To be thorough, you should check your domain names for any characters that can be changed by a single bit flip. It probably will not look right as far as spelling, but the idea is that eventually something like a cosmic ray will pass throug

I have no proof, but this just figures. It's entirely plausible that google gave some heavy-duty major dark money campaign donations and have used the return on their investment to avoid being broken up. Maybe I'm just cynical and

I run all my own stuff local-first, but I am also a systems and networking engineer and understand all of the concepts so I can build it properly. It takes time, and the willingness to do so. If you don't already have the knowledge to

What scares me is AI running in a humanoid robot. Maybe it's time to listen to Isaac Asimov and implement the three laws of robotics. Maybe it's past time.

The government isn't big brother, they just let mega corps do all of the spying via "ads" and then just buy your data from a data broker to whom you let have all of your personal information for game on your phone that gives

The CEO of a company that spies on people, and now detects signals from your phone to connect the car to a driver, got scared and had Google blur his house. That is the height of hypocrisy. His home address is also public information, avail

Flock CEO should take a hint. If his product is being actively attacked and destroyed, he is lucky it's only the cameras. At least so far. One guy was already arrested, but the jury refused to convict him. If I were a juror on a case i

I only run local models and I don't give them access to much externally. I don't do anything serious with it, but it comes in handy and I know that they can do so much more. I'm on a meager RTX 3060 12GB and a GTX 1660 Ti wit

People do not understand what the reality of large portions of land that are concentrated on the coasts are going to underwater sooner than anyone probably thinks. Exxon knew in the 70s, they wrote reports about it, that's all known an

I was referring specifically to the US Senate "convicting" chump, not a court. That can only happen if he is succuessfully prosecuted by the US House of Representatives. I agree that the courts are not predictable in that way, and

Small business, small team, gets shit done. Large corporation, more meetings about what to do than doing it, power trips, drama, backstabbing, you name it. Keep you head on a swivel at megacorp. I've learned that twice when both startu

No citizen voted for Citizens United. So it's inaccurate to say that we did. Citizens United was a decision by an unelected group of federal judges we call the Supreme Court when a case was brought before them to determine if chump cou

Looks to me like it allows you to resources you wouldn't normally be able to use. CPU, RAM, GPU, VRAM, etc in order to run models that you normally would not be able to due to the models being larger than the amount of vram on the gpu.

Maybe you are right, and it's a scapegoat here. CU was and continues to be a disaster for this country, and I don't think enough attention can be brought to it until it is mitigated.

One I belive has no intention of leaving office, and is trying to prevent the midterm elections from happening. Since the founding of the US, no elections have been delayed, or missed. Not once. Not during WWII, not after 9/11, never.

The US is currently governed by a dictator propped up by an oligarchy that can only do that because of the Citizens United supreme court decision. Until Citizens United is mitigated, and that appears to be starting to happen as states make

Trump knows a lot of dirt on a lot of very powerful people, and he likely has dementia. One thing about dementia is that it can cause people to say things they normally would not say. That's a huge risk to those that are afraid he&#x27

not every time. there are people in jail/prison due to the times that the DOJ does not get laughed out of court. I think someone accused of being "antifa" got 100 years to make an example. I don't have the article to sit

Great, so instead of people cutting down flock camera aluminum poles, they will be shooting at flock drones. Not that I'm against that, but you, safety first.

I built something similar to the boxfan and 4 air filters when I'm doing woodworking, especially sanding. They work pretty well for that if you are on a budget.

This part: "Be kind. Don't be snarky. Converse curiously; don't cross-examine. Edit out swipes. Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive, not less, as a topic gets more divisive."
