I still have the og steam controller, three of them in fact. They still work but I lost the dongle and rely on Bluetooth. It was an experience. Definitely won't consider buying a controller from them again. The Xbox controller is perf

As far as I can tell, Linux will remain not targeted by attempts to sponge off all kinds of user data. Which makes me so happy that I finally made the leap.

I asked GPT 5 to spell out the individual letters of strawberry or blueberry. It did it correctly by essentially putting a space char in between the letters. Then I simply asked it to count all unique letters in the word. GPT 5 still got it

Another caveat with this method is that both larger and smaller models need to behave very similar because a lot of the savings come from generating the necessary fluff around each detail such as grammar, formatting and words/letters t

I believe that is exactly the downside of using speculative decoding, which is why it is very important to have the models properly sized between each other by making sure the small use is big enough to be mostly correct while also being ex

Personally, I think bigger companies should be more proactive and work with some of the popular inference engine software devs with getting their special snowflake LLM to work before it gets released. I guess it is all very much experimenta

Yeah you are right, however some of what I said does have some merit as there are plenty of things I talked about that apply to why you would need dynamic preemption. However, the other person who mentioned the issue with needing to take

I fully agree with you. I wish people would stop focusing heavily on how removing features can potentially decrease attacks. Especially when those exact features are used to prevent the WORST possible attack vector, a mishandled or exploite

The data has to be decrypted and read, so eventually you reverse engineer the client and figure out how to decrypt on the fly, then they wise up and introduce key based signing, which you eventually try to steal from the client and breaking

I dont buy the anti theft angle either. People's phones still end up stolen, and they are still contacted by the thieves to remove the icloud account. ICloud is a good enough feature to prevent theft, and having authorized repair opti

I like number 7, the documentation one, which really goes to show how little the real item is understood while everyone else is creating/imagining their own version. Dissociation within the whole team.

It's the monthly fee I have a problem with. Unless the monthly fee guarantees a new pack if the battery degradation from an increased DoC, then it is good. As it currently stands, it is literally a jerk move on the company's side.

Because it is more expensive to dig underground vs. just slapping heat generators(ac unit) on top of everyone's house and collecting the extra money in the power bill than doing it the right way.

My biggest question is how they are going to police this. Will each download contain hidden flags to mark it as your account? How will they be able to discern what account it came from? Sounds like a nightmare to control and may end up cost
