Should just have it handle voting as well. They could call it Automatic Democracy.
None of that pesky informed voting, you can just instruct an AI company on what your stance is, and it’ll vote in your stead.

According to the article linked in the article, it’s not that the operating system itself is more demanding, but more that the DE, and Browsers/Websites are more demanding now.
It feels like that Canonical basically needs to do the games thing of having a set of minimum specs for Ubuntu to run at all, and a recommend specs for Ubuntu to run well. Canonically basically bumped up the latter, but it’s being taken as the former.


If memory serves, he also claimed to have been driving when he teleported into a ditch 50 miles away.
Which just comes across like he was driving when he really shouldn’t have been (Drunk/Tired and Emotional), and fallen asleep whilst on the road.


It’s odd, since they used to have a rather nice HTML web interface specifically for low-peformance devices, but it’s since gone away.


This doesn’t seem so bad, though. 2 GB more in about 10 years is pretty reasonable in terms of an increase.
It’s not like they doubled it.


Specifically using publicly available information that they could find on search engines.
They didn’t track them down with a PI or anything quite like that.

50 GB in memory for a visual studio/programming project being a bigger project seems like rather an understatement, unless you’re working on machine learning, simulations, or something of that nature.
Did he read/hear about gut flora somewhere, and get his eggs scrambled?


If they had done a Google and sold GPU-compute cloud services, they could probably have made quite a tidy sum. Everyone wants compute.


I’d honestly agree. It’s fine after you get established and a feed set up, but before then, not having a good way to find stuff to follow in the first place hurts it a bit.


I’d argue that it was more to do with the fediverse setup being confusing/complicated, if you’re not used to it.
People would think you’d need to sign up to all the servers that you wanted to access, rather than using just one account for everything.


Though it’s better now, it used to be that Lemmy and a lot of Lemmy-type alternatives’ documentation were more for people who wanted to host their own server, rather than someone who wanted to join a social network.
But at much the same time, that complication also hurts adoption, so if people ever wanted Lemmy to be a proper social media site to replace the existing ones, the barrier to entry does also need to go down.


Or that it’s not right for their use case.
Like someone throwing a bunch of data into an LLM and trying to use it to process it into a chart or something. It can work, but it was never designed to be used in that manner.
I’ve got an acquaintance who does that, despite the fact that python would be a better thing to use.
Personally, I sometimes run a few saved images thorough a multi-modal 8 gigaparameter local model on my computer, so I can automate giving them more descriptive names than randomnumbers.png, and that seems to work fine. I could do it by hand, but it would take hours and days, compared to minutes, and since it’s not too important, it doesn’t matter if it’s wrong. The resource usage is also less of an issue, since it’s my own computer.


Especially if they can achieve their goal of keeping it alive for months.
Right now, we can only safely do it for hours. Potentially months is a massive improvement.
The oil crisis isn’t quite that bad yet.


This feels like it’s trying to skirt unions/regulations. The teachers aren’t actually teachers, they’re “guides”, which is a completely different thing entirely.


TP-Link is Chinese.
Human drivers, if they could get LIDAR with their car, would probably also use it.
Why not aim for better than what humans can do?
