Altman argued that ongoing memory supply chain woes were because selfish individuals wanted to run their AI models locally instead of leaving the remaining AI chips alone for hyperscalers to hoard in data centers.

Selfish? We’re selfish?

Goooo fuck yourself. You’re the problem you fucking cunt, and you know that.

I think filtering is the best thing they could give us as customers. They already have AI disclosures, but I don’t think we have the ability to filter for AI right now.

Maybe I’m just not finding the right brand, every Bluetooth earbud I’ve tried have been pretty lackluster. Either the sound isnt good, the batteries don’t last or both. Haven’t had good experiences with them thus far.

For me personally, charging is the inconvenience. That and having to buy new earbuds over and over when I shouldn’t have to.

To each their own though

I too just bought a Motorola. My pixel 8 developed a line in the screen. I missed the headphone jack so much I decided I care more about that than I do the privacy of grapheneos. I did put /e/os on it though.

What Motorola did you buy? I went with a moto 5g 2024.

Just give me a fucking headphone jack. I’d buy one of these phones in a heartbeat for a headphone jack dude.

Yea I’d say robot is more dexterous, moves more. Machines are more stationary. A mechanical arm that puts car parts on a manufacturing line, thats a robot to me.

A coffee maker or an ice maker, those are machines.

So were just speed running the collapse of America on all fronts. Sick.

See y’all at the revolution.

Right so in that way, its very reproducible. That was my understanding and I appreciate you for the more in depth explanation but is there advantage to that versus an immutable distro? Wouldn’t a immutable distro work in a similar way being reproducible among many machines?

Rollbacks can be done on immutable distros as well right? I’m just curious why Nix was the first choice and not something immutable.

From the article:

Its use of the Nix package manager means that each package is installed in its own directory with immutable and signed contents. That alone means that the setup is incredibly easy to reproduce across multiple machines, something that is an obvious benefit when dealing with different facets of a government.

Id argue an immutable distro would likely serve the same purpose but maybe its also because nixos isnt as “locked down” so itd be easier to configure for a specific purpose?

Its almost like privacy is a good thing.

Hope nothing bad happens to you. Surely not. Flock cameras make everything safer right?

Thats correct. So basically good for the company and the lawyers. Sometimes its the best option but in this case, just means they can do it again.

I worked for a security company that has stolen wages and has settled out of court 4 separate times. They will likely continue to do so.

First ive heard that, any idea why?

Ikr? As much as its good to know this shit, I really hate being informed sometimes.

I’d very much like every truck out there to have the headlights pointed away from my eyes and be less bright thanks.

I’m very close to putting a mirror over my rearview window to shine the light back at them.

I just use a mini PC and use streaming services through the browser when I do use them.

Couple that with a air mouse/keyboard combo remote and its pretty good. Not perfect but good for non tech people too.

A friend of mine delivers for Amazon now and hates it.

Can confirm, they expect so much of drivers. He is constantly told that he isn’t fast enough doing over 150 packages every day.

Me and my girl are watching a bunch of different TV shows. Basically showing each other our favorites. While we were watching Dexter, it got removed from whatever platform it was on and moved to another one which meant we had to buy another service just to finish it.

After that, and seeing all of the price hikes, I realized I’d rather do a one time payment for any shows I watch especially because at the current pricing, DVDs are cheaper overall. That and streaming services are trying to add value to themselves by doing original TV. Most of it is garbage that I’ll never watch, so there isnt much value in streaming for me anymore.

That sounds like a really cool setup for gaming. What games di you and your friends play mostly? My htpc is just a little used HP office PC. Far from cutting edge but great for my use case. I used to use a keyboard and mouse for navigation but I didn’t like it. I settled on using an air mouse and keyboard combo. Its not perfect but it gets the job done.

I barely couch game but when I do, I use a controller.

Mostly my Linux htpc is used for streaming but not doing a ton of that anymore. I started buying DVDs again.

But nice to have the option for the two streaming services I do use or YouTube.
