stomach. Like I don’t even know where to start. What a crock of shit, it’s almost an art.

Thank you for choosing “Tyranny as a Service!”

Adobe’s licensing model is also a paper sack of hot liquid shit. If you’re gonna switch to an alternative it might as well work on Linux.

Yeah the new interface has restrictions it doesn’t tell you about until you try to apply new settings.

As a sysadmin I would try making the PC’s hypervisors and syncing a VM? Might be over engineered but I think it would work.

Really, games run that far away from metal? Amazing, I didn’t have a clue.

That’s all fine and dandy but OP said they’re not very technical. Conceptually Virtualbox is a lot simpler to deal with. There’s a lot of advantages (philosophical and practical) to be had with a KVM or QEMU setup for sure, but if you want a simple to understand click-it-together setup then Virtualbox is better. If OP wants to graduate to a better setup then I hope they go for a good FOSS solution eventually but going straight for the deep end is rarely a good idea if you want people to understand what they’re doing.

That depends, if you’re going to run a barebones W10 install with what amounts to a word processor I think 2GB should be enough. If you can run Chrome you can run a VM. 4GB if you’re feeling generous, that’s a fair compromise as compared to the disadvantages of dual booting.
