    There's no evidence to support that. There's even arguments to be made that Internet and cell phones have ruined segments of society. We need to take a step back and make sure new …

    The world and its people would continue to thrive if AI data centers magically vanished tomorrow. They are not necessary infrastructure. They're only necessary for wall street righ…

    There's still banks that have useful websites and physical locations.

    This is definitely Google's fault. Google allows kids to make webpages at sites.google.com where they embed web games. And because teachers also host content on the same domain, IT…

    There's games like Fortnite that have multiple games and modes within it, each with separate age ratings. Fortnite's parental controls allow parents to whitelist the various featur…

    Haven't video games solved this a long time ago with age ratings on the games themselves? Sony and Microsoft's parental controls are convoluted garbage with logins galore. But Nint…

    I don't use local models often enough, but this convinced me to uninstall ollama. Now I need to figure out which of the options at the end of that post is the best alternative for …

    This is a tangent, but people who advocate for "government like a business" are mental. Businesses want to profit and grow. The government should never be looking to profit off of …

    You talk as if all Steam games use Steam DRM. No, it's not GOG but it's not the same category as Sony and Microsoft at all. It's starting to sound disingenuous when I see Steam lum…

    Flying is fun. But shooting Cessnas out of the sky is more fun! I'm kidding around. I run 31b models myself too and am perfectly happy with them.

    Same here. I use Firefox for everything, and uninstall all the junk via adb. Also low power mode not only for battery efficiency, but to prevent most background services from runni…
