Sometimes i use ai to analyze spreadsheet data for me and spit out an excel sheet with the answers. It says “thinking” for like 10 mins, and i can just imagine some GPUs on fire in a datacenter somewhere…

Sure, but why do meta/goog/MS need to be there? Are they opening up research to each other?

I dont really understand their business model.
Hosting these huge model files. Why cant facebook/goog/m$ just do that on their own?
How did these massive ai giants end up relying on huggingface for everything?

There’s a bit in the simspons where arsonists burn down a lab and a robot runs out of the building screaming “why??? Why was i programmed to feel pain?”

Yeah, just like OP, i just wanted to go to school, explore the castle, and skip class once on a while
Instead, a lot of the game is just running around murdering goblins. And my character is a total psycho… Just gleefully wiping people out with UNFORGIVABLE CURSES, WTF… using a curse is enough to land you in azkaban. Yet my character is just openly firing these curses off with impunity and the game seemingly doesnt give you any feedback that this is wrong, nor any deterrents. (Maybe there are some consequences later?? I put the game down for a while because the constant combat was too much for me)
Also, kidnapping animals, and putting them in your zoo so that you can harvest magical materials from them. How is that any better than the poachers???
Kids are going to have a warped sense of morality after playing this game

- Comment on 'End of 10' to Windows 10 Users: The Environment Wants You to Use Linux 1 month ago:
I’ve been full time linux since 2017, i think (it was a long time ago)
Honestly, linux gaming with steam/proton has been really good for a LONG time. Like even “AAA” games like RDR2 have been working well whenever i buy them (not on release day, but maybe a year after)
In 2025, there’s really no reason not to go linux unless you play some very specific game that absolutely doesnt work on linux
- Comment on Nextcloud cries foul over Google Play Store app rejection 1 month ago:
What if fdroid goes rogue or gets hacked?
I’m an fdroid user, but i often wonder if it is safer than google play store
Likelihood of google getting hacked/rogue is much lower than a small, community run volunteer project

“If dev goes rougue”
Isnt that a risk for all app stores?

I have lots of devices on linux and they all play nice together

They had two things going for them… Decent linux support and non-shitty DRM ink/toner
- Comment on How do you keep track of vulnerabilities? 3 months ago:
I think the problem is that a lot of people are just running flatpaks and dockers which might not be getting timely updates.
I try to stick to debian packages for everything as much as possible for this reason.

- Comment on MSI and ASUS hike GeForce RTX 50 series prices in official stores, now up to $3,409 for RTX 5090 4 months ago:
Pure greed. TSMC built tons of capacity since the pandemic, RAM makers have cut back production because of low prices.
There is tons of capacity out there to make more graphics cards, even including all the big data centers using them for AI. but i guess its more profitable to sell a small number of cards to rich gamers and AI companies

Omg… I have the EXACT same goal. Qnap and make a better offsite backup process… Been procrastinating for years now
I’m thinking a diy NAS running openmediavault.
Currently doing encrypted backups to google storage archive tier. Very cheap to store, expensive to retrieve.
Thinking maybe i can set up a small box at a family members house for nightly backups

Thats why i said client side view. Each servers community doesnt know i’m viewing 3 communities together on my phone and it doesnt affect them
- Comment on Niche Communities won't be able to reach their true potential until lemmy adds a sort that takes engagement into account. 7 months ago:
The biggest problem with lemmy for me is the multiple “duplicate” communities.
There should be a feature to combine them at the client level. So the 3 different “privacy” communities could just be viewed as one on my lemmy client
