You need a time budgeter

Whoever has money I suppose. Makes me wonder if there are laws regulating this sort or tech.

A much much larger proportion of users are computer illiterate, especially federal employees. On top of that, the vast majority of basic software applications used are the Microsoft suite of Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc. How do you

1. Retrain an aging workforce to use a new OS.
2. Retrain to use new software suite for email, docs, etc.
3. Or rebuild existing software to run on Linux
4. …there’s more but I’m short on time…

The ENTIRE US govt runs on Microsoft. That’s a very big pie to rebake. Where do you even begin. I do agree with you, it just feels unsurmountable.

Thank you for the fact check

Some days I’m just an autocomplete

Thank you for such an amazing response. You’ve given me so many great threads to pull on. I’m going to have a great time diving into all this. Sincere thank you.

I want to turn a Microsoft surface go 2 into a kali linux machine. I would appreciate any guidance pulling this off. I want use it for learning it security stuff, partly for work but mostly for curiosity. Occasionally I run across malware, trojans, and I want to look under the hood to see how they work. I’m assuming Kali is the best tool for the job and that Lemmy is the place to go for tooling around with tools.

This is the correct answer. Consolidation of resources and power. Sure there will still be those on the periphery trying to make something from the eddies and currents left in the wake of these massive corporate ships cruising by, but the vast majority of the little guys will drown. Unfortunately I don’t see another way for humanity to galvanized enough resources to create AGI in our lifetime. So there will be consequences, but such is life, the biggest mold gets the food. Then come the viruses.

I would like to represent those of us who use Word everyday and either kinda like it, or just don’t give a shieeeet

Fair point. I hadn’t thought of it that way.

“I’m good at multitasking” is just another way of saying you can’t focus on one thing at a 🐿️ SQUIRREL!

Then the toothbrush, washing machine, thermostat, sous vide circulator, and butt plug start a podcast, “Plugged In”

I know barely anything about programming languages and only ask as a fan, what are the real world usages of languages and what are their practical, pragmatic, or ideological measures that they are used for?

Hi I’m, I’m in.

Exactly, yes! Pretty much everything when left out in direct sunlight eventually fades or breaks down. There’s a reason why UV light kills germs, it damages what is touches.

It’s only going to get better. Soon you won’t be able to tell.

Things are starting to get weird faster than I thought wierd would get here.

And a how do you do to you too dear Doctor.

TO THE ATMOSPHEEEEEERE!

You can tell it, in the custom instructions setting, to not be conversational. Try telling it to ‘be direct, succinct, detailed and accurate in all responses’. ‘Avoid conversational or personality laced tones in all responses’ might work too, though I haven’t tried that one. If you look around there are some great custom instructions prompts out there that will help get you were you want to be. Note, those prompts may turn down it’s creativity, so you’ll want to address that in the instructions as well. It’s like building a personality with language. The instructions space is small so learning how compact as much instruction in with language can be challenging.
