  • Honestly, ever since this stopped being known as “image generation”, everything fell off.

  • I believe that if these AI hyperscaler facilities can’t get built or can’t pay their bills, the ram will likely not be usable for consumers if they get foreclosed on, since these companies are directly buying silicon wafers since it’s a cost cutting measure, so if they’re not built, most wafers could just stay like that, and if they are changed to work in their servers, I fully doubt they’ll use modules, since they could’ve just bought modules to save endless downtime before the facility actually starts making money for them.

  • That’s just MFA on steroids. My government account has less verification lol

  • Lmao my 5 yo asus vivobook has never encountered secure launch but it still refuses to shut down sometimes, probably since windows 11 makes it so the ram is at least 70% full at idle lol

  • Yeah nah, the AI shit himself as well as the industry as a whole is peddling isn’t as useful as they say it is, even with the “revolutionary new Gemini 3 models”, which are just slop convo generators. The thing is, when AI is thrusted into a person’s line of sight, the label doesn’t make it so they impulsively rework their entire workflow to be the exact same in terms of quality but use an AI instead, most people brush it off as system bullshit they don’t need, and even if it could help with some things in some capacity, it’s marketed as a “feed everything into me and you can use me for everything” machines, when honestly more accurate, smaller and specialised models should be made instead, even if their purpose is also a bit dubious too.

    And sure, it might seem contradictory, but I do use an AI, but it’s pretty much just for brainstorming and conversational shit for refining my ideas through just articulating them, but I really dislike how my computers are full of AI services for no reason, with a few of my laptops with copilot baked in, another with Gemini baked in, and what have you.

    I suppose the only good thing that came out from LLMs would just be the increase from 8 to 16gb of ram on many machines, but then again, it had to drop again because of said AI companies.

  • There’s also the fact that many NPUs are pretty much useless unless used for a very specific model built for the hardware, so there’s no real point having them

  • Can’t you beat the system by pissing directly into the urinal sink and not washing your hands?

  • Yeah those are the left and right respectively

  • From my perspective, he is probably referring to chromeOS’s crosvm container, which virtualises a debian install (or other distros). Since Chromebooks are popular in schools, predominantly in the USA but even still globally, students are likely to attempt to gain further functionality out of their devices, and hence experiment with Linux, get used to it and possibly install it on different devices (or on that same Chromebook through the mrchromebox firmware) in the future.

    Edit: alternatively, he could just be referring to flooding the market with cheap Linux laptops for specific purposes like education workflows or standard consumer workflows, just like how Chromebooks achieved that footing in the market.

  • I actually had an AI assist me in flashing the firmware, as well as flashing a custom ROM later on, of a phone I was just testing on for fun, and I was only confident since I had a chunk of prior knowledge of ADB as well as other tools and the differences between mobile and desktop system structures, and for the stuff I didn’t understand or know, I just researched externally and figured it out.

    Blindly trusting it though is a fools errand, just like myself a few years back messing with my laptop’s Linux install, copy pasting everything and then complaining when shit broke.

  • Nah, more like ANDS - American Neuron Deficiency Syndrome

  • Got permabanned on every account as well as IP and device banned, and this was literally only from commenting in the same community I was banned from on a different account which never touched the device I commented on, nor the email connected to the account I commented on.

  • Honestly, I would’ve guessed more

  • terrible day to have hyperphantasia

  • I've actually begun DIYing a syncthing based mesh of my devices plus a NAS I'll make from an old ThinkPad because honestly, fuck those cloud services.

    I used to love the cloud, I saw it as really convenient, but now I just see it as a pretty ok way to back up all my old school work, plus OneDrive screaming at me to sign in, then automatically signing me in without asking...

    Sure the DIY NAS I'm making is just an old ThinkPad 11e school laptop's board and battery, and some USB to m.2 dongles, but it'll be pretty damn good for a net cost of probably 100 bucks total

  • So I guess you can be a smart fella AND a fart smella
