Actual car companies are the same as tesla, even worst. Tesla is so popular because old car companies bribed politicians to avoid transition out of fuel, and cheated (diesel gate was the norm, not an exception).

Unfortunately tesla is still better than other companies. And this says all about how corrupted is automotive industry

I still have ptsd from some primark shops in uk...

Scenes I saw are now how I picture the locust plague.

How can some people be so unaware of basic society rules?

My guess is that kde is more "familiar" for gamers coming from windows... It looks more like windows than gnome

I mean that steam os is built for casual users that want to play. For using it as a desktop os, it's not so great, exactly because it's immutable and it is configured weirdly

To be fair you are trying to use steam deck for what it was not meant to do. You are an edge case. The os was built for steam + flatpack, for games.

It works for that. To use it as desktop os... See my comment above :D

It is an unfortunate burden I am condemned to carry

You are linking sources on biases. As said it is very different. Holy mary is most often represented as white, blue eyes. That is a bias, inherited from training data (as models don't know anything else out of that).

Average is a different things, these models do not perform averages, do not output averages, averages of the output data are not comparable with averages of input data.

It was just to clarify the point

If it was a linear transformation, probably, because you'd remove the stochastic term. But transformation is non linear. I 'd be surprised if true. Do you have a reference for a statistically meaningful experiment on this?

That's a bias, not an average. Similar to human biases. Models' biases are derived from humans' biases in the training data.

Humans have biases for a male doctor and female nurse, models learn that bias unless someone intervene to identify and remove the cultural (very human) bias from the training data set

That's a normal newspaper's article. Most articles (non-opinion articles) are rephrasing of press releases from press agencies

Basically it's how already works with cameras. Subjects and composition are enough to copyright images. Even without post-processing

My comment is that they simply are not averages, that's it.

As a simpler example, it is like saying that a polynomial plus some noise is an average... It's simply not.

The stochastic and non linear parts are the reason these models create original images, unless overfitted.

If it was a weighted average you'd have identical, smoothed, most likely non sensical images for identical prompts.

And this is not the case.

That's all my comment.

Neither. Going from a prompt to an image is a stochastic non-linear transformation based on billions of parameters.

Your brain also performs stochastic non-linear transformations of inputs. Just in a different way.

Docker and guis are not great friends. Docker containers are mainly for web services

It is actually pretty fine for steam deck. It's has to be a console like experience.

For a desktop os? not so much

Don't want to be that guy, but they absolutely don't "emit the statistical averages of the inputs". Otherwise they would create a single, most likely unicolor, image

Ops... I accepted the wrong suggestion from the autocomplete

One can directly install ubuntu on hyper-v, without any additional 3rd party tools. They just need hyper-v enabled (it's installed by default). It's not user friendly, it's the usual gui mess as one could expect from a ms product. But at least it's preinstalled, which is convenient for a work laptop.

Whether IT security department would allow this... It's another story

Edit. Fixed typo

The main problem are companies forcing windows servers and technologies when they are not the good ones for the task.

If one needs to set up desktops for accounting, windows is fine. But I saw companies setting shared NFS drives used by Linux severs on windows machines! Not joking!

I know companies that even deploy kubernetes clusters on windows servers!

Just because finding cheap windows engineers is easy, everyone has had an experience on windows to put on a cv. Than some of that cheap labor go up the hierarchy as head of a random infrastructure team because all good sys engineers moved to manage linux servers after some time, he recruits people like-minded, and in few years you ends up with a team refusing to do the right thing because "we know windows and windows can do the same as Linux and Microsoft is good for governance and Linux bad". Execs don't understand the difference and force architecture to go along because they don't believe it's worthy to rebuild a team, we are anyway using windows for accounting and execs laptops, it can't be that bad! Even accenture and mckinsey consultants us it! And they told us that wls2 is the holy grail

Corporate IT is the peak of suboptimal tools for the job because politics and money
