Mini should probably start by test driving their cars.

This is a very bad framing. We (as a group) need to stop ranking distros based off ease of use, and start considering actual use cases.

For example; I would never use Arch for anything I use to make money. Rolling distros aren’t well equipped for absolute top level reliability that I’m looking for to do my job or run my servers.

It is, however useful for people who love to experiment, want the bleeding edge of software, and are less uptime dependent.

Furthermore, kali is built almost purely as a pen testing environment, and not for generic use.

I invested in some rechargeable NiMH AAs, and AAAs. Now sometimes I think i prefer some things with old school batteries just because of how convenient it is. Granted, that system wouldn't work well for my headphones, or my phone. But seems just fine for the odd remote control, kitchen gadget or portable lamp.

Why is eARC a scam? Doesn’t it carry higher audio bitrates than optical?

I’m wondering if this is a play for a future bailout. OpenAI knows they are fucked; and instead of just going away like most companies do when they fail, they are embedding themselves in the government to secure a bailout under the guise of a critical defence vendor.

Furthermore, I’m not convinced the researchers and critical personnel will work for a company that does this. I think we’re about to see the biggest jumping of a ship so far in the industry.

Ah, yeah, the kind of cooking our household does is usually pretty strong favour wise (lots of South Asian cooking), it’s probably why neither my wife or I have ever noticed it.

Maybe if when make Italian food we should use it :)

In fairness, I’m not sure anyone knows if bay leaves even do anything.

I think you’re missing the point. The idea isn’t that leaving Netflix would affect discord; but rather that we should tie an exodus from discord to the rest of the de-cloud movement.

In other words, quitting discord won’t solve the root cause of why discord went to shit. The root cause are cartel-like cloud companies that are trying to gain leverage over society as large. The only way to reasonably solve it is to stop participating.

To be fair, I’m not saying “AGI” didn’t exist before, I’m just saying it wasn’t used very wildly because at the time “AI” and “AGI” were otherwise synonymous.

I mean I guess if they distributed movies on thumb drives it would be more convenient. But optical discs are used for a very good reason: they are extremely dense for the price.

Key difference, what is called AI in science fiction isn’t the same as the AI we see today. These companies just adopted the term AI from science fiction as a marketing strategy. Not because it’s actually representative.

Some people are now having to clarify AGI, rather than just AI, because the term has got so diluted.
