  • Study Boldly Claims 4K And 8K TVs Aren't Much Better Than HD To Your Eyes, But Is It True?

  • There's this thing called scaling that allows you to see things in an appropriate size but higher definition.

    Anyone who uses spreadsheets regularly wants the extra real estate. Anyone who works with complex documents wants the extra real estate.

    It's not about more dots on your 24 inch, it's about larger monitors that can display more stuff simultaneously. Instead of 4x 1080p monitors you can have 2x larger 4k monitors. Offer this to anyone who makes money by staring at a screen all day and they'll tell you it's worth it.

  • What about the vast majority of people who stare at screens for work?

    Frame rates aren't really important, it's making things more readable in less space.

    The cost / benefit is a completely different dynamic.

  • The resolution (4k in this case) defines the number of pixels to be shown to the user. The bitrate defines how much data is provided in the file or stream. A codec is the method for converting data to pixels.

    Suppose you've recorded something in 1080p (low resolution). You could convert it to 4k, but the codec has to make up the pixels that can't be computed from the data.

    In summary, the TV in my living room might be more capable, but my streaming provider probably isn't sending enough data to really use it.

  • But the Epstein Ballroom is gonna be pretty great though? Also Trump is going to pay himself $230m so that's good. ... and lets not forget all the poors who are being punished.

  • Donald Trump sued over east wing demolition

  • You're right, but I think this falls into the "don't obey in advance" rule of resistance to autocracy.

    I've long since lost the will to support this type of action, like yourself I suppose. Everything is fucked all the way down. You can't not-lose in a corrupt court system.

    However, I think it's important that every authoritarian action is challenged, because if you don't challenge then you really are kind of obeying in advance.

  • Are there any decent GPT-detection tools that can be run locally?

    Jump

  • Sorry I'm still not really sure what you're asking for.

    I use Open Web UI, which is the worst name ever, but it's a web ui for interacting with chat format gen AI models.

    You can install that locally and point it at any of the models hosted remotely by an inference provider.

    So you host the UI but someone else is doing the GPU intensive "inference".

    There seems to be some models for t his task available on huggingface like this one:

    https://huggingface.co/fakespot-ai/roberta-base-ai-text-detection-v1

    The difficulty may be finding a model which is hosted by an inference provider. Most of the models available on huggingface are just the binary model which you can download and run locally. The popular ones are hosted by inference providers so you can just point a query at their API and get a response.

    As an aside, it's possible or likely that you know more about how Gen AI works than I do, but I think this type of "probability table for the next token" is from the earlier generations. Or, this type of probability inference might be a foundational concept, but there's a lot more sophistication layered on top now. I genuinely don't know. I'm super interested in these technologies but there's a lot to learn.

  • Trump Calls Cattle Ranchers Ungrateful After They Say He Betrayed Them

    Jump

  • Exactly!

    Its so stupid and simple and obvious is absolutely on brand for Trump.

    We need $20b.

    Sure ok how about $40b. You could invest half in this amazing new crypto coin.

  • What is your opinion on ghosting?

  • Obviously, everyone is free to do as they wish provided that it doesn't harm others.

    Someone can choose to ghost you if they so choose, but of course you might feel offended at that which is fine too.

  • Trump is ‘gonna be president’ in 2028, MAGA leader bluntly declares: ‘There’s a plan’

    Jump

  • Exactly, there's no mystery. This is the plan.

  • Trump Hosts Dinner for Wealthy Donors to White House Ballroom

    Jump

  • Just going to point out the obvious - these are bribes.

    When you give money to help people who need food or accommodation or education or medical services that's a donation. When you give money to the president to build a ball room that's a bribe.

    I have an astonishingly stupid question about feeding my cat. Help please?

    Jump

  • Solid advice here.

    "My cat pukes"

    "Maybe it's the saw dust and toe nails in the food"

    Sorry. I'm not a cat person but even I know chicken butt-hole is a cheap filler in pet food but commonly causes allergies. A slow feeder sounds like it will cause more problems than it solves.

  • There are no decent GPT-detection tools.

    If there were they would be locally hosted language models, and you'd need a reasonable GPU.

    Hard to believe this would entice anyone to purchase where a sexy lady couldn't.
