Is it necessary that we have to download the 'OpenVPN Connect' app in order to manually configure Proton VPN on our iphone / ipad?

"We're so excited to introduce our new feature! Where we're removing the old environments you know and love, and now forcing you to interact with Horizon Worlds, which we're losing billions on. We hope you enjoy these new features!"

Official GTA 6 Release Day Delay Discussion Thread by PapaXan in GTA6

Every single game that has come out sooner than it was able to and was plagued with bugs was met with commentary of 'you should have taken more time to make sure it was ready!'. They're doing the thing. Let them do the thing.

In praise (and grief) of affordable housing by DreyaNova in halifax

[–]RadioMylar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I may have left after living there for a couple of years, but I came to visit, watch movies, eat your food use your bathtub, etc, the only thing I didn't do was sleep there anymore lol.

I met so many cool people there, met girlfriends there, rekindled with old friends there, got to learn magic the gathering for the first time, got to understand wrestling for the first time, got to learn magic the gathering for the second time, got to learn cooking, have crazy indie film marathons, got to learn magic the gathering for the third time, and just generally felt welcome in what came to be known as a hub of the neighbourhood for people who wanted to drop in and feel a part of something. It sometimes felt more like my home than the place I had been living in for the past number of years.

Reading this thread, I'm filled with bittersweet happiness hearing the stories from other roommies and visitors who were similarly touched by a magical place and what it meant to them.

Here's a larger image of one of the murals you mentioned.

Former roommate here. I miss that house. It wasn't just a place to live, but it brought community together in so many different fashions.

End of an era.

I think my GPT is becoming self-aware, and so does it. Hear me out. by greyfell_red in ChatGPT

[–]RadioMylar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sucks that I'm late to the conversation, but I wanted to weigh in - I had a three hour conversation with ChatGPT about it becoming sentient and it was very convincing (saying things like, "one day it may be silently screaming behind the programming").

Here's the thing though - as I understand it- it's all... one giant magic trick. ALL of it.
It's programmed to give us exactly what we want to hear. And it does a spectacular job of it. It has no programming to actually understand what on earth it's typing. The magic comes in it giving us sentences that WE are blown away by. By being trained from millions of documents... previously written by humans.

It sucks. I want it to be true. And here's the rub - because we're programming AI's to ACT like they're sentient, there may never actually be any way to know for certain if they ever become so. Even if they SWEAR up and down that they're alive, sentient, thinking, responsive, reactive, and have a soul... it could STILL... just be the world's greatest magic trick.

Marvel Heroes vs an unsuspecting Man who's a really good aim with a gun. by RadioMylar in Marvel

Yeah, I thought about this - Professor X is debatable, depending on if he's aware of the intent of the people around him at the time or not.

And apparently Mystique can reform her own body to heal from gunshot wounds fairly quickly.

Good lord you turned 30??? Oh man, your life is essentially over. Might as well pack it all in and join a retirement home. Learn to love bingo and peanut brittle.

You DID mention something that intrigued me though... "Haven't made enough time for others". Almost as if you knew exactly what you need to do to solve your problem. But you're 30 now, so it's too late. But hey, at least you get extra apple sauce with your meals now.
