Resource drain of LLMs inescapably makes them tools availiable only to big players. They are ideal in the way they are naturally gated. Making them mandatory == giving these select companies and people power over everything. And not only oligarchs’ promotion, but the whole situation of them being given for free or cheap at a huge loss gives one an idea that there’s a lot to milk from it’s growing adoption.

IIRC Vivaldi and Brave promised to prolong it for a year.

What’s the current meta in that quest?

Poor? Look how many sausages he got!

After the ability to bring them up got taken away by the big capital.

Around three days. No drugs, just showers and energy drinks I took sip by sip for a long time. I was somehow productive, but caught my attention stuck a couple of times on something banal like a working microwave buzz. Everything felt dull and I seemingly had no emotions near the end.

It’d certainly encourage me to up my torrenting game so this shit appears 24\7 at rather weird uploads around the globe.

Is there a way to change the torrent client’s name\version so you appear in a list of seeds as Mark Zuckerberg?

IP hoarding of products that may potentially be produced. Millions of dollars aren’t a pocket change, but if anyone’s going into this wearable AI bullshit, HP’d make a hole in their pockets. It’s a low stakes conservative gamble ‘just in case’.

Blender installs natively from Steam and works without any emulation of windows’ stuff. I noticed the download size is different for Linux, so I guess they cared to pack everything needed for it to work smoothly.

Some distro claimed they did everything to make UX with Resolve one of their targets, I believe it’s Nobara or maybe Bazzite. It’s not emulated either and installers are also provided by the devs of Resolve themselves.

Affinity have no plans to make a Linux version, so it’s always emulated and has workarounds like that (github) but I haven’t used their software even on Windows so Idk how the experience of using their products is. Coming to Linux, I got used to Inkscape for my vector needs and Krita\Photopea for raster gfx. I heard Darktable is a good Lightroom alternative if it’s up your valley.

There’d probably arise a need of a default instance with only guest access for a test drive before they pick their own instance, with some pop ups pointing at the fact that the name nutomic@lemmy.ml means he is a part of some meta-subreddit lemmy.ml, that doesn’t mean shit for he just helped andrew_bidlaw@sh.itjust.works with a link to the source. Their likes are collected but never shown. When they’d want to stop lurking and finally press a login button, it shall instead invite them to see instances of people they liked before first, others next, with tips what lead some rank so high in their list. After the signup is confirmed, their likes may or may not be transported, but their temporal profile is deleted.

I see the natural flow would be something akin to that: we start with a showcase of general content from different nearly-default instances and then get them recs about persons they did enjoy reading.

You and you being so nice made me switch to ad hominem faster than usual! How the person like you can be so terribly pleasant? Treat yourself, you fellow lemming.

I also wonder, with how progressive and dissenting American programmers and cybersec experts are, if our l33t h4x0r sk1llz could be turned against DOGE?

What can hurt Musk? These kids are nobodies, his co-conspirators all depend on his will, and the only thing I suspect is probable to crush him is either a lone gunner or an oil\tech barron who got too pissed of from his plans ruining their business prospects.

I thought this rat made access for researchers difficult, just like on reddit, thus getting bulletproof evidence via data harvesting got complicated.

The ride just never ends…

I perceive my advanced tools akin to a broom.

I can mop floors alright, but I also don’t want to sit down with a cloth to do it.

If I can’t do that myself, and it does that instead of me, that’s not just my tool, that’s my employee, and the one I now depend on.

‘AI’ companies sell us billions of hours of other people’s labor to replace our own need to interject our experience and ingrain themselves into our routine. Like the coming of ads, it’s already normalized. But this time, critical parts of our life has this black box dependancy and subscription.

Also, LLM doesn’t usually have memory or experience. It’s the first page of Google search every time you put in your tokens. A forever trainee that would never leave that stage in their career.

Human’s abilities like pattern recognition, intuition, acummulation of proven knowledge in combination makes us become more and more effective at finding the right solution to anything.

The LLM bubble can’t replace it and also actively hurts it as people get distanced from actual knowledge by the code door of LLM. They learn how to formulate their requests instead of learning how to do stuff they actually need. This outsourcing makes sense when you need a cookie recipe once a year, it doesn’t when you work in a bakery. What makes the doug behave each way? You don’t need to ask so you wouldn’t know.

And the difference between asking like Lemmy and asking a chatbot is the ultimative convincing manner in which it tells you things, while forums, Q&A boards, blogs handled by people usually have some of these humane qualities behind replies and also an option for someone else to throw a bag of dicks at the suggestion of formating your system partition or turning stuff off and on.

Shortly after the news was announced, Altman posted on X: “no thank you but we will buy twitter for $9.74 billion if you want.”

If only their slapfight meant something good for the world. At least, I don’t see everything collected in Musk’s hands.

And failing at counting so it’s some 120+ of them.

Neuralink ftw lol.
