146 countries recognize Palestine as a sovereign state so I guess Netanyahu will declare WW3 on his own.

I’ve been using the OpenVINO plugins for a few weeks and it’s genuinely impressive. Noise cancelling is one thing, but the transcription tool is amazing. I can create subtitles from conference recordings in minutes and create transcripts of recorded zoom calls, etc. and it does it for multiple languages.

That’s the kind of shit I like using AI for.

AMD keeps the same sockets for ages. I was able to upgrade a 5 year old Ryzen 5 2600G to a 5600G last month. Can’t do that with Intel in general.

Japan has been living in the year 2000 for 40 years

Yes, in factories where the tools are programmed to do a job like tightening the bolts for an airplane plug door or your car engine head. The quality assurance gains are enormous (the tool does the job and logs it).

Problems occur when the customer cuts IT security costs or tampers with the tools to increase production rates.

The tools are connected to a central database that logs all operations, it’s super useful. All the difference between Boeing that uses old style pneumatic guns and manual torque wrenches vs. Airbus using fully connected/automated wrenches that not only tighten bolts to the right torque every single time but also keeps track of how many bolts have been tightened. Such tools should be airgapped from the internet but obviously someone messed up on that part. Could be cost-cutting.

My friend who works designing such tools says production stuff should never be connected to the internet for obvious reasons. Someone fucked up.
