Subverb

About two months ago I upgraded from 3090 to 4090. On my 1440p I basically couldn’t tell. I play mostly MMOs and ARPGs.

Worst part of this is 4-space indents. Damn script kiddies.

If Zombieland taught us anything, it’s the double-tap.

I hate when companies inconvenience me while trying to disrupt a near-monopoly by my benign benefactors.

I’ve almost forgotten how shitty Google has become. Been using kagi search for a year now.

It’s so nice to get clean unbiased search results.

You should go ahead and watch the second half. It’s a good movie.

I’ll pour one out for the Yaris.

It’s useful for my firmware development, but it’s a tool like any other. Pros and cons.

But think how safe you would be if you did pack a bomb.

The odds of there being one bomb on a plane are tiny enough, but the odds of there being two bombs on a plane are vanishingly small…

And all those potentially explosive water bottles are sitting in a trash can at the security checkpoint.

This indicates that they know full well that their are no explosives among them. It’s just theatre.

Five years ago the audience would have fawned all over this kind of crap.

It’s good to see people are wise to his stock pumping strategy now.

It’s intentional.

Obviously, Google makes money showing ads during search. But they have finally bit the bullet and starting tarpitting users in search in order to show more ads.

A quick, useful, and accurate search means that you’re on their site for the least amount of time, perhaps mere seconds. That’s not what’s best for revenue growth.

PS: Go try Kagi and be reminded what good clean search results look like. I use it because my time has value. It’s very good.

Just-Friends Justin.

And he should use a harpoon because that shit hurts.

Guess I’m out of the loop. Who’s Elmo?

I commend you, but it’s a losing battle.

It really grates on me when I read “sike”.

Supposedly she was an information and IT specialist… Setting the thing up to not broadcast its SSID should have been one of the first things they thought of. But probably she didn’t know it could be done, which again speaks to her overall incompetence.

The process of training the model is arguably similar to a human learning, and if the model just sat on a server doing nothing but knowing, there’d be no problem. Taking that knowledge and selling it to the public en mass is the issue.

This is precisely what copyrights and patents are here to safeguard. Is there already a book like A Song of Ice and Fire? Write something else, maybe better! There’s already a patent for an idea you have? Change and improve upon it and get your own patent!

You see, copyrights and patents are supposed to spur creativity, not hinder it. OpenAI should improve upon its system so that it actually thinks and is creative itself rather than regurgitating copyrighted materials, themes and ideas. Then they wouldn’t have this problem.

OpenAI wants literally all of human knowledge and creativity for free so that they can sell it back to you. And you’re okay-ish with it?

Or a few years early…

This is essentially what OpenAI is asking for. To profit off of the work of unpaid labor.
