One of the reviews on Steam mentioned that the AI uses NVidia tech that isn't available on AMD graphics cards. Is that true?

Scanners like to do funny things

I know it's not very relevant, but that reminds me of a talk held during a CCC (Chaos Computer Club) convention.

It's in German, but I'll try to summarize it: Someone noticed the numbers on a scanned page didn't match the original, so they hired an expert to find out what happened. Turns out that the printer they were using had a feature that would detect symbols that looked the same and basically copypasted ome cutout of the symbol onto the other to save space on the final PDF. Due to the print/copy quality, this substitution sometimes malfunctioned, substituting similar looking symbols, such as 8 and 0.

Uncommon speech patterns and behaviours. People with ASD are more likely to be suspected to be lying when they are telling the truth, due to avoidance of eye contact, lower stress threshold, talking about unnecessary tangents that seem unrelated to the topic and uncommon stress reactions like fawning.

Fun fact: those gas station pills also contain Viagra, to make sure they work.

So, just buy Viagra instead. You'll be safer.

I disagree. I'm running Bazzite, which is based on the immutable variant of fedora, and it runs like a charm, even without much knowledge. Most drivers are prepackaged, so stuff like WiFi aren't much of a hassle anymore and I haven't had any issues with Flatpak. It basically eliminates all fiddling at the cost of customizing your OS as much as other distros. Honestly, SteamOS did show that immutable distros are the de facto future for new users. So far I know of Bazzite and Fedora's immutable distros variant, but there might be more.

I disagree. The Imperium of Man is basically slowly inching towards its downfall with corpse starch (i.e. ground up corpses) being a common food for hive cities and the Inquisition being an ever looming threat for the populace. Not to mention that if you ever have have the misfortune of being near anything Chaos-y, you are often greeted by the Ordo Hereticus before your life is snuffed out. And considering that Belisarius Cawl frantically fell into prayer when confronted by a powerful AI core of old does show that the Adeptus Mechanicus are far from their power way back when, let alone any promise of immortality for the masses.

Psychic blanks have it even worse, as they might not even be connected to the warp, meaning they might just fade into nonexistence after their death. And overall, being a Chaos Worshipper isn't that great as well, as most citicem are not treated well, not to mention that the ruinous powers will slowly drive you insane as well.

Last but not least is that the end of the whole 40K in-universe might be overall crawling to an end, as the Tyranids might be unstoppable by organic beings (apart from possibly the Orks), so it might be that the universe-wide apocalypse is slowly inching closer, leaving only the Necrons behind after the Tyranids seek out the next galaxy to devour.

I'd rather choose the old boring life here in this universe any day over the one from 40K.

Honestly, that's a pretty idiotic point. Going by that logic, it would also mean that cheating itself would be hard, since not every cheat/hack would work on every system.

Honestly, the main system they would need to work with is the Proton environment. And even games that don't have a native runtime have no problems with more hackers.

It's the same reason why some developers only allow the Steam deck to run their game: they think all Linux users are hackers and would either put pirated copies of their game in the internet or cheat in their games with ease.

Honestly, as weird as this movie and its premise was, it's a very interesting and recommendable watch.

But aren't the shells more covers than containers?

I do get that one wants to be careful when it comes to viruses, but just outright not believing others without doing your own research is just as harmful as blindly believing in something. If you don't have precautions against websites running malicious code (e.g. ublock origin), you're already treading on dangerous ground regardless. Doubly so if you don't make snapshots.

If you really want to be paranoid you can also click the link inside a USB image, or a sandbox. I would however advise doing research on winehq.org if you are running Linux, since it's generally a good resource for running Windows apps.

May I ask what made you ditch your IT career?

I'm in an IT career as well (admin work), relatively a newcomer (finished my apprenticeship 1-2 years ago), but honestly I've already considering whether this is right for me. Don't get me wrong, I love the work itself, just knowing that so many companies underfunding their IT department and thus causing more stress for it makes me question whether this is something I want to subject myself to.

That makes more sense. Thanks!

I guess the clip for (un)fastening it would make it a bit more recognizable for me.
