But a decade from now, there will be AI trained on data that will no longer exist. And many websites that GPT trained on probably don't exist anymore.

rikudou ,

Isn't it? I think it's quite there, unless you get unlucky with hardware.

rikudou ,

Gaming is no longer a reason, really. 99% of the time it works out of the box.

rikudou ,

Well, I was comparing to my experience with both Windows and MacOS or whatever is the thing called.

Windows PC gets slow and laggy after around half a year, it goes slowly so you don't notice at first, but around half a year later it's shitty. No matter the hardware. Sure, your $2k laptop won't be as slow as a random $300 laptop, but the ratio of new/half-a-year-later is more or less the same.

With Macs I have limited experience, but my partner's Mac was shitting itself all the time, weird issues with login screen being stuck and needing hard reboot, the thing generally being laggy when you try to do more than two things (neither of which necessarily needs to be a demanding task), Finder is pretty much an abomination that no one really knows how to use well and so on.

Sure, Linux is fucked up all the time as well, but my point is it's not worse than the other two systems, both are broken all the time as well. And the argument that you need terminal to work - have you actually fixed any problem on Windows? Unless a reboot of the system or of some service solves the problem, within 10 minutes you're either running PowerShell or you're deep in the registry.

Well, at least Windows seems to be a problem that's solving itself (albeit very slowly) with how shitty it's become.

rikudou ,

Travelers, if you're into sci-fi.

rikudou ,

Not really, I usually avoid time travel stuff because they usually fuck up the logic and I can see way too many inconsistencies.

rikudou ,

Good, now he shall feel scared whenever he even thinks of proposing something that moves Slovakia towards the middle ages (or Russia, but that's pretty similar).

rikudou ,

Nah, we're gonna play by the rules with bad actors who only abuse it. That's how we'll win, right? Because all the fairy tales said the good guys win, right?

In the end Russia will see the error of their ways, a unicorn will fly out of my ass while shitting rainbows and everything will be good.

rikudou ,

Thanks for explaining a joke that has been running around forever.

rikudou ,

Isn't any math operation involving NaNs also a NaN? At least that's my gut feeling.

rikudou ,

In my language, onanování is masturbating. And onan is a mild insult insinuating that someone wanks a lot.

rikudou ,

Not the same thing, I'm pretty sure something like that is in almost any language, but here it's the official word for male masturbation, not some niche word that's not really used much.

I know the story and you're right, it's pretty dumb how it's used.

rikudou ,

So, is there a community for redneck engineering?

rikudou ,

Turn back time and don't leave the union that actually does pro-consumer things?

rikudou ,

Who says that? Or is it the case of making stuff up and being angry about it? Who calls you antisemitic for criticizing Israel for committing genocide?

rikudou ,

Source? I'm pretty sure it says something different and you just reduced it ad absurdum.

rikudou ,

I am paying attention and the only people throwing around antisemitism are people like you.

rikudou ,

As I said, reduced ad absurdum. Just read through it, nowhere in the text there's anything about criticism of Jews being equal to antisemitism.

rikudou ,

I've never encountered it here on Lemmy.

If you don't see the value in an independent media check, I'm afraid you're beyond help.

rikudou ,

As I said, beyond help.

rikudou OP ,

Oh, I own it on EA, not on Steam.

rikudou OP ,

Perhaps, not a fan of viruses though.

rikudou OP ,

The classical Windows viruses that run fairly well under Wine? Sure, the impact is not as high as on Windows but pretending there's no risk is extremely dumb. I do security for a living. Your "argument" is just plain wrong and I hope I never get your PC on any network I am part of.

rikudou OP ,

6 hours to get it running. Not a native speaker.

rikudou ,

I've been there, now it's been over two years where I'm pretty much Gmail free. It's hard but it's worth it.

Why Are Rap*** & Ped** Protected In Jail?

It’s actually sick, they already get a light sentence and also getting protected by the justice system while the victim they violated is heavily traumatized, probably for life. And what’s crazier is it’s happening more, I’m seeing it daily now every time I scroll, there’s another case. Just a few days ago a middle aged...

rikudou ,

Because next time someone might decided that whatever you did wrong is worthy of being served some mob justice. You might not like it, but everyone being treated the same is the basic principle thanks to which our society can work at all. Once you remove it, shit goes wild.

Remember, once you pass something like mob justice for rapists into law, it's not long until someone who really hates something you like is gonna abuse it.

rikudou ,

Why the fuck can't we just have a normal song competition like everyone else? Instead we get this weird shit.

rikudou ,

Loved? Really depends on the country, I guess. I don't personally know a single person who actually likes it.

rikudou ,

Well, for my country it truly is empirical, not anecdotal. And for once I fully agree with my fellows, Eurovision is a horrible abomination.

rikudou ,

Well at least my reading comprehension doesn't suck so much. 🤷

rikudou ,

And not as a Hong-Konger, if you don't want your family on a blacklist.

rikudou ,

Not from the US, but Europe is basically worse than the US when it comes to EVs and I'd still never consider a Chinese car. They are not really known for following safety standards. Or any standards for that matter.

rikudou ,

The best explanation would be the actual one - they don't give a shit about Middle-Earth.

rikudou ,

Disagree, the "another layer" thing would be extremely lazy writing.

rikudou ,

Totally forgot about HISHE! Gonna have to check them out again.

rikudou ,

What do you mean "no reason"? IMO it was executed and explained well.

rikudou ,

It was because he's connected to the machine network and he has some limited interfacing with them. He could trigger their destroy sequence or whatever.

At least that's what I remember, haven't seen it for a while.

rikudou , (edited )

Well, that's bullcrap. Science is about finding the truth, religion is about shifting the blame to someone else (and about controlling masses, depends on which side you view this from).

Sure, some people believe in string theory. But the moment it's proven wrong, they're gonna stop. Another important difference is that no one thinks it has any meaningful impact on you as a moral human being, while religiots base all their morality on what their fake god has told various goat herders and child rapists centuries and millennia ago.

Edit: I was not aware that "Law of Attraction" had some weird bullshit meaning. The fact that attraction basically means gravity in my mother language didn't help matters. And the mention of string theory also made it plausible that the OP was a weird rant about science.

rikudou ,

Sorry for my rant, I thought this was about physics, not some pseudo bullshit, I haven't heard about that thing ever before.

rikudou ,

I know what the euphemism stands for. But reverse the situation, put small tits somewhere in the sentence and suddenly it's big bad.

Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who tries to imagine what people will feel like when reading stuff. And I'm imagining a guy whose only "crime" is having been born with a small penis and having to constantly read how that makes him a macho.

Why does everyone forget how to behave when it comes to men? Y'all are being quite disgusting.

rikudou ,

So were men. And children. And everyone in between, unless they had money. We're not living in a patriarchy and haven't for quite a few millennia. It's the rich ruling the poor.

rikudou ,

. <--- the point

Y <--- you

rikudou ,

Can't you use VPN? The Android layer works very well, though the lack of fingerprint sensor support gets tiring.

rikudou ,

Thanks for the report! It's fixed now.

rikudou ,

That's the case, they removed one level of nesting from the html. Anyway, it doesn't look for Article_Body class, but any class that starts with Article_Body. They're using randomized class names with the prefix being constant, that's why I have to do it that way. I've updated it to this horrible looking selector: div[class*="Article_body"] > div > p, div[class*="Article_body"] > div > ul:not([class*="ShareUtility"]) > li.
