You'd spend less compute just serving the crawlers than maintaining the Blockchain. Like, 3 orders of magnitude less compute, conservatively counting.

When did Ubuntu do that? It's been my main OS since 05 and I can't recall that ever happening?

The number of times I've posted my sudo password in a random slack channel instead of my terminal is not very high, but too damn high nonetheless

I'm Swedish and I was only vaguely aware Chuck Norris even had a career outside the jokes.

Neat thing about a split board: it forces you to do correct typing. I was like you until I got the UHK. It was a pretty awkward first week with lots of trying to press buttons with the wrong hand and ending up smashing air instead. But afte

The grade separated trail sounds great in theory, but in practice it's surprisingly ineffective for some unknown reason. In Sweden we have a ton of those and for some reason bikers insist on participating in the death race with the oth

To turn the colourful phrasing against you, I too would like a death robot to protect me from all the murder monkeys having a death race around me if I was out biking on the road/death race track.

Yeah I phrased that wrong. I wanted to emphasize that I don't live in Norway. I found it extra impressive that it worked so seamlessly even with a foreign car. Oh well.

Nah it arrives electronically to kivra, which is like email except you log in with your social security number and it's only for "official business" like invoices and whatnot.

A fellow Swede I presume? It's extra silly cause I once parked in central Oslo and got the ticket mailed to my sthlm address. No fuss, no problem, super easy! We got a lot to learn from our neighbours....

Sounds like you might benefit from something like the UHK[1]. It's got tenting, which approaches that natural tilt to your hands, and there are several mouse add-ons to choose from, I'm sure one of them will suit your needs. [1] h

It is better. We have a decently strong cheese tradition in Sweden too, but French cheese is tastier. I don't even like the French, their culture is obnoxious, I'd take every chance to shit on the French. But you just can't a

I think one of the biggest gains of AI is the second order effects. And maybe a bit in the third order as well. When coding with Claude, I can focus on the architecture, the big picture of the implementation, while Claude takes care of the

That sounds like me. There's a 1:1 correlation between how many cups of coffee I've had and the number of languages I speak. And like a true computer nerd, of course it's an unsigned integer, meaning if I drink too much coff

Nitpick: you will probably never be able to try it legally . There are lots of ways you could try LSD tho.

I'm starting to realise I might have completely misunderstood the whole lmgtfy thing. I thought it was a semi-rude way to call someone out for asking lazy questions instead of trying to find the answer themselves.

Those "gifts" seem like they should've been considered bribes, with hard time consequences for both briber and bribee.

Reminds me of "The Wrong Way Home" about a guy who did a similar land-only trip, except from London to Sydney. I spent a huge part of my teens and early twenties dreaming of doing the same. These days the mere thought gives me a b

Lol same, it's blinking away in a case with no window, so at least I don't have to see it!

So the pixel editor I made using AI that was trained on, among other things, the Linux kernel, is to be considered derivative of the Linux kernel? And that's not an interpretation?
382.
by amarant 7mo ago
I do know what it is, I've even read the licence in full! What specific paragraph in the GPL prohibits training of AI on it? I guess it might be a matter of interpretation, but by my reading, it is allowed. Ps. In the future, try to re

Correct! This is the exact reason anyone who wants to use the os itself as a moat uses FreeBSD as a base instead, and add proprietary modifications to it. FreeBSD also being a open source gift, that does not have those requirements that Lin

Isn't that the case, and even the point, of all open source, even before AI? What's the point of a gift if the receiver isn't allowed to benefit/profit from it? For instance, do you think Linus is upset that ~90% of all

It would be refreshing to see someone try to use "but think of the children" to actually help children, instead of just screwing over adults.

The UK is lost too. Chat control is scary, but it's actually proof that the EU is not yet lost: that law keeps getting shot down. We do need some kind of mechanism to prevent this kind of "keep trying until it passes" mechani

What do you mean "the west"? The US is indeed lost, but don't bundle the rest of us in with those lunatics!
