I mean I’m okay with that.

Has the SCOTUS saying something is illegal stop him? He just does it anyway.

“Well good news folks, problem solved. You need to be a person to be a pedophile and Grok isn’t a person. Therefore Grok can’t be found liable for anything it does. Therefore it’s safe and won’t risk me being litigated. Therefore it’s safe as is for kids. I don’t know why everyone got so upset.” Says Elon Musk. /S but also not/s.

You say /s but it is absolutely a not /s. If this goes to the SCOUS that’ll absolutely be their decision.

Do you have a SteamDeck OLED? Maybe try BG again, for a lot of this year I had problems with it too mostly around HDR. Then I tried again this fall after a substantial bug fix and it ran great. Just a little stuttering loading assets once in a while.

Not to mention invisible when it does it’s job right. When public health is supported people don’t get sick, epidemics don’t happen, things look good. So some genius gets it in their head to cut public health funding. Why waste money on public health when people aren’t sick. Then public health gets cut, people get sick, people blame the health care industry which isn’t the same as public health. That happenes until public health gets a little more support, and people stop getting sick, rinse any memory of the last time, and repeat.

Unfortunately those are the most expensive parts right now because they both require memory chips. Perhaps consider buying used, might be tough to find DDR5 DIMMs but used GPUs are plentiful.

That’s a good question, followed by a lot of bad assumptions.

Aye but where be it the Captain’s are getting these Webrips be the question. Thar answer be the streaming services me mate’ee. It be their content pirates be plunderin’.

Mine did… Although it’s completely unrelated to AWS.

Some plastics cause cancer, others seem to be completely ignored by biological processes. Plastics range from cellophane which is basically just cellulose fibers chained together to Teflon which is basically entirely man made. It all depends, but generally speaking, plastic in the microwave is bad.

The capital comes from the profits from other markets. Which comes from exploiting workers. The original investment didn’t just spontaneously expose itself, people chose to flow money into it. They’ll pay for the next bubble with the profits C-suit executives stole from their workers and the little guy. They will take what should have been yours and bet it away on some fever dream that was doomed to fail from the beginning. All in the hopes that they might make their wealth get more outrageously excessive before this bubble bursts and they try again on the next.

What was left after the cryptocurrency crash? A whole lot of GPUs that got repurposed for AI. They’ll just get repurposed for whatever extremely computationally intensive thing some computer engineer comes up with. Until that bubble bursts, rinse and repeat. What’s happening is project managers are selling the next big thing to make a lot of capital really quickly to a board of directors.

To piggy back off of Arcayne’s comment

I’d recommend setting your sights on the 3-2-1 rule. 3 copies of your data, 2 different mediums, 1 off-site. Hetzner Storage Box is a good cheap offsite option.

I don’t backup everything to a 3-2-1. I at least have everything on a 2-1 backup scheme. Two copies, one offline. My personal photos and videos are on a proper 3-2-1. I can redownload my movies and music. I can’t retake pictures from my childhood. It saves a lot of money doing it that way. My personal media is less than 1 TB, whereas my whole collection is many TB and would be prohibitively expensive to 3-2-1.

Look into:

Talescale for an easy but limited option.

Wireguard with a dynamic DNS service for something that provides more flexibility with a little set up.

Don’t open a publicly facing port unless it’s for an encrypted tunnel. If you don’t want to open your computer to a lot of threats. Always use an encrypted tunnel when opening something to the Internet.

I’ve had my posts swamped by downvotes at least once by saying “I not pro-Palestine, I’m pro-People” as if I have to favor factions rather than, you know, being against the victimization of people who did nothing to deserve it quite independently of whatever label they’re tagged with.

I think part of the reason being pro-people makes others angry is because everyone is so polarized politically. A lot more people than usual are approaching politics expecting that you’re either supporting my ideals or not supporting them. Which may as well be opposing them and opposing ‘our’ ideals is your moral failing. Nuance is gone, the political center is gone. At least until there are some serious changes.

Here’s an AI summary of your distain for AI:

I’ll begin saying this when people ask why I want “dumb” machines.

AI summaries lack quality, ads distract drivers, you want a washing machine without ads, you don’t want your TV to watch you, you want machines to be submissive.

How did I do?

Just because Wikipedia offers a list of references doesn’t mean that those references reflect what knowledge is actually out there. Wikipedia is trying to be academically rigorous without any of the real work. A big part of doing academic research is reading articles and studies that are wrong or which prove the null hypothesis. That’s why we need experts and not just an AI to regurgitate information. Wikipedia is useful if people understand it’s limitations, I think a lot of people don’t though.
