30 some years ago?
Everything was just more fractured. Instead of a handful of options for social media, there were thousands of forums on their own websites. ICQ handled IMs and away messages was basically twitter. Before YouTube/spotify everyone used Winamp and internet radio streams for music, you didn’t have songs on demand, but compared to local “real” radio or MTV it was an overwhelming about of choice.
It’s honestly not that much different though.
Trolls trying to argue in bad faith.
The brand new accounts that keep asking this same question over and over again?
Yeah. They’re absolutely trolling this sub…
It won’t last forever though…
A lot of the non-upgradability is the pursuit of smallest form factor. But then everyone throws a case on it anyways. Miniaturization has diminishing returns and we hit that long ago with laptops.
Eventually we’ll hit it with phones, and then it’s just a matter of time till a solid “base” with swapable components come out. There’s been a couple already, but they still require a sacrifice of size or speed/power.
That’s why manufacturers are trying to push us to watches or glasses. They need to shrink the form factor to keep up the (insanely profitable) strategy of selling a brand new unit every 2 years.
Apple aggressively throttled CPUs when new models came out.
They claimed it was due to age of batteries and to prevent overheating. But then Samsungs started exploding and I think people just let it go.
Not sure if they still do it or not.
If you’re actually being sincere, you might want to ask people how to articulate your view, you’d have to let them know what your view is though. Or ask for peoples opinion on the question.
It’s trump…
If you’re trying to argue he’s loyal and won’t switch sides in an instant, well, I’d be shocked anyone but a trump supporter would say that.
trump supports whoever gave the largest bribe, or the most recent substantial bribe. Hed turn on Israel in a heartbeat if it was personally profitable
Since nothing is going to stand in their way, how can we make sure they are held accountable for generations to come?
All that needs done is America threatening to cut off funding.
If Obama hadn’t have done that, this would have all happened a decade ago
Biden openly said he’d never do that, and talked shit as VP when Obama did. Kamala said she’d be the same as Biden.
trump, depends on if someone bribes him more.
But if America gets a progressive president next with the courage to say “genocide is bad” and actually cut off Israel…
That will make Israel stop electing genocidal maniacs. The only reason they can vote for people like Bibi, is knowing no matter what they have the backing of America.
Without that, they wouldn’t constantly be attacking other countries.
It’s like if you had a annoying little brother that picks on everyone despite being small and weak, because if shit goes down, you protect them
Sometimes, you got to let your little bro learn what happens when no one else fights their fights for them…
Driving the news: Sirens sounded across Israel on Thursday night. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz declared a special state of emergency across the entire country.
“Following the State of Israel’s preemptive strike against Iran, a missile and drone attack against the state of Israel and its civilian population is expected in the immediate future,” Katz said.
Who would have guessed Israel would surprise attack another country and then immediately play the victim…
Like, why did you manufacture this intractable problem by mandating clothing and shaming nudity in the first place?
You think humans invented clothing because of shame?
That’s completely backwards, we invented clothing for protection, and not seeing everything all the time led to shame when someone could see us.
Like, I’m pretty sure hermit crabs feel something similar to shame when they don’t have a shell, they need something to drive them to not only protect themselves, but to ensure they can reproduce and raise their young. That’s why humans instinctually get weird about exposed genitals and boobs, those are the most important parts of a human from an evolutionary perspective.
I get what you’re trying to say, it’s just you’re going about it completely backwards
It’s not for the right reason…
Beta was better than VHS, but Beta didn’t have porn, so everyone got VCRs.
Meta is so big they could get sued for letting users openly make porn like this, but they don’t want everyone using the ones who can make porn. Because that’s the biggest threat to their advantage in the market.
If Meta thought they could get away with it, they’d dive dick first into porn.
but why don’t manufacturers of basic cars just put a fancy-looking exterior onto them?
“Kit cars” are a thing…
Not sure what’s popular these days, but for a while people were putting Shelby Cobra bodies on Miatas.
It’s way more than a Miata, but way less than an authentic Shelby.
So people who just care about the looks have been doing this for decades now.
But when it happens as a production, people don’t buy it because other people recognize it for what it is, look at the PT Cruiser.
So if a couple people do it, it passes as expensive. If a lot do it, it comes off as tacky and becomes a joke.
if they are on lemmy, that to me points towards them wanting to establish a community here. why? no idea.
To get attention…
Commenting on their posts to tell them they’re wrong, upvoting people who already have, or even downvoting the post is all “engagement” which shoves the problematic community down every one else’s feed. Even making those “community spotlights” fairly regularly.
I mean, you’re flat out saying you don’t understand, I’m putting effort in to help you explain why not to feed the trolls…
This isn’t new, this is basic internet literacy. They might not even be MAGA, they just know if they say there are, a steady stream of people will go to their communities, get banned, and then complain.
Which just draws more people into the cycle
Do you honestly not understand that?
I tend to agree but I’m sick of giving stupid people a voice
You’re not “giving them a voice”…
You’re feeding the trolls
Like, it’s fucking Lemmy, you’re not out there protecting millions of people from misinformation. You’re the reason they’re doing it in the first place
Without people like you, they wouldn’t still be doing it.
So I’m gonna take my own advice
It’s not exactly a secret, but neither is that .world really wants to federate with everyone.
You can block the whole instance yourself, as well as individual communities.
But anytime you see one about “conservatism” it’s gonna be a troll community. Either trolling everyone else, or to troll the handful of conservatives that are on here
Don’t get hung up on idiots using the internet, just block them and move on
if you feed it the rules of chess and the dimensions of the board it should be able to “play in its head”.
You’d save a lot of time typing, if you spent a little more reading…
Yeah, but it’s chess…
The LLM doesn’t have to imagine a board, if you feed it the rules of chess and the dimensions of the board it should be able to “play in its head”.
For a human to have that kind of working memory would be a genius level intellect and years of practice at the game.
But human working memory is shit compared to virtually every other animal. This and processing speed is supposed to be AI’s main draw.
Although the chatbot had been given a “baseline board” to learn the game and identify pieces, it kept mixing up rooks and bishops, misread moves, and “repeatedly lost track” of where its pieces were. To make matters worse, as Caruso explained, ChatGPT also blamed Atari’s icons for being “too abstract to recognize” — but when he switched the game over to standard notation, it didn’t perform any better.
For an hour-and-a-half, ChatGPT “made enough blunders to get laughed out of a 3rd grade chess club” while insisting over and over again that it would win “if we just started over,” Caruso noted. (And yes, it’s kind of creepy that the chatbot apparently referred to itself and the human it was interfacing with as “we.”)
It’s fucking insane it couldn’t keep track of a board…
And it’s concerning how confident it is that it will work, because the idiots asking it stuff will believe it. It’ll keep failing and keep saying next time will work, because it’s built to maximize engagement.
I’m guessing the other person meant “the way it should be”
That’s a pretty safe guess considering they explicitly said that…
But I don’t think I’m going to make much ground explaining to you why they’re wrong either
He’s retiring after the end of this term, around the time he announced (I think) is when he kept “freezing” in public…
But he’s back out of his shell, and seems to have a reverse Fettermen situation going on…

But McConnell has always been about the long game, he’s spent an entire lifetime setting up a conservative coup of the US government…
And then trump showed up out of nowhere and has zero patience or planning and is blowing the whole thing up by acting early.
It’s possible McConnell isnt pissed about what’s happening, he’s just mad they didn’t wait another decade or so till the coup would be a sure thing. But out of all the Senate Republicans, he’s by far been the most critical of this admin.
