It used to run on this arm chip though. They killed 32 bit support is the problem.


Lol l4d ran natively until recently. Should have brought my steam deck.


Gaming on Mac is infuriating. I brought my MacBook air to my parents last time thinking I could use it to play left 4 dead with mom. Which used to run at 120 fps. Now it doesn’t run at all. Lol


As a lifelong datacenter tech it really sucks seeing what monster this has all become. And I don’t know what else I would do to pay the bills.


The trial is one of the funniest things I’ve seen in a hot minute. So many ridiculous moments
Watching the cops listen to their personal diss tracks in full in court is fucking hilarious


Yeah the last time I tried manjaro years ago it kept breaking but I thought that was just the linux experience at the time haha


What happened?


Weird, I was looking at my dusty xbox one on the shelf yesterday and I looked up if it was hackable yet. It would make such a good TV PC.


They have a rack in my datacenter and it’s the exact same servers haha
People like me are required to keep this AI empire going. There doesn’t seem to be a huge pool of people who are both computer people and good at physical labour/using tools.
I just meant that AI isn’t going to make me unemployed
I do a lot of system administration too. It depends on the system and who owns it. I do a pretty wide variety of work which is why I love it
We had facilities monkeys like you describe but after a reorg they gave those responsibilities to whichever sysadmins showed the most interest, which is how I got the job. I’d rather play with toys than stare at a screen all day so the jump was a no brainer to me


Folks won’t revolt. Your country elected a literal pedophile.


If you ever figure out what the path is let me know cuz any employable skills I have are going to be jobs affected by AI
It ain’t trades because literally everyone is going to do that when AI kills all the other jobs
My datacenter doesn’t host AI. Most of my servers process data coming from the square kilometer array in Australia. We’re looking for aliens
Problem is, cost of living is so extremely high where I live and I don’t know what else I would do to make enough money to stay here. I’m really good at this job, and I don’t have very many other talents
It could be a lot worse too. Our cooling system is a closed loop so we aren’t using fuck tons of water like newer datacenters. In the winter we can mostly get away with air cooling from outside air. And the power in my city is all from hydro dams
I work in a datacenter. I rack servers, I look after the cooling system, the generators, the ups’s, etc. I won’t ever be replaced by AI. Without me there is no AI. And I barely interact with it. I play with toys all day.
The environmental impacts still bother me. But IT has always been wasteful, even before AI. I hate recycling days when I see exactly how much plastics, styrofoam and metals are going to the dump.


The fact that you can filter by height but not weight says it all


Damned if you do and damned if you don’t. Utilize the tools or you’ll end up unemployed.


The US doesn’t really have any allies anymore and is quickly losing its dominance already
As soon as trumps heart stops someone will shoot JD Vance immediately. Then they will all scatter like rats. “what maga? Never heard of it”
