Exactly, targeted ads aren't there to find the things you want, they're there to convince you to buy something you didn't want.

Giving people more time off work solves so many issues: it gives people more time to live healthy, take care of kids and just have more fun in the short time we have in life.
Instead tech executives believe the working day should be increased to 12 hours.
According to WINE itself, WINE is an emulator.
Ultimately there's a spectrum between emulation and native code and where you draw the line is an arbitrary and subjective choice.
> A class action lawsuit alleges Visa, Mastercard and some of America's largest banks have conspired to artificially inflate merchants' credit card transaction fees.
If they didn't conspire together and actually competed then they wouldn't be able to charge such high fees as they would surely try to undercut each other.
Don't do this, you might lose data or mess stuff up. Just use task manager to kill explorer.exe before restarting. Or probably you can just kill explorer.exe and then go to File > Run new task, type "explorer" and press OK to start a new instance which should fix everything without restarting.
The CCP would like nothing more than everyone living in a democracy saying they're just as oppressed as those living in China. Then their own citizens might abandon such foolish notions as human rights.
We should point out the hypocrisy of our governments but not by using that hypocrisy to minimize China's human rights abuses.
In the actual game, NPCs do care, in fact they often won't shut up about it. They just don't let it affect their lives, which is the point the OP is making.
> When the metaphorical dragon comes to burn down your village, are you going to shrug and go back to looping your hammer_nail_03 animation?
When such a disaster strikes a village those are often scripted events that do change the loops of the NPCs previously inhabiting the village. They are programmed to adapt to a new cycle of rebuilding the village or even assisting the main character in dealing with the threat.
It's funny that the assumption is the NPCs don't care about anything that happens in the world when there are games with NPCs engaging in entire rebellions against their oppressors. It's just that NPCs don't care beyond their immediate objectives being fulfilled. Once the rebellion succeeds and the tyrant is overthrown most of them just settle back into their usual loop.
Not saying I agree with it, because it sends the wrong signal, but I can understand the reasoning at least.
Isn't that exactly a concern for those who find meaning in other things than their job? If you find meaning in your job then getting paid enough to support your family is obviously important, but it is ultimately a secondary concern.
Why use something as error-prone as an AI for this simple task? I hope they at least add a "Press 1 for Yes, 2 for no" as a backup.
I'm confused, don't you want to reach your deductible as soon as possible? Isn't that when your insurance actually starts paying out?
No matter what you think about circumcision, elective surgeries should simply not be performed on children until they're old enough to make an informed decision about their own body.
Because it's a trade-off, just like stability is, they're both software bugs in the end so mitigating them has similar pros and cons.
Besides, LLMs are not a simulation of the physics involved in human consciousness to begin with.
