I’d love to see Bing or Qwant or Yandex (to be honest ideally Bing as they share their index) get a similar deal for StackOverflow or Github just to give Google a taste of their own medicine now

If you’re in the UK or I expect EU, I imagine if it’s due to oxidation you can get it replaced even on an expired warranty as it’s a defect which was known to either you or intel before the warranty expired, and a manufacturing defect rather than breaking from use, so intel are pretty much in a corner about having sold you faulty shit
I’m fairly sure to get my current job my resumé was just an unformatted txt file, imagine using formatting
Yeah even gpt4o couldn’t keep track of encounters, run battles etc. in my case…
I think if you wanted to do it mechanically consistently you’d probably need to integrate it into a vtt where you give it context and potentially fine-tune it to give quest related summaries & gming rather than just “stuff”
At least you can (theoretically, if you have your own datacentre or botnet) run, finetune and play with this yourself, so at least it’s somewhat useful, especially if you finetune it for applications where word predicting is actually exactly what you want
Yeah, of course it varies place to place but I think for the majority of at least somewhat developed countries and urban areas in less developed countries 50Mbps is a reasonable figure for “normal home internet” - even at 25Mbps you’re looking at 4½ hours for 50GB which is very doable if you leave it going while you’re at work or just in the background over the course of an evening
Edit: I was curious and looked it up. Global average download is around 50-60Mbps and upload is 10-12Mbps.
That’s not even applicable here, and I thought we’d moved past spouting that on every post when it became apparent that meta actually weren’t trying to kill the fediverse
The whole point is developing products to an open source standard, adding unneeded or complex features to ensure competition can’t keep up and gain market share, then shutting down your product and killing the whole standard.
How does buying a company that makes proprietary products then closing down that company even come close to being the same thing?
LLMs have a very predictable and consistent approach to grammar, punctuation, style and general cadence which is easily identifiable when compared to human written content. It’s kind of a watermark but it’s one the creators are aware of and are seeking to remove. That means if you want to use LLMs as a writing aid of any sort and want it to read somewhat naturally, you’ll have to either get it to generate bullet points and expand on them yourself, or get it to generate the content then rewrite it word for word in a style you’d write it in.
Intel Arc also works surprisingly fine and consistently for ML if you use llama.cpp for LLMs or Automatic for stable diffusion, it’s definitely much closer to Nvidia in terms of usability than it is to AMD
Docker fan mindset
What OS doesn’t do that, even linux has xdg dirs
Oh yeah I absolutely agree with monopoly abuse being a bad thing with a huge caveat that it’s so much worse for essential services and not quite as bad for extras, like youtube. I personally can’t see any competition to youtube being able to provide a better service - it’s in a similar niche to Netflix where they were great until they got competition at which point the userbase and content fragmented, which meant they had to provide a worse service to make money as the content rights agreements made it into several small monopolies and so they were literally unable to compete, which is frankly worse
Ok, but equally any competition would need to be profitable earlier, you can’t complain you got a service operating at a loss which is now operating at a profit when that’s exactly what any alternative you’d feasibly switch to would do
It’s normal for most afaik but that’s because manufacturers make a trimmed down phone to go on your wrist which means you have to charge it daily, without realising it’s on your wrist so it doesn’t need to be super slim with huge cuts to battery size to go in your pocket.
My garmin has an always on display, heart rate, steps, blood oxygen, thermometer, barometer and whatever else and yet still manages a 4 week battery life, 3 weeks with normal use (1h gps per day, using the touchscreen and higher brightness) or even around 50-60h of GPS/more frequent heart rate/active maps activity tracking
It’s on 7% now and is giving me an estimated battery life of >2 days, which just shows how abysmal many smart watch battery lives are
Wikipedia’s job isn’t free to be anti- or pro- anything, it’s to show facts free from bias, even if you and most other readers agree with that bias.
Of course the facts can clearly show something to be almost objectively evil to anyone capable of understanding them, but it’s not for Wikipedia to perform any analysis of those facts - saying “Israel has killed X civilians in attacks which many of their allies claimed were completely avoidable [citation]” in an article featured on the front page is perfectly valid, however a big banner with a Palestinian flag is not as it’s a (fair) interpretation of the facts and not simply a presentation of them.
Nano is just as fiddly as vim and way less powerful when you actually figure out what you’re doing though?
Ie a completely redundant piece of software that has no place being pre-installed anywhere
That’s a human action anyway though… Not a “it’s been a while since you opened our app time to drag you back” notification
I’m not sure, if you’re racing me in a 100m sprint and you do it in 15 seconds, that’s pretty useless information depending on whether I’m at the 90m mark or beyond the finish at that point, so it’s primarily a race against the speed I travelled at
I believe none except colonising space… The others are so far off that we don’t even know for sure if they’re even possible, what’s going to go wrong or whether we’re looking in the complete wrong direction, meanwhile you’re dismissing the only realistic one in the next 250 years because we’re close enough that we actually know how hard it is.
There’s something to be said about chasing after things that are impossible as the possible seems too hard, but I’m not enough of a philosopher for that.
The UK’s average energy price is high, but it’s also very variable as when it’s cloudy and calm 20% of demand needs to be imported from France/Norway so wholesale energy is very expensive, but when it’s sunny and windy wholesale energy is free or even at negative cost and 20% of generation gets exported to France/Norway, where their energy is more expensive
If you have the option to run datacentres at minimal or even negative energy cost maybe 20% of the time, then shift load elsewhere the rest of the time, then that may be a reasonable proposition
