I generally sort by top day and this sub rarely comes up with anything i disagree with, I've probably been subbed here since I joined.

for the record I'm not anti China or anti US I disagree with authoritarianism that all super powers have. And this poped up in my feed and looks like basic authoritarian boot licking. That's all, I'm not trying to attack socialism or even China

What does the authoritarian China have to do with socialism? They are a lot closer to state capitalism than anything imo. This just reads as propaganda. I think the world respects China about as much as people repect the States, that is to say not at all, only fear and or distrust at best.

I can't tell too much from the picture but I believe that's a Chinese robot and China will ship to Russia from what I understand. And I've seen those as low as $1600 and anyone can order them online. It still sounds fishy maybe the cops want an excuse to get their own

Doubt it's even worth pirating. Ubisoft gets consistently worse year after year.

Came here to say the same. Such a great distro, and it'll be an easy switch from manjaro.

I've been running it with btrfs and it has been rock solid stability wise. If you go btrfs I recommend grub btrfs for easy boot time snapshots and btrfs-assistant in the aur if you want a GUI to manage btrfs maintenance.

Multiple reasons, but it starts with terrible education. They don't know how to verify information at best, and at worst don't want to, they believe they win when they piss off someone they don't like. This means the information they get on current topics is generally something pushed by someone either paying an algorithm to target them or by things like AstroTurfing.

There's a lot of value for the hegemony class in getting people to not care about the climate, endless war, genocide, and human rights in general.

And then you have the out of touch authoritarian liberals/neoliberals that control the liberal side of the mainstream media.

These professional perpetual victims get a whiff of any actual perceived slight against them and they just cum in their little pants don't they?>

No surprise the root of this comes from modern christianity. In their mind anything they can call persecution adds credit (increased self-righteous bs) to their own dogma. Of course when they do it to other people they are saving them from hell so just about anything goes.

Most Trump voters I have come across don't actually know what fascism is, so the insult dosnt work. They still believe they are voting for small government and lower taxes, they are in a delusion and they can't believe otherwise regardless of what I would call facts.

Trump voters are quite practiced at mentally cherry picking what their dogma is in their religion, so for them it's not as much of a stretch.

Claud 3.5 and o1 might be able to do that; if not, they are close to being able to do that. Still better than 99.99% of earthly humans

The latest llms get a perfect score on the south Korean SAT and can pass the bar. More than pure marketing if you ask me. That does not mean 90% of business that claim ai are nothing more than marketing or the business that are pretty much just a front end for GPT APIs. llms like claud even check their work for hallucinations. Even if we limited all ai to llms they would still be groundbreaking.

Yeah IMO they need an app that can download/manage models directly

This is amazing! If you are looking for US EN and use a phone with arm64 I can recommend sherpa-onnx-1.10.27-arm64-v8a-en-tts-vits-piper-en_US-kristin-medium and sherpa-onnx-1.10.27-arm64-v8a-en-tts-vits-piper-en_US-norman-medium.

Edit: I don't seem to be able to get the engine to show up as a tts engine but it works well within the tts app itself. Hopefully I'll find a fix I've been searching for a good tts engine for android eBook apps.

Edit 2. Fixed I mistakenly downloaded the standalone version from https://k2-fsa.github.io/sherpa/onnx/tts/apk.html instead of https://k2-fsa.github.io/sherpa/onnx/tts/apk-engine.html

No doubt LLMs are not the end all be all. That said especially after seeing what the next gen 'thinking models' can do like o1 from ClosedAI OpenAI, even LLMs are going to get absurdly good. And they are getting faster and cheaper at a rate faster than my best optimistic guess 2 years ago; hell, even 6 months ago.

Even if all progress stopped tomorrow on the software side the benefits from purpose built silicon for them would make them even cheaper and faster. And that purpose built hardware is coming very soon.

Open models are about 4-6 months behind in quality but probably a lot closer (if not ahead) for small ~7b models that can be run on low/med end consumer hardware locally.

I'd agree the first part but to say all Ai is snake oil is just untrue and out of touch. There are a lot of companies that throw "Ai" on literally anything and I can see how that is snake oil.

But real innovative Ai, everything to protein folding to robotics is here to stay, good or bad. It's already too valuable for governments to ignore. And Ai is improving at a rate that I think most are underestimating (faster than Moore's law).

Yeah, I don't understand the hate that guy gets on Lemmy group think. He's not a scientist, but so long as people dont view his ideas as absolute truth, I don't see what is wrong with pointing at some unexplained mystery and asking 'what if'

And to say it's truly racist to state anything like that there might have been some ancient culture is just absurd.

People have their minds made up so he apparently falls into the heretic camp. I doubt many of the people here have actually read or watched his stuff. There are of course people that take what he says as gospel and that is also problematic.

That said, he's been on more and more of woe is me the victim and it's getting old.

It almost seems like there's anti Mozilla campaign going on. It's normal to see some critique but all of a sudden there is a huge Mozilla hate push. Call me crazy but it feels organized

Title is probably true, but also it's less likely for the NSA to leak your info than say an ISP that openly sells your info. I highly doubt that the NSA sees someone pirating Photoshop as a priority. VPNs can help with preventing a random ad from logging your real loose location, have built in DNS ad block, open up region locked content plus a list of other benefits.

VPNs absolutely help with general privacy, like not putting your personal phone number on a public registry. They are not intended to perfectly hide you from a super power's intelligence agency lol

You can always just try endeavouros. Its pretty much arch with calmaries installer. It even uses official arch repos

Way way better than gmail IMO. One simple reason is if you have something wrong with your account you can get in contact with a real human. And still better data protection than anything in the US. I'm not a journalist or freedom fighter so for my use case it's ideal.
