    I love The Bear. It absolutely checks every box that I got from Better Call Saul. You can tell there is love and care put into every scene and montage they do.

    I think the main way it can be abused is by presenting false/misleading information. But that's not exclusive to ai, humans can do that all on their own.

    After the last of us, this series really frustrates me, knowing how much we got snubbed out of having a really great series. There's so much really good source material in the books to build off.

    I like using Firefox as a secondary browser, but I switched to Vivaldi at the start of this year. I can't see myself switching back to any other browser.

    To make change you educate people. Show them why they should want to replace the extra lanes with light rail, BRT, and bike lanes.

    It runs fine for me, but I do have a 3080ti. You're basically aiming to set your settings to get you to 40-45fps and then relying on motion smoothing to get you to 90.
