I'm sure it's very expensive to make FABs to start making RAM & SSD chips. I think the govt is going to have to step in with some kind of price control or forcing mfgs to divert a % of RAM for end consumers. But, we're ob

I'm sick of having so many different messaging apps. Everyone is using a different one, so you have to download another app, signup for something, figure out how to configure it & etc etc. We need a modern Trillian or Pidgin that j

I can definitely see them wanting to have models that can run on Windows computers or Surface tablets locally - although their focus seems to be sticking CoPilot into absolutely anything and everything possible, but why synthetic data model

Why does Microsoft keep releasing models trained on synthetic data? Is it possible their contract with OpenAI won't let them do anything else? I would think Microsoft, of all companies, would want to be working on their own LLM behind

I think the primary concern addressed in the article is it's ability to connect directly through TOR, so the person using Molly would potentially have less metadata available for analysis. So, as with all things privacy related, it dep

The p2p audio piracy portion of Napster was shut down by 2001. The other common p2p sharing platforms like Kazaa, gnutella, et al. mostly supported any type of audio format (at least from what I can remember). People wanted mp3 because in t

I don't know why. It's pretty much the same argument we're seeing now with JPEG XL. Ogg works perfectly fine & is a completely servicable audio codec, but browsers just took it out of their supported codecs and devices li

Why are we seeing AWS, then Azure, then Cloudflare all going down just out of the blue? I know they go down occasionally, but it's typically not major outages like this...

I don't know why you'd choose to use it if you had no idea what it's doing differently. It could just be a round robin/random picker, or based on which of their APIs aren't getting used much.

How does it determine which model to send it too? There's a lack of details in the url. Maybe they're not even sure? :)

That's most likely the reason pressure is being put on them. Big media companies successfully shutdown 12ft.io, which was used to bypass paywalls, and forced the BPC (Bypass Paywalls Chrome) browser extension off the Mozilla Extension
