  • I talk about my Apple TV on the Fediverse occasionally and never get serious downvotes about it. It’s a fine device.

  • It’s still sad. Don’t get me wrong, fuck that guy. But it’s a tragic story that repeats too often. I hope for a day where no one lives it again.

  • XP was the first NT-version with a Home Edition. If you’d been running Windows 2000 at home you would’ve felt the same way (XP is basically just 2000 with a facelift, NT 5.0 to NT 5.1) and even NT4 was pretty good (though 2000 was better).

    The 9x series (95, 98, ME) were built on a different kernel and designed specifically for home use and were, in comparison, terrible. ME was especially terrible as they tried to bring plug-and-play to the 9x core without NT’s hardware abstraction layer and shit did not work well.

  • Whoops!

  • Saying you aren’t casting doubt when you are in fact casting doubt doesn’t negate it.

    Ah yes, the black and white fallacy. A sneaky version of it, but it’s here nonetheless.

    I think explaining the opposing viewpoint and then disagreeing with it is a useful rhetorical tool. It is far more likely to convince someone they are wrong if you are able to state their position clearly and accurately. Saying, “I can understand why someone might doubt this person because of this reason,” and then saying, “I don’t doubt them, here is a possible answer” is more useful than just shitting on people.

  • I think you’ll notice I deleted my comment once I saw that. And also I wasn’t casting doubt. I believe her. And I supplied a possible reason that, as it turns out, was her reason.

  • But that’s not important right now. Don’t call me Shirley.

  • And none of them are orange, you say?

  • Bite matching is absurdly inaccurate, unfortunately. TV loves it though.

  • One day an AI might be, it won't be an LLM though.

    I’m no expert, but I feel like that’s akin to saying a human may be intelligent, but it won’t be Broca’s area of the brain.

    I would think a true AGI would involve a lot of different neural networks doing different things. And an LLM could end up being a useful component of allowing it to communicate. Though who knows how the model would need to change if its language prompts are inputs from other neural nets.

    And I have to imagine at this point major AI models aren’t just LLMs, that’s just the part we interface with.

    Again, I’m very far from an expert. What I do know is that the current MASSIVE push with the technology* we have now is causing more harm than it’s worth.

  • I think you mean prosecute.

  • Hank Green, and Alec from Technology Connections. Wildly different energy levels, but broadly speaking I trust them to do their homework or to outright say they haven’t.

  • Apple TV is a pretty awesome device. Fun fact, you can install Moonlight on it to stream your PC to your TV, and it has controller support so you can use it to play your PC games on your TV. If you’ve got the Ethernet version it’s even better!

  • Honestly I kind of hate the remote. 😅 I know a lot of people like it though!

  • Yep. I’ve got an Apple TV plugged into mine. The LG panel itself is great, no need to use their smart services.

  • I’ve got a powered USB extension cable running to my basement so I can have my Steam Controller plugged in down there, and use my Xbox with Moonlight to stream my PC over Ethernet to the TV. No need.

    I had considered it, but there’s no way at that price point. Also, like I said, no need.

  • Locked

    Well actually...

  • I’m not sure why you keep talking about the comic. I wasn’t responding to the comic. I was responding to someone talking more broadly about generalization of men. The “honestly it bothers me” didn’t refer to the comic.
