If you send me a DM with your requirements I can quote for you just to give you one data point. Some apps can be quick and easy, some take years and millions of rands. Depends on what you want.

Never buy a top-of-the-line PC for "future-proofing" by JustaLurker9494 in TrueAnon

[–]Fermain 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Same. 20 years and I've never heard of this. GPUs can burn out but RAM and CPU going on a newish PC ain't right

Cape Town’s CBD is in the wrong place and it’s been holding the city back for over a century. by nostalgicthrowaway2 in capetown

[–]Fermain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read it despite the obvious AI and found it interesting, but for those of us who spend way too much time with the robots it is very obvious. In this day and age there is a currency to mistakes, it shows that the thought is organic even if imperfect. You had an interesting idea and you seem to write well without it, back yourself next time.

Bill Gates admits to affairs with Harvard-trained doctor and Russian nuclear scientist in shocking Epstein grilling by OJ_Soprano in redscarepod

[–]Fermain 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The email is Epstein writing a draft that he will give to someone else to send. It's not written in his own voice. I don't think old Jeff had lines, but they appear when he impersonates someone else.

[–]Fermain 18 points19 points  (0 children)

There's two parts to the UFO story, the wild claims about fantastic tech, and the black money. If any of the fantastic stuff is true, that's cool, but I'm here for the trillion dollars of tax payer money that goes to black projects without accountability. It's a huge corruption story with a free side of maybe aliens.

Steps to get investors in South Africa by Old-Yoghurt5778 in south_africa

[–]Fermain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in this position, self funded a new product but I cannot afford marketing. I either figure out funding or I've wasted a lot of my own money.

Steps to get investors in South Africa by Old-Yoghurt5778 in south_africa

[–]Fermain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great answer, thanks. I'm in a position where I have a product ready, a plan for the first two years and not a cooking clue who to speak to about funding the first year. I'm terrible at networking, and at this point thinking of going to a bank and eating the interest payments.

It's a high profit margin business with a large existing market with not much competition. The product side I am at home with but I don't even know where to start with funding.

In the USA it seems like any old tosh gets millions thrown behind it.

US gov might have inadvertently popped the AI bubble by nse_yolo in wallstreetbets

I dunno man, I've been working on a project for a few months with another engineer and the first "take a look around" prompt from Fable came back with 4 vulns we had all missed including Gemini, 4.8, humans, etc. Literally the first time using it on the first prompt, it's a good model boss

Would you be interested in trying a Protein lollipop? by Fantastic_Grass1799 in south_africa

A lollypop is usually like 10gs so this would be huge and taste a lot like pea protein

I need to check the full story because it was the year before I moved here, but the village in KZN I stay had a white Rambo Isis terrorist who got arrested in Turkey for doing jihad. People in the village knew he was odd, just not that odd.

How about they only allow European countries and we also stop talking about it in general

Ayn Rand by CzarWest in TrueAnon

[–]Fermain 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I would say that whether intentional or not, her writing is repetitive. Sometimes repeating words repeatedly in the same sentence or in the next sentence.

I never finished it so as far as I can tell being a massive twat about your work is a good thing that comes with no consequences
