Some of the SOTA models like gemini 3 pro are getting quite good at ballpark/estimations. I have fed it multiple complex formulas from my studies and some values. The end result is often quite close and similar in accuracy how I would do an estimation myself. (It is usually more accurate then my own ones.)
Now I don't argue there is any consciousness or magic going on.
But I think the generalization that is going on is quite something! I have trained ai models for various robot control and computer vision tasks. Compared to older machine learning approaches transformers are very impressive, computationally accessible and easy to use. (In my limited experience)
When I was a child I played and really enjoyed AAA open world games with loads of collectibles like ACBF or Just cause 3.
Nowadays I enjoy rogue likes, story games and visual novels much more. It is less of a time sink and sometimes I really feel like I got value from it. Like insights into myself or reevaluating some beliefs.
Here are some story games I particularly enjoyed:
Citizen Sleeper
Epistory
DDLC
Novi News
Oxenfree
The wolf among us
Frostpunk: Last Autumn>New Home>Fall of winterhome>Refugees>Arks
I think giving up or downvotes in the context of such a question is fine. It actually shows controversial opinions. Now I wouldn't downvote if it didn't have sufficient upvotes though.
I believe Firefox could raise a lot of money through donations. If they make it clear that Firefox donations will be solely used for Firefox development. Also ideally add a quick survey to donations to see what the "donating" userbases values are. My issue with donating to Mozilla is that it is too broad and they have many products I don't care for.
I use Thunderbird and donate to it because I feel it's more focused. I believe Mozilla still can use the funds for other stuff but at least I am donating for a clear project.
Company rolls out thing more slowly over longer period of time.
Not saying that's what's going to happen. Just keep that in mind and maybe use this time to explore some other options. That usually doesn't hurt and if push comes to shove moving won't be as painful.
Generally if possible diversifying is usually a good thing no matter what.
I have a shield. Without setting up a custom launcher it is an ad ridden nightmare (by default). Even though I spent a comparatively large amount of money for old hardware, I still get bloat.
But I don't know any better option that is easy to use and has a simple android box like remote so. :/
Screen dimming is technically possible over HDMI/Displayport no idea why its not properly supported and integrated into monitors, graphics drivers, windows and Linux. KDE shows dimming for monitors sometimes? Don't know if that is software or real hardware dimming though.
I believe that it would have been much better if there only were namespaces. Would make vetting and trusting specific "publishers" much easier and safer.
Like the many bevy crates. Some official some not. I would like a @bevy namespace. Or one for tokio and so on.
Also unofficial crates or forks would be transparent and would not have to be renamed except for the namespace ofcourse.
I created tracing-proc-macros-ink because the official tracing developers have been namesquatting tracing-proc-macros for six years. I don't blame them but I am still annoyed. The system is just bad.
