Microsoft says AI is more productive than workers. Microsoft says workers are more productive in the office.

AI is not in the office.

So do we bring AI into the office to make it more productive?

What's the conspiracy? That the wealthy elites use queer people as scary "others" to trick the gullible into being afraid of queer people for the sole intent of distracting the gullible into letting the wealthy elites continue to exploit them?

Your title says "What are in you are top 3 favourite games of all time".

You were thinking of "your", which is possessive. "You're" is a contraction of "you" and "are"; the apostrophe is a hint there.

Lol, you're right! My bad

I think you missed. You're replying to the post about Road Rash saying the game didn't hold your attention as long as Road Rash.

You probably meant to reply to a comment, haha

YES. OR HORSES.

Probably a Mystery Dungeon game. I'd go with Gen 5, having not played it on ages, for a mainline game.

Scarlet/Violet was surprisingly decent, at least in the end-game.

Interesting! Maybe it's a similar situation on Steam, but the payment providers demanded the platforms act immediately (or at least too soon for them to make such changes).

Or maybe Steam gets too many chargebacks on NSFW games and is ok with this? Lol

I don't get why the gaming platforms are removing games instead of removing the objecting payment providers as a payment option for purchasing those particular games.

I think the issue isn't that the payment providers don't want to support the purchase of those games with their card. They want to stop offering their services to a platform that sells those games.

Haha, it wasn't the end of the sentence, but I don't think the rest of the original sentence meaningfully changed that particular clause!

 

I've got a fairly new 14tb Seagate Expansion. It works fine, and I've been using it for a month and a bit.

I don't know how long it's been doing this, but the power supply is making a very faint alarm sound. The power supply is plugged into a Belkin surge protector powered on and with the "protected" status light lit, and it is plugged into an outlet. The HDD is currently not plugged in to a computer.

It's not a beep or electricity. It's a distinct weewooweewoo. I couldn't even determine the source until I pressed my ear against it.

Googling just points me towards typical "my HDD is making a sound, how long do I have until it dies", but nothing pointed me to the alarm sound from the power supply.

I'll check again if it makes the alarm in other conditions, but in the meanwhile, I was hoping someone here might know something.

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: The sound only happens when...

  • Power adapter is plugged into the HDD, AND the outlet
  • HDD is NOT plugged into the computer.

Plugging it into the computer stops the noise from the power adapter.
