I don't think that mistrust of tech companies is cynicism, especially not after we have seen them repeatedly prioritize profits over our privacy, including literally selling our privacy on the open market. It's hard for me to imag

This is fun, but TempleOS is fully open sourced, and even has actively maintained forks. https://github.com/Zeal-Operating-System/ZealOS https://github.com/tinkeros/TinkerOS

I would say that I have a very favorable opinion of Meta in terms of how they share their research and open source their software. I would say that I have a very unfavorable opinion of Meta in terms of their commitment to privacy, security,

It's a stupid one too. "GPT" is an OpenAI trademark. Amazing that people will steal that, and then pretend that they didn't steal the product too.

bnnbreaking.com now links to https://bnngpt.com/ , so it sounds like they're hoping to just pivot from fake news company to plagerism company.

This is a strange comment. Economic success and executive pay packages don't disqualify the claim that there is an image problem. If anything, Musk getting a $45B package after a year of failures and layoffs at Tesla is something that

My guess is yes. I have a little MP3 player (HiFi Walker) with similar thickness and hard edges, and I had to find a little silicone sleeve for it because it rubbed a hole in my pocket from walking with it too much.

I don't accept your "just look at them" photo analysis to be any real indicator of the political leanings of the movement, especially not when these people appear to be the few opportunists in the Cupertino area who physicall

It's interesting seeing the attempts to make a phone that only does what you want it to do, and not be a huge distraction. I totally understand the desire for this too, modern phones are a rabbit hole of content, and after enough apps

Think about the "innovation" here. Learning to set up your own cell tower is quite a feat, but how are you going to monetize it? Are you going to start your own cell provider and try to compete with the existing major players? Or

This is such an insidious movement. It has nothing to do with child safety. The ~35 people that showed up here are nothing more than useful idiots for surveillance lobbyists, if not planted there by the lobbyists themselves. The entire &quo

It's important to note that this only means that households that own real estate are seeing their net worth increase. Renters are seeing their bills go up. So landlords are doing great, homeowners get extra paper wealth, and most mille

Dell did something similar to me, but way scummier a decade ago with my Dell XPS L702x. I bought it spec'd down with the intent to upgrade it myself with parts I had a better deal for. It was advertised as having two DIMM slots, and I

This is pretty hilarious, because I am familiar with these systems, and the correct way to bypass the kiosk mode application is to open the little drawer at the bottom of the self check-in station, and hit Alt+F4 on the little keyboard. The

So it seems that you found a database of PNG images associated with stock tickers, and added favicon scraping, and then put it together with the false promise of "high resolution logos", when I get severely mixed results and a lot

Wow, this article is cool, but it loads a lot of shaders the more you scroll down the page, and unless you are on a very powerful computer, your browser might slow to a crawl.

Okay, so they won't open-source their software. Big whoop. Nobody needs that. The Car Thing has already been rooted. It runs Linux. There's a clear path towards a custom firmware: https://oddsolutions.github.io/Spo

Spotify Technology S.A. may be headquartered in Sweden, but all business in the USA is conducted via Spotify USA Inc, which is a US company headquartered in the World Trade Center in New York City. It is completely understandable that someo

This isn't the reason why. Spotify has been a major player in the U.S. music streaming market for a long time. They have their own offices here, and these kinds of decisions are surely made domestically. The reason for this is simply i

This is a neat trick and all, but if you could find the Duo Dock, it has a SCSI port on it to connect a second hard drive.

I think that government assistance should come universally. We should establish a minimum standard of living. Everyone should get food stamps - enough to survive. If you want, you can eat cheap store brand food for free year-round, or you c

It really baffles me that even extremely knowledgeable insiders like this end up buying the AGI hype. LLMs are extremely novel and have lots of groundbreaking applications, but this idea that we are headed directly into fantasy sci-fi A.I.

Amazing that you're demanding evidence when all you can provide is "from what you have seen". How about you provide some evidence?
