  • Asus and Dell announce new mini PCs for Windows 365 | Goodbye local OS

  • It must be noted that Big Tech is currently engaged in artificially forcing hardware prices upward, and that's going on while Microsoft continues their generations-long quest to deprecate old hardware by forcing new versions of their OS out of compatibility with it.

    There are so many ways they're actively screwing their customers by making things tangibly worse, and then conveniently showing up to "help" by selling us more of their shit.

  • Of course Brent Spiner had to wear those safety goggles when they filmed, but I also love the in-universe idea of Data putting on a piece of safety equipment completely unnecessary for himself just to fit in with his friends.

  • Like when your headphone cords get caught on a door knob.

  • And when you smash it through the roof of the Hell in the Cell in 1998 it's a Mick Foley catheter.

  • Sarah Beattie was a really fun part of Weird Twitter back in the day.

  • What are some things you think of when you see something related to your field outside of work hours?

    Jump

  • Among other things I'm an audio editor and producer, and badly-done audio really grates on my brain. When clips have been poorly chopped together, when a character running away from a monster screams the exact same scream twice, when statements are clearly frankenclips made of fuck knows how many different recordings, my brain raises the alarm.

    This is especially rough when reality TV competition shows are on. I like Drag Race, for example, but RuPaul is employing some idiots hacking at spools of worn-out tape with rusty knives or something.

  • Firefox 148 introduces the promised AI kill switch for people who aren't into LLMs

  • That prospect becomes less and less likely the more government is bought and paid for by Big Tech.

  • Two of these people are a couple now, but it's not the two you think.

  • Acceptable loss.

  • To answer your question we'll need to conduct a series of electrical tests on your left ball. Please report to the lab as soon as possible, and wear loose pants.

  • As posted at this new instance which appears to be trying to fill the void (heh) left by lemmyNSFW:

    Xaeg/Yay was the owner of LemmyNSFW, and he had access to and paid for the domain, server, and everything else related to the site. He has been AWOL for about 6 months now, and suddenly this month, the server and the domain stopped being paid for. I have no access to the server to get the database.

    Because of this LemmyNSFW as it was, and all the content on it, much to my dismay, seems to have died.

  • Our microorganism ancestors also did all those things, and they were far beyond anything an LLM can do. Turning a given list of words into numbers, doing a string of math to those numbers, and turning the resulting numbers back into words is not consciousness or wisdom and never will be.

  • LLMs are not children. Children can have experiences, learn things, know things, and grow. Spicy autocomplete will never actually do any of these things.
