I’d agree with that use of ads.

Hell, my last laptop purchase was because of an ad, but I bought a totally different company’s laptop.

I agree with the sentiment (ads blocked in so many ways here).

However, people are looking to buy things and ads do work. I used to discover cool products and go to cool events I found because of ads and algorithms.

But I swear I haven’t seen anything worth buy for years before I went full anti-ad. Its all temu drop shipped garbage and AI cheating tools now. I don’t even get hot singles like the good old days!

I have been putting off scheduling my next therapy appointment.

Ya wanna host it on my forgejo instance?

I’m about to move it to a kubenetes cluster once my parts come in.

I always am shocked at how detailed the reports are, but I imagine they have to legally record and report on absolutely everything they found even if its irrelevant.

A grad course in AI/LLM/ML might actually be useful. Its where my old roommates learned about Googles Transformers and got into LLMs before the hype bubble in 2018.

Home might get ahead of the curve for the next over inflated hype bubble and then proceed to make unearned garbage loads of money and have learned something other than how to put ChatGPT in a new wrapper.

What do you mean? The genocide is still happening so its clearly winning.

Censorship?

What is missing from the original?

I’ve only played the remaster.

Fuck yes dude! I’m so excited to play this!

I doubt that.

Windows isnt built for you its built for me, a Systems Admin.

It is so easy to get all my corporate logging and compliance software onto that thing. Its objectively spyware but the feds and the insurance companies said to do it so I do.

Oh and copilot, by the gods, its so nice to give Microsoft full access to all my emails, teams messages, and notes so it can so quickly answer questions for me on everything. Only works if it’s ya know spying on you and you’re spending hundreds a year to use it. But it is great.

Fully agree. I tried to make the SC work and wrote off a lot of it as “I’m just not used to it”, but it really is asking a lot. In its defence, it was a first run product. The fact that it’s still ass usable and as weird is impressive enough to me. But it’s better as a piece of gaming history than a good product. It was just a good try.

I also agree with the Steam deck controls being actually good. I want the SC2 that’s just a steam deck without the screen or computer.

So I guess the opposite of the steam brick.

I’d gladly pay $100 to have a steam deck like control scheme for my desktop. Rechargeable batteries and a Linux first design would be awesome. I don’t mind just using cables all the time, but I would like better wireless options for Linux gamepads (though to be fair, I haven’t tried connecting a wireless controller to a Linux box in 5 years).

Bro how much did Desantis pay to get this angle on the header?

Zigzag

Uh, it’s crinkle cut and someone will die on my hill.

That’s a shower thought of all time.

Whack. I just set up a Forgejo too.

That’s crazy.

Anyways I’m gonna pitch never buying a Samsung phone again to the HR people if this comes true.

I am a fan of LLMs and what they can do, and as such have a server specifically for running AI models. However, I’ve been reading “Atlas of AI” by Kate Crawford and you’re right. So much of the data that they’re trained on is inherently harmful or was taken without consent. Even in the more ethical data sets it’s probably not great considering the sheer quantity of data needed to make even a simple LLM.

I still like using it for simple code generation (this is just a hobby to me so Vibe coding isn’t a problem in my scenario) and corporate tone policing. And I tell people non stop that it’s worthless outside of these use cases and maybe as a search engine, but I recommend Wikipedia as a better start almost Everytime.

I was honestly impressed with the speed and accuracy I was getting with Deepseek, llama, and Gemma on my 1660ti.

$100 used and it was seconds to get responses.

Very Greg shaped guy
