Comment Re:The death of homework (Score 1) 107

If school hours aren't long enough to allow this, why not make school hours longer!

First, because there are only 24 hours in a day.

Second: I took AP classes constantly. Compared to normal classes, there was not "more homework." The homework was MORE RIGOROUS. For students who were not equipped for it, it might have taken more time than the "standard" class homework.

Third - The quantity of homework has gone up significantly since I grew up in the 1970s. - Every time I see some senilefuck say things like this, I suspect they're either lying or just not remembering correctly. Time to change your Depends in the retirement home, grandpa.

They can be called in the same way, but not all of them are as good at working in a particular harness as each other. Anthropics models have been trained to call tools in a certain way, the chinese models may or may not work in a way that is compatible. Tool calling ability (not just whether or not you can do it, but how and when it decides which tools to call and why) differs WILDLY between open models.

Once a month it tries to force my browser default back to Edge. I tell it to fuck off.

A few times they've done it BEHIND MY BACK and I had to fix it manually after a fake "patch" to windows.

Before the days of Dumbass Fuckwit Trump and the Constitution Hating Treasonshit GOP, we had government entities that SUED Microsoft under Antitrust law for this shit.

Fuck the GOP. Fuck them for enabling this shit. Every crossburning Constitution-hating member of the GOP is a fucking shitrag.

but IIRC, Apple has iOS's iCloud backup on by default (and quickly runs out of space and then nags you to subscribe to a paid tier).

DUH. That's the play. They force you into a "service" as an "opt out." Then - oh, the free tier is insufficient. Or the free tier JUST GOES AWAY and then they're holding your computer hostage.

Retardican GOP failed utterly at governance, the government entities that were supposed to be watching out for us and enforcing antitrust law died under Trump. Every Retardican traitor to the Constitution helped cause this shit.

My Facebook account was assassinated a few years back for posting "#NEVERAGAIN" and a link to the British Holocaust Memorial Day Trust on May 6. Reason eventually given: the link to a HOLOCAUST REMEMBRANCE PAGE was supposedly "glorifying violent individuals or organizations."

That's right. Nazi Trash Filth Zuckerberg decided that saying "#NEVERAGAIN" about the Holocaust was somehow "glorifying" violent individuals or organizations...
