Tell me you're fishing for a bigger payout by not telling me you're fishing for a bigger payout.

Lord British ... anyone?

Who had "earthquake in Taiwan" on their Bingo card? They had a significant one a few days ago that could affect TSMC production.

That's my recollection as well. But it does explain the history and state of Middle Earth during the Hobbit and LOTR trilogy (kind of). For example, explanation of who or what are Gandalf and Saruman (and other wizards that did not appear - or if only mentioned in passing - in the trilogy)...

Duke Nukem didn't make the list, huh?

Yet another single J.R.R. Tolkien book stretched out into a trilogy?

Every social media platform that derives revenue from targeted advertisements or that uses an algorithm to feed articles (and thus advertisement revenue) devolves into an echo chamber. It isn't unique to Discord. My commentary was more on the state of social media than it was regarding Discord...

Will there ever be a social media platform that DOESN'T devolve into an echo chamber? Not as long as advertising is the primary revenue.

It's not their renown customer service if they needed to be badgered into providing this outcome. That's Samsung's standard customer service, not EVGA's renown customer service.

This is the result of under-funding and mismanaging public education.

Or save some bucks and play DRM free on your PC ... GoG link

Again or still?

With luck, AI will make CEOs of large tech companies obsolete.

This smells like marketing spin. Are the CPUs really delidded by the System Integrators, or is Intel selling chips without lids to special customers? Seems the latter would be more economical and have less risk of damaging the chip during the wholesale delidding process.

Could you do me a favor and relay the actual chord width (i.e., side to side across the curve)? Is it really 52+ inches wide? Spec sheet says this: I was looking at one of these lately, but I'm not sure if it will fit the monitor space within the hutch that sits on top of my computer desk...

Not necessarily, and yes. I use computers to help me make decisions; I program the logic routines so I know what goes on inside the black box (or use software from proven, reliable sources). I do not think it wise to let computers make decisions on their own without all potential consequences...

The below is written with the metaphorical "you" ... When you ask an AI to analyze a data set, you expect to get a reliable result based on specified input parameters. If you ask the AI to analyze the same data set two days later using the exact same input parameters, you expect to get the...

There is the answer I sought. AI does not provide reliably repeatable output when using the same inputs. I feared as much that the AI creators would incorporate anthropomorphism in an effort to provide a plausible Touring test chat bot. The last example I provided, "give me a letter of the...

@Grimlakin ... instead of "generate" rephrase to "give" so that it doesn't think you want it to use a RNG. I appreciate both you and @Brian_B stepping in to run the experiment. The test I initially gave was meant to be an example of an open-ended question with no specific answer. It could...
