OP is talking about cutting off the troll instances…

Not spending more time there.

Go look at the modlog for any .ml community and you’ll see why people never want to go there.

Nah, I blocked .ml, hilariouschaos, and a couple other troll instances.

Worked out great so far, I’ve even thought of blocking some of the “dead” instances because that’s where troll accounts usually come from.

The main issue is accidentally stumbling into a sub on their instance, anywhere else and mods/admins can step in.

But there is zero reason to ever comment or even see a post made on those instances, because the worst users on them are the mods/admins.

So you just stop going to their house where they make the rules.

Mobile Web too.

What’s important to note is it blocks all the subs from that instinance, but not posts those users make to other instances.

And you’ll still see all their comments, but you won’t get notified if someone from those instances reply to you. You can still see them and reply back, but you won’t be notified

The Phenom 2?!

I barely remember it, but yeah, it was a beast.

But my 1700x went hard for five years. The only reason I tacked the extra 5 on was x3d changes things up.

Now, since I’ve made that comment AMD has solved the Zen 5 latency issues but cutting it by more than half. That’s what was holding it back. So when the Zen 5 x3d comes out, it’s going to be nuts.

But…

It’s going to take a while for those changes to become industry standard. It might be a year before Zen 5 x3d, I’m not sure if they’ve even announced when. So games won’t take full advantage of them right away.

It takes like a 4070 super to CPU bound a 7800x3d, and fine tune some settings and it’ll balance out

We’re not going to have a new screen resolution jump, and that combo can max out 4k 120fps on pretty much anything thanks to frame generation without even touching upscaling.

There’s just not a lot to improve until we see a major jump like VR finally taking off.

the price of Zen 4 has dropped, and the 7800X3D in particular looks compelling to those who might’ve wanted Zen 5.

This is the big one.

Literally the best gaming chip from any company is a Zen 4 and surprisingly cheap

For most people they won’t need anything more than a 7800x3d for 5 maybe even 10 years?

I’d hate to say what GPU it takes to make cpu the bottleneck on one of those.

Great.

So the social media site is older than I thought, and the person who made the comment on that site is a lot stupider than it seemed.

Like, Facebooks been around for about 20 years. Would you take a link to a Facebook comment over PBS?

And that linked accounts last comment was advocating for Biden to stage a pre-emptive coup before this election…

https://www.metafilter.com/activity/306302/comments/mefi/

It doesn’t matter if it was created before Ask Yahoo or if it’s older.

It’s random people making random social media comments, sometimes stupid people make the rare comment that sounds like they know what they’re talking about. And I already agreed no one had to take my word on it either.

But that PBS video does a really fucking good job explaining it.

Cuz if I can’t explain to you why a random social media comment isn’t a good source, I’m sure as shit not going to be able to explain anything like Penrose’s theory on consciousness to you.

That’s a social media comment from some Ask Yahoo knockoff…

Like, this isn’t something no one is talking about, you don’t have to solely learn about that from unpopular social media sites (including my comment).

I don’t usually like linking videos, but I’m feeling like that might work better here

But that PBS video gives a really good background and then talks about the recent discovery.

Well, they also kept telling investors all they need to simulate a human brain was to simulate the amount of neurons in a human brain…

The stupidly rich loved that, because they want computer backups for “immortality”. And they’d dump billions of dollars into making that happen

About two months ago tho, we found out that the brain uses microtubules in the brain to put tryptophan into super position, and it can maintain that for like a crazy amount of time, like longer than we can do in a lab.

The only argument against a quantum component for human consciousness, was people thought there was no way to have even just get regular quantum entanglement in a human brain.

We’ll be lucky to be able to simulate that stuff in 50 years, but it’s probably going to be even longer.

Every billionaire who wanted to “live forever” this way, just got aged out. So they’ll throw their money somewhere else now.

For a lot of people the only reason they’re on social media is the slap fights

They don’t care about or know about half the shit they argue about, they just want to argue about something.

I block a lot of people once it becomes apparent that’s what they’re doing.

Yeah, except the food sucks and it’s full of Nazis…

The article says they don’t want to leave because of their high follower counts…

But most of them are bots, inactive, or Nazis following so they can troll comments easier.

They care about an empty number and won’t do the slightest work to improve an alternative.

If all you want is a participation trophy and no one to tell you how to do better, sure.

I don’t see the point in that, but I do see a point to honest feedback.

People want an easy “fight” to feel like they’re doing something.

They don’t understand that if all the “good people” left twitter, the right wingers would fight each other

Staying on Twitter just gives them all a common enemy and unites them, leaving fractures them.

So just fucking leave.

If someone is still questioning if they should be on Twitter, then they don’t know enough about what’s going on to speak about why people shouldnt still be using it.

It’s not exactly complicated.

Yes…

The ship has Internet…

For official business.

That’s not the same as everyone having wifi for anything.

For fucks sake, how can you not understand this? It’s really not that difficult…

I said:

This was for porn and maybe streaming services and social media, but mostly porn.

And on your second reply you said:

do you think the starlink terminal in the OP article was for military use?? bwahahaha

I stand by my original assessment after your first comment:

Yeah man, you have zero idea what people are talking about

Because you literally don’t understand the conversation

That article is about wifi for personal use…

And the second one is about it being free and you’re acting like they didn’t have Internet before then?

so no, I don’t think for the average sailor a US warship provides internet access 24/7

Yeah man, you have zero idea what people are talking about about.

No it just wouldn’t.

Like, are you imagining a modern US warship doesn’t have internet 24/7?

This was for porn and maybe streaming services and social media, but mostly porn.

It wasn’t for any official use, because they have that covered.

You’re acting like surface ships are submarines…

What?

Surface ships are in constant communication with stuff…

You can’t just find a signal in the middle of the ocean. Musk can find a starlink signal tho, because he can see what Starlink connects to and it’s gps location.
