  • Every now and again I am reminded of my sentiment that the introduction of "media" onto the Internet is a net harm. Maybe 256 dithered color photos like you'd see in Encarta 95 and that's the maximum extent of what should be allowed. There's just so much abuse from this kind of shit... despicable.

  • I'm not European and even I despise von der Leyen. She's one of the most cynical people on Earth.

  • The other day I tried to have it help me with a programming task on a personal project. I am an experienced programmer, but I only "get by" in Python (typically just by looking up the documentation for the standard library). I thought, "OK. This is it. I will ask Llama 3.3 and GPT4 for help."

    That shit literally set me back a weekend. It gave me such bad approaches and answers, that I could tell were bad (aforementioned experience in programming, degree in comp sci, etc) that I got confused about writing Python. Had I just done what I usually do, which is to look up the documentation and use my brain, I would have gotten my weekend task done a whole weekend sooner.

    It scares me to think what people are doing to themselves by relying on this, especially if they're novices.

    Tesla suffers worst quarter since 2022 as deliveries tumble

  • until it's zero that's still too many. everyone who buys one of these things should be made to regret doing so

    edit: thinking on it the way I worded that makes it sound much more sinister than I meant. But those who use these things as investment vehicles (ha) should not be allowed to reap a return. Those who buy in should be embarrassed. Everyone who is considering buying should now be thinking, "Am I willing to subject myself to public humiliation for a car that will be worthless soon and might even possibly be vandalized if I left it out in a public parking space?"

  • I actually do this. With uBlock Origin you can set to default block any JS (or just 3rd party JS) and then whitelist by domains. Then you can lock in per-site settings.

  • Does Incus allow you to use a VM with a GUI? One thing that's nice about Proxmox is I have one VM with a very basic lxqt setup for when I need that, and I can either use remote-viewer + the spice protocol to access it or access it through the Proxmox web ui. That's been very handy.

  • I haven’t used Reddit since the api change but I suspect stating that Luigi mangione is a hero who did nothing wrong would get me banned on Reddit. Social murder is completely cool and ok. But actually killing the man who oversees the system of social murder? How dare you!?

  • Finally, a Linux laptop with a brilliant display and performance that rivals my MacBook (from Germany)

  • God, I wish I were in the market for this. I have a baseline m1 Macbook Air and a lack of funds, so I can't quite justify another laptop. And while Asahi Linux is very cool, going forward I really want to support good Linux-friendly vendors.

  • I live in the USA. Supposedly I, and all of my countrymen, have access to all the free information in the world. Yet Trump is president. A literal anti-vaxxer is the HHS secretary. They're also trying to destroy the education department. Please reconcile that for me.

    How does loading flash drives with "subversive media" do anything for anyone? This just sounds like a plan to export ewaste into another country.

  • I mean you can just say that about any and every law or policy. No need to be so knee-jerk about it. The point I'm making is it isn't just posturing. It's not like a company pretending to promise to watermark their AI outputs; it's a government saying you must comply with new rule.
