Probably all eastern block states. I know its true for example for East Germany.

Now I need to know which one is cheaper! Please tell us your tricks.

Roundabouts would help for sure, but the area sizes of American cities are just much higher as well and therefore the population density is smaller.

It’s crazy to me that you need 45 minutes for a city of that size. In Germany you probably need 20-30 minutes depending on traffic.

I mean, I’m not an ultra fan, only a casual one and I dislike that. The whole over the top style of WH40k is exactly what was fascinating about it. If I want to play something with modern soldiers, I have Battlefield or Call Of Duty. I play 40k games for the absurdity of it. That’s exactly the kind of “I know better what the fans want” that most bad adaptations are born out of. Luckily it seems they didn’t feel the need to change too much.

But admittedly, I can understand that you don’t want to create something where you are pretty sure enough media illiterate idiots will not get that the fascists are NOT supposed to be the good guys.

Thanks for explaining your reasoning, I see it different than you.

Especially your comment regarding the LLM is where our beliefs differ: an LLM is the software plus the hardware, so in my opinion for sure if there ever is a “real” conscious AI, we know what it is made out of and that it’s the collection of programs that run on the hardware (we might never understand why that lead to consciousness, but it isn’t more than what was put in). So whatever that AI is, is defined by those two things. Same as we humans are defined by our nerve system and brain. Take parts of it away and it changes the whole (=brain damage, trauma, drugs, etc.).

Especially drugs and their influence on our minds are a big reason why I’m strongly in the “it’s all physical” camp. Taking drugs changes the minds of people while those drugs are in the system. That people feel their thinking change, is proof for me, that it’s all physical, since it can be influenced by physical means, e.g. drugs.

Now we both stated our beliefs, but I don’t think we will get a real answer in the close future and I don’t think we will convince the other person, so thanks again for explaining your reasoning.

What is the reasoning that you believe that your consciousness can’t arise out of physical matter?

Oh for sure, that might be the case. But everything already written in some holy book or told in some ritual now definitely lacked those sophisticated machines, making all their content moot and you can safely disregard them.

So due to the lack of any information, you can’t prepare and therefore can’t expect anything. So it’s better to be good for its own sake, then trying to appease some bronze/iron age divinity.

Vinegar is perfectly fine for that. With a bigger amount of minerals you just need more vinegar and time.

You are technically right that the water heater softens the water a bit by precipitating the minerals around the heating element and thereby removing them from the water. But that is energy inefficient and expensive, since you normally don’t use a water heater to soften your water but rather to get warm water. So putting another system in front of the heater that softens it first is better than replacing the heat element every so often.

You know, it’s almost like politics affects everything. Strange thing that.

I don’t want to debate politics everytime myself, but the fact stays that at the end of the day, everything is political

Just one question: on which keyboard are 4 and 9 close to each other to get typoed *X-Files music starts*

It almost seems like you never heard of Clayton Bigsby?

While I understand your feelings (I have such a friend myself), if graphics are most important to them, they are perfectly entitled to that opinion! I always interject, that my friend is missing out on great gameplay experiences but it is on them what they like and value most.

Just putting it here without comment does not give this video justice. What a strange but unique way to make a game presentation.

Well yes, of course. They sell you an installer and it’s on you to download it. That the servers could be turned off at one point in the future because the company doesn’t have money any more should be clear. It’s on you to save the installer on your own hard drive, not the companies!

I’m not saying this news article is true, but this reporting is exactly reporting what you are saying: they found out because all attention is on them.

You are Legion?

Correct, they bought the rights to the movie to not have to continually pay royalties for it.

First: thank you for providing the article!

But that is not what you claimed earlier. Reuters specifically doesn’t claim they are or are not Hezbollah members. Just that they saw videos of hurt people.

Just to make my stand point clear: I don’t mean that this attack mostly attacked civilians, I just don’t think we are at a level of information yet, where the full broadness of the attack is clear. If it really would be 2 innocent on 3000 hits, then yes, that would a “good” number.
