This site is seemingly for hardcore left-leaning people. Center and right wing are censored, banned, without violating rules, just like reddit mods. So it’s no wonder people are leaving.

Same here, except 64GB of RAM, I can’t even remember how much that cost 4 years ago but I’m afraid to check the receipt at this point.

Ollama + Mistral models is pretty open. All the code and weights are open with a permissible licenses.

Isn’t servo what FF uses for rendering?

It’d be nice if it integrated with my local ollama instance and let me pick which models I wanted to use on the fly with whatever part of the page I want.

I agree… that was the last update I did too and I like the split pulldown. That was before the 8.0 update, I haven’t noticed anything majorly different with 8.0 so far though.

Supposedly the new Samsung “OneUI 8” upgrade tries to streamline notifications and make them less annoying or attention grabbing. I just upgraded so I’m curious what it’ll be like but according to articles the entire goal of version 8 was to make the device less noisy to the user in general.

Fair point… it’s a very conservative floor number though lol. Doing some heavy lifting on the wording.

I figured the % would be significantly higher, like 40% at this rate.

I would say it’s more like 1000 times more energy. Trillions of matrix math computations for a handful of tokens at max speed and CPU/GPU usage, compared to a 10 millisecond database query (or in wiki’s case, probably mostly just easy direct edge node cache with no processing involved.)
- Comment on Does anyone else notice an up tick in hostility on Lemmy lately? 3 months ago:
This is the issue I’ve seen everywhere. Military grade TDS. Even if you want to chat about your love for onions in an onion-based community, someone will probably talk about how orange man destroyed onion farmland and is a fascist. I don’t think there’s a way to avoid the constant repetitive rage seeping into everything.
- Comment on Does anyone else notice an up tick in hostility on Lemmy lately? 3 months ago:
Yes. I’ve also noticed if you say something mods don’t like they will remove your comments. This place is more of the same with censorship… in terms of removing opposing ideas.
- Comment on Mods react as Reddit kicks some of them out again: “This will break the site” 4 months ago:
The problem with that is that it’s so locked down now you need an account of X age with Y karma, so the majority of the site isn’t something you can participate in. And I get it, lots of spam accounts and whatnot, but still shitty that they’re a hair trigger away from destroying years worth of built up karma over nothing.
- Comment on Mods react as Reddit kicks some of them out again: “This will break the site” 4 months ago:
I only got a warning, they said if I did it again I could face a site-wide ban though. Pretty disturbing that they’re tracking upvotes to a post… they said I also upvoted a Luigi comment… but in both cases, they wouldn’t tell me specifically which post or comment triggered it.

It’s interesting that tens of millions of people know the truth of him being a radical far-left homicidal maniac, but the few thousand people here continue to circlejerk over lies. I really expected better from lemmy. Oh well, it is what it is.

Soon after Charlie Kirk’s assassination, some on the political left quickly spread a baseless theory that the conservative podcaster was killed by a follower of the ultra-right-wing group called Groypers.
Authorities told Axios they believe Robinson’s romantic relationship with his transgender roommate could be key to determining a motive for Kirk’s killing, and that Robinson believed that the conservative was spreading transphobic hate.
Robinson “wasn’t too fond of Trump or Charlie [Kirk],” a former coworker of his told CNN.
Reality check: As noted by Time Magazine, those who have covered Fuentes downplayed connections between Robinson and the movement.
I don’t think reality is welcome on Lemmy at this point.

Ironically you’re going to be the one there instead of him. Sweet irony.

All the comments in this thread have made me lose hope for society, but all the people cheering it on will reap what they sow.
- Comment on We need to stop pretending AI is intelligent 6 months ago:
The human brain contains roughly 86 billion neurons, while ChatGPT, a large language model, has 175 billion parameters (often referred to as “artificial neurons” in the context of neural networks). While ChatGPT has more “neurons” in this sense, it’s important to note that these are not the same as biological neurons, and the comparison is not straightforward.
86 billion neurons in the human brain isn’t that much compared to some of the larger 1.7 trillion neuron neural networks though.

The 102GB includes pictures then? That’s insane.
- Comment on After they kill Wikipedia history will be AI hallucinations. 8 months ago:
As of 2025, the English Wikipedia has 63,040,591 pages. The current text content in all its pages is about 156 GB in size. When counting all the revisions in histories, the size is 26,455 GB (26 TB).
I’m sure many people have already archived this at the least.

I see two new features that look fantastic, but the rest of the UI seems likely unchanged. I’ll definitely give it a shot though.

- Comment on List of Alternatives to Adobe Programs 8 months ago:
GIMP is unfortunately not a good competitor, the UX/UI is atrocious, and that’s after spending 25 years using it now… I switched to Krita for most things at this point. GIMP needs some sort of revamp.

Collection of personal data is arguably worth money to them though, for advertising and whatever else they’re doing.

Does Intel make its main CPUs in China?
Looked it up and found this info at least:
Key US Locations:
Arizona (Fab 52 and 62), New Mexico (Fab 9 and 11x), and Oregon (Hillsboro) are major Intel manufacturing hubs in the US, with the new Fab 42 and 32 also being part of a larger campus in Arizona. Ohio is also a major site with construction well underway for two new leading-edge chip factories.
Global Footprint:
Intel also has manufacturing facilities in locations like Israel (Jerusalem, Kiryat Gat) and Ireland (Leixlip).
Expansion and Future:
Intel is actively expanding its global network with new fabs in Ohio, Germany, and other locations, according to Intel Newsroom and plans to make the German fab one of the most advanced in the world.

I just used that for export, but I have yet to try import on it. But I’m assuming it works well, it has good reviews as far as I remember.
