Still using archive.is, why? They have been shown to edit pages after being archived. Completely unreliable and distasteful. And they abused their captcha page to facilitate a DDoS.

Yes, offloads into system. Oh and i forgot to mention that’s with the context set around 25k. That can vary greatly per model though, it’s taken some experimentation to figure that out.

I have a rx5600xt (6gb), 32gb ram, ryzen 3600. System hasn’t been updated since i built it during covid. QwenV3-vl35B is the heftiest thing I can run, it gets around 2 tokens/sec, in LM studio. It’s easier than most people seem to think.

Unprompted snark from an .ml user, how surprising. I am a bigger cheerleader for open source than any of my friends or family. It’s the only real path to stay free of corporate influence, greed, and spying (in regards to software). Live free or die.

Bitwarden is, by definition, open source. It has been since I started using it ~6 years ago. I’m tired of literally everything having the potential for enshittification. Nothing is safe in the long run, not even volunteer-run projects. If you think your favorite project is safe because of some “core ethos” or “guiding principles”, you’re just drinking the kool-aid. As long as we exist under capitalism, anything under the sun can be enshittified.

I will never give up, even if things seem even more dire than they are now. But I’m tired of having to maintain constant vigilance.

Ah for fuck’s sake. Seems like every month I have to change something because some fucking company starts getting a taste for greed via data sucking. I’m goddamn sick of it.

So if there is a legal battle, this would likely be the crux of their argument. Good to know.

This is lame as shit. The tone of the writing is going to get non-tech people feeling quite dismissive, or scared enough to seek out surface level info, which just rolls back into feeling dismissive. It’s actually really stupid because they’re clearly driving fear, but hardly touch the real thing to be scared of. Fingerprinting is barely mentioned, it’s only really addressed once, in the font identification section. The issue with all these data points is how they can be collected and correlated across the web - it basically means fuck-all if it’s only from one page.

edit: On top of that, each data point is presented as some sort of horrible catastrophe, when some are completely benign. Barely addressing why some points actually matter, or not at all. (Like click/touch data, it’s needed for site functionality, but it gets creepy when that data is used for things like psychological profiling)

Even more disappointing because the formatting/appearance is more than clean enough to share with basically anyone. Yet the tone and focus makes that out of the question. What a waste of time to make this.

it’s really not. more like gathering a crowd of a few billion people, asking them a question, hearing the loudest answer and assuming it’s correct

Now that’s what I call hedging!

He’s been succeeded by Michael.

Well… Technically, he didn’t say they were successfully armed. He said there was an attempt made but he thought the arms didn’t make it to the protesters.

Edit: Still seems like a big deal for it to be confirmed in any sense.

It’s a good idea. Small business loans are a thing, I have no idea how to navigate them though. But I do know they’re sometimes provided by nonprofits and NGO’s. Office space rents haven’t declined yet, but if the market overall takes a downturn, that will probably be some of the first real estate to feel the heat. Lots are sitting empty with the landlord holding out for a higher price they think they can achieve, so maybe look at the price history of some near you. If they’re starting to decline, decent chance they’ll continue. Could even start out in a strip mall, then expand to your dream facility type after getting off the ground. Only thing I’d be real worried about is physical security, in any scenario. People love stealing computers and such. It sucks.

That shit woke me up at a young age. I’ll always remember rewinding bits over and over on the combo vhs/tv I had in my room.

Hell yeah. Suffer more, bitch. That gave me a great start to the morning, seeing that. I hope he has a heart attack. Or a full blown stroke. Maybe a grand mal seizure. Stress is really bad for your body, especially at a high level for extended time. I hope that’s the only state he gets to experience for the rest of his miserable existence.

Because they’re eating up their propaganda like good lil boys.

Not really, I can distance them in my mind to some degree while still appreciating the art but only if it doesn’t require a bunch of mental gymnastics. J.K is past the level for me because I took positive lessons from her books that she ironically didn’t learn herself. Her stance irl seems to be antithetical to the books, she would be the villain in her own stories.

Kanye… more complicated for me. I can still separate art from artist when I listen to his old work. I’ve struggled with some pretty similar things to him, mental health wise. It’s hard to imagine being in his position. Now he’s apologizing for the nazi shit, and yeah words are great but they need to be followed with actions, and a lot of them. If what he said is true (walking around with an undiagnosed TBI for years) then what he did makes sense, but just apologizing isn’t enough. Not even close. His trump arc did immeasurable damage, so for the apology to feel legit, he needs to put in enough positive work to balance it out plus extra. And I haven’t really seen any actions to follow the apology yet.

The more I like your art, the more I am willing to put up with some bs from you as a person. But the line, for me, is hypocrisy. Because then the art loses meaning as a piece of the artist.

The way you’re quoting this implies sarcasm or derision. Okay then, we should do nothing? The ecosystem is a wreck, yes, and acting our entire species took part is disingenuous at best.

What’s really your question here? This is all over the place. I feel like you’re upset about this, which is totally valid and I feel you, but it’s making it hard to understand exactly where you’re coming from.

Ah fuck it, I’ll take one Login with Caution please.

Yeah but you also have to consider the psychological damage.
