I joined Lemmy back in 2020 and have been using it as [email protected] until somewhere in 2023 when I switched to lemmy.world. I’m interested in Linux, FOSS, and Selfhosting.

One reason I was reluctant to use C# in open source projects is because the free tooling on Linux was subpar. This is great.


They probably make relatively more from services / data than the hardware now.



I can see this being useful if executed well and if it just looks for specific settings. I often can’t find certain settings and google what the name is (first Android phone). I think it has potential when used as a sort of smart fuzzy finder.


Can you choose to only spoof it for specific apps?



I’ve heard that from plenty of people



Windows required CPU’s to have certain extensions/instructions to use the newest version, which might have required buying a new CPU and thus getting one of the affected ones. However, I don’t think it’s reasonable to blame Microsoft for this.


I would pay extra to be able to run open LLM’s locally on Linux. I wouldn’t pay for Microsoft’s Copilot stuff that’s shoehorned into every interface imaginable while also causing privacy and security issues. The context matters.




Mine was about €800, it has a pretty fast CPU, enough RAM, and fast integrated graphics. The only downside is that it’s completely unrepairable.


I ended up going with a Lenovo laptop due to the cost. My next laptop is probably going to be a Framework.


Oh no, this is going to have a huge impact on our bottom line and potential hires, better sell that publicly traded stock real fast!


Kvaesitso search is pretty bad. It’s unable to find the F-droid app when searching “fdroid”.



Last but not least, the question arises whether this is a useful benchmark for LLMs, or just an interesting distraction. More complex games could provide more rewarding insights, but results would probably be more difficult to interpret.

I’d love to see LLM’s rated by the time it takes them to beat the ender dragon


I did, I just accidentally wrote RISCV instead of RISC. The acronym ARM actually stands for “Acorn RISC Machine”. TheLowSpecGamer has an interesting animated series about it’s development that is worth checking out.


Yes, I somehow wrote RISC-V instead of RISC 😅. You’re right.


ARM is a type of RISCV, it makes sense their ARM division expands to other RISCV architectures.

EDIT: ARM is a type of RISC, not RISCV


I’m still dissapointed. TF|2 is such a great game. It’s a shame they just dropped it.



Don’t worry about missing out on the performance of the 14900KS for gaming, though, as the cheaper Ryzen 7 7800X3D is likely to be just as quick, if not more so, in many games.

Sounds great, but based on what?


I feel like twitter-likes need fast, relevant, whitty answers while redditlikes need thought out, deep answers like a forum.

There are plenty of short witty responses on Reddit-like platforms too, but I think the context influences what people upvote/like. On Twitter, you only see the tweet and the response, but on reddit-like platforms you see the original topic and responses, before scrolling down to see a specific response.


Yes, but this type also steals your credentials.


but what’s more important is the intent

Afaik, the problem was a trojan inside the cracked windows images they used to avoid paying for windows keys. I doubt the intent was to create a botnet, it seems more like generic cybercrime.

I personally always wipe the preinstalled OS to avoid issues like this. However, make sure to use a clean image directly from the source. Simply reinstalling from within Windows wouldn’t have helped in this case, because the malware was part of the recovery files.

The story originated from a video from the “The Net Guy Reviews” YouTube channel. Most articles I’ve seen so far oversimplify the issue and/or get facts wrong, therefore I recommend checking out the original video if you want to learn more.


I signed up few days ago, but I learned that I still don’t care about twitter style platforms. I prefer Reddit like platforms where the focus lies on the subject instead of the person.


There is the 64 core, 32-128GB DDR4 Milk-V Pioneer, but it uses PCIe 4.0


Dedicated traning artists would be expensive. They probably would buy stock art and make deals with art platforms such as Deviantart to entice creators to allow their material to be used for training for small monetary or cosmetic rewards.


Can you explain what the chart means? It seems like it’s supposed to show that it will degrade the output of the models when the number of poisoned samples increases, however it shows a different subject above than below. Does it morph the subject into another concept?


Peertube (the software being used by Tilvids) uses WebTorrent (streaming torrent client) to reduce the server load.


Yes there are, ARM will always be cheaper than Intel and is reaching competitive / comparable levels of performance.

Compute time is significantly cheaper than dev time. 76% of the internet web is powered by PHP and entire services are developed in JS. The average cost of a software developer in the US is 140k, while you can rent a server with 24 cores, 64 GiB of RAM and 4 TiB SSD that can run plenty of badly optimized Node.js docker containers for 90 bucks a month.


COBOL programs are structured very differently from Java. For example; you can’t just declare a variable, you have to add it to the working storage section at the top of the program.



I have used Nextcloud notes, Obsidean, Onenote, Logseq and Anytype. Anytype is my favorite so far. It’s open source, sync is E2E using IPFS, and Anytype also backs up your notes and 1GB of files on their infrastructure for free.


Great choice, it pairs well with uBlock origin
