I cannot believe that Microsoft is baffled why people HATE Windows 11, so much--or maybe it's just that people are HATING Microsoft.

Check it for yourself. Have 64GB of memory? Still Windows uses VM, and you pay for the SSD--all to make it seem less bloated.

We have already witness too much AI pollution and fact distortion in every type of humanity's information.

Let's see...Microware OS9 did real-time multitasked with 64k, and RT68 did it with a few thousand bytes on the MC6800. Ref: https://github.com/linuxha/RT6... and https://github.com/nitros9proj...

It reads like, "I think my office chair is sentient."

How much did Microsoft pay for a bit of product placement--that bit them in the...

I run Mint on all of my systems, 2 duel-boot Windows 11 from separate drives. I have some games; I should be more adventurous. I use Wine for Irfanview and 7Zip, and I am...getting used to it. Proton is supposed to be a good thing; I hope all the fixes are open.

I generally shut off shader cache's. I have a Samsung 840, that has been used for video editing. Oddly, it still works. Although shader caches are a pittance compared to video editing, every little bit wears SSD's out. BTW, the 4TB Samsung 990 Series NVMe I was looking at six months ago, went up from $385 to $621. In the end--even excessive logging wears SSD's, as a whole block is written for even a one byte update.

There doesn't seem to be much to this story. As far as I can tell, they haven't done any scientific or even casual tests to clone open source or closed source. It's vapor ware.

Then why is the Kim family still in power in North Korea?

The types of neural networks used in these classifiers are not LLMs. The expense and difficulty of collecting an image set is going to far outweigh the compute time used to train them.

We are questioning whether the AI is creating something new, or whether it's just copying the original.

It's a question because the AI was trained on the original. Clean Room Design is a well-known engineering technique. It's not a problem when cloning closed source if the AI wasn't trained on that closed source code.

There is no reason why billionaires should have a separate lawset.

It's relatively easy to setup VPN over SSH, that might work if you need it at some time in the future.
