The point of the EU directive is too have easily user-replaceable batteries in phones, EV batteries will never be easily user-replaceable as long as they are heavier than what a human can lift. Swappable EV batteries are not a new thing and

That seems unlikely, since it would multiply the design costs. But since I am in the EU I wouldn't mind.

https://startrek.website is the third Google result for "star trek lemmy". "Star trek discussion board" shows many other discussion boards, so discoverability seems fine to me.

Napster was actually made up of a large number of servers that didn't really communicate much, especially for chat. You couldn't choose your server on the official application, but others allowed you to do you could always meet th

The comment you are responding to might have been updated, but this region is called MENA and a link to Wikipedia is even included. It's a well-known concept.

Since translation is given less and less thought, the underlying system is also becoming more basic and less context-aware. I don't remember exact occurrences but I've noticed quite a few similar problems on macOS that are just th

That's 50 m², which seems more than enough to me for a single person or even a couple without children if they live in a place where you can enjoy the outside.

Probably the larger languages will be affected somewhat as well (I can't test Spanish but I've used GPT3.5 in French without issues) but not as much I think, such automated attacks seem to most often be targeted at English (I supp

That's not wrong, although it's often very easy to spot.

The good news is that this will mostly affect English, but most other languages are likely to keep being mostly generated by humans. This could even encourage people to use their own language more on the internet, which I think is a win for

I had a race car track like that, I think they were my father's, so dating from the 70's. It was great and I only got shocked a couple of times, you quickly learn to be careful.

I'm pretty sure TGV tracks do use ballast though, don't they? And they are among the fastest trains in operation, so it seems to work fine for them.

My test for open models is surprisingly simple. I just ask "What is the capital of France?" and I haven't had a correct answer yet in any model I tried. They often get Paris right at least, but most other details are wrong. G

GPT4 still isn't freely available, is it? So it's not that surprising people aren't using it as much as the older ones.

Birds are immensely closer to use than octopods though. Our last common ancestor was a worm with a very primitive nervous system, no brain and not even eyes. Birds are not mammals but we are still both descended from vertebrates with comple

I have mixed feelings as well, for the same reason, but I find it absolutely terrible that the citizens of Mali, RCA, Gabon, and Equatorial Guinea have basically been robbed of their TLD by their (mostly failed) governments.
