  • they just don't sugarcoat

    To the contrary, they massively inflate whatever they can find that will gather clicks.

  • That would defeat the entire purpose of sensationalist headlines and blowing up a Google search as a "deep investigation" which is this channel's main source of attention.

    They want the clicks on YouTube. Moving to PeerTube would be great if they just wanted the information to be out there, but that's not their primary concern.

  • Imagine an alligator. Quite good at catching prey with their current anatomy.

    An alligator that shoots laser beams for tracking and bullets would be even better. There's however no path from their current anatomy to this state, regardless of the randomness and timescale for mutations. In fact, in order to achieve this higher state several non advantageous intermediates would be necessary and therefore never selected for.

    So no, evolution can't achieve global maxima, it can however optimize the shit out of what it's given to work with.

  • Shit like this is why we need open source printers!

  • Apple also considered printers for a while and decided this mess is untouchable

  • Taylor Swift’s new album comes in cassette. Who is buying those?

    Jump

  • Naturally. But the comment is not comparing tape to other media, so your rant is not relevant. We are talking about tape players.

  • VHS isn't coming back because you simply can't buy a CRT and VCR. These are no longer being made, the existing ones are degrading and overpriced.

    Otherwise they'd absolutely be back, a lot of videos on YouTube and TikTok are specifically longing for VHS.

  • Don't listen to "audiophiles" otherwise literally no audio equipment is ever good, and it becomes a who can spend the most money contest.

    A cassette player from FiiO will sound absolutely great and work fine.

  • Sam Altman admits OpenAI ‘totally screwed up’ its GPT-5 launch and says the company will spend trillions of dollars on data centers

    Jump

  • It doesn't have "3 million bits of info" on a specific topic, or even if it did, it wouldn't be able to directly measure it. It's worth reading a bit about how LLMs work behind the hood, because although somewhat dense if you're new to the concepts, you come out knowing a lot more about what to expect when using them, what the limitations actually are and how to use them better if you decide to go that route.

    Jump

  • LLMs don't have any awareness of their internal state, so there's no way for them to see something as a gap of knowledge.

  • That's mostly related to Windows Defender intercepting reads and writes and hasn't truly been fixed.

    Sometimes it's literally faster to read a database using WSL than the native system.

  • Because of bitches like you.

    I'm a man, you moron. Care to provide any proof that data being reliably collected all across the world, using peer reviewed methodology, is flawed? That's some bold claim. I'd love to see you prove violent crime rates between men and women are actually secretly the same.

  • Singles are in your area!

    Jump

  • And the post implies that most men do.

    Not really. The image (which might I remind you is a comic strip, not some article published on Science or an opinion piece on the New York Times) implies that women feel very differently about "random strangers of the opposite sex near you right now!" than men do.

    And that's true, precisely because of the data you just agreed is valid. If I say to a guy friend "dude you're not going to believe this, we were invited to a party with 50 girls and we will be the only two men!" he'll have a profoundly different reaction than if a girl heard from a friend "girl you're not going to believe this, we were invited to a party with 50 men and we will be the only two girls!". It doesn't matter to them, at this point, "oH nOt AlL MeN aRe DaNGeRoUs" what matters is that they'd be in a inherently more dangerous position than men would be in the opposite scenario.

    The comic strip is noticing the difference in gut feeling and reaction, not proposing a thesis on men's criminality.

  • They most certainly will not switch (or switch and not decide to go back after a few weeks) with the timing of the release of Battlefield 6, which requires Windows. It's an EA game, so I'm not touching that, but they're doing a lot of marketing and it's working.
