And your point?
I guess I thought my point was clear in my first sentence. “This isn’t a propaganda win.”
Of course they needed a pretext and this turned out to fit the bill.
They don’t need a pretext either. They’ve already enacted draconian policies against monitory groups based upon race and against LGBTQ folks. They needed no rational pretext for those. They didn’t need one for any other horrible things they’re going to do in the future. They would do those things anyway.
They know how to play the propaganda game.
This isn’t a propaganda win. Its simply a pretext for what they wanted and had the power to do anyway. Propaganda win would be if there was universal popular support for Kirk, and there wasn’t before and simply isn’t now. Most people didn’t even know who Kirk was before this.
If you don’t vote for her, you’re endorsing her statement against women holding office. Checkmate liberals! /s
You first have to prove me wrong on Huawei and ZTE claims before you get me to consider any bias.
Are you serious? A company’s primary goal is to sell its product or service. If a company can cite any reasons for customers to NOT choose the competitor’s products (legitimate or not reasons) they have an interest in doing so. I don’t know what more obvious conflict of interest could possibly exist.
No argument with that statement, but Nokia’s calls for action here are not impartial.
Nokia isn’t wrong, but they’re also not unbiased as Nokia is a primary supplier of 5G gear.
There’s a pronunciation guide in the original documentation, and that didn’t end the debate.
Humans are even more horrible that this first glance suggests. Imagine, one day, the debate truly ends and a single pronunciation for GIF is universally established and recognized by everyone. A group of humans will start to intentionally mispronounce it (or misspell it) just for the aggravation it will generate in others or for their own amusement.
This is where the meme-like behavior of deliberately misspelling the popular phrase (at the time) “all correct” as “oll korrect”. This was later abbreviated as “o.k.” and then eventually “ok”. A phrase we likely use dozens or hundreds of times a day is meme-speak from 1839. source
How much of the hardware and software you use must be registered, requires internet access to work, a proprietary app? You don’t actually own anything that fits in those categories and they can be taken away from you at the manufacturer’s whim.
While there are certainly commercial versions of those that fall into those categories, there are many that don’t.
As I said, "good foundation for future growth, but even then you can buy boards and even a couple of laptops right now with RISC-V CPUs:
Yes, you can definitely do all those things, but they’re far outside of the realm of a normal consumer, and unless you know, to look for those things. It’s a lot harder to find.
I’m confused by your premise then. If you’re saying “Today’s consumer electronics can’t be tinkered because they require specialized knowledge.” I’d argue that was always the case. How much tinkering could be done to an Atari 2600 from 1977?
How much tinkering would be done to a VHS VCR from 1989 without specialized knowledge?
These are prime examples of prior generations of consumer electronics.
Thought of this the other day. I bet a lot of us are like this, because in today’s world a lot of things we used to tinker with are gone (electronics are made to be single use and unfixable, cars are proprietary and can rarely be modified or worked on without many many thousands of dollars now, etc).
I feel the exact opposite. Today I can tinker in ways I never ever could before for two reasons:
When I started out the cheapest computer was today’s equivalent of about $2000. To be able to buy a whole computer in a Raspberry Pi zero for $10 is insanely awesome! Electronic components from Radio Shack were few and very expensive. Test equipment like oscilloscopes were simply out-of-reach financially. Now I have a handheld one I bought for $200.
This is an amazing time to be alive with tinkering!
Open source hardware is the bigger issue
We have more open source hardware today than has ever existed. Prior to RISC-V boards you can buy right now every single CPU available was closed source. Further, RISC-V is cheap which means it is a good foundation for future growth and scaling.
…or they tell other non-parent adults what they can do or say around their children.
I absolutely agree that certain language and behavior shouldn’t be around young children, but then that means there must be child-free places allowed for adults to do these things with other adults.
Isn’t the real joke that that interns aren’t really getting hired anymore?
Understanding how LLMs actually work that each word is a token (possibly each letter) with a calculated highest probably of the word that comes next, this output makes me think the training data heavily included social media or pop culture specifically around “teen angst”.
I wonder if in context training would be helpful to mask the “edgelord” training data sets.
Its on the side. You can kind of see it in your picture. I have a C64 within arms reach.
Bonus points if you had a mouse to use with GEOS:
I would think TSMC is in the drivers seat here. They could say “not interested in intel, thanks anyway. Tariff away if you want, but we are the only ones that can make the chips you want so you’ll pay for it anyway”.
TSMC could also counter threaten to close down the newly built TSMC fabs built in the USA as retaliation if new tariffs are put in place.
The workarounds are interesting: link
Both workarounds would appear to do stuff that retriggers HAL detection. So something about the config must get broken, and only HAL redetection is needed to bring the VMs back to life. Now I’m really curious what the underlying bug/problem is.
If you hit an action button on the remote, I’m guessing it would send it to a phone associated with your amazon account. Is that not the case?
