In my experience, it has not generated results in real time. I’ve either gotten the exact same response, or a prompt asking “would you like to generate an AI response to your search?”
So it seems like, and would make sense, that in a given time period they only generate a response once per given search, and reuse that response in the future, since that’s far more efficient
Yeah, I feel like the article would be more persuasive if they gave any examples of what research they are doing which requires these specific old games.
Huh… Will this message then get re-ingested by chatgpt? Did it just poison itself?
I disagree with one of their points
Network firewalls can also be configured to deny inbound and outbound traffic to and from the physical interface. This remedy is problematic for two reasons: (1) a VPN user connecting to an untrusted network has no ability to control the firewall and (2) it opens the same side channel present with the Linux mitigation.
Sure, they can’t control the network firewall, but why would you do that when you can change your local firewall? Set an iptables rule to drop all traffic going out the physical interface that isn’t destined for the VPN server. I’m 70% sure some vpn clients do this automatically.
For your specific case, sure, but for that quote, I haven’t had those issues in years. I’m also running Mint, but on a desktop and have had zero issues. Mouse “just works,” extra monitors “just work,” and (most surprisingly to me), printer “just works,” games on Steam “just work” with all they’ve done with Proton. I switched to Google docs a long time ago, so at least for me the Office thing isn’t relevant. It natively supports discord, my password manager, Spotify, everything I’ve wanted. I switched my wife’s Mac to it years ago since it had gotten slow from bloat, and she’s been just fine despite not being very tech literate.

My thought was that it was going to be just about WiFi internal to the house and it was an issue with interference from neighbors (which then gets shut out in the rain).
Just wanted to plug in case you weren’t already aware, isthereanydeal is a pretty great one stop shop for looking for sales across a ton of storefronts. Pretty easy to import a steam wishlist to it as well.
No, I didn’t read the entirety of the comments you’ve made, I read your comment and the one you replied to. As a general rule, I (and I’d assume most people) read down a thread before replying, and don’t first look through all of everyone’s comment histories
Oh shit, I thought you had forgotten a “/s” at the end, but reading your other comments this is actually what you believe and how you talk. So… yeah, I’m not going to take someone who cites “people who understand things really well” as a source at face value.
I get the sentiment, but don’t really agree. Humans’ inputs are also from what already exists, and music is generally inspired from other music which is why “genres” even exist. AI’s not there yet, but the statement “real creativity comes solely from humans” Needs Citation. Humans are a bunch of chemical reactions and firing synapses, nothing out of the realm of the possible for a computer.
I’m not sure I agree with the power usage argument. Even for streaming services, all the ones I’m familiar with will cache songs you listen to frequently on your device (which they’re financially incentivized to do to reduce bandwidth) and isn’t consuming any more power than buy-once-own-forever. And if you’re comparing to physical media I’d assume it is far better, since you’re saving all the energy to acquire materials to create the media, write to it, package it, and ship it.
I mean, it’s hard to steer me away from regular old stupidity and incompetence. I’d like to understand the logic for why he would intentionally run his $44 billion investment into the ground.
I thought they jumped to it because ancient, poorly made software would check for Windows 9* to cover 95 and 98, and could now potentially catch windows 9 as well
You say it like there’s some hypocrisy going on. Yes, I donate money to charity, no, I don’t leave all my money on my porch. Hot take: people should be allowed to sell their creations.
I was just about to post this. I’d used it for the occasional one-off of a game I’m interested in and only recently learned I can sync my wishlist with it.
I was confused at first, I thought it was trying to say whether the driver defaults to the Nvidia proprietary, and I thought that was already the case
