- Comment on Windows Is Adding AI Agents That Can Change Your Settings 4 days ago:
So one is a bug, and another is a feature I actually use everyday. Did you mean the selection prevents you from quickly changing between recent windows? I don’t remember it actually slowing down my switching at all.

In what way?
- Comment on Windows Is Adding AI Agents That Can Change Your Settings 5 days ago:
Nah, did you forget how hidden and inconsistent some of the setting location was in control panel? The windows 11 settings app may have brought some new issues to the table, but ease of finding settings is not it.
If I wasn’t already familiar with how the control panel is laid out, I wouldn’t have any idea how to find most of what I used to do on it. Also, you can only set static IP per adapter in control panel, not for each WiFi connection. That was stupid.

Please explain what goalpost did I move?

Ah, so you can’t? The scale of the theft is so big that you can’t even list them out, is it?

Can you list out this sheer scale of theft that Nintendo is suing Pocketpair for.
- Comment on Android’s next big feature turns your phone into a desktop 1 week ago:
It’s great that we’re losing this feature in OneUI 7. Makes me never want to buy another Samsung phone ever again.
- Comment on Android’s next big feature turns your phone into a desktop 1 week ago:
OneUI 7 actually downgrades the Dex experience by removing the feature to launch it in Windows.
- Comment on Android’s next big feature turns your phone into a desktop 1 week ago:
I really like using Dex on my work laptop so I don’t have to mess with logging into personal accounts on them. Too bad Samsung is removing this specific version of Dex in One UI 7.

While I do agree with the sentiment, I don’t agree that this qualifies as weird.
- Comment on That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharing 1 week ago:
So you don’t have an actual argument and can only say it’s wrong?
- Comment on That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharing 1 week ago:
It’s not advisable to expose Jellyfin to the internet. Telling people they don’t need VPN means you are encouraging them to expose it to the internet.
- Comment on That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharing 1 week ago:
You don’t technically need it on Plex. They do have a relay feature.

- Comment on The Fairphone 5 price has been dropped to €499. The phone is designed to be the most advanced environmentally friendly smartphone. 4 weeks ago:
Thanks for the answer. How does it compare against other Android forks in terms of security update speed?
Also, isn’t Fairphone once also criticised for falling behind on Android security updates or was I misremembering this?

Gamers are part of the group spreading the DEI misinformation, so yes, they can be pretty stupid.
- Comment on Anthropic has developed an AI 'brain scanner' to understand how LLMs work and it turns out the reason why chatbots are terrible at simple math and hallucinate is weirder than you thought 5 weeks ago:
But the comment I replied to didn’t just deny the confirmation that AI is thinking, it also denied that AI “thinks” at all. That puts him in a position of making an unproven claim. In fact, he is directly making that claim, while the article he is denying only alludes to saying that LLM “thinks” like a human. That makes his unproven claim even more egregious than the article’s.

I wasn’t calling it thinking. I’m saying people claiming it’s not is just jumping the gun. It’s also funny you’re simply claiming I am pro AI without needing any proof. This is what I meant when I said people who are anti-AI should strive to be better than the AI they criticise. Acting based on non-facts makes you no better than AI with their hallucinations.
Its also funny that you’re calling me out when I’m just mirroring what the other guy is doing to make a point. He’s acting like his is the correct opinion, yet you only calling me out because the guy is on your side of the argument. That’s simply a bad faith argument on your part.

Anybody who claims they don’t “think” before we even figure out completely how they work and even how human thoughts work are just spreading anti-AI sentiment beyond what is considered logical.
You should become a better example than an AI by only arguing based on facts rather than things you hallucinate if you want to prove your own position on this matter.
- Comment on In Warning Sign for Hollywood, Younger Consumers Are Choosing Creator Content Over Premium TV and Movies: Social Platforms are Becoming a Dominant Force in Media and Entertainment. 1 month ago:
That’s another result of people not having enough money to be experimental with their movie choice. If movies are too expensive for you to go regularly, of course most people would choose those that they know are gonna be safe for them to enjoy instead of giving unknown original movies a try.

And so does the internal surface of a diamond.
- Comment on idijt 2 months ago:
By that logic, glass mirrors also work by refraction, because it refracts out of the glass before it reaches your eye.
- Comment on idijt 2 months ago:
Isn’t it caused by internal reflection? That, by definition, is what happens when the light doesn’t refract out of the diamond.
- Comment on idijt 2 months ago:
But isn’t their shine mostly due to the internal reflection rather than external refraction? That’s why the gems are cut angularly, to help with the internal reflection.

Tell me where in this thread are anyone expecting privacy from any online LLM service, or anyone saying encrypted traffic guarantees privacy?
