  • It's just a generic warning, you can delete memories manually. Plus the chat screenshot doesn't indicate any memory creation, it appears as a status message before the response.

  • I'm aware of slash commands. If it's a /sarcasm command, why would it be at the end of the statement?What's your source for this? I'm pretty sure "/s" means "end of sarcasm", borrowed from XML/HTML.

  • Are we assuming open windows or something? Either way, I've never seen ceiling fans used for ventilation, only for the same purpose as a floor fan, blowing air at you so you can cool down. Is ventilation a common use case in some places?

  • Does this person never leave their room? Why run the fan when the room isn't occupied? That's just wasted electricity...

  • Just fyi, the slash in /s or /sarcasm isn't some weird bracket, it's meant as an XML style closing tag, meaning "end of sarcasm". In full it would look as follows: 

     
        
<sarcasm>Things are going great!</sarcasm>

    But people drop the opening tag and the <> for convenience.

  • Thanks for that etymology bit. I wonder why I never bothered to check, but it makes perfect sense, as I know Turkish.

    And yeah, I should have used "sometimes" not "usually". Pan fried shawarma is a thing, while döner isn't, so depending on the way it's prepared it may technically not be kebab.

    Btw, kebab doesn't need to involve any bread element whatsoever. In fact, in places that use the term natively, it usually isn't. Kebab is just any grilled meat on a stick, and often is just the equivalent of BBQ.

  • Fun fact for you: All döner is kebab, but not all kebab is döner. Because döner is just a type of kebab (grilled meat on a stick). Which also means that shawarma's status as kebab is questionable, as it's usually sometimes roasted or pan fried, as far as I know.

  • Thanks to the "you need to buy a new PC for running W11" bullshit, scammers are selling ewaste at full price to inexperienced people

    Jump

  • But "new" in the context of shopping just means "not used", not that it was released in the past year or two.

    And as I mentioned in another reply, they are not advertising anything false if those components are actually unused. If the buyer expects some band new, recently released machine with those specs, it's on them. When you're buying electronics, some minimal amount of research is required, or you outsource it to your family/friends.

  • Of course it's not new new, the CPU is 10 years old. But who would think that it is?

  • Ok, I think I now understand the point of this thread. The implication is that some people might assume that these are brand new machines that will have software support for years to come. Even though, that's confusing to me, as no new machine with those specs costs only 200 Euros. Like, that CPU alone, if used, cost 40-60 Euros. But IMO it's still a stretch to call this a scam, as they are selling what they are selling. Can these machines run W11 right now? Yes. If the buyer expects something else for that price, it's on them. The target audience could still be tech-savvy ppl who just need an older machine for simple stuff and W11 is pre-installed there just for convenience.
