Still, would you really want that? A half-baked device in your network, a device you suspect would constantly betray you, if given the chance?
I personally can’t imagine getting used to that. I’d despise the device (and myself probably).

Don’t spread any misinformation. The price for the theoretical part is 25€.
If you take the test 128 times, that comes out to 3200€, a number very similar to the one mentioned in the article.
The article does not talk about the total cost of obtaining a driver’s license.


I could see it if it was a screen I get to control, akin to a smart mirror. Fridge door would be a pretty good surface since I’m guaranteed to look at it a couple of times each day.
Other than that, push notifications if the door is open? That’s about the max when it comes to usefulness I can imagine. Is that a problem that requires a connected device? No, probably not.
However, depending on the model range, it becomes difficult to even get a model that doesn’t have the “smart” features. No one can force you to connect the device though (yet).


Jesus, how do you people always come up with the most inane conspiracies. I have a company that manufactures devices that communicate wirelessly. The new RED is a huge pain in the ass, along with the CRA.
Absolutely no company pushed for this. The new legislations and directives cause a ton of additional work and obligations for companies, e. g. software has to be certified as part of the compliance check, things that were previously approved via self-reports now involve trusted 3rd parties, and reports of violations to government bodies are now mandatory.
And you know what, even though this costs a bunch of money that could go elsewhere and the whole thing is so new that even the certification bodies have no idea what is going on, even though we have to setup completely new processes, spend endless hours documenting things, I still appreciate both initiatives.
As an end customer, I would love if e. g. the software that runs on the mobile payment terminal taking my card info is certified. I would love if the developer of the software running on the PLC on my shop floor has to check CVEs, inform me about security issues and has to deliver 5 to 10 years of updates.
Not a fan of Samsung and their shitty software, but they’re simply preemptively covering their ass, nothing more.
I’d also still want to unlock my bootloader. I’m sure the whole legal situation will become less muddled, enabling just that.


Yes, but many things can be mapped to “language”, let’s say a grammar describing state machines, so it can be used to generate control actions.
Transformer models etc. are not only useful for conversational AI and translations.
I’d be fine with the approach as part of research advancing the field, but unfortunately, that’s not what we’re seeing.
Congratulations, this is how you get exploited by corporations.
Who says you can’t check their outputs? It’s much faster to e. g. read a generated text than to write everything yourself. Same applies to translations, they’ve been excellent for quite a while now.
Business communication can be handled effortlessly by AI. Of course you read the result before you send it out, but that takes an order of a magnitude less time than formulating and typing all those meaningless sentences.
And honestly, that’s a perfect use case for AI. I wouldn’t compose a love letter to my family using AI, but a pamphlet, feature description, sales pitch, any bullshit presentation deck? You bet AI excels at those.
Same applies to content summaries that help augment search indices. Finding a large number of content candidates (e. g. videos) and have AI summarize the contents of said videos to narrow down the search is helpful and works today.
I’m not looking for AGI. I’m looking for tools to make my life easier, but in an ethical manner that doesn’t advance the destruction of the planet at an exponential rate, just for some tech bro to jerk it and buy another yacht.
Those numbers are baseless exaggerations. There are plenty of tasks which they solve perfectly, today. It’s just that a bunch of dicks operate them, and the cost of operating them are way too high.
Also:
It’s not that they’re not useful, that’s just nonsense.


Ah shit. I swear to god, this just happened to me. I came to the comments, confused why a trailer for Outer Wilds 2 would be age-restricted.
Ugh.
But then again, you cleared up my confusion, so I guess there’s that.
Honestly, the zoom gets me the most. Why was that added? How do you get away with something like that?
Most people will run a post 2.6 kernel, so prlimit will be available as an interesting alternative to ulimit.


When asked what location fans wanted as a fighting stage, one very popular answer was Waffle House. Context: if you crash at WH after a long night out, you’re guaranteed to witness some drunken fighting.
Man, I’d love a Waffle House stage.
It absolutely does, on Android at least. On iOS, given Apple’s restrictions, the whole situation is a bit more complicated:

I don’t know what your previous setup was, but given that running resolved fixes your DNS issues, run:
ln -sf ../run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf
This will point programs that use /etc/resolved.conf during DNS resolution to the local DNS server provided by systemd-resolved.
Then, enable resolved so that it is started when you reboot:
systemctl enable systemd-resolved.service
Finally, start the service so that it is available immediately:
systemctl start systemd-resolved.service
You will want it run those with the required permissions, e. g. via sudo.
I was not ready for how many stock photos they produced.


The parent comment is correct. CODE is the server, you need the “Collabora Online app” for document editing. I’m not aware if there are alternatives to the ownCloud / Nextcloud apps.
I have no idea about the current state of AI tools, in particular I know absolutely nothing about the plethora of models people self-host and run.
Is this completely generative, or AI face swapped? What tools were used in the creation?
I do in fact use unrefined, brown cane sugar, although I have not tried panela specifically.
The one I use pretty much looks like this:

It’s an organic fair trade brand, but I’d have to look up where it is imported from.
As I said, I can’t imagine making it with any other kind of sugar any more. Sorghum seems like an interesting idea, might have to experiment with that.
The latest Raspberry Pi cameras have decent sensors, variants with night vision are available. Axis makes reliable, network attached cameras.
Open-source software like Frigate or ZoneMinder exists.
