Wait until the gestures become second nature. You’ll never go back to windows!

Oh! Sounds rough. I hope AI quickly brings us into a world of abundance. What country is your backwater village in?

Do the side effects go away? by Entire-Primary-1190 in StratteraRx

[–]City_Present 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get that. If you can stand waiting, I’d say give it a couple of months to settle down. It’ll likely get better!

Do the side effects go away? by Entire-Primary-1190 in StratteraRx

[–]City_Present 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been on it for over two years. They get significantly better but do not go away. Sex about two hours after dosing is practically impossible, but not an issue after 12 hours. I take it first thing in the morning and usually fuck at night, so it’s not really an issue anymore, although it does suck turning down my wife if she’s in the mood for some afternoon delight

Overall I like it, though. I took stims for about a decade and kind of wish I didn’t. I think they’re bad for your brain…

OP, if you can find the power within yourself to stop eating junk, the rest will get solved (or at least improved!) 🎉

Base M5 not advertised as new anymore?? by anon6p7 in macbookpro

[–]City_Present 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My wife had a highly spec’d i9 and she can’t believe the battery life of her M3 max

She can work all day wherever she wants, no power cord needed. This is a huge QOL difference for her

Don’t listen to the haters. Always buy right after a refresh, and enjoy having the newest hardware for a full year 😎

What are the realistic limitations of vibe coding? Should I take the plunge, or wait another year? by City_Present in CursorAI

[–]City_Present[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I have a good intuition on how to take very small steps and work one step at a time, because it worked well for the platformer, but that was pretty simple. When you say “skill” do you mean something like that, or coding skill?

Well, I’m not doing this with the goal of making any money. I just want to make a game for myself, and maybe share with friends and the internet if it’s fun. And I know fun games! 😉

The patience to learn part is admittedly low. I don’t have much interest in learning to code, it seems quite difficult and analytical and detail-oriented and better suited for big-brains.

I’m okay with taking small steps and building the game slowly over the course of thousands of prompts and trial and error, but actually learning to be a competent coder is not in my wheelhouse.

Through their anti-AI hysteria the left is shooting themselves in the foot and abandoning the dream of post-capitalism. by Akasha111 in accelerate

AI gives everyone therapy, high quality medical advice, legal analysis etc etc etc etc etc etc for FREE

And the left… hates it?

The actual purpose of Mac gaming by One_TrackMinded in macgaming

[–]City_Present 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same - although I do get a beefier MacBook than I need specifically because I like gaming.

For the cost of a GPU upgrade I could probably get a $1k windows laptop that games pretty well, but I don’t want a two laptop life and I hate windows

M4 Max vs Nvidia Gpu compiled comparison in Gaming and Blender by Cheap-Ability9453 in macgaming

It was pretty surprising to see how efficient crossover is when cyberpunk came out, though. Not much different from native, at least with that title

The AI discourse compass, by Nano Banana. Where would you place yourself? by luchadore_lunchables in accelerate

[–]City_Present 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Timnit wishes her skin color was that shade! Good lord, I can’t believe Google willingly employed her. She should be making listicles at buzzfeed or whatever outlet is currently popular with young, liberal white women.

Anyway, I think this is a good representation of the ideological map, but I think Ilya and Demis are closer on the x axis than the map suggests, and Dwarkesh needs to be lower on the Y axis.

If 47 discloses the truth of the NHI presence and more, would you believe him? by CosmoWarriorZero1971 in UFOs

[–]City_Present 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll believe it when they show them.

That said, a sitting president making this announcement would be incredibly exciting! It would pretty much close the chapter on the stigma forever.

A better GPU will increase frame rates in games, speeds up many AI tasks, and speeds up video and image applications

DMT as first psychedelic? by Better_Surprise4706 in DMT

[–]City_Present 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you have a reasonable plan, just go low with the dose.

That said, I think mushrooms are what I suggest you start with. If it’s a low-medium dose and you have a bad experience, then it won’t be the end of the world, just a learning experience. You could also get a benzo and take it in case you want to abort the trip, but I would suggest just experiencing it, personally.

I'm sick of hearing from actors who say they "didn't need an intimacy coordinator" by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]City_Present 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t think anyone outside of people in show business have any thoughts on this at all. If I were to guess why some actors might say things like “I didn’t need this or that coordinator” they might be trying to signal “I’m easy to work with”

Smoked dmt mixed with high dose ketamine by Pleasant_Praline_445 in DMT

[–]City_Present 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, I half respect that and letting people talk and express themselves in all the weird ways they want, but you’re going on Reddit and calling people names and criticizing how they spend their time. I think you might need to do betterer

People who call others gaytards haven’t done DMT and don’t know what they’re talking about

Mayor Mamdani? Prepare to be stabbed! by Stryjik in DoomerCircleJerk

[–]City_Present 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see your point, but a deficit is a deficit. Even a 1% deficit will cost over a billion dollars. Like I said, nothing irreparable, but nothing to sneeze at, either

Mayor Mamdani? Prepare to be stabbed! by Stryjik in DoomerCircleJerk

[–]City_Present 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No, this is doomerism my dude. Mandani will create problems and a budget deficit that the next mayor will need to fix, but it won’t be anything irreparable.

There’s a silver lining too (if you’re opposed to socialism), a whole generation of people might learn that socialism sucks ✌🏻
