  Okay, so if I come up with a random question about some Framework, your brain will give me the answer?

  Why can’t they stop users from downloading Chrome by suggesting Firefox 😔

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mozilla's new CEO says AI is coming to Firefox, but will remain a choice⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I use LLMs on a daily basis as a search engine replacement and, to a limited degree, for coding (e.g. comments, boilerplate). I am not against it coming to my browser in principle, but on the other hand, I can just visit Lumo, Duck AI or whatever else to have AI in my browser. So the Mozilla basically has to find an answer to the question of why I need more.

  Oh yes? Who says that? God I can’t take it, I swear I’m gonna cut myself… irl and in Minecraft.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI finds errors in 90% of Wikipedia's best articles⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I appreciate that you have taken the time to verify and correct them. This is using AI exactly as it is meant to be used for once.

  What you didn’t mention tho: Have you searched these articles for false nagatives? Did you get any false positives? Because the result sounds nice, but it doesn’t have to be.

  If ChatGPT overlooks too many errors, it might improve quality, but at the same time give you a false sense of security/correctness.

  Even states that really want to can’t just build a nuke, and most people are short about a state to do so

  Strike evrything and put rent there. That’s the most expensive cities.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Will quantum be bigger than AI?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Quantum computing sure is interesting, but everyone with the tiniest understanding of the matter should now that it’s use is limited.

  It is really great for hardware acceleration of stochastic processes for example, which may or may not be AI, but there is a reason we mostly deal with integers in IT: It is much simpler and they are sufficient for a vast amount of use cases.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I am fucking tired of this shitty behavior.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You do realize that (some) subs on Reddit block new users as well?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I am fucking tired of this shitty behavior.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Banning a username doesn’t solve the problem tho - you can create new accounts anyway. And banning accounts with similar names as well creates all kinds of problems.

  Maybe some kind of probation could help? For example, a user could be invisible for everyone but their home instance for some time. If they are then reported and banned, they never appear on another instance to begin with. Could do this for both comments and content.

  You can totally manage a fleet of Linux devices. Next to all servers run Linux. How the hell would you do that without appropriate tooling? We use Ansible for example - Which certainly isn’t a perfect solution, but a working one.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft confirms Windows 11 is about to change massively, gets enormous backlash - Neowin⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You say that, yet Mac and Linux grew quite a bit over the past couple years. It’s true, not everyone will drop Windows right after whatever bullshit they announce. But software and platforms are rarely abandonned over night.

  Personally, I found that It works well with Microsoft, Paypal, Google, Shopify and Proton. I was really surprised to find the option on German government sites, worked there as well. Tested in Ungoogled Chromium and Librewolf. The only thing I find dissappointing is adoption

  You cannot permanently record public places and you may not publish recordings of people (as in them being the main content in the video) without their consent. A temporary recording or live stream should be pretty much a non-issue, especially if you don’t do anything with it other than watching it.

  Note that you can share games from GOG, but it is illegal probably everywhere where GOG is available and if law enforcement ever catches on, you’re fucked.

  Afaik this is not happening right now, but there’s nothing stopping GOG from poisoning your downloads in a way that ties all copies to your account
