I don't really push it. A couple of hours is all I really ask of it, and I get it. I feel like it's not great given what I'm asking of it, and that it's an eink display. This is just vibes because I play on it like a…
At this point if I'm dealing with that level of hassle I'm much happier running linux on a computer. The value add of these devices was plug and play, and if it's not that why bother.
horsawlarway is correct regarding the nvidia shield. I'm not sure how much is nvidia, and how much is google in the "they". I kinda blame nvidia more than google (if I bought a google device I would expect google ads as…
They (ETA nvidia shield) added ads many years ago. Really left a bitter taste in my mouth after paying for an ad-free "premium" device to have them shoved out there.
Imagine the bugs you'd find in curl from five years ago! I bet there are tons!
I have a pine note. It lives up to that description. It's "fine", but I like to use it as an e ink laptop (well terminal with occasional other uses) with a bluetooth keyboard. I don't know that I would even want to…
Cool. Some data may have been transmitted over GPS. That's interesting and note worthy. If only that was all that was posted. Instead there's this stuff that makes me question Steven Murdoch's research practices. If…
This is an interesting article. It has a very strong AI accent. I really wish I could tell how real it is. When some part of it I can tell is AI slop, how much of it is AI slop? Inside GNSS has always been a marketing…
I use a pine note + a bluetooth keyboard + SSH / VPN to make that work for me. It's acceptable. I would like "a laptop", but it's fine.
I have a few boxes that I switch between, but for some software it's nicer that my "main machine" be on DVI, and everything else HDMI. I may have to look at some scripting option where if the keyboard / mouse disappear…
OFDMA just makes the channels smaller. Sure there are now 10 transmitters on channel 5, but there's one transmitter on channel 5.1, one on 5.2, ... and each 'channel' has 1/10th the capacity of "channel 5".
All my old software before AI was self documenting and didn't need comments -- it just was obvious. Today my prompts never make slop. I'm a really good driver.
Give me all your data and money plzthx Dictated but not read, big company Alternatively (in emoji description form): floppy disk, bar chart, right arrow, brain, money with wings, pointing finger, slightly smiling face
Several of them would have protested if they could have found the right arguments.
IBM Plex Mono -- I guess no one ever got fired for choosing IBM?
I'm really glad Hacker News disallows AI generated comments. The response I got from asking that question really is quite enlightening. Short answer: "no", long answer: "no -- fuck off", longer answer: "no -- fuck off…
I've been building my own tooling doing similar sorts of things -- poorly with scripts and podman / buildkit as well as LD_PRELOAD related tools, and definitely clicked over to HN comments with out reading much of the…
You could run the comments everyone else posts through an AI tool and ask it to rephrase it so that it is clean, and easy-to-read. You could even write a plugin for your favorite web browser to do that to every site you…
Yes. Specifically: The use of words to express something different from and often opposite to their literal meaning, and not some knifey spoony confusion.
Blanchard fed the spec to the tool, and Anthropic fed the code to the tool, so Blanchard didn't do anything wrong, and Anthropic didn't do anything wrong. Nothing to see here.
But why would you do that? Especially if you know there are robots enforcing that you come to a complete stop? There are many places that don't even allow rights (or lefts) on red. I got a right on red ticket once, and…
Many countries have minimum wages for many jobs [1]. There is a tacit agreement in polite society that people should be paid that minimum wage, and by tacit agreement I mean laws passed by the government that democratic…
I find that if I want to use JSON storage I'm somewhat stuck choosing my DB stack. If I want to use JSON, and change my database from SQLite to Postgres I have to substantially change my interface to the DB. If I use…
I'm sure it depends where one lives, but if your drinking water is safe there's no real reason to boil the water except for proper steeping. I definitely use boiling water with my bagged breakfast tea, but boiling is…
It's definitely better than nothing, and greatly improves things, but UBO is better. Try watching a youtube video in a browser with UBO, and the android app on a network with pi-hole, etc.
