Shhh! You’ll scare him off!

Yeah… It doesn’t happen often and when it does, it’s usually a driver and/or hw issue that is likely to leak memory and/or hold file descriptors but procs in D (uninterruptible_sleep) state do happen. It’s really obnoxious that murdering them with SIGKILL does nothing.

I kinda envy folks who think that they have enough geopolitical importance for the CIA/NSA/ThreeLetterAgencies to be keeping tabs on them. I mean, it generally comes with a lot of baggage and delusions but, constantly that level of self-esteem and assuredness must be nice (not that I’m super low in my adult life).

Now, influence campaigns? That’s a different animal altogether. There’ve been too many on the modern Internet for too long.

Porque no los dos? Allowing major corps to put even more downward pressure on workers doesn’t help anyone but the rich. LLMs aren’t going to save the world or become sentient.

What is making my excited is the potential to use this for indoor position tracking for placing persistent virtual displays.

Thank you!!!

This isn’t technically correct. CRT, LCD, and OLED displays are generally constantly refreshing the image. There are some niche exceptions like memory-in-pixel displays but they are few and far between. eInk displays are very different in this aspect because the display itself acts as a physical memory of the image because its mechanism of creating an image involves physical changes (pigmented particles moving closer or further away from the visible plane).

Well put. Cats are OBLIGATE carnivores. They do not have anatomy to support extracting necessary nutrition from vegan sources that are available. It IS hypothetically possibly for them to survive and thrive on an engineered food source but, such a thing does not currently exist and the chemical complexity makes it unlikely in the near future.

Was going to say the same thing.

An unwashed ape. Probably an odor only another unwashed ape would love.

My cats smell just fine. The dog on the other hand…

I don’t think it works on cats :(

I suspect that it works better when it is applied after saying “It’s morphin’ time!”.

Good point.

To be honest, this could be an example of where AI could do marginally better. I don’t mean that because of code quality or functionality. I mean it in the sense of MS software getting absolutely fucked by internal competition and stack-ranking fostered during the Balmer years. The APIs are inconsistent and there is a ton of partially implemented stuff that will never be pushed to completion because everyone who worked on it was fired.

An AI might be able to implement things without intentionally sabotaging itself but, because LLMs are in the forefront of what would be used and do not have the capability of intention or understanding context, I’m a bit pessimistic.

But plenty of electricity still needed.

I like Fira Code w/ Nerd Font patch.

Lead! Lead!

I feel ya, possum buddy.

I’m inclined to believe that they’re throwing all prompts and outputs into a db and searching that.
