Why would a for-profit company spend three millions to develop the desktop application, then a million per month to maintain it, in order to lose your personal data therefore making less money?

I misread the title until I saw you said that “there are lots of very talented women in the […] scene.”

Just pirate it after you have subscribed to it a few times. The author has got their share. The only party you’re harming by doing this is the streaming platform. Illegal, but not immoral.

I can’t related more on the second one. Slack and Microsoft Teams seems to be the default way to communicate in corporate environments.

Oh, no, am I on Reddit again?

I’m not disagreeing with you. My mother has been a vegetarian for decades. She suffers from blood pressure problem and constantly has to go see her doctor. Every time it gets worse she has to eat a small amount of meat to boost her nutritional level, but then she always goes back to being a vegetarian.

If it’s OK for anyone to have a meatless diet, good. If further more he or she does it to save the planet, even better. But not everyone can do so, so I hope those who can do it stop pointing fingers.

What? Meat provide like 90% of my protein intake. What are you suggesting here? Stop living?

Oh yeah, you are doing fine just by eating vegetables. I don’t.

And no, I don’t eat meat to have pleasure. I eat it to live.

Time to top-up your EQ, mate.

“Every time I walk into a room she gets so turned on and grabs the nearest stranger and starts making out with them.”

Me too. But I stopped hopping ten years ago and settled down on Alpine, Void, or Gentoo, based on how fancy the hardware is, and the use case.

To me, the hopping part relates more to tinkering and fine-tuning. Today I prefer things just work. I wish no down time on all my devices and servers, because who has time to figure out why my photo doesn’t sync to my NAS, or dig up that piece of paper when my password manager does not respond because of the proxy service is down?

When you say “All the atoms and molecules are still in the same places”, I can’t say I agree. It is the change of chemical composition that renders our body dead. Or should I say, death is defined to be such a chemical composition.

It depends on the person who’s holding it and pushing it. For me it takes at least three minutes!

Don’t forget robin hood and rock on.

I downvoted OP as if this is StackOverflow.

What is the use case for OP for using AI?

What does OP not like about the current setup?

What goal is OP trying to achieve?

What drawback and extra cost is OP willing to take?

Without providing any of the information, asking such a question, slabbing buzz words like “federated” to the title is just wasting everyone’s time. A few days ago there was even a question asking for a “federated browser”. (¯―¯٥)

Despite all these some pals still provided insightful answers. You guys are amazing.
