I’m interested in hardware that can better run local models. Right now the best bet is a GPU, but I’d be interested in a laptop with dedicated chips for AI that would work with pytorch. I’m a novice but I know it takes forever on my current laptop.
Not interested in running copilot better though.
For the folks who don’t know The singer from POTUSA sings kids music as Casper Babypants and his songs are bangers that my 11 month old daughter and I both enjoy equally.
What’s your definition of a computer? Chromebooks might not be your preferred computer, but they meet every definition of computer that I’m aware of, and I know plenty of people who love them. I know at least two people who run a business from them. They’re not for me, but they’re great for others.
What the hell. That classifies almost anyone who goes on vacation as rich.
You wouldn’t be at burning man then. It’s obviously a very different experience.
It’s mostly the being rich thing.
It’s really sad that something like this gets so much news coverage and international support, while poor people are facing similar fates and we all pretend it’s not happening.
I understand the news coverage. These are folks who are relatable to a lot of western audiences. People aspire to their wealth. The international support and rescue efforts though are a little shameful. You don’t see this kind of efforts when it’s migrants fleeing war and oppression.
I see the attention on the war in Ukraine similarly. What Russia is doing is shameful and I’m glad Ukraine is getting so much help. At the same time Yemen has it much worse. Hardly anyone even knows there is a war happening there, but it’s American built bombs that are dropping on neighborhoods. They’re not quite white and relatable enough to get us all putting their flag on our Twitter profiles.
I use Windows, Linux and MacOS daily, and want a phone where the connectivity features don’t care what platform I’m on. iOS wants you to be on other Apple devices.
Beyond that, Android is more flexible. I don’t do much fiddling with my phone’s configuration but I like to have the option.
Lastly, I just like the interface better. That’s subjective, and no I understand completely why iphone folks prefer that interface, but I like the stock android interface much better.
I’ve read that the main reason Google funds Mozilla is to prevent a monopoly situation. I bet they’ll stay committed.
Mozilla really does need to diversify their funding though.
