Honestly my thoughts on how I’d actually use AI… versus OpenAI’s are exactly the opposite. Honestly I could see a world where a lot of people get an on site LLM server. Plug it in etc… I could actually see that as useful, IE keep it air gapped, and then you can train it off of your e-mails, your house etc…, not trust everything to some outside company. From what I’m gathering from the chinese open source models that sounds very viable.

Of course the ultimate annoyance is, the datacenter surge is actually taking compute out of regular price ranges.

Actually annoyingly makes me think of the point in time that electricity itself was at this crossroads, where eddison wanted every house to have a DC generator, while Tesla was pushing for AC transmission to send current from centralized locations

I mean it sounds pretty rough… and it would seem to me the real problem is they are making it sound like the problem is the existing routers. Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t it basically saying… someone could drop in a battery powered wifi router in your front yard and spy through your walls?

very true, I had to get slow feeding bowls for 2 of my dogs, because they regularly will eat too fast and throw up everything.

lol the amount of times I’ve seen AI do.

No wait that’s wrong try this

Oh wait that’s also wrong that still doesn’t work try this.

No still wouldn’t do it.

On just questions without asking it to correct itself, (which tells me internally they have some kind of… basically reviewing it’s own answers before they go out.

Honestly I do wonder if we’ll get there

a hello world program would just spin back and forth “Rejected demanded these fixes”, Rejected making it more like the original, rejected. retrying

“you have spent your entire $50,000 token budget… would you like to restock and keep going”.

Obviously as AI improves at clerking, it gradually works it’s way up the ladder, for a while we’ll have our VIBE lawyers until they can be fully replaced with full AI lawyers, and then repeat the process for judges.

Damn… I’m amazed that wasn’t a bigger story, I think that really would have hurt his legacy as the beloved naked gun actor.

I still remember the futurama episode where they find an actual phone booth, and respond “Oh wow, they put phones in booths now, that’s amazing, now I don’t have to carry this phone in my pocket all the time!”

He’s mad because he’s going to miss being able to watch playgrounds without violating his restraining orders.

I mean you can go both ways. If godot fell behind then it would be argued that it’s not it’s primary language. IE I’m not a huge expert on how the languages work. but I’d imagine godot would be less efficiant when using the languages that it supports, but wasn’t built for.

That’s like competing in a reading contest with your second language, versus an opponent who only speaks the language.

I believe burners are still feasible, it’s been several years since I’ve done it, but at least as far as I know trackphones let you buy them with cash, buy a card for service with cash. Some stores with policies try to comply with a law that never passed, but I’m pretty sure that option is still around. But yeah using other peoples phones, payphones etc… is always a possibility as well.

I mean it’s also 2026… you can drive 3 cities away, buy a burner phone with cash. Make a call, smash the phone with a rock and throw it in a dumpster. Then it’s down to scary facial recognition tech assuming the store you bought it from has security cameras.

Of curriosity is there much to hate on her, or is it just the normal right wing “comic is woke” and she charges for nudes?

My thoughts also… who the hell posts more than 50 times a day… well that’s twitter isn’t probably paid for with our tax dollars anyway.

Or, perhaps just less “politically motivated people”. With musks constant butting heads with his own AI when it keeps calling him out on his BS, and he’s constantly retraining it and trying to “remove the woke virus”. I think basically you give AIs access to sources, let it prioritize experts in their fields, and you wind up with the classic “reality has a strong left wing bias”. factor.

Sorry I meant android/iphone apps and browser extensions. It would seem to me that’s the easier part with all the work done on making the client.

would it be also plausible for say vaultwarden to make it’s own client and just completely fork over if bitwarden becomes less open?

*doesn’t charge you an extra subscription to be able to play games online. obviously games themselves may make their own choice on whether to charge you to play them online.

Exactly that’s how it was before the begining of this year, now everything new is being produced exclusively for data centers… so now it’s just us trying to outbid eachother for years old hardware.

I mean that’s largely true, but it’s not like PC hardware isn’t currently relevant to the current system as well. About 2-3 years ago I went all out and built my son a 3 grand gaming PC (divorced dad energy), about a month ago I looked up the parts. The exact same build that’s now 2-3 years more outdated components, would run about 5 grand now.

So yeah… while I’ve been largely out of consoles for a while now. gaming hardware in general is pricing everyone out right now as data centers are bidding everyone up…

I don’t think marketing was wave’s problem… nobody understood what the hell wave was. I used it for a few months… and I can’t tell you what the hell it was.
