Only if there’s a body of water near the terminal.

Pro tip:

If you have to make press releases to convince people AGI is here, it is not here.

I’m glad there are still options.

Cynical me thinks this might make big software vendors marginalize or demonize these platforms further for not “verifying” their users.

Unless the government steps in these chuckleheads will be out of investment capital and our kids will be saying “I’m glad we dmsnaoped out of that mess.”

I can’t believe how much more I get done when I’m left alone and focused on the task at hand.

I don’t feel particularly isolated. Everybody is different but a once-week team chat and seasonal social lunches fill my cup.

Turns out when you can do errands and meet non-work friends for coffee as you please you don’t need to lean on your office family so much for connection and purpose.

Only if they can figure out how to emulate CUDA. Or maybe more containers will start providing alternatives if the machines are popular enough?

There’s still a lot of image and OCR workflows I have to chug through the CPU and it takes forever.

So the usual stuff.

Firefox. Zen Browser. Waterfox. Anything other fork! They’re all different flavors of perfectly fine alternatives.

Vivaldi even if you have a website that forces Chrome down your gullet.

Just keep telling your non-nerd friends that more and worse ads aren’t something they need to tolerate.

This is why Canada and the EU want data sovereignty. I want all LLMs to piss off but no one country should have their fat little anticompetitive finger on the scale.

It’s the greed. I’m so glad the comments are full of people who are clued in.

And here’s the thing most people miss:

~robots are writing this junk~

Anybody taking bets on what the “unalive” equivalent of antifacist is going to be?

I don’t buy band media anymore but I do go out to live shows and buy t-shirts and other merch like nobody’s business.

Record company middlemen and forever streaming can take a hike.

I don’t think that what he’s famous for.

Meanwhile, Elon Musk’s company avoided almost all federal income tax on over $12 billion of U.S. income over the past three years

This is following the rules because the rules are written by the rich to benefit the rich. Countries need wealth taxes and more equitable policies on unrealized gains.

One day soon he’ll run out of companies to eat each other and the creditor bill will come due.
