I wish the Dispatch was still local but it was bought out a while ago. They pretend to be but it's gone significantly downhill since.

I believe that's what they are doing. I was removed from the committee after sharing the studies I found so I'm just pushing the buttons they tell me to push at this point.

I'm a sysadmin for a public school district and the admins are working on rolling out Gemini for students/staff. I've shared all the studies I can find about cognitive decline associated with LLM use, but it seems like it's falling on deaf ears.

What's your typical battery life like? The only thing keeping me on my M1 MacBook is only having to charge it ~2x per week.

Went to a themed beer tasting where they played this movie. People were doing exactly this but shouting the lines before they were said on screen, kind of soured the experience. Good beer though.

Disclaimer, I was a Linux admin at OCLC for a few years. The WorldCat database has been around since the early 70s, so I think that helps the numbers a bit. I don't have any insight into their marketing/sales/end user experience though.

Exactly. My partner and I live in a big city and both make north of $80K, but there's no reality in which we can purchase a house when offers are coming in 10% above asking/waiving all inspections/all cash/etc. So we are choosing to put that house fund towards having an actual wedding (instead of a courthouse one like we originally planned), traveling, and putting a small amount back for emergencies.

Looks like I need to understand my users better.

Edit: holy crap, read all of the responses so far and I have some emails to send and thought processes to change. Thanks for helping me realize this.

I'm a higher ed sysadmin and yes, yes they do. I have faculty that refuse to accept digital assignments and require their students to turn in their work by hand during office hours. I have other faculty that require every student to print out the assigned reading and bring it to class. I've been preaching for "green months" where I just turn off the print server but that's falling on deaf ears it seems like.
