When he dies they are going to think it was faked and will be talking about Trump sightings 50 years from now the way loonies talk about Elvis sightings.
Nevermind that it would mean Trump would be 130 years old, reality isn’t the world they live in.


I’m generally pretty optimistic about the outlook here.
Easy to do so when you’re not the one being shot in the face, idiot.


Windows officially is more complicated and needs more jumping through hoops to use than fucking Linux.
Literally having to give up and resort to, not a Powershell terminal mind you, but the traditional command prompt.
Microsoft, fix your fucking shit god.


A wag of the finger and furrowed brows!


Humans have the ability to actually think.
That’s a stretch for an inordinate number of humans, sadly.


I still think it’s funny that he went from working at Valve as their Economist in residence studying digital markets to being the finance minister of Greece. I think the Valve job was more prestigious, especially since the rest of the EU was committed to fucking over Greece at the time.


To be fair, you can’t control what humans optimize what you’re trying to teach them either. A lot of times they learn the opposite of what you’re trying to teach them. I’ve said it before but all they managed to do with LLMs is make a computer that’s just as unreliable (if not moreso) than your below-average human.


you’ll give up your PC to rent one from the cloud



Not just actors but one of their best writers.
He is proof that even right wing dipshits can be funny.

However, when testing the models in a set of scenarios that the authors said were “representative” of real uses of ChatGPT, the intervention appeared less effective, only reducing deception rates by a factor of two. “We do not yet fully understand why a larger reduction was not observed,” wrote the researchers.
Translation: “We have no idea what the fuck we’re doing or how any of this shit actually works lol. Also we might be the ones scheming since we have vested interest in making these models sound more advanced than they actually are.”


Bezos is so out of touch it is stupid.
Is he out of touch or has he just recognized that 50% of the economic activity is already from the top 10% of the population?
I get the feeling the wealthy have just written off the bottom 90% of society and don’t actually give a flying fuck if anything works for us or not. He knows his core sales will go to people who do have fiber at their doorstep.
Maybe we’re the ones out of touch thinking they plan on having a place for us in this world at all.


I keep getting a 502 bad gateway. Even Lemmy is more stable than this.


They launched it before for influencers to join, and I’m not sure how many did.

In 2019, Gates characterized his relationship with Epstein as a ‘huge mistake’.
Probably because it was the final straw for his wife Melinda, and Gates wasn’t happy how much she would take in the divorce. Considering he was a serial philanderer and often used his position at Microsoft as a way to meet women (including Melinda!), it’s not like he respected that marriage or his wife very much, so it can’t be that he’s sad about losing her or something, so my bet is on sad he was going to lose a lot of wealth over his Epstein connections.
Massgrave doesn’t work for Office I’m pretty sure.


Gave up on Windows fully on my desktop/laptop over a year ago after running numerous Linux servers for years (starting with a Raspberry Pi in 2016). I used to dual-boot for several years, and now I have a Windows VM I keep around in case I need it for something… but in practice I don’t actually need it for anything and haven’t spun up the Windows VM six months or more.


It’s already here in all but name, which I think is what this article is also implying.
Which is dumb because neofetch, fastfetch, hyfetch, and uwufetch all already exist!
