I do something I think is simpler, and it is extremely portable. I use this on Linux and *BSD. I just call nanosleep(2) based upon the amount if data processed. This is set by a parameter file that contains the sleep time and amount of da

To be honest I will avoid AI at all costs :) But if I had to have AI, it would be on a local PC without an internet connection. Sadly this seems Windows only, which is a no-go for me, plus with Windows 11, can you really run it without an

So will China, but in a good way as research the US funded heads to mainland China. Xi must be dancing for joy, in maybe 10 to 20 years, China will be by far a big economic powerhouse, eclipsing the US on its way to the top. Funny thing i

I am curious how many other "social" sites took this stand. I think what bluesky did is the only way to fight these laws that all it will do is be a boon to people who obtain and sell PI. For people in Mississippi, you can always

To me, it this whole vibe/LLM/AI thing looks like yet another method pushed by MBAs to speed up development, save money and make things "easier". But in reality slows things down to a crawl. Over the decades I have seen

Same here, got burned from Amazon a HDD with broken pieces, luckily I got a refund. I vowed never to by tech items from Amazon again, you do not really know if you are getting new or some kind of refurbished item.

Well glad to see the New York Times calling it exactly what is going on, purge. As in what is common in the USSR and Russia. Yet congress and the courts are allowing Trump to destroy all the hard work prior generations put in to trying to

I saw nothing of note on OpenBSD. I added the plugin and it prompted me an attempt was made to scan the network, it said it blocked the scan SO, I guess that is going to be used on all my firefox runs.

Antisemitism has been growing in the US and started growing fast in 2016, I wonder why. Plus if anyone thinks Trump is defending Jewish people here in the US, I have a bridge to sell you. He is using that as a tool to extract revenge, the

Odd, did something change with phrack ? I usually go there using lynx, but this time I get "Alert!: HTTP/1.1 308 Permanent Redirect" Will try dillo but I guess I will be stuck using Firefox. edit: dillo worked fine.

Something seems odd to me. Usually to use a reputable VPN you need to pay. The free ones, which I think kids would use, have more issues to worry about than porn :) In order for a kid to pay, I think some adult will see the charge some w

To me, when google rename Bard to Gemini, they should have been dragged into court. But the Gemini people have no funds for this, so big money wins. But at the least a trademark complaint could have been filed. In any case, I do not use g

Seems the issue is for 141, I am on 140.1 and I have been seeing odd issues of late. I figured someone is hammering cloudflare, or did cloudflare make another change that is killing some sites ? I wonder if that is part of the problem. FWIW
