That should disqualify them from ever being taken seriously on anything. Would you trust water from a well that was once poisoned? Even if you scrubbed every inch with soap and water, wouldn't there still be some residue that you'

The only place that reminds me of the old Internet is VRChat, funny enough. You're guaranteed to be interacting with a nerdy, culturally similar human who's present in the moment.

It's so ingrained in you you don't even consider it a use of ipv4. 192.168.1.x is natural and pretty. ipv6 is a horror show and incompatible with the way that we think and remember things. "Ah, crap, avahi isn't working,

IPv6 addresses are ugly and hard to memorize. IPv4 addresses are pretty and easier to memorize. That's about the end of the discussion as to why it's basically a failure.

I briefly tried to contribute to a popular AI project (a ChatGPT-like web-based interface) where I found some bugs and reported them as issues, with steps to reproduce. The maintainer closed them and moved them to discussions, which is what

Given the political comments in what's supposed to be a filter, and how everything is prefaced with "shit" like "Pinterest shit," I bet the author had a personal political disagreement with those accounts. The list

As someone with a basement rig of 6x 3090s, not really. It's quite slow, as with that many params (685B) it's offloading basically all of it into system RAM. I limit myself to models with <144B params, then it's quite an e

I had a Matrox Millenium card with a breakout box for capturing RCA, S-Video, and Cable TV; I'd watch TV on my Windows 98 SE2 computer, which was the craziest thing back then, but I always felt like the green-screen like effect was som

I'd pay a decent price for a non-emulated 486 on a credit card sized board, or in a cute little case, with useful peripherals. Something like those Aliexpress mini pocket 386 computers, but 486 is significantly more useful for gaming.

From your link, I wish they would answer this, and they've been asked numerous times, and to my knowledge have avoided the question (which is very concerning to me): >This is excellent news! Will there also be official documentation

I bet they'll phase it out and try to force their worse service, wherein your data is stored on their servers, like they tried to do with PINs. It took enormous pushback to get them to stop mandatory PINs, and even then they made it na
