Is it ever okay to generalize about people? why or why not?

AMD GPU driver with opencl support?
Basically title. I have a 7600(x)(t) 8G. I want drivers with opencl for hashcat. I know the proprietary ones work, but they are a ludicrously massive PITA.

Do companies store facial and voice recognition data from the thousands of hours of zoom/teams calls that their employees use?
I heard a person call into a show the other day, voice only, and talk about some poor working conditions at a factory. Made me think about how it would probably be so easy for nefarious bosses to be able to identify that person through voice recognition SW with all of the data that comes from us looking directly into cameras and...
Do we need to create increasingly more children for a stable economy?
So in the whole anti-natalism/pro-natalism conversation (which I’m mostly agnostic/undecided on, currently), my friend who is a pro-natalist, argued that the success/stability of our world economy is dependent on procreating more children each year than the previous year, so that we not only replace the numbers of the people...
People were really doing martial arts under waterfalls for hours without a break, I stand in the shower for twenty minutes and my skin starts having a tantrum, getting wrinkly and shit.
Is this allowed?
This is a test. I have lots of textual shitposts to make, waiting to be released from the potential that is my soul, in its experience of my self as separate “parts,” created from memories. So many words. Are you allowed to unironically make copy pasta? This post is gibberish and so am I....

I managed to run The Sims 4 on Linux after over 6 hours
At this point, making something that doesn’t work using Wine or Proton is actually kind of an achievement, so congrats EA, you managed to fuck up both Origin and EA app. The actual game runs flawlessly, it’s the launchers that are all kinds of broken.

Why don't more filtering systems enable sorting by least viewed/visited, including for older pages/material?
Sometimes what I’m interested in may be more specific or niche, but a lot of search engines and filtering systems don’t seem to provide a way to drill down to those results. What may be some reasons behind that?...
Do you leave a tip for housekeeping if you're only staying one night in a hotel?
Is it a ‘thank you for prepping my room’ or ‘please clean my room today’? If you tip post cleaning, it’s likely going to someone else the next day. Many hotels now only do housekeeping on demand. How do employees feel about this - do they miss the tips or are they happy for a less stressful workday?...
