Win11 becomes a less and less appealing switch day by day… When I can no longer hold into Win10, I think I’ll just have to jump ship to Linux.

Win10 is already quite privacy poor, but Win11 is straight up intolerable.

Well I suppose the answer I’d give is that because of how right-wing the US is compared to much of the Western world, it becomes a patient zero for whatever the far-right is cooking up - which inevitably influences far-right groups in other Western countries

I agree on them being safe - when rules are properly adhered to, they’re extremely safe, similarly to air travel. People only suspect their safety because when they do fail, they tend to fail spectacularly, again similar to air travel.

Having said that, they may be efficient to operate, but they are by no means efficient to build. They cost a lot of resources, and have a 10 year lead time - plus you need to worry about the cost of waste storage and decommissioning.

So sure, nuclear is better than fossil fuels, but you’re just kicking the nonrenewable can down the road.

That time and resources would be far better spent on renewables, because that where humanity is gonna have to go long-term no matter how well any other alternatives work.

With how much time these “macho” conservatives spend thinking about gay people, even when marrying their own wives, it sure does seem like they’re hiding something

The Internet Archive is currently fighting in the courts to maintain free digital library access to over 500,000 books they own from their own collection, yet Meta uses a pirated dataset of nearly 200,000 books to train their proprietary AI and is just allowed to get away with that??

Publishers will go after a charity making fair use of their content, but not the corporation outright stealing from them. What utter bollocks.

Cows, sure. Just don’t startle them or go near their calfs. They’re mostly just curious.

Bulls, only if you have to, but make it quick and stay as far away from them as you can. They’re fiercely territorial and not afraid to show it.

Exactly!

Applicants are expected to dedicated hours of their time to writing their application and performing background research - both of which are becoming increasingly more tedious over time - so the least a company could bloody do is show some basic respect by paying an actual human being to come interview you!

The idea of AI automated job interviews sickens me. How little of a fuck do you have to give about applicants that you can’t even be bothered to have even a single person interview them??

The TL;DR for the article is that the headline isn’t exactly true. At this moment in time their PPU can potentially double a CPU’s performance - the 100x claim comes with the caveat of “further software optimisation”.

Tbh, I’m sceptical of the caveat. It feels like me telling someone I can only draw a stickman right now, but I could paint the Mona Lisa with some training.

Of course that could happen, but it’s not very likely to - so I’ll believe it when I see it.

Having said that they’re not wrong about CPU bottlenecks and the slowed rate of CPU performance improvements - so a doubling of performance would be huge in this current market.

So essentially weapons manufacturers are now, instead of supplying directly to Russia, allowing their weapons to be sold to vendors with ties to Russian military vendors (who definitely wouldn’t ever supply Russia) and turning a blind eye to it so they can claim to be following sanctions.

What filthy traitors. Should send them to the front line just so they can see what the weapons they’re allowing Russia to obtain are being used for.

Imagine not knowing it’s short for Bobsworth

Yeah… Definitely has nothing to do with the fact that everything costs more everyday while our wages stay relatively stagnant, making it harder and harder to for people to actually do anything with their lives aside from working and hustling for a meager wage.

Boomers had everything laid out for them, post-war riches and all - they could’ve preserved it for the future, but instead they pilfered and squandered it all, then pulled the ladder up on the new generations who they left all the mess they’re still making to clean up.

I’m in no position to tell you to stay or go, after all it’s your life to lead, nobody else’s…

Having said that, I can’t help but notice from taking a rather cursory glance at your post history that most of your posts are pretty well up-voted.

The only posts where you seem to be heavily down-voted are political posts, which by their very nature will invite disagreement - this is especially true when the posts you’re making touch upon rather controversial/inflammatory topics.

And if that’s what you’re complaining about being down-voted for, then you’ve really only yourself to blame for inviting that disagreement into your life.

Went in expecting a slightly grittier CoD, and left with the horrors of war and saviour complexes.

I cannot reccomend this game enough - it’s just a shame it got delisted over music licencing, so you can only get it secondhand now.

Exactly. At what point does it become good enough to fool us completely.

Just having read the README, even if it’s a little faffy, the idea of being able to converse with someone and have it be translated back in near real-time is awesome!

This is the kind of application I was looking forward to seeing come out of open source AI - I think it’d still be a little too clunky to save you in an emergency, but probably less clunky for most people than learning a new language or having a human translator on retainer haha

I’d agree if it weren’t for the fact that my Dad is the one that would wake up and change the channel, then fall back to sleep

Hugging and play fighting, sure, but can’t say I’ve snuggled with the lads (or girl friends either for that matter) - feels more intimate, like something you’d do with a loved one (or a pet).

Drunk me might lean a bit more towards leaning or pushing against the lads, but that’s always playful and jokesy rather than sincere as your post implies

If you have access to the BIOS, you could always just underclock and undervolt the system to give more power efficiency.

Though a small server with a retroconsole attached is also not a bad idea for the excess juice.

True, but if you’re already replacing the mobo (say for an upgrade, which Framework laptops are designed to let you do), then you can use your old one for this rather than having to buy a Pi clone or some such
