What really grinds my ears:

Hyperlinks about alledged tools that are just links to another article about said tool.

Different context but the first time I heard about this it was touted as the future for VR

I am not really talking about being hacked but about anyone but you having more control over your system then you.

Maybe in your case thats very little information but I am a tech hobbyist and if i do not have full control and knowledge about every aspect of a device i bought, do i really own it?

If a consumer can’t fully own it, it shouldnt be sold as such. I considered such deeply unethical and damaging to the future potential of technology.

If your library is on other platform like gog, epic, amazon or off platform .exe you can use heroic launcher and for most stuff it works just as well.

For some games there is a little more learning curve because you have to translate custom steam configurations found on protondb to do the same thing in heroic but overall you actually have way more control then steam.

The only reason “id think twice” is if you play lots of games with anticheat which does not work on every distro (like arch btw).

Remember how China is a police state and Chinese companies have to provide state access to all their data which is why you should not use Chinese technology.

The U.S is maybe 2 thin documents different in how it’s setup. If you use U.S products then privacy from the US gov is an illusion.

Did you pay for copilot yourself or did your job provide you with a license?

The enterprise tier of copilot is supposed to have access to such data, though it can be managed trough internal policies.

Ask it to summarize your latests emails In outlook/teams messages. If it has access to those (and this is intended) then its near certainty also setup to know who is who in the organization.

Allegedly, the data is “safe” because enterprises is supposedly not harvested and used for training… which makes me conclude non enterprise use absolutely is.

Allegedly because thats what Microsoft claims and on paper it looks legal. But these tech companies never seem to actually follow the law to such a degree that any claims that unmistakably seem to fit within the legal framework automatically are sus to me.

Psa: the reason Microsoft makes these tools linux friendly is because the know thats where the developers are at and they want them to stay familiar with their tools.

It also lowers the amount of fuss developers make when work forced them to use powershell etc because at least they can remote control and script from linux.

The message in detroid become human seems to be we would go full extermination out of fear of losing our spot on top of the foodchain. Which does seem plausible.

What i really didnt like though was how androids were designed to suffer

They had no ability to shut themselves off, if you kept abusing them they react and respond like real people. They where forced to stay sentient in their single body.

This is also why they had to experience standing in the back of the bus just for the narrative. Could have just send a drone. Could also just shut down the body while traveling and do something in cyberspace instead.

If there is one thing certain about digital “life” its that it wont have the same restrictions as us and a body is optional and basically a set of clothes.

While i did enjoy Detroid it was designed around its own pre set narrative rather then explore what could emerge organicaly if machines became sentient. I could not really take it serious because of that.

Ai can be way more then just a single llm though.

Agi and Asi still mean human level and beyond human level ai.

Wether the concepts are archievable in our lifetime is an entirely different matter.

Whispers “try proxmox”

I bet this rhetoric goes so hard, the moment we reach an economicly usefull “agi” it will be all hands on board to stop it from going ASI.

They specifically want ai that can follow orders without thinking for themselves.

What a stat.

Sometimes i go 50 times further then other times.

It kinda depends on where i am going.

Some llms have a deepsearch feature where it goes trough 400+ webpages taking multiple minutes. But usually i just need it to rewrite part of an email.

You dont need to limit yourself to just one, feel free to diversify your presence.

But for a real answer: The smaller ones; The smaller the more respecfull they feel.

Though more users does demonstrate capabilities. Not every server is fast or stable.

We would like to contact you for job offer in the same role as your current.

We cant pay you as much per hour but we can give you more hours to match it.

This is also a good beginner way to learn about self hosting in docker.

Freetube can make a great backup for when google inevitably breaks something.

And for thise videos you really cant miss there is always yt-dlp scripted to download a channels latests video on a schedule straight to jellyfin of course.

I have not visited the youtube website in more then a year.

Mfw i have been going into individual steam properties to select a proton version for all my games for the last 2 years.

For a country the size of the us a hunderd is a very small amount.

There are troubled teen services where parents pay to have their “problem” kids “legaly” abducted to send to reeducation camps. Suprise suprise they return with ptsd and tell stories of both torture and other abuse. Those “legal” institutions can have 100+ kids enrolled any given time.

I am also sure you heard of Epstein. These horrors definitely exist on very big scales with huge network as fucked up as that is.
