They will just let people use some micro model that’s basically as good as the current mini one and call it a day

Unlike this place, I bet most people out there actually enjoy Google’s AI summaries. I mean, it’s almost the Wikipedia article verbatim, but if you just need to know what a thing is, they actually save people time

Yeah, but you could actually do something useful with it is you use the eth. Right now the th digraph does an okay job. In the cases it doesn’t make useful distinctions like mouth noun and verb using eth would actually work to show voicing, but writing a thorn doesn’t disambiguate
- Comment on I'm archiving Picocrypt · Issue #134 · Picocrypt/Picocrypt 4 days ago:
Is there a reason you don’t distinguish the voiced and unvoiced variants?

You see in 1948 where it’s 4.5 and jumps to 9 a year later? That’s a 50% crash in a year
Next year it’s 15. In 1952 it’s already 28. In 1956 it’s 40, up from 28 a year earlier. Crashed again in 58, 62, 64, 72, 74, 75, 77, 78, 79, 81, 82, 84, 86, 88, 89, 90, 02, 03, 13, 15, 18, 19, 20, 22, 23
My previous 10 times comment was taking consecutive years as a single crash
- Comment on SEC says it will deregulate cryptocurrencies with 'Project Crypto' 1 week ago:
It crashed ten times since 1975

Just because you can do something in another way doesn’t make every other way bad

It’s easy if you want to pay $50 for a wire for your $10 transfer
- Comment on SEC says it will deregulate cryptocurrencies with 'Project Crypto' 1 week ago:
What are you talking about? It crashed, then crashed again, then crashed again. How is that stable?
- Comment on SEC says it will deregulate cryptocurrencies with 'Project Crypto' 1 week ago:
Same thing happened to the Argentine peso, let’s not pretend if you make a government currency it’s magically stable

When you change btc into eth the IRS considers it realizing your capital gains. Even though you don’t have USD to pay extra taxes with.
- Comment on SEC says it will deregulate cryptocurrencies with 'Project Crypto' 1 week ago:
You mean the value that crashed like 30% over two years? At least bitcoin went back up
- Comment on SEC says it will deregulate cryptocurrencies with 'Project Crypto' 1 week ago:
It’s easy to transfer to other countries. Ever tried to send $20 to another country like Kazakhstan? It’s a nightmare

I regularly watch kids shows in Korean. Not because I’m a Korean baby, but because it’s a lower level vocabulary to learn the language
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
I watch videos about Sierra games, nobody below the age of 30 played those

Watch videos about planning your retirement, listen to some classical music and the Beatles. Finish the session off by searching for arthritis

- Comment on Nvidia plans to boost presence in Israel with multibillion-dollar tech campus in north 1 week ago:
Well, the MSRP is fake because they don’t make nearly as many of them to keep the price at $250. This is because it’s a loss leader, Intel just wants people to buy them and establish a foothold in the industry.
Of course, MSRPs are now fake by every manufacturer because reviewers review against it and gave AMD bad reviews when they released cards at real MSRP
MSRP $700, card sells at $700
Bad value!
MSRP $550, card sells at $750
Amazing value! Too bad they are selling out so quick you can’t get it at MSRP!
- Comment on Nvidia plans to boost presence in Israel with multibillion-dollar tech campus in north 2 weeks ago:
It’s considered budget now. At $250 MSRP it’s equal to the cheapest release by Nvidia

- Comment on Server access from China 2 weeks ago:
Just connect, they don’t block random IPs for no reason. You need to transfer a lot of traffic to trigger something
- Comment on Server access from China 2 weeks ago:
So why not just use that just works all the time? I don’t want my internet voice call to cut in the middle and have to switch VPNs
- Comment on Server access from China 2 weeks ago:
Normal VPN doesn’t work because they don’t mask themselves. Even Tor bridges don’t work because they are blocked.
Shadowsocks is like 2018 advice, go directly to xray and forget about legacy software
- Comment on Server access from China 2 weeks ago:
Well, no, if you open a wireguard connection it well just get dropped in a minute. You need to do a lot more work than that
- Comment on Server access from China 2 weeks ago:
You realize not only Google is blocked, but also Brave search, duckduckgo, everything but Russian and Chinese search engines? You can’t find anything on them except scams and SEO spam
