Is that why I can hear colors? Huh. And where was me thinking it was because my neighbors have been too busy throwing parties to let me have some sleep this past week.

I’m not a fan of it either because yandex always thinks I’m a bot and makes me do a captcha every 2-3 pages. But it’s significantly better than Google or bing at finding stuff. I find that if I can’t find it through there, it most likely ju

Knowledge is power. Do you really think that the usefulness of knowledge is limited to trying to sell you stuff? If so, you’ve never thought about it very deeply.

No. If you create a strain of a disease that is less persistent, it would obviously be wiped out almost instantly by basic natural selection.

They released an SDK for some windows support a month ago. As far as I understand, it’s still being developed. A bit slow, but it’s not abandoned.

They already are. The artificial limits on vram have significantly crippled pretty much the entire generation (on the consumer side). On the AI side, rocm is rapidly catching up, though it’s nowhere near parity and I suspect Apple may take
