I didn’t read it that way. I read it as the difference between billionaire and trillionaire being irrelevant, neither should be a thing.

The systems and the rich both need to go. I’d argue that those who disagree should too.

I think it depends on how you divide it up honestly. I could not play most games for 8 hours straight. Across three sessions in a day though? Sure.

I’d wager the same would apply to work for me, but there is only so many hours in a day and people insist on work happening at very specific hours, even though I personally get some flexibility there.

I am aware, but it’d be disingenuous to say that we’re not training LLMs in Europe.

Eh. I’m not sure if we have any data centres dedicated specifically for training and running LLMs, but we do have data centres that do both.

Aye, figured it was worth noting that they obsoleted it because they absolutely had to cram in that one extra pin! You can’t convince me that they didn’t do that just to fuck with people.

That was always the case. This PC replaced my 1150 socket intel PC, which had new CPUs made for it from Q3 2013 to Q3 2014. AMD at least keeps their sockets usable for a couple of years before they change them.

1150 was superceded by 1151. Those are the number of pins on the header by the way, so they had to add one extra pin because it was obviously stifling innovation.

I built an AM5 system because I wanted to ensure that if I want to upgrade it, I won’t have to buy an entirely new motherboard. Coming from Intel who change their socket every two weeks, I thought it was a great idea at the time.

The cost wasn’t prohibitive, the kinks ironed out quite fast. But I don’t like DDR5 RAM. Like, it’s RAM, I don’t notice anything spectacular about it. What I do notice, is that it takes FUCKING AGES to post!

Startup finished in 20.971s (firmware) + 4.818s (loader) + 785ms (kernel) + 4.440s (initrd) + 7.741s (userspace) = 38.757s 
graphical.target reached after 7.697s in userspace.

It’s taking 21 fucking seconds to do some kind of “memory training!” It used to be over 40 seconds! For what? No noticeable difference in user experience other than it taking forever to boot.

Where can I steal penis? My supermarket doesn’t have them.

That makes so much sense.

But there’s also musk.

There will be emulation at some point.

No way in hell this wasn’t shat out by an LLM.

You say things I agree with, and things I don’t.

I struggle to see the benefit in virtual boundaries, and think it’s better to foster a healthy trusting relationship with one’s child. They’ll encounter bad situations at some point sooner or later, and at that point having shielded them from it in lieu of giving them the tools to deal with it, will have been harmful rather than helpful.

Further, this kind of informational censoring can be used to actively harm people as well. I’ve met many people whose lifelines are their virtual connections to their communities, and had their parents been at all technically inclined these people likely wouldn’t be alive today.

Children won’t spontaneously combust if they encounter pornography. My first exposure happened at around six or seven, same time half of my classmates. Someone found a pornographic card deck in the bushes during recess.

I feel like all these locks and bars that people apparently believe that they need to be good parents to their children are a little… much? My mother wasn’t an exemplary parent exactly so I wouldn’t go down her route, but I think there’s a case to be made for connecting to your child on a human level, and being their guide rather than their warden.

It makes me think of this hysterical American mindset I’ve bumped into over the years. I’ve got friends who likened me walking a couple of blocks to school as a six year old as child abuse, when they themselves have no idea how to operate a washing machine. I did experience abuse, but it was more of the slammed into the floor and choked out, than going to and from school on my own.

There’s a happy medium to be made, where you can gradually introduce concepts to a child at a level that’s appropriate. Fostering a connection to a child that makes them feel like they can trust in you, and safely go to you when they need it, while also having the freedom to make decisions and grow on their own.

Oh and one more thing. When are we punishing Google, Meta, etc., for allowing intentionally child-targeted adult themed ads and recommendations? Or did we forget how YouTube allowed incredibly disturbing content in ads and recommendations FOR KIDS (as in, literally injected into playlists meant for kids)?

I think this is the far more pressing issue. Capitalism will gladly throw the health of people under the bus if it makes them a quick buck.

Given the noise pollution, and sometimes air pollution, as well as the water getting ruined, and the skyrocketing electric prices. Probably not many. Why would rich people put up with that if the povvos can break under it instead?

Such value! Given that the joycons are like €85 for a pair, I’m getting so much back!

Imagine if fines actually scaled in a sensible manner. 🙃

Wow. How many cents will we get each?

Yeah. Zero trust VPN, akin to tailscale or cloudflare tunnels.

Is it like a STUN server that facilitates a p2p connection or do they proxy it?

Is it like a TURN server that provides p2p connection or do they proxy it?
