Echo Dot

They do. But a lot of displays don’t support DP so HDMI is there for them. If you have a capable TV, then there is no issue.

Zuckerberg just wants to build his own universe where he’s in charge of everything and everything costs money and there no taxes.

You can bet there were pitching ideas such as paying people with game money.

A lot of those plans very much in the “assume a spherical chicken in a vacuum” territory. They only work on paper, and tend to assume things like criminal gangs are randomly just sort of going to get out of the way and not interfere. Also there are no corrupt government officials, and the people you are trying to help actually recognise that, and respond positively.

It’s got nothing to do with artificial intelligence, the writer of the article is just an idiot.

What quantum mechanical problem would an LLM be able to assist with? We don’t understand quantum mechanics all that well so how would an AI trained on a data be any better? Truly stupid article.

So you can’t actually solve problems. You can just look up previously solved problems.

What a clever idea to write the results of an experiment down.

I really want to see a Dreamcast in a hermetically sealed bag. I will never get to of course because the sort of people who put dreamcasts in hermetically sealed bags are not the sort of people whose homes you want to go to.

The promise of “fiber to the home” is still mostly unrealized

Really? The US is really unsophisticated in certain key areas that you wouldn’t expect.

Because they don’t have a clue how technology actually works. I have genuinely heard people claim that AI should run on Asimovs laws of robotics, even though not only would they not work in the real world, they don’t even work in the books. Zero common sense.

Pretty sure it’s also going to tell people to alt f4 as well.

It reminds me of that guy that gave an AI instructions in all caps, as if that was some sort of safeguard. The problem isn’t the artificial intelligence it’s the idiot biological that has decided to ride around without safety wheels.

This article is so stupid rmdir isn’t some magical military grade file eraser. It literally just flags the disc space as available, that’s it. Claiming these files are unrecoverable is like claiming that you have snapped someone out of existence, when you just delete them from your contacts.

The user in question was using AI to delete files, it probably took them longer to ask the AI to do it than it would have done for them to have just gone into the final browser and deleted them themselves, so they probably don’t know how to use data recovery software, that’s all.

I also find it intriguing that rather than using the AI’s advice and stop using the drive so they don’t overwrite data they decided that the best course of action would be to make a YouTube video about it. Which is probably a massive file and is probably overwritten previously recoverable data.

What a pillock.

We used to have dell workstations at work and they were terrible. At one point we wanted to remove the heat sink on one of the systems because it was full of dust and was overheating, doing this was made virtually impossible by the placement of the screws. I assume Dell made the computer they had access to transdimensional screwdriver that can phase through matter.

Just wrap your car in tinfoil. Bonus is that it stops the government from reading you mind while inside.

Just got a dishwasher and it doesn’t even have an app. How can that be?

Why not do cars need internet access in order to start?

I understand having auxiliary services the network connected but surely the failure mode should just be an error on the screen but otherwise the car should still function. It’s not like operating without internet access is dangerous or anything.

Also, why don’t we just do that, cut Russias internet access, it seems like it would cause utter chaos.

If you’re looking at a website designed at any point in the last 10 years it will be able to adapt the layout. Fixed layout were a relic of the past even when I was working in the industry 15 years ago.

It’s really not. The screen is 4k OLED. It’s a perfect display. The tech had one tiny downside when it first launched which wasn’t the crease was relatively noticeable, that’s a long since fixed issue.

The only people who think folding phones are a gimmick are people who have never had them. Or and apple users who want one but can’t get over the fact that Apple doesn’t make them.

Who wouldn’t want a phone that can change size on demand. How is that not a useful feature? Sci-fi is full of transparent screens which are objectively terrible, but folding is useful.

People at work send me bug reports by email, teams chat, taking to me (the worst because I forgot about them instantly) and the crappy corporate social network thing that Microsoft pushed on us. Very occasionally they will use the actual ticketing system, but only by accident.

I don’t think github has billions of users.

Yeah but what does the corporate world do when Microsoft implodes and releases “Windows 12 agentic AI” the operating system, co developed between AI and athletic employees?
