Ohhh, look at Mr. Fancy Pants over here with his backup servers! What, ya scared the internet’s gonna go poof and you won’t be able to access your little spreadsheets? ‘Oh no, my cat memes are in danger!’
Listen, buddy, some of us are just out here raw-doggin’ the web like real men. What’s next, you gonna put a generator in your bathroom in case the toilet paper dispenser fails? Fuggedaboutit!
Can’t speak to back then since I just got my first iPhone but I might like Maps more than Waze and certainly more that googles maps.
I don’t know that anyone “needs” anything more than bash. It’s the creature comforts that sell the other shells. That said, bash has never hung or crashed on me. I can’t say the same for zsh.
Haha
Part of me wonders if he’s having trouble finding willing folks (let me rephrase: quality willing folks) to do these jobs because 1. Most half-intelligent half-sane people know what he’s about 2. He’s about 2 years from being irrelevant to the Republican party and he’s not the person you want to be tied to. 3. He’s burned so many people that it really doesn’t make sense for reasonable people to be interested.
I think (maybe it’s naive hope) that after mid-terms we’ll see the party start to look beyond Trump and effectively make him less important. We are sort of seeing it with the Senate putting pressure on some of his picks (Gaetz).
Aren’t they throwing around numbers like 1 million deportations?
Does Sky think there are a million rapists and murders amount the 7 million that are here?
Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem like they’ll need anyone to narc him out. They tracked him all the way to the hostel he was staying at and have more photos of him.
Unless this guy was cash only with fake names and no phone in sight, they’ll probably be able to narrow it down quickly (or might already have a name they haven’t released). Maybe there’s a chance he was clever about all of that.
But if he had a phone they’ll just do one of their dragnet warrants of people in the area at those various places and times and crossmatch the person who was at all of them. Combine that with a facial rec search against drivers license photos and other holdings, they’ll dial it in sooner than later.

Tesla stocks (and quite a few other company’s stocks) are not based on ‘fundamentals’. They are based on hype, speculation, and perceived future value.
People investing in tesla either 1. Are ‘playing the game’ and trying to take advantage of the hype. Which incentives them to also hype because they benefit when more people buy the stock. Think crypto bro-esque grifting. Id also throw in people who do short term trading to time hype jumps. 2. Novice/uninformed investors who don’t understand fundamentals (who may be getting boozled)3. People that understand fundamentals but are also hedging against a miracle.
Elon isn’t a stupid guy. There is a reason why Musk is constantly hyping things. It keeps the stock high. It’s keeps the buzz going which gets more people to buy in. It keeps him rich which lets him do silly things like buying Twitter or donating to political campaigns and ingratiating him to the president elect.
But the overall valuation of Tesla absolutely, unequivocally is not based on fundamentals/realistic valuation of the company. It’s almost all a “bet” and people buying stocks are gambling.
Images of microphones?
I have a few LLMs running locally. I don’t have an array of 4090s to spare so I am limited to the smaller models 8B and whatnot.
They definitely aren’t as good as anything you get remotely. It’s more private and controlled but it’s much less useful (I’ve found) than any of the other models.
Better is entirely subjective. Mastodon has so much friction for an average person.
Not to mention most servers are filled with tons of “WeLl ACKWalLY…” types or legit weirdos.
I’ve heard it summarized: if you hated Twitter you’ll like mastodon. If you liked Twitter, you’ll love bluesky.
Mastodon aint for everyone. Id hazard to say it’s not for most people. It’s also no immune to ads or natural centralization.
It reminds me of that South Park episode about Walmart where they fought off the super store and shopped at the small store until it grew into the super store.
If China is bad, and the US is good, then why wouldn’t we want our military to have access to the same (or better) tooling than they have access to.
I’m so morally dilemma’d here
Meta, a US company, allows the US military to use its models. Omg! Let me clutch my pearls.
What’s the moral dilemma? China already took their model and is using it in their military.
Do you guys not want our military to have access to all of the possible tools they can?
You mad about Ford and GM building trucks and vehicles parts for the military too? Are you mad about Microsoft selling windows to the govt?
You just upset that it’s the military?
Where’s this line that’s been drawn where this is a moral dilemma??
It’s really funny because Cory always champions POSSE. Post (on)own site, share everywhere.
And it’s funny because he mostly does that.
Hi! It’s me, the guy you discussed this with the other day! The guy that said Lemmy is full of AI wet blankets.
I am 100% with Linus AND would say the 10% good use cases can be transformative.
Since there isn’t any room for nuance on the Internet, my comment seemed to ruffle feathers. There are definitely some folks out there that act like ALL AI is worthless and LLMs specifically have no value. I provided a list of use cases that I use pretty frequently where it can add value. (Then folks started picking it apart with strawmen).
I gotta say though this wave of AI tech feels different. It reminds me of the early days of the web/computing in the late 90s early 2000s. Where it’s fun, exciting, and people are doing all sorts of weird,quirky shit with it, and it’s not even close to perfect. It breaks a lot and has limitations but their is something there. There is a lot of promise.
Like I said else where, it ain’t replacing humans any time soon, we won’t have AGI for decades, and it’s not solving world hunger. That’s all hype bro bullshit. But there is actual value here.

Lol GTFO of here.
It’s not those people that this sways. They are a “lost cause” in most regards. It’s the people who have hesitations and concerns. The people that have been lifelong Republicans but are feeling jaded or are starting to see through the facade.
It helps sway those people.
The fuck is bitnet
The sad reality is that most people, like an overwhelming majority, won’t leave. Most don’t even have a clue this is happening in the first place, those that do, love their family and friends more than they hate Mark.
And where are they going to go? I heard Cory doctorow liken it to Anatevka (the town in Ukraine from fiddler on the roof) the people were sad they were leaving because they knew it would never be the same again and they might not see each other again. They didn’t like getting beat by Cossacks and it was a shitty place to be but they didn’t want to leave their people.
Dumping a platform that has your friends and family is a hard thing to do especially if it’s the only meaningful way you can connect with them otherwise. Especially if you know some won’t leave and some aren’t going to go to the same place you are.
