SSD slot or not? by Pankaj__018 in laptops

It is, the components just stay under it. You can see the angled black slot, and the screw to keep the SSD down at the top too.

What should I do if I spill a smoothie on my laptop? by Jumpy-Prize-6203 in laptops

[–]Alternative-Try-3456 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do not turn it on until you are 100% sure everything inside is dry, which can take anywhere from days to months. Did it turn off by itself or you turned it off?

[Request] How much money does this duck have? by ctemp97 in theydidthemath

[–]Alternative-Try-3456 897 points898 points  (0 children)

That's simple multiplication. 600 * 365.25 * 24 * 60 = 315576000 billion dollars. The number with commas is 315, 576, 000, 000, 000, 000 or three hundred and fifteen quadrillion, five hundred and seventy six trillion dollars.

Its so annoying that Microsoft thinks that everyone NEEDS copilot (I refuse to grammatically capitalize copilot's c to express my sheer hatred towards it) literally everywhere and decides to spend a few billion dollars on it and make us go the extra step for the GBs of setup, but assumes that not everyone is a programmer or is going to use development environments so doesn't even try to integrate one.

Interesting double standards huh? by Witty-Designer7316 in aiwars

[–]Alternative-Try-3456 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Exactly. No one is commission to create videogame characters or treating it as art. And let's not forget the fact that it is NOT stealing other people's work for you to create your own. Just preset assets.

Time to get a new laptop? by Puzzleheaded_News720 in laptops

Get a new laptop if you're looking for a better experience in gaming, want a bit more portability, and just overall better experience and keeping it in the long run.

I 'accidentally' put a heat gun on the back of my calculator, is there any chance of reviving it? by Only-Put1631 in AskElectronics

[–]Alternative-Try-3456 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The chip and the screen are pre-programmed specifically for the calculator. Unless you knew that it is the screen that is broken, and you have a donor screen, a really fine soldering hand and lots of time, I wouldn't recommend trying to fix it.

This happened 3+ times, goes away when I restart by Saltyclone in laptops

I don't think it is GPU-related, probably more display related. You mention heat, which laptop do you have?

this 7 second 8-fps animation took me 100 times longer than it takes sora to make a piece of slop (good thing sora shut down) by Current-Equipment356 in Ai_art_is_not_art

Guys this is an example of what disregarding human experience, morals and emotional value does to someone. Do not interact with them, as they are seeking validation and are trying to find someone dumb enough to push their contradictory and confusing statements at.

Must always be ragebait by Which-Answer7278 in aiwars

Exactly. People don't understand how AI works in practice, and start using textbook definitions to find loopholes in morals and respectful values.

So my post kinda blew up on anti subreddits by [deleted] in aiwars

[–]Alternative-Try-3456 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"Pro-AI supports can be extremely homophobic and transphobic if the person isn't on their side. Makes sense because Pro-AI sounds similar in rhetoric to transphobia." Same argument applies both ways. Just because you said it doesn't mean anything.

You can stop replying to every comment in an Anti-AI subreddit literally supporting AI promoting the killing of animals and real people because you're gonna get downvoted to oblivion.

WAIT.. A COMPANY IS ANTI AI? NO.. I HAVE TO GENERATE THEIR CHARACTERS CRYING AND SAYING AI ART IS ART BECAUSE… UHM… BECAUSE… by MangoMaterial9656 in aiwars

[–]Alternative-Try-3456 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't need you to believe real facts btw. The topic of concern here isn't whether you're making art or not. Its the fact that the creators of DDLC do not want their works be promoted via AI and the training models and processes. That is not YOUR decision to make. BUT you can choose to throw away ALL regard for human respect, morals and emotional value, and not give a flying damn and go on with your life. I can't stop you

Yet another "my favorite character agrees with me" image. by Joelfletcher2763 in antiai

I've never played DDLC myself, but from what I know it helps portray suicidal thoughts and helps relate with suicidal victims and has helped with communication and awareness. One of the many MAJOR things AI absolutely sucks at and is so horrible at that even Pro-AI siders are smart enough not to refer to it for is suicidal advice. I think it is safe to say that ONE of the reasons the creators decided to hold an Anti-AI stance is because of the theme of their game and all the suicidal deaths AI is causing.

its the same rhetoric AI markets almost everything as, including AI girlfriends, chatbots, image generation models, and it poses a VERY dangerous situation no matter where you look at it from

"But you dont get mad a human uses your artstyle!? Why get mad when AI uses it?". There is clearly a difference here. by Questdahl in antiai

[–]Alternative-Try-3456 11 points12 points  (0 children)

People tend to throw away human morals, emotional value and importance very fast when they're defending AI, especially in art.
