They’re 3 Australian guys from Adelaide.

I didn’t say there are never any issues I said it’s fine. The idea that “success stories” are only amd is silly. 90/100 times unless you’re using bleeding edge hardware or pathologically fussy you just hit play and stuff works. 9 out of the remaining 10 times you tweak a proton version or wine setting, the other time it’s a driver bug.

What? I have a 2060 and shit runs fine. Nvidia’s drivers have improved a lot since the 2010s.

My first job was extracting text from pdfs, in the end OCR was the most reasonable way. This was back in like 2010 when it was waaaaay harder.

Everyone who enjoys cosmic horror should read the PDF spec. https://pdfa.org/resource/pdf-specification-archive/

You can embed 3d models in PDF.

You shouldn’t but you can!

Very hinged lemmy comment.

My wife has done courses on warning signs for abusive relationships as part of some mental health first aid certification stuff.

2 biiiiiig red flags are insisting on surveillance and not letting people have separate finances. We have a combined account sure, and also pocket money accounts and whatever else. For all I know she’s set up a trust. I mean I don’t think she has because she’d probably tell me but she has the freedom to do so.

Obviously we have wills lmao

Yes we’re teenagers. We’ve been married 15 years, ceremony was when we were three.

Privacy is important, have you never kept a diary? Do you film therapy sessions lest your partner not know what you discussed? Shit with the door open? You don’t need justification for wanting privacy, you need privacy so when you have a good reason for it nothing looks different.

What if there’s an emergency?

What if there is? Get help, that’s an insane fear to live with. If I am unconscious there’s nothing to do anyway, the hospital or whatever will find her details in my purse and call. What the fuck am I going to do, sit there watching the dot on the map and calling 000 if it stops moving? You are a lunatic, we have society to take care of us while we’re out and about and emergency beacons if you’re like camping beyond the black stump or sailing the Pacific.

You are obviously not a woman.

Therapy would be better for you than a panopticon.

What if your partner wants to run away from you? Do you not trust that they would have a good reason?

Vile.

I trust my wife, and she trusts me. We trust each other not to ask for stupid brain-poisoning shit that humans weren’t meant to have access to that could one day blow up horribly.

I don’t have her passwords, she doesn’t have mine. Our phones are locked. I could technically see what she’s doing online I suppose via traffic snooping in the router logs but the day I feel the urge to do something like that is the day I kill myself for having abandoned basic moral principles.

We’re apes, we have brains built for avoiding snakes in tall grass and finding water and berries. You poison yourself with surveillance, you feed your worst and most destructive impulses. Practice keeping secrets, practice being okay with not knowing. Trust isn’t surveillance, trust is knowing that if something fucking mattered you’d be told.

edit: I want my wife to be able to break my heart because if she does she’ll have a good reason for doing so. That is what trust is.

If you changed the name to singularity or something, or undefined? Referring to the results of the operations you might get somewhere?

I’ll never read /Foo as divide by foo haha. Too much time on the linuxes.

Unfortunately acronyms are a rather ingrained feature of English text communication, and db0 is how that falls out. Not sure you’ll win this one.

The things I consider myself informed enough to answer questions on.

People should do this for stuff they generated with llms too. Realistically English needs evidentials, like tenses that explain the source.

Much unintentional disinformation would be cleared up if people stated the source. E.g. “I remember learning…” “Someone I trust told me…” “I heard an expert say…” “a statistical text generator emitted…” “a random internet comment said…”

So cool that you have to booby trap sites and insert delays and stuff because a handful of rich psychopaths refuse to respect robots.txt

Yeah it sucks. Between crypto and machine learning hardware is absolutely fucked. I’m hoping it’ll settle down a bit when people realise that llm’s are not going to make god from a machine but we shall see.

Hadn’t considered Singapore, assumed it’d be expensive since land is and they’re rich as fuck. I guess power is cheap since their billionaires are taking all the gas here and selling it back haha. Compute seems relatively affordable for a RTT of 110 ms.

Probably rules out like fighting games and other similar frame perfect stuff but that’s definitely not too bad. 6 frame delay probably isn’t noticeable on anything turn based, or many RPGs and the like.

Tell me more of this frankencomputer.

I’m not broke by any means, but lower end of average household income in an extremely expensive place. Groceries have gone up about 4 fold in the last 5 years (50 bucks used to feed 2 for a week, lol lmao now. Beans went from 3 dollars a kg dry to 11 etc) so certain things are on the chopping block.

I was looking at the cost for a “2k” oled monitor and appropriate computer and haha, hahaha, hahahahahahahaha I have medical bills and shit lmao. Not paying like 3-5k to play the 1 or 2 increasingly bad modern games I want to.

Since Google has infinite money they probably ran local compute.
