Maybe power is more reliable in central Texas, my family still has no electricity from the derecho that hit Houston. And they lose power frequently from all the heavy storms or hurricanes that pummel the gulf coast.

By any chance are you using Matter in your home? If so, does HA handle that well?
What kind of stupid world is it where 8GB of RAM is actually not enough? I’m not doing anything that fundamentally different to what I was doing 10 years ago, and back then 2GB was fine on the low end of things.
feels like you can’t even exist anymore without all your data getting leaked by someone who aggressively must consume as much of it as possible.
Hulu you can say, “well at least I can pirate and avoid giving my info up.” But what can you do against things like when Equifax was hacked?
There needs to be real privacy reform and real data privacy laws in the USA. bullshit ass second-tier country
My first car had a curb weight of 2400 lbs. It’s absurd how fucking huge these planet-destroying, environment destroying, life destroying monstrosities have become.
I’m asking genuinely: is this “AI” or is this “ML,” because the latter terms appears more appropriate to me.
This seems to be how these things inevitably must go. Pay money to legitimately use a product or view a piece media. 🔜 Oh no, my money is now going toward funding something bad.
Jet rains here, Nintendo with their lawsuits, the entire MPA (formerly known as MPAA).
“Extremely likely” – says the only entity in control of the price. What are the odds? Who knows! It’s extremely likely!
Taking the joke a little too seriously, huh?
The phenomenon you describe is called Jevons paradox. Absent a law to safeguard the increased efficiency, the waste will follow quickly.
Wake me up when “ai” makes the amount of CO2 in the earth’s atmosphere trend downward. Generative AI is just a way to burn electricity to take value produced by humans and then replace those same humans, all to line the pockets of the companies that can afford to churn all the data in the world.
For the handful of genuinely cool and interesting things it can do, the number of extremely awful costs and externalities is like 1000x worse.
I like to imagine that one arm of the American surveillance state started the exploit and the DOJ wrapped it up only after Fancy Bear noticed exploitable routers. I mean, there wasn’t any evidence that this originated from Russia in the article, just the assertion that it was so. Who’s checking?
Russia has a certain flavor of lying that I don’t see elsewhere. They make claims that are so utterly ridiculous that everyone knows it is complete bullshit. It’s like some weird gaslighting / dominance thing.
There is one other place I do see this strategy replicated, which is from the IDF.

They moved mountains with this one.
I haven’t read Unauthorized bread but you’ve just reminded me of Stallman’s “Right to Read” very short story, which is about a future where, God forbid, you might read someone else’s book without paying a licensing fee. Not the most amazing story, but it perfectly presaged things like scientific journals being paywalled today.
yes
oh good, there are single-use e-cigs? what will they think up next? single-use, disposable, electronic pregnancy tests?
This is precisely why any argument against gpl is laughable. Android is Linux. But a kernel without a userland is pointless. And that’s how Google operates: they use the kernel (which they want to replace) and then rewrite as much as they can with MIT licensed or proprietary code. The goal being to lock down the platforms in spite of the so-called “open source” software.
This comment is sent from my iPhone where the story is even sadder. Darwin does what Google wishes Linux could do, as far as licensing goes.
I’m visiting my parents this winter so it will be a good chance for me to look into trying something like this.
native tab grouping would be a much more desirable feature, to me
