chicken,

This is an interesting angle. Makes me wonder, do we have a moral duty to reciprocate love and loyalty, or the potential for it? And if not, what basis can there be for treatment of human beings?

chicken,

My interpretation is politics discussions and the temptation to just go along with being pigeonholed

A year ago local LLM was just not there, but the stuff you can run now with 8gb vram is pretty amazing, if not quite as good yet as GPT 4. Honestly even if it stops right where it is, it’s still powerful enough to be a foundation for a more accessible and efficient way to interface with computers.

chicken,

I think it’s just since it is a visible thing, and because alternatives are products you can buy and be seen using, it becomes a prime target for scolding and virtue signalling.

Ending support for Windows 10 could send 240 million computers to the landfill. Why not install Linux on them? (gadgettendency.com)

With support ending for Windows 10, the most popular desktop operating system in the world currently, possibly 240 million pcs may be sent to the landfill. This is mostly due to Windows 11’s exorbitant requirements. This will most likely result in many pcs being immediately outdated, and prone to viruses. GNU/Linux may be...

chicken,

So what do people think of TPM, supposedly why they’re doing this?

What is Something Scientific that you just don't believe in at all?

EDIT: Let’s cool it with the downvotes, dudes. We’re not out to cut funding to your black hole detection chamber or revoke the degrees of chiropractors just because a couple of us don’t believe in it, okay? Chill out, participate with the prompt and continue with having a nice day. I’m sure almost everybody has something...

Appreciate the thoughtful and in-depth response. My worry is more that a science article’s editorialized interpretation of the paper may be wrong or misleading, than that the public isn’t very able to scrutinize the quality of science in the paper itself. Waiting for a possible email response from a researcher is pretty much always going to be a little too high effort for someone wanting to spend a few minutes comparing claims in the article and claims in the paper to potentially call bullshit on discrepancies between them in an online comment.

chicken,

I’ve heard that beans can give people indigestion if they don’t eat them very often, idk how many of their dishes actually have beans in them though

chicken,

I am picturing bits of smelly corn perpetually floating at the top of the p-trap under the shower drain

chicken,

Point is having a drivers license does not mean very much about whether you are competent at driving.

chicken,

Most new money enters the system by being created via loans ultimately from the federal reserve bank. This is the primary way the money supply expands.

chicken,

Money printing. Larger amounts loaned out every year devaluing all existing dollars. The number might be higher but it counts for less. Official inflation figures don’t even cover it since they don’t count things people actually try to use to store wealth.

chicken,

When they increase the money supply, yes they do.

chicken,

That’s an assumption about what I meant, but the fact is both create money. Banks loan out new money, which must only be matched by deposits equal to a small percentage of their outstanding loans specified by the reserve requirement. Which not too long ago IIRC was temporarily removed entirely.

chicken,

Yeah at this point it’s rarely worth it for me, mostly just don’t drink anymore.

chicken,

Idk how to square it away with what you’re saying but potatoes are good for you and granulated sugar is bad for you.

chicken,

I never got the point of watching a movie with someone if you’re both just totally silent and not interacting the whole time. Then at the end it’s like “what did you think of the movie” “it was ok” “yeah”

2 hours wasted

chicken,

Sounds like you’re pretty far up there in terms of being financially well off then, most people don’t have the option of doing that.

chicken,

I mostly only use youtube for music, so my only complaint is that it’s some extra clicks to get a url in my clipboard I can use with my yt-dl script

chicken,

Yeah but the saying doesn’t make sense anymore since most of the fish are gone. Fishing is now a form of entertainment maintained by the state that you must pay to enjoy in a limited way, not a viable source of sustenance.
