If you’re getting 650 Mbps, all of your hardware is definitely capable of running 1 Gbps, as the test with desktops is showing (you can hardly get more than 950Mbps from 1GBps hardware in reality). If it weren’t, it’d probably run at 100 Mbps.

Read the fine print of the ISP plan to see how the bandwidth is allocated. It may be something like “1000 Mbps total, 700 down/300 up”. In that case, you’re getting what was advertised: about 700 Mbps downlink, and the rest will be uplink. My ISP advertises 1000/50, and they’re true to both, so I get blisteringly fast downlink, but abysmal uplink. A friend of mine has 500/500, which is IMO much better, but that ISP doesn’t have coverage in my building.

Anything of note that Mozilla didn’t already cover? https://foundation.mozilla.org/en/blog/privacy-nightmare-on-wheels-every-car-brand-reviewed-by-mozilla-including-ford-volkswagen-and-toyota-flunks-privacy-test/

Braille isn’t very good for quick discernment. It’s much easier to put differently-shaped buttons together or put buttons into different places.

MediaTek 9400 fits within 10% of Snapdragon 8 Elite, so if you don’t intend to load a custom ROM, I’d say there are options.

I love how you’re totally ignoring 8 existed.

Microsoft has a Windows 11 problem. Staying on Windows 10 is a symptom.

Altman is definitely a tech bro. Nadella is, I’d say, also one, although I’m getting a bit of “How do you do, fellow kids” vibe from him.

Conveniently, the heat from all this power being generated and subsequently used in the data centres doesn’t count as emmissions. Twats.

That’s a great article.

Bought a Panasonic with Android TV about a year or two ago, and used it for a while solely as a screen for my Kodi box, no internet connection. Worked perfectly. The TV’s image quality leaves something to be desired (especially backlight uniformity), though.

With a clear set of criteria, you can easily make this argument that the designer of the discrimination system is culpable because they input discriminatory criteria into the system, I’m with you there.

However, with AI, it may easily happen that unforeseen discriminatory behaviour emerges, in which case I would argue it is indistinguishable in practice whether a computer is purely evaluating criteria or making a decision on its own for the purposes of calling decisions discriminatory.

The same happens e.g. when discovering new proteins using AI. AI comes up with a protein, you confirm it’s better than the previous one, victory. There may be a better one, but that’s not really a concern here. Same can’t be said when targetting a group of people with repressive measures.

Yes, the United States Schutzstaffel.

I still fail to see how people expect LLMs to reason. It’s like expecting a slice of pizza to reason. That’s just not what it does.

Although Porsche managed to make a car with the engine in the most idiotic place win literally everything on Earth, so I guess I’m leaving a little possibility that the slice of pizza will outreason GPT 4.

Join us. Thrive.

This guy is an absolute lunatic.

“Gimme all of the world’s money several times over for this fancy T9 that I’m playing with.”

If someone wrote a cartoon villain using his quotes, it would be dismissed as unbelievable and rubbish.

Easily Ubuntu. Despite its general wonkiness and kind of a shit attitude towards upstreams, at least they’re not shoving mandatory tracking into all of your orifices, and aren’t integrating AI into everything because fuck you, you’ll like it.

It’s kind of a big deal if you can’t legally do this (and as it happens, you can’t where they did it) by implying you can circumvent the law this way.

Huh, never thought of that that way.

It’s not like it’s not been rolling out features and opting people in without telling them…
