  • CPU scam: Chuwi CoreBook X uses AMD Ryzen 5 5500U instead of 7430U

    Jump

  • Read my prior post, I specifically SAID it was a model number.

    You're embarrassing yourself with your pedantry. You said 80486 didn't exist. It did. Seriously, quit while you're behind here.

  • Such a confident answer! And so incorrect too!

  • Honestly, we know where the root of this problem came from. Back in the 1990s Intel broke with convention of using ever increasing numeric model numbers

    • 8086
    • 8088
    • 80186
    • 80286
    • 80386
    • 80486
    • Pentium ...wait, what?! Not 80586? Nope.

    Intel didn't like that other CPU manufacturers of x86 CPUs (AMD, Cyrix, IBM) could use the same numbering scheme. So Intel created "Pentium" because it could be copyrighted/trademarked so other companies couldn't use it.

  • That’s my bad for not remembering AMD’s fucking atrocious nonstandard mobile chip naming schemes.

    Atrocious compared to Intel? The first CPU with the name Core i7 was released in 2008, but Intel is still releasing a CPU named Core i7 as recently as 2023. They both suck, but in different ways.

  • Coal plant US Department of Energy ordered to stay online unlikely to run given ‘flush’ power supplies: CEO

    Jump

  • This is likely one case where capitalist polluters and leftist environmentalists are on the same side. Neither wants to see this plant in operation.

    Coal is an expensive way to generate electricity in the USA. Its a PITA to get the coal and deal with the tailings. Further with the death of coal power being obvious for decades, plant operators have put off maintenance again and again knowing that the plants closing is forthcoming. The forced demand from the government would require at least some of that expensive maintenance done to keep operating. Plant operators don't want to spend that money for something that is going to be closed as soon in the years ahead as trump isn't in the picture anymore.

  • DHS Secretary Kristi Noem out, Trump says

    Jump

  • Doesn't this mean one fewer Republican Senators then? He was elected in 2023 so he still had safe years on his term in office.

    Also from Wikipedia:

    "He is the only currently serving senator without at least a bachelor's degree."

    Well, trump has said "I love the poorly educated", so this is an on-brand choice for trump.

  • Apple introduces Macbook Neo - cheaper Macbooks starting at $599

    Jump

  • I'm not sure we can use the "Windows x86 vs Windows ARM" analog for this new unit from Apple. MacOS Tahoe is a native ARM OS on both the high end and now this low end unit. With Windows its a completely different CPU architecture.

    Apple has to know this is going to cannibalize its low end (8GB/256GB SSD) Macbook Air line. So will Apple discontinue the low config Air or is there some other differentiator that still makes the low config Air compelling?

  • He's a literal terrorist

    Jump

  • that something Tain ordered him to do as a member of the Obsidian Order was his “step too far” that caused his break with Cardassian ideology.

    Thats a wonderful thing about Garak is that I don't think there exists "a step too far". Rather I like to assume that even if it was a heinous request he didn't follow it because it didn't serve his own political motives. What was so interesting about Garak is that he clearly had a formal set of solid guiding principles. However to outsiders like us it looked chaotic and disjointed.

  • He's a literal terrorist

    Jump

  • Wasn't Garrik effectively banished for being on the losing side of an internal power struggle within the Obsidian Order (the Cardassian spy division of the government)?

  • Apple introduces Macbook Neo - cheaper Macbooks starting at $599

    Jump

  • If its the full macOS, I don't think we can say that. That's what makes this so interesting as it is a first of its kind.

    Now, if it performs like a dog compared to an equivalent spec M3 or M4 Macbook Air, then we probably could call it a glorified tablet.

  • What phrases/sentences instantly reveal someone as a chud?

  • Especially when they're using it as a defense to use racial slurs in a Wal-Mart on a Saturday afternoon.

  • I want to think that this is a moment in your life that you will look back on and see how much life has improved by then. You're going to beat this cancer, you're going to make slow but meaningful improvements in your life, eventually moving out to a place of your own, and rediscovering who you are after your battle with cancer is a victory on your part. Some time later you'll have someone special in your life by then, and you'll hold them close remembering days like today where it was hard to be without them.

    Please be around and living for that day.

  • Tried the same thing in Asahi but without macOS’ memory management and access to GPU acceleration, it just wasn’t feasible.

    Thank you for sharing this result. I knew Asahi's memory management wasn't as robust (so I got a 24GB RAM M2 unit to overcome this).

    For your macOS Ollama implementation are you able to leverage the NPU in the hardware (which I know is also unavailable so far in Asahi)?

  • Apple introduces Macbook Neo - cheaper Macbooks starting at $599

    Jump

  • This was my first question. This laptop looks like a really strange bird from the hardware point of view. It runs OSX (Tahoe), but uses an iPhone/iPad CPU (not an M1 or M2 CPUs that Asahi runs on today).

    Completing the MacBook Neo experience is macOS Tahoe

    Woah, this is new! A version of Mac OSX running on a iPhone/iPad CPU.

  • Google faces lawsuit after Gemini chatbot allegedly instructed man to kill himself

  • I agree, but we should also take it a personal warning that, maybe not today, but as we age and our mental faculties decline, we too may fall victim to something like this.

  • Google faces lawsuit after Gemini chatbot allegedly instructed man to kill himself

    Jump

  • There was another article from a very similar set of circumstances of a man originally from Portland going off the deep end with an AI relationship. He committed suicide by jumping off a bridge, not because a prompt told him to, but because of the deep psychosis from the long term engagement.

    If you feel this happens so frequently, give me a series of prompts to use so that I can replicate this.

    And since you won’t, that’s what I thought.

    The chatlogs as reported were 55,000 pages long.

    If those logs become public you'll have your chance. I hope you don't wear out your fingers in your attempt to replicate it.
