All the Gen-Zers made me get it because they were loathe to communicate on the elderly platform of Twitter (even though they were all on Periscope). But of course, now they’ve largely moved on to god knows where and I still throw down the occasional sunset pic for the ones that show up a couple times a week.

She would have been amazing as a president, but if you really want to trigger a red wave of insane Trump voters foaming at the mouth about “her emails!” bringing back Hillary would definitely be the way to do it.

BitWarden provides some encrypted storage on their paid tiers. I think it’s very small, like 1GB, but it’s E2E.

Apple iCloud storage is actually E2E too if you turn on Advanced Data Protection. (Note that not all iCloud features are E2E, like email, for example.) And the price is pretty comparable too. Naturally this works a lot better if you’re on a Mac, but just FYI.

I totally agree that both seem to imply intent, but IMHO hallucinating is something that seems to imply not only more agency than an LLM has, but also less culpability. Like, “Aw, it’s sick and hallucinating, otherwise it would tell us the truth.”

Whereas calling it a bullshit machine still implies more intentionality than an LLM is capable of, but at least skews the perception of that intention more in the direction of “It’s making stuff up” which seems closer to the mechanisms behind an LLM to me.

I also love that the researchers actually took the time to not only provide the technical definition of bullshit, but also sub-categorized it too, lol.

TBH, I support him more now than I did in the 2020 election, having seen him in office. He’s working the system to get some stuff done, even with the clown show congress he is presiding over. Is he perfect? No. But no elected official is ever going to be perfectly aligned with what everyone wants, unfortunately. Maybe we can get AOC to run in 2028?

But yes, the alternative of Trump basically dismantling the government and replacing it with some crazed shitshow is definitely a motivating factor too.

This is kinda genius, lol

I would absolutely send him an email to the effect of

“Per our multiple verbal conversations, this is just to serve as notice that, in my professional opinion, your refusal to allow me to upgrade a system at risk of multiple security vulnerabilities on a platform that is no longer supported is a risk that you are choosing to accept against my advise.”

with a list of known major vulnerabilities attached if possible.

That way at least if this comes back to bite the company on the ass, he can’t say “Well he never told me this was a problem!”

Yeah, it’s a pretty frustrating time to be leaning left. And given the chaos Trump would unleash, it’s not like there is any choice at all about whether or not to vote for Biden… 😿

Yes, and I voted for Bernie when he ran and I would absolutely vote for AOC if/when she does run. Just… the choices in this election cycle are wanna-be, half-demented dictator-for-life vs a “moderate” Democrat who, while he’s gotten a surprising amount done, isn’t exactly renowned for pushing the corporations hard on climate change.

Why the hell can’t we have candidates this awesome on the ballot here in the US?! 😿

To me this sounds like either your GPU acceleration is off or is choking somehow. I’d start with checking your GPU acceleration settings and updating your drivers if they aren’t the latest. If that doesn’t work, maybe try FF with a fresh config to see if it’s a setting you’ve enabled?

I saw the Marques Brownlee review of this and I have no idea why they actually released it to market? It looked so wildly undercooked.

Let’s do it slightly differently, let’s make the mandatory retirement age for political office the median life expectancy age for the entire country. If the politicians, etc can manage to make everyone live longer, they can hold office longer.

Similarly, take away their separate and different medical coverage and put them on the same Medicare system everyone else in the country has to use.

Huh. I used it pretty much since the start and I certainly don’t recall it being that bad? Like you got a lot of relevant content up front usually.

All we want is 1990s Google, guys. That’s really all we want. None of this AI BS that kind find a country in Africa that starts with a K, just Google without the evil enshitification layer on top.

This is the stupidest thing they could possibly do. How in the hell would Trump be any better on that one specific issue?

Meanwhile, on every other issue he’s going to be a demented (literally) nightmare tearing down the foundations of democracy in any way he can so he can keep power this time.

EDIT: Meanwhile…

But was it an escaped boomslang snake?

Browsers love it!

Practically anything you write will execute without all that scope and well formed statements nonsense.

Mind you, number 2 is also its biggest flaw as well, but…

True, just observing that it’s happening much faster now than it did for the preceding iteration of Windows.

The enshitification of Windows compared to macOS has really accelerated a lot recently it seems. I work with both daily and it is weird and irritating how much extra crap keeps getting hurled willy-nilly into Windows updates this last year.
