Demonizing spaces for like minded people to congregate doesn’t solve that.

If this is a polite way of saying “go somewhere else to lightly criticize democrats,” I don’t accept that. I can at least hope Lemmy can do better, and try to change it.

Of course having a good information diet is critical. But that’s besides the point? I don’t think this thread would be a thing if all our information diets were great.

LLMs are like improv machines. You give them a prompt, and they steamroll through it, no matter what.

There is literally no going back and changing it. It improvs as it goes

It just doesn’t resonate with voters.

I think many voters “feel” tech getting junky, but the connection to why is just way too complicated for most to dig into. It’s not a direct line like tipping waiters or getting abortions.

I’m with Shepard on this one, even if he’s being a jerk about it.

Lemmy is a filter bubble, an echo chamber. You miss information that would be personally important to you, but is excluded because it doesn’t fit with the US Democrat party line, and the very specific part of it Lemmy’s politically active base likes.

Like, I’m a raging Trump hater, but I’m kind of aghast at how many knee jerk reactions (like, to me, your original reply) I get when I imply something vaguely critical about the Democrats.

What does that have to do with internet privacy legislation?

This is not just a partisan issue. As the article points out, its been like this for 30 years. The Dems failed to pass any meaningful legislation too.

It’s because it makes gobs of money that both parties are taking, and it also kind of projects US power to other countries since US tech is doing most of the data collection.

I will however, 100% giggle at their expense with my wife, later. Because anyone who buys $50 polished selenite drink coaster “charging plate”, and a $200 brass pyramid to “recharge” their $50 “healing quartz wand” while refusing to listen to real science deserves to be giggled at.

I mean, humans do all sorts of wierd, irrational, ritualistic things. IMO, whatever floats your boat.

Did you buy your wife a diamond ring? Or at least gold? :P

I hate to be that person, but what’s this new Lemmy trend of posting Twitter screenshots without the link to the original article?

I don’t care about some snarky Twitter commenter, I want to see the Octopus make a friend.

I still have to keep Windows around for (ironically) performance reasons.

Some sim games like Rimworld and Stellaris just have a big hit on linux for me, native or Proton. And in a sim game, that means slow turns and stutters you can’t avoid instead of slightly lesser graphics. And it’s not sublte, native stellaris is like a good 30%-40% slower with even higher spikes last time I benched them back to back.

It totally kills interest in the device though. Its like they think every single buyer is an impulse buyer who just looks at the demo in Best Buy without even looking it up or trying it.

It’s really sad, as it kills the end product for no good reason. Just theoretical pennies.

I mean, Windows would be fine if the OEM stripped it down instead of bloating it even more. They can totally do with with group policies.

I honestly don’t know what they were thinking here.

They just can’t help themselves, lol.

All that bloat is bad enough on a laptop, but its the absolute last thing a handheld needs, both for performance/battery and ergonomics.

They probably host it themselves on inferentia.

Yeah. Normally I wouldn’t care, but when the colonies/galaxies get big, even a 30% TPS hit or whatever starts to feel very painful.

I would note that Rimworld and Stellaris (for me) run much slower in linux than they do on windows, and they are kind of perforamnce sensitive games.

Yeah, and it’s just fp8 truncation right? Not actual “smart” quantization? That’s even a big hit for huge decoder-only llms.

RIP

I had a hope we might get a 4B and some clarification, but that conversation feels like a cold bucket of water.

TBH they don’t want anything to do with CivitAI, so maybe this is their way of sabotaging SD3 for it?

I grew up in suburban DFW, and King of the Hill is not really an accurate parody…

It’s a documentary.

You think I’m kidding, I am not.
