Expensive heating but free computation then!

I don't know about pcbs but i gave chat gpt a picture of my window to help design a mesh screen frame to hold the feline hostage in, and it gave a fairly convincing impression of understanding what was going on, although at one point i

I liked the suggestion to create a second partition at the start - I hadn't thought of it myself and just gave up on the first 2gb.

Nah, AIs will cheat their way through anything you let them do. If skipping half the drive will let it get that sweet RL reward, it will do it. Chat gpt came up with it: https://chatgpt.com/share/6a9ae2c9-1910-83ed-9591

Or you build bunkers and build robots to keep the riffraff out. Shock collars on the guards' necks.

I had a 600MHz/64MB/9GB laptop that came with Windows mistake edition. I managed to survive first year of uni on it by switching to Vector Linux, which was really fast compared to Windows. (Of course, it had issues playing sound f

I have an auto "checkout" every month and I download my data. I don't know if it's readable, I haven't checked, but it feels comforting. My email is also just a private name@domain that forwards to my Gmail. If I ev

It's actually why I will never use any of Google's paid services like compute or LLMs or storage. I will not risk my access to important services. "Free" Gmail and search is all I will use.

I bet they had to implement that manually to make it look like they failed too!

What solution do you use that syncs/backs up while the device is turned off? IME stuff?

by exe34 14d ago
I have Syncthing on my android phone, my laptop and my always-on nuc at home. There's a folder where I keep anything I want to backup.

What if they knew what they were voting for?

We're not living in idiocracy yet. They knew they were stupid and gave control to the new guy. We're in the prequel, and we're still getting started.

Amazing! Thanks for explaining!

I've had this issue a few times. Took it apart and soaked/scrubbed anything without a pcb or wires coming out of it, and it worked fine after. Eventually the filter on the motor crumbled into dust (not suitable for picking up the

Any ideas if it keeps continuity - when you turn around, is the invented chair still there, or does everything shift like in a dream?

It's useful to you. I'd say take the win and let the haters quibble. I'm good enough at coding that I can use it as part of my day job, but I hate coding for the sake of coding. For me coding is a tool for solving problems, a

Sounds like you just don't like the phrase 'higher level'. To most people this is synonymous to 'powerful abstractions' and 'more ergonomic abstractions' in the sense that they allow us to think "at a

It didn't sound very convincing. It doesn't really prove anything other than the author signed the report. Unless the auditing is running from a secure enclave/core that the user has no access to, it can't do what is cla

Where can I see the list of everybody they stole IP from? Just saying "that guy stole it for me" isn't really giving credit to the real owners/creators.

I'm assuming your gotcha is going to be "but that's not vibe-coding", but in case you're sincere, you might not have realised this yet: there's a whole range between writing every line by yourself and letting t

Does Microsoft windows give credits to every developer who ever worked on it?

If anthropic believes in giving credit, why not give credit to all the content they stole?

It's mind blowing for me whenever the hardware abstraction leaks like this. You (ie Firefox) had to call the instructions in a specific order to cause the hardware to fail.
