I put an ssd in a laptop from 2003, it boots to desktop on antix just as fast as my T14 running opensuse.

When this laptop was running XP spinning rust, it took 5 minutes to get to desktop, 10 minutes to do anything useful. SSDs have made that possible, pretty much nothing to do with anything else.

My dad had a C64 that I'd play around with, and I can confirm, it booted in seconds. Loading a program was a different matter.

I know right? Like, how would one even get within a few feet of one, let alone a bare one in the wild to take a photo of it. They're sooo skittish.

Damn, she was ready to go toe-to-toe with that guy.

And the award for ugliest graph goes toooo...

If it worked out, the idle Windows 11 RAM usage would’ve been around 4.8GB

That's still a lot

..."We don't just dump production applications in $HOME like crazy people"

Hey, I don't dump them in home, I test them in home and never move them.

Wow, I like angine de poitrine, but they aren't doing anything that "no one has done before" and they aren't "playing with neurobiology and physics".

They're some math rock guys having fun with micro tones, a loop pedal, and papier mache outfits.

Bro's got multiple, hour+ long, videos about various types of heat pumps.

Saturday morning: "Incus and podman seem interesting. I bet I could swap everything over while the family is out this afternoon"

Sunday evening: "Dad, when will the lights work again?"

"Black touch yellow, kill a fellow"

This happened last year. This isn't a new occurrence, I can't see anything referencing anything new except maybe the lawsuits.

Edit: never mind, I just skimmed, saw lawsuits section, and checked sources, there aren't even any lawsuits referenced in this

Open source developers are just like you and me. They'll get fed up with the bullshit and start developing things they need with the resources they have, just like they've always done.

I don't need to reboot, I can leave it on however long I want. I just don't want to figure out which services need restarting, so they all get restarted.

Almost, it's "a ton of money is charged for this minimally useful thing made by the lowest bidder"

The cordless phone was a 900MHz radio, not processor.

@UniversalRecord@discuss.online I noticed that your sources are the front pages of several space agencies, but no actual articles. The image appears to be an AI generated image of VLA, when there are tons of images available to use. Can you provide some better sources and images in your articles if you're going to claim the articles are based on fact?

I honestly thought this was a joke before reading the article.

Here's what he said with more of the transcript, since everyone seems to be afraid of anything larger than 5 second sound bites:

And again, most people would stand there at 9 o’clock in the evening and say I want to thank you very much, and they go off to some other life. But I said something’s wrong here, something is really wrong, can have happened.

And we fight. We fight like hell. And if you don’t fight like hell, you’re not going to have a country anymore.

That sounds like encouraging a riot to me.

I see this as proof of how bad LLMs actually are. You have an AI trained on essentially humanity's collective programming library. Languages of machines and computers. The result should be ungodly and near perfection. If there was any semblance of understanding in AI, it should be revealed in it's capability to produce code.

Although... I can definitely see Microsoft thinking that their code is the example of perfection and training copilot on that rather than github.

23 year old thinkpad with 2GB DDR here. I went for antix. My greatest pleasure was putting in an m.2 ssd in an ide adapter.

It took me months to find ram that actually worked.
