“fictional AI CP” isn’t a thing. AI is trained on existing data. It does not create new stuff. If you want AI to generate CP then you have to train it on CP.

I had the misfortune to have to share an office with a bunch of sales morons. I can recommend Bose idiot-cancelling headphones. What a bunch of selfish noisy fuckwombles.

Heh, I wonder how the ml tankies are spinning this one and what browser they’re going to use instead of Nazifox or whatever stupid name they’re using for it now.

“reputations” hehe, nice one.

How does a CPU drop support for an OS? Seems the wrong way round to me. Is there a Windows 10 specific way of loading 5 into the accumulator or something?

I doubt the majority of MS users need to tail a log file. And of those of us that do, how many don’t know that Notepad++ does it?

Well it’s only Windows that’s complaining it can’t install Windows 11 on my Windows 10 laptop. I’m not mothballing perfectly good hardware just because Microsoft is having a tantrum.

British Christian here, with an engineering degree. I think knowledge is a good thing. But it’s not the only thing; faith is important too. Balancing the two can be tricky because we always want more “why?” and God isn’t always going to answer that. But He is good, infinitely good, there is no evil in Him, and He has promised to be with us forever. There are times when you just have to switch your analytics off and trust, and find the peace within “I don’t know.”

Copilot gives a four step solution then finishes with “glue is not the answer”.

Marshmallow and chips. Dry they were okay, I could separate the flavours, but with gravy added the flavour of the marshmallows mixed in with the gravy and chips and the whole lot tasted horrible.

Also by claiming “developing nation”, which is up to the nation to decide for themselves instead of having someone else decide for them, the planet’s second largest economy gets to claim WTO rules that the recipient (country) pays delivery. That’s why you can buy something from China for $1.50 and yet it costs $150 to send it back if it doesn’t work.

That’s not a real operator. You’ve put a space in “i–” and removed the space in “-- >”. The statement is “while i-- is greater than zero”. Inventing an unnecessary “goes to” operator just confuses beginners and adds something else to think about while debugging.

And yes I have seen beginners try to use <-- and --<. Just stop it.

That’s a great plan! Do be sure to let us all know how it goes.

A programmer’s pet peeve is someone who says “why can’t you just…”.

But the fundamental problem with your plan, assuming it’s possible at all - it’s been said that if the brain were simple enough for us to understand then we’d be too simple to understand it - is that you’re going to want to make your AI at least as smart as someone who’s 30-40 years old, which by definition would take 30-40 years.

I’d be happy to upgrade my laptop to Win11 but Win11 doesn’t like it. I’m not buying a new laptop just because of Win11’s dick moves. Win10 works perfectly well on it.

You should get him a call blocker. If TrueCall exist in your part of the world I can highly recommend them. They have a few profiles available from mostly open to absolutely locked down with a whitelist.

Edit: https://www.truecall.co.uk/ Might be UK-only. Have a look anyway as it’ll give you some idea of what can be done.

It’s not really a choice. If you don’t want to be on the streets then you have two options: buy or rent. (There is a third: squatting, but that has its own downsides.) Presumably riodoro1 can’t buy (or has chosen not to for some other reason) and doesn’t want to be homeless or a squatter.

BUY SOME SHIT!!! T BUY SOME SHIT!!! h BUY SOME SHIT!!! i BUY SOME SHIT!!! s BUY SOME SHIT!!!

Edit: and if that’s what you want, then may I suggest Reddit as a chatroom AI bollocks with ads splattered all over them.

The problem though is when they flip the “enshittify” switch and everyone, even you, then knows they’re the wolf in sheep’s clothing they always were, it’ll be too late, and those of us that don’t want to pay the Zuck tax or have ads shoved in our faces left right and centre is to start over.

But we’re done retreating. They took Fark, they took Digg, they’ve just taken Reddit, and now they want Lemmy. Enough is enough. The line is drawn here and they are NOT crossing it.

If Meta’s other sites were shining examples of the best then you might have a point. The only viable way to prevent Meta killing Lemmy is to nip them in the bud. And yes it seems mean because this is the stage when they’re pretending to be everyone’s best friend and giving us loads of stuff for free. But we know the playbook, we know they’re at step 1, and we know perfectly well that Zuck isn’t sniffing around here out of any kind of altruism but because he’s after more $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

The video was from the Amiga version. Maybe you played it on PC. The sound was amazing, both the tunes and the SFX. I can highly recommend replaying it on an Amiga emulator, or at least watch the above video.
