What do you mean by embedded/non-embedded? Apple uses SoC and SiPs, they are as "embedded" as anything else being used in a PC. Embedded systems are systems hidden within something else. PCs are the opposite of that.
I regret not getting more GPU. I have a 4060 Ti 16GB, as the minimum card with decent VRAM. I did buy some 8TB HDDs too, but I only got 3 of 'em.
99.44% chance that this is about sending more tax money to ol' musky.
At present, it is impossible to predict long-term technological developments and the evolution of consumer preferences.
Yes, they might prefer slower internet!
This guy has passed right by needing to determine whether people would like fire which can be fitted nasally and on to deserving to have it fitted rectally.
(remember the "90% of the brain is not used" pre-fMRI myth?)
Yes, but only in the same way as I remember there was a global cooling scare supported by a tiny minority of scientists but in fact perpetrated by media — which has always been sensationalist. The actual scientific statement was that most of the brain is not active at any given time. We found out that more of it is doing something more of the time, but some areas remain way more active than others so there's still a kernel of truth to that idea — the same as it ever was.
Don't encourage him. The peak of his thinking is that we're more responsible than China so unfettered capitalism is great actually.
I did the same, although I "only" got 64GB. I have a 5900X. I bought the MiniPC in part because they are both Zen3, that's handy since I run Devuan on both so if I build a package specifically for this architecture I can use it in both places.
Anyone who suggests using a MiniPCB instead of a small SBC shouldn't be touching SBCs.
Anyone who suggests they know better than someone else what they wanted the computer for should spend less time touching themself publicly.
Some of us don't want to hear a lot of bullshit.
Suggesting for example that I should have to constantly hear from the religious about what they think their magic sky daddy wants from me today is frankly absolute shit. Those people do not deserve attention. They should be ignored. No one should have to accept their harassment.
The idea that I should want to be subjected to that kind of emotional abuse is childish at best and comes from a needy place of having to have everyone be forced to listen to YOU.
Sure, we reasonably know training AI is fair use, although that could get modified in the future. But I'm not talking about training an AI model, I'm talking about the output from the model.
"Open" (without the word "source") originally typically meant "interoperable", which for software frequently meant as little as "documented and with headers". Before most people had ever heard of "open source" there were all kinds of other open things, most commonly standards. If your platform is open to the public, that's a legitimate kind of openness that's also familiar.
I bought a MiniPC from China instead, a GMKtec M5 Plus with 5825U, 32GB DDR4 and a 1TB NVMe SSD — for $295 right before everything went to shit. That one is out of production, but an equivalent machine is now $600. I've had it for over a year now with literally no problems.
The memory is 3.2 GHz, and despite being so cheap it doesn't even report a manufacturer, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it. It's got wifi 6 (MT7922) and dual 2.5 GbE (RTL8125) and the only thing that requires even a vaguely recent kernel is the wifi. It came with Windows, and I even shrank that just in case I'm ever desperate for a real Windows machine to flash some firmware or something, but ofc I've never needed or wanted to.
Too bad the combination of AI bullshit and tariff fuckery has doubled the price, I'd buy another similar machine.
It's like the LGBTWFTBBQ+ people supporting the IRGC or Taliban.
You know Iran was becoming more and more tolerant and secular before we fucked it all up for oil profit, right?
we do know pretty well how "copying" and "reproducing" works and it's definitely not that.
Unfortunately we don't really. The standard for what is a derivative work is substantial recognizable elements. It doesn't specify exactly how you get there.
otoh the process of creating these models has been universally called "training" and "learning" for a while, and that's because there is a obvious conceptual similarity with these human processes, even though we do not know exactly how neurons go about it
I'm not trying to convince anyone to change their terminology, but the aptness of the term is all on the conceptual side.
