That's absolutely not my idea of good governance, playing with oil prices is extremely dangerous considering that economy is strongly tied to them. Starting a useless war is crazy in the first place. But it is more money in America (fo

Less oil on the market meaning higher fuel prices with the US being a net exporter. Not sure that was the plan but it looks like a benefit.

The end state of genAI could as well be a few billionaires being their enterprise and everybody else being unemployed or working at the factory. Robots are not there yet (far from it) and someone needs to build and maintain the thing as wel

Yes you are: the article says that the permission must be granted in general by authorities (I guess no war and not active military) and no penalties for breaching it.

As someone mostly outside of the vibe coding stuff, I can see the benefit in having both the model and the author information. Model information for traceability and possibly future analysis/statistics, and author to know who is taking

People that don't want to use Apple products are not forced to do so. They can use Android (which has alternative stores, at least for the time being). Though I guess almost everyone logs in anyaway. Generally both major OS have good s

Once you get NREs set up you don't need a constant uninterrupted supply of replacements as fossil fuels do (we burn them after all). We'd need replacements as old infrastructure ages out but it seems much easier to wait out a supp

As far as I remember it was working well in 7 and 8 (deterministic and shows programs that you expect it to show). From 10 it started behaving erratically (same time it got binged but maybe unrelated).

LTSC cannot be bought as a regular customer unfortunately. Legally, regular customers are only allowed to use the enshittified version.

French person here: there absolutely is a difference, at least in the "heard on TV" accent. Could you be talking about the southern accent where maybe those sound similar? A pet theory of mine is that people confusing "est&q

I dream of having a Firefox extension / feature that can check locally for LLM-generated text and highlight it automatically. Would likely have an immense resource usage, but worth it.

It votes on all laws so it has a strong power to stop bullshit. I fail to see how the amount of voters would remove that right. The power stands with the people who actually get out to vote.

Anecdotal evidence: when using X11 years ago I could never avoid screen tearing despite trying various options, except with one option that seemed to replace it with random frame drops. (to be fair that's probably related to my GPU, wh

The article talks of other menu entries but the screenshot of the menu literally shows the "Remove AI chatbot" option, why not just click that instead of hunting for it in about:config?

I remember having some microwave oven that started rotating if I opened the door partially at just the right angle. Hopefully does not mean the magnetron was actually running.

Not sure how reliable is gptzero, but it says 90% AI for the first paragraph. (I like to do some sanity check before wasting my time). Would be nice to have some browser extension automatically detecting likely AI output using a local model

Combined with LSP I find it to be quite a good IDE too. Handles extremely large source trees quite well.

For compilers: the C++ standard. For OSes: POSIX, or the MSDN documentation for Windows. Compiler bugs and OS bugs are extremely rare so we can rely on them to follow their spec. AI bugs are very much expected when the "spec" (the

> A $60 difference Oh, the difference in dollar is less than I expected. And you're right, after checking, the difference in price in the USA is $60 ($139 Home and $199 Pro). In France, Windows 11 Home is 145€ compared to 259€ for W

Considering Windows's history with user consent I would be worried about the keys eventually being uploaded without asking the user and without linking online accounts. Probably not now but not something unimaginable in some future. Ho
