it’s not really an “answer” to chatgpt or other LLMs at all. it’s a workspace. you still have to plug your own AI into it be it locally hosted or subscription based.

It’s like saying “PewDiePie has made a FREE Engine Mount that looks to be an answer to Honda’s Civic Engine” that doesn’t make a whole lot of sense.

I just don’t think people are buying RAM/other PC parts period. new or used.

I’ve have a listing selling a couple year old sticks of 16gb (32gb total) of DDR4 ram for $120 for like 4 weeks now and not a peep from anyone. I’ve seen other listings for ram at similar price points that have also been up for weeks.

So i’m not sure if there’s an actual shortage or people just simply aren’t buying.

as a Canadian: “Oh no!..anyways…”

yeah, these “threats” aren’t very threatening anymore. we just don’t really care.

in like 2010-2012 I was making 68K a year and paying $700 in rent a month for a large 1 bedroom flat. I had more money and space than I knew what to do with. My only bills were rent, phone, and internet. that’s it. no debt, no credit card, nothing. so all my monthly bills combined was like $800. Every Tuesday I’d buy pretty much every new game release. all of them. I’d eat out or order in daily, I didn’t bother cooking or do grocery shopping. I’d buy dinner for friends, offer to pay the bill, etc. I was never broke. I had friggin 58k in disposable income!

Now if I was making 68k a year in the same city I’d be struggling. my rent for the same place would have more than tripled, probably way more. phone and internet would have gone way up. the fact that it’s gotten so much worse so rapidly is incredibly scary. At one point in my life in my early 30s I REALLY wanted kids, I really wanted to get married. now? forget about it. I’m in my 40s now and while I’m comfortable there’s no way in hell I’d ever want to expose children to this and the eventual future. I’m not bringing someone into this world to only say “welp, good luck!”. So I don’t even bother being in a relationship anymore, there’s no point. I consciously made the decision a few years ago to stop dating. When I get asked out I politely decline. I’ve lived with two different women on two separate occasions in my life so I experienced it. I’m good. Now it’s just making sure I earn enough to keep a roof over my head, my stomach fed, and my computer functioning until my body decides it’s time to go. I don’t care about eating healthy (i’m not over weight), I still smoke cigarettes, and I rarely go to the doctor even though I’m in Canada. I’m just making zero effort to prolong my life at this point because…again…what’s the point? I’ve lived it, I’ll slip out when the 'ol ticker decides its time. I don’t want to keep living this bullshit economy and i’m tired of seeing the younger generations having no choice but to struggle. honestly if I croak before I hit 50 i’ll be happy.

yeah I started with “The Black Echo” and been hooked on his stuff ever since. finished two other Bosch and Lincoln Lawyer books in a week. I love how all his books/characters share a same universe and they all cross over with each other. I haven’t watched either of the two shows yet on bosch and haller but apparently they don’t share the same universe as the books.

This reads EXACTLY like the Michael Connelly novel I just read “The Proving Ground”.

AI tells kid to kill his ex-girlfriend, parents sue the company, Indian engineer who was a whistleblower that worked at said company and was a key witness for the trial found dead in apartment of apparent suicide.

Good book btw. for a mystery novel Connelly really knew his shit about LLMs.

because they don’t need refugee status. They’re utilizing this as loop hole to circumvent proper methods of immigration. you know like the people who literally pay thousands of dollars to properly immigrate to the US. These people aren’t fleeing anything remotely close to an emergency or crisis they’re simply immigrating while saving a few bucks in the process.

This is also a very easy way for the current administration to bring in more white people who share the same views and opinions of said administration. it’s text book fascism. kick out the colored bring in the right white.

welp just closed my bitwarden account and switched to keepassxc. honestly works a hell of a lot better on qutebrowser than bitwarden did.

I can only imagine this guy’s news sources.

Asmongold.

still use mine almost daily. thing is built like a damn brick house too, rock solid. Metroid and Final Fantasy Tactics Advance are my go tos.

If you’re paying $200+ a month for a tool that doesn’t work then i’m sorry but you deserve to potentially have your bank account wiped out by it.

nah Americans are convinced weekend protests every few months and midterm elections will save them. Most simply don’t care or are too broke to care.

this is actually what it should be used for. If companies pivoted their AI use to exactly that I almost guarantee you peoples opinions, i.e. middle manager wannabe techbros on linkedin, would change on it. But this is what AI should be used for. mundane project management style tasks. let your devs do dev work, let your upper management continue to do nothing and reap the rewards, and get rid of the yes men/women in the middle. THAT’s when you’ll see the shift.

pretty much anything that is “you build it youself” so Arch, NixOS, Gentoo, etc

but yeah I’m also tempted to finally give BSD a go.

May fall off? hell you can total a Cybertruck with your bare hands. you can probably just pull them off without any tools.

you know at this point it wouldn’t surprise me if LLMs were trained on his crap specifically. I mean apparently game microtransactions with like CoD were his idea, 4chans /pol/ was his idea, all the other crap that we now deal with were his ideas. ALL the bullshit we deal with today can pretty much be directly attributed to this ass clown.

bingo. lets see how many emdashes are in the note.

but how does the “subscription” stuff work if you self host? I’m not gonna use fluxer on their servers because they put dumb shit behind a paywall like discord does.

character limit, upload limit, community limit, no username per server unless you pay for a subscription? hard pass.

This won’t become federated simply because of the fact you have to pay to unlock these features. If I made a fluxer server then I wouldn’t charge my users for having a stupid animated gif avatar. I know discord is shit but this thing ain’t the alternative.
