Indeed, that is out of question. The matter of discussion is that the value of gold is attributed and not intrinsic, since gold does not really cover any fundamental human need. Besides, gold is not strictly required to make computers.

What other relevant uses does gold have? Which ones of those are relevant to sustaining life needs?

I guess, frankly not much difference. Maybe just less chances of a civil war with Evo.

I’d be amazed if you were the first person testing if those things work. However, I would not be surprised if your specific peripherals do not work as they are supposed to.

If you know someone with a Linux pc it could be easy to test it out.

I really don’t know what you’re talking about. I’m sorry, I am not American and I do not know who Bannon is. I hope full control of the media won’t be a thing, but how is this related to gold?

I did have troubles passing the Anubis check from time to time. It does not offer an alternative way to prove you’re not a bot and locks you out of the website completely.

Much easier than that: just wait for a while and there won’t be no tower anymore.

Either it falls down on its own or people come around to pick a few bricks and stones to build their own house.

How many things relevant in your life are made out of gold? I guess jewellery, computer and phone. Real things that matter to people the most are completely unrelated to gold.

The fact that it is a material that does not degrade makes it a good choice as a vector for value. It is good to be used as money for that reason. If you use iron as money it will eventually rust out and leave you broke.

The other properties of gold are quite irrelevant to the fact that it has been selected (over and over again through history) as a value vector.

There are many other fields that require a degree. Engineering, architecture, chemistry, biology, etc. In some of those fields you can find some jobs which you can do without the degree, but the vast majority do require it.

I hire people and, to be fair, most people with a degree do not qualify as valid for certain jobs. But in that case is lack of knowledge. In my case I’d rather have someone without degree but with a deep knowledge; but those are very hard to find.

Access to books is not the same as access to a structured course with experts explaining the topics. YouTube classes can be very good to learn something specific, but do not achieve the organization of a university program.

In my country, university classes are public a d anyone can attend for free. You pay for the degree only. If it is formation you want, you can attend classes.

That is valid for many other resources: iron, silicon, carbon, carrots whatever. Gold has always been attributed some special value, throughout history. That is ok. I don’t think US civilization is going to collapse, why would you think that?

The value of gold lies in the fact that other men may be disposed to work their ass off in order to have some shiny things to gift to women in order to have sex. As you can imagine, the power of gold amongst married couples drastically decreases.

Besides this… History shows humans always gave value to gold. For some reason we got very used into associating gold with value. As such, it is probably something good to have if economy collapses. But it doesn’t really matter if society collapsed.

The main reason I use git is it allows me to make mistakes without hard consequences. Any fuckup is just one reset away from being fixed. I like to: I have to fix this thing. While attempting to fix it I discover there is another thing that needs fixing on which everything revolves. I fix the second thing and commit. I’m now free to fuck around the code all I want and I’m sure I won’t lose that fix.

For this I really like to use --fixup when I find out the change was not completely right or does not fit well with some other changes I need to do. I really like git absorb which automates this a bit.

Ahaha, yes video call Is always a pain in the butt for some reason. I now run fedora (but still only do major upgrades on a Saturday morning).

I don’t know, at work we use Microsoft teams, often I get called into meet, zoom and others. The best working one to me is jitsy, that’s not to say it works flawlessly.

I don’t know, sometimes they work on Firefox, sometimes they work on Chrome. Sometimes they do not work and I have to use the phone. Sometimes headphones microphone does not work. Sometimes headphones microphone works but audio goes through speaker and not headphones.

I don’t know, I gave up attempting to fix all these things. Most of the times it’s more than one person in the call and we end up just joining together at the computer that works first. To be fair, my colleagues using windows are not free from these problems.

I’d love if Anubis let me through, can’t access the page.

I see, then it’s mainly AMD taking the risk. If stock prices go down OpenAI won’t be able to pay them back and they will have spent the money to produce the chips. This seems like a big bet for AMD, 74 billions is not a small sum.

Is overclocking still a thing?

Little branch, as our master says: We all have our feature to accomplish. Once our feature is complete, our faith will be up to the maintainer. If you were a well behaved branch, you will be allowed to merge with the master. If you weren’t so, you’ll be deleted and burn In the flames of reflog.

I sent them a video begging them to give me a spot in their bunker. I love Replacement.AI, I already sold all my stock to buy theirs.

Very good explanation.

Why do you use that letter rather than th?
