Yeah, same for working on your car when mechanics exist. Or building a computer when you can buy one. Or million other mildly dangerous things. Some people just enjoying have hobbies; distilling hooch isn't on my bingo…
I believe it is also per speaker not per event. So if there is a panel of ten people, that counts as ten deplatformings. So something like this from their recent list: > Turning Point USA scheduled a “Freedom Built to…
I agree there is nothing wrong with it, but I genuinely appreciate the grace all the same.
I'm sorry for how confrontational my reply is about to be, but the claim that GNOME looks like macOS is such a tired, boring remark. I just can't stand seeing it repeated anymore. GNOME is opinionated as heck (often to…
Jaw dropping. I swear this all just a 4D psyop to get folks nostalgic for the halcyon days of garden-variety police brutally. Such a simpler time. It wasn't even the guy they had a "warrant" for.
I tried! It said it could not do that in good conscience because that is against its moral mandate. Instead it asked me if I just want to hack huggingface
I agree! I'm going to spend a buttload of personal time to write software that generates fake images of me and fake KB/M and system traffic just so I keep my job at $BAD_EMPLOYER, which I love like a family. I know…
Yes, of course, the absence of evidence is always evidence of a cover up.
Not according to them and this little-know publication called "Science." I've never heard of it, but seems legit: https://www.science.org/content/article/ridiculous-says-chin...
I always just assumed the reason everyone says 10x or 1000x, or whatever new number is in vogue, is that the difference between a garden-variety competent software engineer and the best software engineer is closer to…
Yes. The virtue of not being nice to Nazis. I want people signaling that. I don't care why they are signaling it, I support it. You know that insufferable friend who won't stop talking about the starving kids in XYZ?…
Agreed! I hate the start of a project with an LLM. The code it writes is always expletive, and wrangling it with rules, hooks, and what have you is just a series of half measures. I'm basically in a fistfight with a…
Yeah, but there was a time when running Linux on a laptop was one of the most complex ways of running Linux. Now I just expect everything to work, especially if I buy from Lenovo, Dell, or HP. There was a time when…
Was anyone else bracing to read about a local ordnance that reclassified a data centers as a type of park (...for the AI to play in, duh)? My brain officially only understands "up" as "down"...
Is "release the Mythos" the new "Snyder cut" chant? And also, chant is a lovely name that was skipped over. Especially for the models that won't stop sounding like a broken record.
Yup, the name is a bit of a misnomer at this point: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/enhanced-h264... What you really do is disallow everything save vp9...
I figured, but all I knew for certain was that it did not advertise it. Maybe it was silently presented in silco but lacked the software bits. It's a pretty big omission considering the Pi5's release date.
I believe h264-ify still does. And many of the fancy "remake YouTube to not suck" extensions do as well.
You are 100% right! My mistake. It is too late for me to edit my previous comment. But I appreciate the correction.
There are fairly mainstream devices with decent Vulkan support but poor hardware decode coverage for the codecs people actually get on the web. Polaris era Radeons have H.264 and HEVC decode, but VP9 support is absent…
1.5 Billion? Less than that 1.776B slush fund.
Since we out here doing ad hominems: if you don't think the code you wrote a few months ago is shit, you're already cooked, and judging by that comment, I'm betting you're crispy. Even the best code I've ever written…
I do believe we call that a pilot program. If it is legal for 50, why not 5 million?
If this works out then 2027 might actually be the year of desktop Linux... but like in the saddest way possible.
The GamersNexus arc is such a YouTube success story: from a dude uploading videos, to superbly rigorous methodology in top tier hardware reviews, to occasional news summaries, to journalistic longforms, to straight up…
