Fuck AI@lemmy.world•Did they enshitificate web search to boost ai?English
6·15 hours agoI like to think so.
The entire premise developing agi isn’t about a “new scientific breakthrough” as much as it is a way to surveil and profile people.
with web search, you have the option to opt out of cookies, which basically doesn’t allow trackers to track you on websites. were not even taking into account adblockers such as UblockOrigin or privacy badger, which has been an ongoing war with big tech.
Anyways, with LLM’s, they have control of your prompts, they have access to your account and they can target advertisements or sell your data to the highest bidder.
So, when google announced that search will be depreciated and replaced with their Gemini AGI, that to me was the first real indicator that their intentionally making search shitty to boost usage of their AI.

61·1 day agoon a abstract level, he is correct, using AI has the same effect as drinking alcohol which has the same effect of doing meth.
the people who use AI, if it were to all be taken away, would have the same problems (on an abstract level) as say a recovering alcoholic. As for those who haven’t relied on it as much, you could think of it as a temporary blackout.

well, generally these can range from a few hundred dollars to several thousand or 10s of thousands of dollars. The ones we use in my university are about the 10s of thousands range.
That said, you can find some for 100,000 to 200,000
signal generator - $2000
oscilioscope - $200000
nope, and that confirms it.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Arch Linux AUR Under Another Wave Of Malicious Packages, Package Adoptions HaltedEnglish
1·4 days agoit’s not managing, as you seem to imply, it’s just hosting.
Arch hosts the AUR repository, the maintenance of the packages is on the developers who developed the package.
If someone sneaks in spyware or malware inside the makepkg, that isn’t arch’s fault, that’s the maintainers fault of the makepkg.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Arch Linux AUR Under Another Wave Of Malicious Packages, Package Adoptions HaltedEnglish
1·4 days agomore importantly, they don’t recommend that users use the AUR repository (that isn’t to say they are opposed to it). Some advice they have given is to review what the dependencies are before executing the package with an AUR helper or manually.
Just to make a point, there is a surplus of these non officially supported (from OS developers) repositories, such as the terra repository for fedora. It has the same vulnerability as AUR, and yet that is targeted for new users.
Much like how fedora doesn’t officially support Terra, arch doesn’t support AUR. There is a reason why it’s called AUR (arch user repository) over ASR (arch supported repository). AUR entails that it is not supported by arch.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Male ejaculation travels at an avg speed of 28 mph. How come it doesn't blow the back of a woman or male neck out or cause other serious damage at that speed?English
1·5 days agoI mean were talking about skin and tissue it will bend and stretch when it comes in contact to pressure. Also energy depends on mass not just velocity/speed. It would need to have a large enough energy while being precise enough to not be distributed over a surface to penetrate and damage tissue.
do you know why bullets penetrate tissue, its because it has a large enough kinetic energy fixated on a very small region of area. Similarly light that is emitted by a radioactive source penetrate and damage skin cells from the same principles.

22·6 days agodon’t forgot signal processing. Complex number theory is used a lot when it comes down to Fourier transforms of discrete or continuous functions.
but yea the naming convention of “imaginary numbers” is pretty bad, we did the same thing for negative numbers (we called it imaginary) when people couldn’t comprehend of a negative quantity.
negative numbers are defined from a conservative system, basically a gain/loss relationship: if I have 2 apples and I give away 1 to a friend, I have 1 apple left, that loss – that apple I gave to a friend – is the negative quantity. For imaginary numbers, we don’t really have a way to comprehend an imaginary quantity; what does it mean that I have sqrt(-1) apples.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Framework Laptop 13 Pro: Aiming To Be One Of The Best Upgradeable Linux Laptops Review - PhoronixEnglish
22·10 days agomy point is whether it is fatigued or it stopped working as a result of a large enough electrical impedance that current can’t pass through or god knows some other reason. You would have replaced the motherboard either way because of 10 other motherboard/component failures. in which case, buy a new laptop.
thinkpads are rapidly depreciative. They approximately depreciate linearly compared to a theoretically and practically non-depreciative product; The longer they are used (or just held in stock), the cheaper they become. I’ve found used thinkpads that are worth the same amount for a same spec’d framework motherboards. until integrated circuits become cheaper your just purchasing a more expensive thinkpad that’s easier to understand (from an upgrade perspective) for the user.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Framework Laptop 13 Pro: Aiming To Be One Of The Best Upgradeable Linux Laptops Review - PhoronixEnglish
31·10 days agoI mean, sure, but there needs to be a port the framework modules connect to. the framework uses the same, soldiered down, USB-C connection for the adapters to connect to. So the same issue arises as with a thinkpad and every other laptop.
for some reason mine just shows diagonal elements 1/0 when I do inv(myself) * myself.

motherboards generally limit the amount of voltage that you can get from the power supply, generally that’s 20V. if that component is broken or fully degraded, your best bet is to buy another laptop.
that said, try updating the BIOS if it hasn’t been updated recently. It sounds like this is a low-level controller issue then an actual hardware issue.
just go used on ebay, and if you prefer to do a project, buy a “broken” laptop in some area, and you can save 30% from retail cost. I bought an Asus zephyrus g14 (2023) for $500 because the n-key didn’t work, once after updating the bios I had a perfectly functional $1000 to $1500 laptop (if I wanted to resell).

Fuck AI@lemmy.world•Google just had its first negative cash flow quarter due to massive "AI" spendingEnglish
8·14 days agoyour young self was right. the inventors of pagerank are pretty fucking cool, they also made an entire book on it, technology back then wasn’t just smoke and mirrors if you understood linear algebra. Main note: they were employees of google.
Tech companies did cool shit when it wasn’t about collecting data and profiling users. now they’re ruthless scums trying to find by any means how to capitalize off of you.
I’m sorry, that’s too many going up my anus.
