These AI scammers are getting harder and harder to identify.

I'd probably commission some art of Shadow the Hedgehog on a motorcycle holding a gun. The license plate on the motorcycle would say "ALL0FM3". I feel like he'd appreciate that.

Yeah, agreed. Thankfully my dad died after having brain surgery for cancer so I feel like I've earned the right to continue to chuckle at them even if they're not appropriate. I think it's what he would've wanted. It's okay to be inappropriate as long as you're not hurting anyone.

Making jokes about my dad's death was actually probably part of my coping method. He did the same thing with jokes about his cancer.

Thoughts and prayers to Vosen, AMD, and ZLUDA.

Thinking about where I could be now if I had done something back then is always a sign that I'm falling into depression.

The only reason to think about your past is so you can use your experience to make decisions today that will impact your future. The past dead. Let it die and let go of it.

Ah, I like this solution. Thanks for the suggestion! I set up GPU passthrough for a VM on a build years ago with QEMU. I'm sure I'll be able to figure that out again.

Haha, I was hoping that because all my monitors are plugged into my AMD card that it wouldn't cause as many issues, but I was mistaken.

I'm looking at it as an opportunity to learn more about the Linux kernel, the order that certain modules are being loaded in, and environment variables.

Cool! Maybe I can challenge you. Can you help me figure out how I can get my Hyprland session back on my Arch install? I have a Radeon 7700 XT and I recently installed an RTX 4070 to assist with some compute tasks. With both cards installed GDM doesn't populate the Hyprland option. If I remove the 4070 everything goes back to normal.

(This is also a joke, you don't need to help me troubleshoot this.)

(Unless you actually know how in which case I can pay you $20 for your time)

I mean, yeah. That's the level of social and institutional trust we strive for as a society. Money is just a financial tool. Literally all money is fake Monopoly money. It's unfortunate that people try to maximize the amount of money they have instead of maximizing the amount of good they can do.

I'd even argueit's the limits of the concept of language. There's a reason we paint and make music and write stories and tell jokes.

We're compelled to communicate in creative ways because we have so much we want to say that just doesn't seem to fit into words.

This is one of the comics I wouldn't have appreciated as a kit. The story is more meaningful to me now that I can draw parallels between the simplicity of the story and the complexity of my life experiences.
