You go girl.
Make sure you know your local and state laws for de-escalation and use of deadly force, Stand your ground laws and such.
After that, train. The last thing you want is to flub up something in a high pressure situation. It needs to be second nature to be effective.
That’s my most general advice.
Beyond that, you’ll find everyone has an opinion about carry options
An everyday carry gun should be reliable and comfortable.
*Gun not fun lmao

Maybe you can find left friendly places to train through those communities
Yeah, someone else commented with their financials and they look really good, so while I certainly agree that they are overvalued because we are in an AI training bubble, I don’t see it popping for a few years, especially given that they are selling the shovels. every big player in the space is set on orders of magnitude of additional compute for the next 2 years or more. It doesn’t matter if the company they sold gpus to fails if they already sold them. Something big that unexpected would have to happen to upset that trajectory right now and I don’t see it because companies are in the exploratory stage of ai tech so no one knows what doesn’t work until they get the computer they need. I could be wrong, but that’s what I see as a watcher of ai news channels on YouTube.
The co founder of open AI just got a billion dollars for his new 3 month old AI start up. They are going to spend that money on talent and compute. X just announced a data center with 100,000 gpus for grok2 and plans to build the largest in the world I think? But that’s Elon, so grains of salt and all that are required there. Nvidia are working with robotics companies to make AI that can train robots virtually to do a task and in the real world a robot will succeed first try. No more Boston dynamics abuse compilation videos. Right now agentic ai workflow is supposed to be the next step, so there will be overseer ai algorithms to develop and train.
All that is to say there is a ton of work that requires compute for the next few years.
{Opinion here} – I feel like a lot of people are seeing grifters and a wobbly gpt4o launch and calling the game too soon. It takes time to deliver the next product when it’s a new invention in its infancy and the training parameters are scaling nearly logarithmically from gen to gen.
I’m sure the structuring of payment for the compute devices isn’t as simple as my purchase of a gaming GPU from microcenter, but Nvidia are still financially sound. I could see a lot of companies suffering from this long term but nvidia will be The player in AI compute, whatever that looks like, so they are going to bounce back and be fine.
I’m not sure, these companies are building data centers with so many gpus that they have to be geo located with respect to the power grid because if it were all done in one place it would take the grid down.
And they are just building more.
Oh for fucks sake I’m so tired of this bullshit.
Governments nowadays are constantly acting like a tech platform has a responsibility eliminate privacy for users because if they have privacy, then they can’t be tracked. It’s infuriating.

Oh no I’ve made a huge mistake…Idk man
The real answer has to lie in the definition of “nothing” in the context of what counts as having something to show for your spent money vs not having anything to show for it and succeeding.
It’s most basic form is:
If nothing means no physical products then you can’t buy a jet, but you can donate it all to charities.
You win
---------
So the next level of having nothing at the end may prohibit donations, considering that to be a type of “gifting”
So now you have to spend it on a service. No holding on to goods, no donations.
So you use AWS and set up a bullshit loop of web traffic that produces a 100M$ bill for server usage.
You win.
---------
So now we must ask if the genie considers the service performed to you by AWS to be “something.”
What could we possibly do next?
Set up a charity ourselves and use the 100M as seed capital? Maybe, but if you own it or gain the assets like buildings or something you might lose.
Buy 50M lotto tickets and hope you don’t win? (Powerball is 2$ a piece I think.). Maybe…but that’s risky. That’s like a 1 in 6 or 7 chance to win at that point, plus you’re nearly guaranteed to win snaller prizes which would have to be dealt with.
I think the answer is a boat. A fuckin huge one that’s a little older. This does two things, 1.) its a single object holding all the value. If we can end the month without it, then we win. 2.) it’s easy to get into dangerous and perilous situations in a boat.
Sail that bitch into a hurricane and try to turn around. This runs the risk of failing if the boat lives, but all you gotta do is turn it sideways relative to the huge waves. As long as you genuinely were sailing the ship and not sabotaging it I don’t think it would fall under the “throwing money away” category.
Idk. It’s hard I’ve you get ticky tacky with the definition of nothing. I guess you could just yolo options. Either you’re going to be broke or you’ll have billions of dollars by the end so you win either way? Maybe the boat thing ain’t the answer. Lol I’m gonna leave it anyway.
Coincidences are real my guy.
What was that weird movie where he leads a small troop of guys into a small town and gets suspicious of the people there and then they draw and quarter him? Because that was honestly even more brutal.
You’re a good game ambassador. Keep trying.
Allowing for newer gamers to actually engage with the system is what is fun for them, same as all players. They won’t have fun just watching someone who knows what to do play their turn for them. Idk if it would work, but it might be worth trying instituting a rule between your partner and you before a game night starts that says the more experienced players will only offer advice when asked? It might help, just spit balling.
My personal strategy I liked to do when I showed new people pandemic was asking what people around the table thought was important at key moments, as well as being vocal about the processes in the game. That way there is 2 way active discussion. If I can realize from those conversations that less experienced players are missing something (like it’s been a little too long since seeing an epidemic card) I make sure to state that during my “what I think is important” contribution.
I try to make sure I’m not using language that makes it appear that I think my ideas are better than theirs, instead I try to talk as a GM who is making sure everyone knows objective facts about the game state and what may happen.
In my experience, doing that as well as constantly talking about game state and mechanics for new people such as, “remember, the next time we get an epidemic card (whenever that may be) London is going to outbreak,” shows critical phases of the game that the group should be concerned with, but when it’s worded like that you aren’t putting pressure on the players to do anything about it outright. it still allows them the freedom to say “I don’t think that’s going to sink us, I wanna focus on blah blah blah on my turn.”
Thats seems to be the best technique that I’ve found to take the pressure off of them to listen to the experienced players and fall in line. When the experienced players aren’t dictating a course of action, but rather are stating what is going on and asking what we should do as a group to new players, it allows new players at the table to feel situationally aware and make confident choices because they feel included and like they aren’t missing anything.
(I should point out that your partner shouldn’t be answering you if you ask haha of course they already know. it’s about coercing the newbies into playing rather than watching. not trying to insult, but if your partner struggles with alpha gaming they gotta know that isn’t a question for them to answer)
I wish you luck.
There’s nothing better than showing someone that game and they take a risk (either intentionally or not), it blows up in their face, and they have to scramble to recover and just BARELY scrape by with a ton of luck.
Ha that’s a good point.
Their issue is that the card has the physical lock switched on on the SD card?
Yeah I was surprised when I listened to hardcore history about it. It was like 4 weeks from the assassination to the declaration of war.
Yeah I switched to it from Plex. Plex wouldn’t stop forgetting my libraries and revoking permissions.
I was going to commend you as well. Top notch. I appreciate it
It’s not about the capability to find the info. it’s about the normalization of shitty writing that people like you enable. Fuck off with that hurrr durrr you’re so helpless…stfu. People who do this shit are annoying as fuck. It’s bad journalism.
I feel the same way man, I’m so excited about this tech because of the few use cases that we will discover and will change our lives and cause a paradigm shift…but it will be controlled by someone who is ultra rich (a person or corp) so that’s awful. And there is a ton of stuff that is a grift that will die off and gives it a bad name so I temper my excitement of it around most people because it’s unpopular to root for the tech.
