"The real benchmark is: the world growing at 10 percent," he added. "Suddenly productivity goes up and the economy is growing at a faster rate. When that happens, we'll be fine as an industry."

Needless to say, we haven't seen anything like that yet. OpenAI's top AI agent — the tech that people like OpenAI CEO Sam Altman say is poised to upend the economy — still moves at a snail's pace and requires constant supervision.

The only thing stopping me from switching to Linux is some college software (Won't need it when I'm done) and 1 game (which no longer gets updates and thus is on the path to a slow sad demise)

So I'm on the verge of going Penguin.

You can just install Linux besides windows. It’s easy, I did it last month.

Just run Windows in a VM on Linux. You can use VirtualBox.

Yeah use Windows in a VM and your game probably just works too, I was surprised that all games I have on Steam now just work on Linux.

Years ago when I switched from OSX to Linux I just stopped gaming because of that but I started testing my old games and suddenly no problems with them anymore.

What software / game is that? it could still run in Wine or Bottle.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

You're really forcing it at that point. Wine can't run most of what I need to use for work. I'm excited for the day I can ditch Windows, but it's not any time soon unfortunately. I'll have to live with WSL.

Not the same person with the program. Just another person making an excuse.
