4k is only expected to be 1080p + DLSS, it's really good enough for that class of HW

I don't want an apple blob I want to pick specific components and run linux

I play inverted mouse on every game because that was the default on Descent, my first 3D game. At least that's what I remember. However this version uses mouse up/down to do up/dow…

Once your data is out there it's too late. If the hypothetical country you live in - where freedom & due process is respected - suddenly has an authoritarian change of direction, y…

I fail to see how this particular "anime girl" and the potential for clients seeing it, could make you think that's a fair request. That seems extremely ridiculous to me.

I don't. "safety" as it exists really feels like infantilization, condescention, hand holding and enforcement of American puritanism. It's insulting. Safety should really just be a…

Unless someone is hurt you can believe what you want. Otherwise it's necessary to weight what's to be gained and lost by entertaining net negative stances on frivolous grounds; and…

Sure, I am quite against all of them already: The first one has been argued against quite nicely by Piketty, it's how you get plutocracy The three other ones should not be treated …

I'm unsure why dead people would have rights. Is that concept really a good thing?

You still at least need a recent kernel

No. Humans should follow the law, and if they have to be stuck behind a robot that does to do so themselves, so be it.

Not only in science. Even (or especially) in impartial journalism or public debate, there's no valid reason why any unfounded (thus illegitimate) opinions should get as much consid…

I thought the latest llama were not from FAIR but from the genai team

If it still works for you, it's because you've temporarily workarounded its automatic disablement, and that won't last much longer...

Are you being purposefully controversial (to not say trollish)? To the exact contrary to what you assert, one of the prominent argument against Gnome that I've been seing times and…

It's a bit of a false comparison, since you wouldn't have to pay monthly subscriptions to others stores as you have to for streaming services.

I did use literally correctly. And I can't agree with you. As a non native speaker, I deeply appreciate people making an effort to use language correctly to transmit information. I…

The meaning is likely understood/inferred by many if not most, sure. It's still a "contresens" (can't find the right word in English, literally counter to its meaning), and should …

Objective reality, it exists. Telling your audience obviously false / anti-factual lies, without any regard for fact checking, is not just "biased reporting". And it is inherently …

Yet Another Benchmark, great I love benchmarks(!) but, will this page be kept up2date?

Nice ! Could we please get benchmarks for architect / DeepSeek R1 + claude-3-7-20250219 ? To compare perf and price with Sonnet-3.7-thinking

I don't think that's what the words value and worth mean. It seems obvious to me that the value of a book teaching me something is not its price, and if that book was free it would…

The Open(Closed)AIs of the world have millions of dollars to spend on IP datasets. Arguing that copyright forbids training AI models without paying authors is the moat that would p…

In any case it's really easy to configure a BitTorrent client to never seed. It would be dumb not to when torrenting for work.

Steam can fill up much more I'm getting my Steam games at 2Gbps, and I am suspecting that my aging ISP's "box" is to blame for the cap (didn't want to pay my ISP for the new box th…
