OptionX

A lot actually.

You're confusing just assuming by default its enough for purpose rather than not caring at all.

The problem here is that pdf is over bloated with features and without strictly defined standard. Rust can't help you with that, or any language for that matter. It's akin to upgrading the security system on a house on fire.

The best solution would be ditching it completely for a simpler subset of features. But that will never happen.

I built my current home pc on the cusp of the transition of ddr4 to ddr5 and ddr5 was at the time out of my budget so I went with ddr4 and I can still play modern games fine with 32gb even at 2k. I might not max out everything but that was never a priority for me. Usually besides resolution I seldom touch the graphical settings if the game is running ok. In fact the only thing I upgraded one it until now was my GPU since that was a holdover from my previous one.

Home server also runs ddr4 and does ok, but that has been hitting more cpu bottlenecks now rather than memory.

That said its kinda sad personal users are getting tossed back a generation due to current generation ram being almost all gobbled up for AI.

The setup part made me chuckle.

The copy this prompt into your agent seems like an evolution of `wget X | bash`-style in all the worst ways.

If you think this project, not even month old, can recompile gta6 to pc and it be in anyway playable on release have I got a bridge to sell you.

To add to this, since the original comment mentioned kindle, you can jailbreak many of the models and install KOReader in them if you want to keep using the hardware.

IPhone users switching to android due to enshitification and android users switching to iPhone due to the locking down of third-party apps and if you're forced into a walled garden might as well go to brushed aluminum one.

Basically everyone is getting shafted.

Soul sucking is right.

Its looks like the sort of stuff that happens to a tragic fantasy hero after a Faustian deal. Except they would've asked for riches, love or eternal youth, we on the other hand just want our middling-quality tv to work.

That's a lot of telemetry for a puzzle game.

I'd be more than willing to go electric if someone sends me the cash to get an electric, because if I could replace my diesel-guzzling 11yo I would.

I agree they they should, but that would be hard before, now in the IoT-hell where even your lightbulbs and internet-facing and capable of being proxies seems like a herculean effort.

Pretty sure I saw an article on HN a few days ago about, in part, how a bunch on seemingly innocuous apps for smart tvs, stuff like screen savers and the like, all ran proxy servers (in the users residential address) under the hood. I think it was in the GamerNexus investigation on the whole LG Tv spying on people IIRC.

Pretty sure for anyone outside North America the shipping absolutely kills the value proposition nowadays. Last time I checked to replace my deskmat both it and the cables were about as much for shipping as for the items themselves. And taxes on top of that. That, for example, turns a 20 cad cable, already on the pricey side into a 40+ cad one. I do not know if there are any officials redistributors in other continents, but I don't think there are.

Google is the worst offender, but a lot of companies are increasingly hiding themselves behind a wall of automated systems to completely neuter users ability to challenge any decision unilaterally taken by the them. The LLM-age has worsen the situation but it started well before it.

At some point it may be necessary to add the requirement for large companies to have a both human contact point and perhaps a requirement for specifics on account terminations and the like, or at least a way to request them, to the letter of the law.

Between China and the US which have laid claim to Greenland and have in no uncertain terms said they would use military force to acquire it?

A truth that in practice does not seem to hold up once your valuation passes a certain threshold.

This isn't necessary related to this project but I got thinking about while reading it. Isn't it weird that shared memory was a cost saving measure by not having GPU dedicated has now been rechristened unified memory and is now a feature?

I understand why the AI people want it to help with the latency between the CPU and GPU. But having people in some cases use it as for marketing is kinda like getting watered down beer and getting told its a good thing because alcohol is bad for you.

So instead of putting more cache on the cpu you just put the cpu on the cache.

A stockyard doesn't consume into the gigawatts of power.

There is not a concerted effort to build thousand upon thousands of stockyards across the globe.

Stockyards wont increase the planets reliance of oil, since green technologies don't scale that fast. Same planet that feeling the effect of climate change quite clearly.

All for close to zero upside for the surrounding community. At least the stockyard would have given you cheaper meat. What are data centers going to give? Discount tokens?

That's why your stockyard does not have the same pushback.

Such investment in technicalities to undermine the above post could itself speak of zealotry to a certain side in itself if one was prone to cynicism.

Not to mention that those nuances, as you state, mean very little. To say it was trained solely on copyrighted material or to say it was trained in large part on copyrighted material doesn't much move the needle over the fact it was done, a lot. Making a distinction between an "80 year old copyrighted work" or a recent one is also moot as it a matter of public record they themselves didn't make that distinction and happily fed on both kinds.

On to not being able to say they didn't ever do anything altruistic, well animal rights and welfare had great strides under the Nazi regime, not sure it evens out the rest. The same logic can be applied to the current state of affairs, doing a little good does not even out a lot of bad.

In closing, nuance is relevant when its relevant, after that its just being pedantic.

I when to check and I think I get it now, the link-local is routeable (switchable?) but only at the local level, but then you might ask why bother with SLAAC at all then. It's due to router being unable to route anything with a link local origin or destination as they are not globally unique so if you need to talk to anything past layer 2 you need unique-local address (or global).

I thought fe80::whatever was only for link local, and link local was only for 1-1 communication with router for SLAAC.

After you'd get a unique local than thebn would be used for normal routing needs.

Did I get the wrong?

What are you talking about? How do you think food get to the supermarket? People put it there.

The entire chain from farm to table is managed and operated by humans.

Every automatization effort ever always had human oversight.

Its not the same thing as entrusting the entire codebase to overachieving markov-chain who has no concept of correctness over anything of sounding ok.

Honestly, saying the humans understanding codebase is a dead concept is the most techbro-ish I heard today.

If any org had any use for telemetry they'd have no incentive into to adhere to something that would make it easier for users to opt-out. In fact that thee whole reason you have to opt-out instead of opt-in in the first place.

Its an ok solution, but will never be implement and doing it actively goes against the interest of those who would have to do implement it.

Simple, you can serve a reasonable amount of unobtrusive ads and I and others might turn off adblock to support the publication or you can do what you're doing, I'll keep it on and see no ads at all.

"Break free from Google"

All supported devices are exclusively Pixels.

The old create the problem and sell the solution shtick.

In about:config set network.http.dictionaries.enable to false to fix it.

Did you?

I've personally used and still use FF for year and have now no intentions of switching.

I don't care about the Ai stuff as long is mostly opt-in or easily disabled at least.

Having said that I've been looking forward the Ladybug project as a another browser not part of the chromium swarm. I'm sure I'll give it a try when it's more mature.

The article seems to try to conflate not upgrading your business sometimes for decades with not buying a new phone every year.

What a weird direction to go.
