I just got GPU temp monitoring working on my old dell laptop. "Heat management" for the GPU is pretty much just an extra chunk of steel tacked onto the heat pipe halfway between the CPU and its radiator, so GPU temps are always in the red.
I might as well just turn off monitoring and remain ignorant 🤷
It's a 1/4 wave antenna with a groundplane. Physics dictates the size.
Compared to the PCB antenna in your average USB dongle, this would have at least two to three times the range, and likely more than that, because you can put it somewhere more optimal than just poking out the back of your device.
entirely separate and much more sophisticated technology
Or some math nerd will come up with an algorithm for general AI that is embarrassingly simple, and before you know it the "but can it run Doom?" crowd are implementing AI in toasters and watching them have existential crises for the lulz.
Some of the biggest jumps in house prices were when interest rates were less than 2 percent and you could get a million bucks from the bank just by asking to see the manager and giving them a firm handshake.
I can agree Pauline Hanson is a problematic individual
So problematic individuals shouldn't be punished by the collective? You know what happens then? A few problematic people muddy the waters and generally make it very difficult to actually get shit done.
just for that one stunt with that burqa
There are rules in the senate. They allow for structured and robust debate, but there are limits. You don't become a "problematic individual" with just the one stunt.
Ms. Hanson is - in my humble opinion - a shit-stirrer presenting views stuck in the 1950s that do not mesh well with 21st century geopolitics. Those views are popular with a small segment of the population and she knows it. Stunts like this give disproportionate attention to that small segment at the detriment to everyone else.
I don't see that at all. Perhaps you are just projecting your own issues onto Lemmy at large. I think you need to have a good hard look at yourself and your internal biases and then come back and apologise to all of us.
Techbros won't let that happen, because they're all terrified that consumers will just shut off all the AI being crammed into everything and all their money will evaporate.
The gains compound a bit too, 20 percent less weight equals proportionally less battery capacity required to shift the now-lighter vehicle from point A to point B.
So then you can cut the size of the battery while maintaining the same range, and that's where you start to get significant overall weight and cost savings.
The only extra moon I'm willing to accommodate is a blue moon. All the rest are just social media wankery, especially "supermoons" that are merely a few percent larger than usual due to the minor eccentricity of the moon's orbit.

Hey can you spare $20 for petrol? I'm a bit skint this week.
This is entirely the wrong community for this answer, but I've used the pro version of Textra for 10 years now. One time payment (10 years ago), updates every few months, lots of features, but they don't get in your way if you don't need them.
The main feature I use is "delay send for 5 seconds" to allow me to catch all my spelling and grammatical errors after I hit send , but the rest of the UI is pretty well thought out.
One of the very few commercial Android apps that I'd recommend to someone.
Fossify Messages is your trusted messaging companion
I hate this kind of advertising language.
Don't sell this as some fait accompli , done deal thing. It's not anything to me at the moment. It doesn't need to be my "messaging companion". It needs to be a program, that I use to send and receive SMS/MMS messages. That's it.
Sure! There'll be a dialog box that comes up every single time that you wake your PC saying:
"Do you want to activate AwesomeAI™ now? 98 percent of the functions of this OS are crippled or unusable until you activate AwesomeAI™ so Microsoft recommends doing so immediately."
And the two options will be "OMG Yes!" , or "Maybe Later".
It straight made up a powershell module, and method call. Completely made up, non existent.
Counterpoint 1:
I gave Copilot a couple of XML files that described a map and a route, and told it to make a program in C# that could create artificial maps and routes using those as a guideline.
After about 20 minutes of back and forth, mainly me describing what I wanted in the map (eg walls that were +/- 3m from the routes, points in the routes should be 1m apart, etc) it spat out a program that could successfully build xml files that worked in the real-world device that needed them.
Counterpoint 2: I gave Copilot a python program that I'd written about 8 years ago that connected to a Mikrotik router using its vendor specific API and compiled some data to push out to websocket clients that connected. I told it to make a C# equivalent that could be installed and run as a windows service, and it created something that worked on the very first pass using third party .NET libraries for Mikrotik API access.
Counterpoint 3: I had a SQL query in a PowerShell script that took some reporting data from a database and mangled it heavily to get shift-by-shift reports. Again I asked it to take the query and business logic from the script and create a command line C# application that could populate a new table with the shift report data. It created something that worked immediately and fixed a corner case in the query that was causing me some grumbles as well.
These were things that I've done in the past month. Each one would have taken a week for me to do myself, and with some general discussion with this particular LLM each one took about an hour instead, with it giving me a complete zipped up project folder with multiple source files that I could just open in Visual Studio and press "build" to get what I want.
In all these cases however, I was well versed in the area it was working in, and I knew how to phrase things precisely enough that it could generate something useful. It did try and tack on a lot of not-particularly-useful things, particularly options for the command line reporting program.
And I HATE the oh-so-agreeable tone it takes with everything. I'm not "absolutely right" when I correct it or steer it along a different path. I don't really want all this extra stuff that it's so happy to tack on, "it won't take a minute".
I want the LLM to tell me that's an awful idea, or that it can't do it. A constant yes-man agreeing with everything I say doesn't help me get shit done.
