Until they restructure the way OpenAI did.

You’ve gotten a lot of good suggestions, and this comment might get buried but I wanted to let you know that I was there 20 years ago. The future looked bleak, I had a shitty job that was sucking my life force away… one day as I was walking into work through an alley I saw someone had left a shopping cart there. I had the thought that I could just grab that cart and keep walking… turn my back on my former life and just live my way. I passed that cart for 3 weeks… then I realized that I either need to grab the cart or find a different plan for my life. I then looked at my options, found a career path, and then started working toward that plan. It was about 3 years of very hard work, with very little social life. But I stuck with my plan, got a better job and stayed on that career path. There have been setbacks, but looking back those were just blips.

My newborn is now 8 years old and I still think holding her is the greatest feeling in the world.

If they are quality (or even relevant) shares or content then it’s a good thing. Well, for us as content consumers, maybe not a healthy thing for them to be constantly online - but who here is going to cast that first stone?

I’m in the Indianapolis area and just got off the phone with my home owners insurance company about damage to my roof. They are attributing it to Hurricane Helene.

I’m in the Indianapolis area, and we do have public transit… though I don’t know why.

And there are no Indians in Indiana.

To the tune of Home Again In Indiana:

There are no Indians, in In-diana Most were removed, through treaties And the Del-a-ware, had no care went to Miss-ou-ri, with ease The Shaw-nee screwed, the Mi-am-i With the treaty, of, Fort Wayne William Hen-ry Harr-i-son versus Te-cumseh The In-dian’s loss, became, whitey’s gain Now there are no Indians in In-diana

I find a young doctor in a suburb almost 10 years ago. He’s been great and he listens to me, has no problem taking my suggestions into consideration, and he often admits when he doesn’t know something and will literally Google it right there in the room. It took as while to find someone I like, but it was worth looking.

Honestly I’ve mostly been playing around with image generators and learning how to write a good prompt. But LLMs are where I see real value and would love to learn more about self-hosting one, and custom training it.

I find it interesting that the M2 is better for LLM than the M4 will be… what’s the reason for this?

Yeah, I hate Discord too but that has been the best place I’ve found the best information, but even then it doesn’t really feel like a community.

I’m running on an Apple M1 at the moment, likely to upgrade to an M4 when it is released.

I’ve spent the past 2 years looking for the open source AI community, but haven’t really found it. I’ve tinkered with Stable Diffusion and Ollama and I want to learn more, but haven’t found the right places online yet.

Stream also had help from Palworld - that’s what I was playing during that time.

Which is exactly where it should be… having regional phone companies sucked. Having 1 phone company sucked. Having 3-4 is the least sucky, but we have real competition.

Before tearing apart Google and Amazon, I’df much prefer we have 3-4 choices for internet providers (unless we can turn them into utilities, then we should do that).

Isn’t this what the United States did, just without the genocide?

yes, I know they too have committed genocide but I’m referring specifically to this action

Hi, I also know my industry, with over a quarter century of experience in Fortune 500 companies. The old motto of IT used to be ‘if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’ and then salespeople found out that fear is a great sales tool.

When proper precautions are taken and a risk analysis is performed there is no reason that old operating systems and software can’t continue to be used in production environments. I’ve seen many more systems taken down from updates gone wrong than from running ‘unsupported’ software. Just because a system is old, doesn’t mean it is vulnerable, often the opposite is true.

So, because you don’t like bots, they shouldn’t be made available to others who appreciate them? Fuck that.

The beauty of Lemmy is that you are in control of what you see, but that makes that you have to control it. Stop trying to dictate that I can’t have bots from instances that allow them.

The letter said that after one Microsoft outreach on July 22, a “Delta employee replied, saying ‘all good. Cool will let you know and thank you.’ Despite this assessment that things were ‘all good,’ public reports indicate that Delta canceled more than 1,100 flights on July 22 and more than 500 flights on July 23.”

In order to do that the US government would need to heavily subsidize EVs the way the Chinese government does.

I support this… in my view the Chinese government is putting its money out there in order to get more people into an EV. The US should match their efforts.

Will this mean that no one will be able to pay to be the default search, or just that Google will no longer be allowed?

Honestly, Google is still the best free search even though it isn’t as good as it used to be… and if this ruling means that no one can pay to be the default then Google will still win based on name recognition and performance. Plus they will save money by not needing to give it to Apple.

The real loser here is Apple who is going to lose a fairly large revenue stream.

trump?
