The one being incorrect is you. Archie's representation is quite accurate, in the US context.

Yes, a very "middle of the road" supporter of far-right Tommy Robinson (who has a 17% positivity ranking among Brits). The guy who said "When wolves get out of control, you shoot them. When gypsies take over public spaces, you deport them." The guy who described diversity as an "ideological inferno", a "religion" led by "high priests". The guy who was so radical and repressive at Basecamp that at one point 1/3rd of its employees all walked out en masse. Truly, a remarkable centrist of our times!

This sounds an awful lot like the rhetoric that was spread about Jews before WW2, and which was used as the justification for the Final Solution.

To add some context, this false claim about London no longer being full of "native Brits" is... Well, if you add up all the people who identified as British at the 2021 census, it's 71.1%. It's just that only about 39% of them are white. There are lot of Black and Asian (which in English means from India, Pakistan, and countries in that region, not East Asian countries like China) British citizens there too. Lots of mixed race, because non-racist white Brits form relationships with non-white Brits.

That's why the far right in the UK has pivoted to talking about "native Brits". When you ask them exactly what that means, they tell you it's white with a long lineage of white ancestors in the UK. That would exclude our king, and one of our most famous Prime Ministers, Winston Churchill, as well as many other notable British people. They rely on people not thinking that hard about it.

So TL:DR it's a racist dog whistle.

They mean it's like a shitty Tesla with only one central screen that has the IC on it. If you want one in front of the driver where you don't have to glance to the side to see basic information like your speed, you have to pay extra.

Not that I was planning to, but that's Hyundai off my list of potential vehicles.

Not talking about VRAM or unified memory. Regular DRAM.

There's been a lot of advancement recently on how to best manage MoE expert swapping (FreeToken is just one example).

How are you connecting to Slashdot from the year 2024?

If you have ~128 GB of RAM, consider Qwen 3.8 Flash + Freetoken. You'll only get half the tok/s as 27B but the quality is significantly higher than 27B - it beats it solidly in all compared benchmarks (for example, DeepSWE 1.1: 42,2% vs 58.7%).

Grok is a "discount model". It's cheaper than Claude Sonnet yet better than it. Doesn't compare to Fable or Opus, but then again, they're way more expensive models.

Note: I avoid using Grok - not just for the Musk factor, but because there are better options, e.g. GLM-5.3 and Qwen-3.8. Also, if you really want to save money, GLM-5.3 Flash and Qwen-3.8 Flash are amazingly good for their price range.

Sure, but they make big leaps every time they launch. It's not incremental like SpaceX, so it's hard to say how they compare.

They are putting fibre on the poles now. Not just BT, around here we have Cityfibre using the poles for their connections.

To be fair there are advantages to above ground lines. Japan got onto fibre very early because they opened up their above ground infrastructure so that other companies could use the poles for their own cables. It looks messy but they are a couple of decades ahead of the UK for internet access.

They are above ground around here. Had to get them to come and fix the neighbour's cable that was attached to a bracket on my house. The guy took a look at it and said it was too much hassle to get the cherry picker, but if I just cut it myself they would eventually send someone. So I did. And they did. With the cherry picker.

Dyson ran out of good ideas some time ago. Their vacuum cleaners are still good, but overpriced. Even there, they copied the dust detector laser thing from Japanese manufacturers. The stopped making washing machines because they weren't profitable enough, and abandoned their car. Their snot canon, the weird headphones that filter air and blow it in your face, sending respiratory diseases in all directions, never gained much traction in the market.

I doubt these things work very well. Water flossers are in general pretty useless. They dislodge large bits of food, but do little with plaque. You need actual floss to scrub it off.

As much as it pains me to say it, I don't think Blue Origin is that far behind. They just have a different methodology to SpaceX. Instead of failing fast and often while they iterate, Blue Origin does a lot of testing and then a successful launch. So it's very hard to say exactly where they are in comparison to SpaceX, but we will find out in the next few years when they are supposed to deliver the first crewed lunar lander to NASA.

You don't even know what I said.

You know you want to argue.

All you did is ponder, "He sounds like he's on the Other Side, he must believe all those wrong straw men I already knocked down! I know what to do!"

You're not even a thinking creature. You're just responding by mimicking.
