- Comment on AMD's legacy Ryzen 7 5800X3D chips now sell for up to $800, more than a new 9800X3D — AM4 chip costs twice as much as MSRP, as enthusiasts flock to old DDR4 memory 2 days ago:
I love my AM4 5800X3D system. Paired with a 6900 XT (nice card) and 64 gigs of ram there is nothing it can’t run for me. I have played with newer gen stuff and its all worse (ether bad linux support, stability, or the hardware cooks itself).
I honestly wonder if this shift away from consumer facing products has something to do with the plateauing of hardware as much as chasing a quick buck. I would think that if AMD just restarted 5800X3D production people would be happy.

Not american, But most of the world does not have the network. And Europe might have a good enough network, but not everywhere, and who knows if the current network will handle the sort of extra load that moving everything off local hardware.

We would need a better general network for that. Remember stadia? Nothing has changes since then, hell some areas have even lost some capacity.
- Comment on AI-generated code contains more bugs and errors than human output 3 days ago:
Well right now I have autocorrect changing real words for jumbles of letters due to years of myself working with acronyms and autocomplete changing words like both to bitch, for to fuck, etc. due to systems changing less used words for more used words (making the issue worse).
- Comment on AI-generated code contains more bugs and errors than human output 3 days ago:
I was wondering how they could make autocomplete worse, and now I know.

- Comment on U.S. Pedestrian Deaths Up 77% Since 2009 & The Auto Industry Knew It Would Happen 2 weeks ago:
My old job had me going to a lot of places in very bad conditions and off road. I always drove an audi or a subaru and watched the lifted trucks spin out / go in the ditch / flip over / get stuck / and generally have a poor showing.

Interesting, makes me very confused on why we added nicotine to tobacco on top of what is in it already (my uncle worked on a tobacco farm as a young man and did spray the stuff). I guess they really wanted that nicotine…

Gee, there was no way they would have been able to change this…
- Comment on American exceptionalism 2 weeks ago:
I am sure they think that it is the tobacco that is a insecticide and not the nicotine that was added to said tobacco…

I have had 5 of the things so far in my life, not one headgasket needed. Its the coolant additives that eat the gaskets, use the right coolant and no issues. Well that and don’t bounce on the redline like an idiot.

- Comment on OpenAI needs to raise at least $207bn by 2030 so it can continue to lose money, HSBC estimates 4 weeks ago:
Ha, the sad part is that meth use will increase inversely relative to the average households buying power. Meth is always affordable… just need to rip the wires out of your houses skin.
I first noticed the raw material value oddity was years ago when a bank was trying to sell me on a saving product, the return was below inflation and therefor useless. So I looked it up and if I bought a large amount of lead, and put it in my yard the lead cube would (even with the lead being loss into my grass) be worth enough after 10 years to give a better return then what the bank was offering.

Bail out almost anyone that bought tech stocks? Seems unlikely, and it would be basically admitting the end of the stock markets legitimacy. Bailouts tend to be for companies on the edge of collapse.

I am at a loss to what that would even look like. The bubble popping would mean the admission of AI (LLMs) not having a viable path to usefulness or return, so then what would a bail out even be? Money? To what end, the bubble would have burst and the idea of AI (LLMs) being anything but a money pit would be what makes the bubble burst in the first place. Unless they can show a path to profit (they can’t) then the bubble will burst in time or continue in an endless zombie state where they just pretend that somehow AI (LLMs) are the future while burning capital. If it does go into a zombie state (as so many other things in the us market are becoming) then the whole market will just slowly fail as the “hype” turns into disappointment. The only reason that the zombie state would be preferable is that entities need to invest their money somewhere and maybe some other thing in the market can take AI (LLMs) place, but even then why bother bailing out anyone?

You are also supposed to have wages that keep up with the cost of living, A non us medical system, 65% of americans not living paycheck to paycheck, and a democratic system with more then two choices.

- Comment on Open Source Developers Are Exhausted, Unpaid, and Ready to Walk Away 5 weeks ago:
Same as all other tax funded projects, by some elected people who likely have no idea about the project.
Joking aside, we will see more of this funding due to governments moving to open source software as they tend to want to fund their own stuff.
