  • It's not a terribly complicated idea, really. You can train it to output formatted calculations when presented with a problem, then something in the middle watches for those and inserts the solution for it behind the scenes. You might even trigger another generation to let it appear more smooth when presented to the user.

  • Man, Microsoft really is just smelling the blood in the water and going on the attack.

    I'm wondering if they're aiming to bankrupt OpenAI and rob their talent, then buy the assets they've created for pennies on the dollar instead of spending half a billion training their own GPT4

  • Man, I already had a hard time justifying my YouTube Premium subscription. I literally only have it for putting on stuff to sleep to on my TV without some ad telling me Mr. Beast wants to give me $10,000 if i click.

    But the worse this gets, the more I feel like an asshole for giving them a dime.

  • Execute just adds 1, so if you want the dir world viewable, it's 755.

  • The image quality and the smiley sign hanging up really dates this photo.

  • I don't know anyone that actually thinks like that at store level.

  • As a retail manager, it looks fine? If the people in front of you are all waiting to check out, they should probably grab people from other departments to cover a few extra registers for a bit, but the store itself looks nice to me.

  • Indie games are the only thing keeping gaming alive for me, for the most part. All the AAA games I play are older titles. Doing the GTAV story with a trainer has been a pretty fun time lately for me.

  • Weird, it usually works fine without JS.

  • I'm glad this comment section seems to agree that some fault lies on the game companies, too. I get it that parents gotta also parent, but when games are hiring behavior/psychology experts to design their games to become addictive and suck in people's money as effectively as possible.. adults struggle enough with resisting gaming addiction, let alone kids.

    I know a guy that spent all of his free time, and on average $2,000 a month, on Genshin Impact.

  • If the end goal is privacy, Mullvad accepts cash if you can wait for it to arrive in the mail.

  • Hot take: I think there's not a great deal to fear even for most common people. Technological innovation has always stolen away jobs from somewhere, but the large majority of people are still finding work despite the human population exploding drastically over the last century as that happened.

    Because realistically, if only a few people are working and earning money, then there's no one consuming to feed the shareholders' desire for unsustainable infinite growth every quarter. It would hurt the economy as much as it does the people in it, and that's the one thing that regulators actually care about.

  • I can second this. I have SearxNG running in a docker container by itself and it requires no real maintenance of any kind. I do have a cron job that updates the docker container once per day, but it ran for ages on the same version without issues.

  • Fortunately, they at least aren't deleting accounts with YouTube videos "at this time"

    I still backed up the videos from a deceased friend's channel just in case- but I'm glad his content will still be there.

  • Fit girls make fit games

  • Sounds like plant management needs to enforce lock-out tag-out procedure. That's rule 1 of working on heavy machinery, no matter how safe you think it is.

  • Technically yes, with perfect or near-perfect management, we could double our population and minimize the damage. But realistically, our resource usage will certainly continue at a rate similar to or more than it is now.

    The good thing is, birth rates are proportional to available resources, quality of life, and education; and birthrates globally are already on a decline in non-developing countries. Low birthrates have negative implications on society, but for the planet as a whole, less humans are a good thing

  • But how the hell are they saying “forced” to do something by some scumbag over the internet?

    There was a group from Brazil doing stuff like that and got publicized when they were arrested recently. Usually they'd coerce the minor into sending one picture, then use it as blackmail against them to give them more. They might even gaslight them to convince them that they'll get in big trouble if they tell anyone and it'll just get worse for them.

    I've seen full fledged adults taken hard by scammers and willingly giving them thousands of dollars against their own interests, and they heavily distrust and resist anyone trying to help them. I can only imagine accomplishing that with a child that lacks long term thinking skills is even more effective.

  • Yeah whoops, brain said terabyte but fingers said gigabyte.

  • I know storage is cheap, but nearly half a terabyte? I'm already giving any game the side eye if it takes more than 50G of space on a disk, let alone nearly 10x that.
