I’d say Rothfuss is worse. He ran fundraisers promising content from the upcoming book, raised a significant amount then… Vanished into the ether and never provided the promised chapter people paid for as a reward!
GRRM, Rothfuss and Lynch are why I now wait for series to be released in full before reading them. No question on if the next book will come out that way.
Not that it matters much since I think your math here checks out - but the framework desktop is all soldered memory, so no slots for memory needed. Likely some higher density chips used here than a 64GB DIMM stick. Point being, your estimate may still be optimistic!
Still don’t know why the company who prides itself on reparability and upgradibility even released a unit with unrepairable components, even given their latency justification.
No, that’s entirely fair, and I agree should be the SOP. I was just thinking of the recent articles about how AI companies in general are hiding massive amounts of debt a-la Enron style, thus likely even their revenue figures are made up.
Well in this case its lump sum or percentage of negative profit, so lump sum might be the better path here… Still not remotely enough compensation to the actual craters of the content they’ve stolen though.
For those who did have theirs delivered, was a signature on delivery required?
Ive got a porch pirate problem, and can’t guarantee I’ll be there day of, and steam FAQ doesn’t cover that bit. If it doesn’t, then I know I just need to pay the carrier to hold it a few days.
When I try to read it, I can’t parse it as anything other than a “p” or “b” so its not so much making me actively read as it is utterly confusing. Is that a me issue? Sure, but i’ve seen other comments to that same effect in the past too.
So I don’t see it as a fun reading excersize, there’s plenty of that already without adding strange characters to the mix here.
No, nothing to do with piefed. I did read that at one point there was actually a hard code to turn that symbol back to normal text, but that’s hearsay, as if it exists its not enabled. Said user is manually typing it in in this case
They claim its to poison AI models, but its been repeatedly proven to them that it doesn’t work. They also claim to want to bring back older English symbols like this too, not only has it been pointed out they’re using it wrong many times, but in my case and some others, it just makes their comments an illegible mess. Ultimately they’re just one of those edgy Lemmy personalities.
Hate on cars all you want, and the idiocy that accompanies them, but please don’t encourage setting things on fire in California, especially as they start to enter fire season. That’s a good way to end up with massive, out of control fires that do billions in damage.
Just call a towtruck. They’ll have a field day here.
Unless its a pull through spot, this is why you always back into parking spots. Its been this way for much longer than the time frame OP is talking about. Parking lot driving has always been a Mad Max experience
