    They don't know why nerds care, but they will find out when they have to replace their PC just to have enough RAM to run a weather app.

    And this is why Windows will have it's lunch eaten by Linux.

    Which of those country examples have AI being used as a means of economic and military control and coercion? Ukraine and Iran, no. I'm not familiar with the others.

    What exactly happens to a "losing" country when it has been AI "dominated"?

    Don't give up yet. Lemmy is good, but not enough people on there for network effect to kick in yet. I think once the enshittification gets too bad for even the average person, peop…

    What do you mean it's defunct? I use old.reddit.com all the time. If old.reddit.com goes, I'm done with reddit. I might try out some kind of alternative front end from https://gith…

    My uninformed guess as a non-murican would be that it's just zoned as a business. I doubt there would be a special zoning category exclusively for strip clubs.

    Well, there's a lot of things you can expect from Apple customers.

    I'm not new to command line tools, but I somehow managed to delete ~10k pictures while trying to use parallel to resize them. I forget the details but it was some kind of surprisin…

    How large is a model, like Mythos for example? Multiple Tb? If that happened, what would people need to run it?

    What's odd to me is that companies don't seem to be targeting the niche anymore? When there's no cheap but ok product, common sense would dictate that somebody would try to fill th…

    Australian public transport is pretty good in my experience. I certainly don't expect to be stabbed or sit in piss.

    You're the one who called it punishing. It's just doing business with who you want. It's just dumb for Russia to do it when they have so few cards to play. Originally I thought you…

    That hasn't worked for me in a lot of instances, and still copies a lot of tracking info.

    I'm Australian but I downloaded that show to listen to it. It was surreal hearing him say, "we're under attack" when the second plane hit. He did a great job.

    The bank makes money on chargebacks, so they have an incentive to allow a certain level of scams.
