Eskating cyclist, gamer and enjoyer of anime. Probably an artist. Also I code sometimes, pretty much just to mod titanfall 2 tho.

Introverted, yet I enjoy discussion to a fault.

  • That depends entirely on the service.

    Nothing prevents the password from being hashed client-side, only ever sending the hash to the service.

  • I think the only passkey I have is stored in my VaultWarden. Though it only works in browsers atm.

  • Doesn't a normal modern password, hashed, essentielly do the same thing?

    No sane service has your actual password.

  • Simon and Catherine are the two sides of the debate. The emotional response, and its conclusion. And the intellectual response, and its conclusion.

    The people who killed themselves, landed somewhere in-between.

    Catherine had already thought about it a ton before she was copied, and came to intellectual conclusions well in advancea.

    Simon is experiencing the feelings involved, after he's been copied. Worse, he's the kind of person who thinks people have souls, something intrinsicly unique and irreproduciple. He may never get past his emotional response.

    We hear him voice his opinion several times, that to him, there is only one soul. He refers to original Simon as "real" Simon. He actively avoids thinking about it too much because the conclusion he'd come to is that his current existence is "fake". And you can tell that Catherine picks up on it, pushing the subject only when she has to. Even when she does explain, it's not that he can't understand the way she thinks about it. It's that he won't.

    They also do several things in the story that discourages Simon from thinking about the copies as "real" even as he is one himself. After getting a password from a simulated copy of a mind, Simon wonders if they just killed a person several times over just to get a password. It goes unsaid, but he undoubtedly lands on the side he is more comfortable with. That the copies aren't "real".

    Cathrine does manipulate Simon into being copied the second time. She avoids explaining it in a way that would offend him. Only doing so when she fails to hide what happened.

    And then Simon comes up with a rationalization, the coinflip. That when you're copied, there's a coinflip on whether "you" end up on either side of the copy. Just so he can accept his current existence as valid.

    If you're on the intellectual side, that's BS. You end up on both sides. Both copies are real.

    But if you think the soul is real, then the coinflip must be how it works. That, or only the original was "real". But to the Simon we play as in Soma, that is not an option he is willing to even think about.

    I think it's extremely good writing. I just pitied simon, I wasn't able to hate him for reacting the way a normal person might.

    He could've been nicer to Catherine, tho.

  • True AI will happen one day

    You literally can't know that.

    Science isn't even sure that if it does, we'll be able to tell.

    Right now, to me at least, "clanker" is used to dismiss the corporate desire to hook us all on socializing with their products, instead of our fellow peoples.

    And in doing that, it is, today at least, a force for good.

  • I mean... That can't be news to him.

    So many times he jumps someone, and the breathing sound only starts then.

    He's clearly already been turning it on and off for effect.

  • I've noticed this.

    Anime can do stuff the media being adapted cannot. And it's the exception rather than the rule, when a studio uses animation to push beyond the source material.

    I've started being surprised when an anime is original, instead of an adaptation. And there is absolutely a difference when a story is made for animation.

  • With holo you get actual inconsistency, where EN members can be surname first or second, and you just kinda have to know :D

  • People with massive backlogs: aw yeah, it's all coming together

  • Which one you might use depends on context. Nether order is wrong exactly.

    Sakura is the surname here.

  • So was and did Crucial.

    There is so much money to be made in AI right now, that it can make sense to ditch an entire perfectly profitable sector because AI companies simply have that much more investor funds to swing around.

  • Good.

    But I'm not gonna take their word for it. I'll be happy if sata ssds continue to be available, but I'm also not gonna be suprised if this is a straight up lie.

  • Helsinki?

    Edit: No. At least not the bridge I was thinking of.

  • Did you miss the part where I wrote three additional paragraphs after the first?

    The only reason I mention hard-drives, is to make the point SATA will continue to stick around, to be used in laptops desktops, and especially network storage.

    Plenty of people are gonna want to plug in a SATA SSD into that "slot".
