kinda unrelated but recent nvidia linux drivers are already open source. i’d love to see the older drivers be “open sourced” too because my ancient gpus aren’t supported by open-gpu-kernel-module thing tho

When a single salary could comfortably support a whole family, people had more time
was there really time like that tho? just sounds like rose tinted glasses tbh. maybe because i’m not US based but people here were poor af back then and things got much better these days.


tbh yeah. i don’t use ai but art stuff looks fun and i’d like to make things but i suck at it.


most likely configuration issue on the instance that hosts the image.


i haven’t bought new hardwares for a long time. it’s mostly all older used items, sometimes even straight out of garbage bin.
the newest machine i have is from 2021.


debian. friendly and large community, no weird antifeatures like ubuntu


it’s sort of mixed.
overall i hate how it’s being made, advertised, brainwashing people, used for fake images/propaganda, reducing signal to noise ratio with meaningless slop, environmental concerns etc.
OTOH there’s some genuinely great things (imo) being made because of it. like people making drivers for long obsolete hardwares, reverse engineering proprietary blobs. maybe it isn’t something very advanced technically but it’s still something i find very interesting. most recently i saw someone got iOS 7 running on a HTC HD2 (leo), 17 years after that phone first released.
i still don’t use llms yet other than short testing back a few years ago, but i might start using them soon. i really want to get volte working on my phone, i don’t know how to reverse engineer the vendor’s IMS implementation, and i’ve seen people with not much knowledge get it working on their phones with llm help.
maybe i’m justifying immoral things… idk. something to think about.


free rockets actually sounds very cool (whether its free as in beer or freedom)
that’s a downgrade from m1 pro
never get L or E series, only get T/P/X series
panasonic letsnote (not the toughbook) is actually also quite decent. but it’s hard to get unless you’re in japan


i actually don’t even use microg, there’s no problem at all. you don’t get push messages, and some apps might not run tho i havent encountered any yet. (i don’t run banking, drm, anything like that)




upstream linux does accept AI “assisted” patches. if this gets properly mainlined, why wouldn’t it run Nura?


i agree.
in that case, wouldn’t it be similar ethically if people use these models on their own machine for personal use?


/p/ (photography), /g/ (computer)
i used a filter in 4chanx to hide some words i find offending. it’s true there’s many hateful/misogynistic/racist people there, but there were also many interesting stuff. they have a very minimal moderation policy, i’m not sure if it’s a good thing.
haven’t went there much lately though.


do you consider “piracy” like zlibrary and annas archive unethical?


i think i did this long time ago with WSL. there was some way to mount a physical disk’s filesystem.
play phone games (bejeweled/parking lot…) or read books/manga/wikipedia
is it? i haven’t seen post quantum cryptography (?) alert when connecting to some machines in openssh until pretty recently, i assumed there’s been steady development in that area
