4k is only expected to be 1080p + DLSS, it's really good enough for that class of HW

I don't want an apple blob I want to pick specific components and run linux

I play inverted mouse on every game because that was the default on Descent, my first 3D game. At least that's what I remember.

However this version uses mouse up/down to do up/down, and that seems so wrong. Can't play it :(

Once your data is out there it's too late. If the hypothetical country you live in - where freedom & due process is respected - suddenly has an authoritarian change of direction, you're done.

It's my understanding that, organically or under external influences, many democratic countries in EU are at the emerging risk of going full fascists. I see that in France, Le Pen & friends don't hide the fact that they'd make a new constitution.

Richest guy in the world has vowed to use his propaganda power to make this happen for the sake of cancelling the EU, fun times

I fail to see how this particular "anime girl" and the potential for clients seeing it, could make you think that's a fair request. That seems extremely ridiculous to me.

I don't. "safety" as it exists really feels like infantilization, condescention, hand holding and enforcement of American puritanism. It's insulting.

Safety should really just be a system prompt: "hey you potentially answer to kids, be PG13"

Unless someone is hurt you can believe what you want. Otherwise it's necessary to weight what's to be gained and lost by entertaining net negative stances on frivolous grounds; and why we should then chose to do so.

Sure, I am quite against all of them already:

The first one has been argued against quite nicely by Piketty, it's how you get plutocracy

The three other ones should not be treated as Rights since the concerned individual is no more, and they don't matter much anyway if coming against the rights of people (that means "living"). For instance collecting organs for the good of those who need, when evaluated, should trump any opposition on frivolous grounds.

I'm indead asking if the whole concept is not wrong and deeply harmful to societies

I'm unsure why dead people would have rights. Is that concept really a good thing?

You still at least need a recent kernel

No. Humans should follow the law, and if they have to be stuck behind a robot that does to do so themselves, so be it.

Not only in science. Even (or especially) in impartial journalism or public debate, there's no valid reason why any unfounded (thus illegitimate) opinions should get as much consideration as sound and researched arguments.

I thought the latest llama were not from FAIR but from the genai team

If it still works for you, it's because you've temporarily workarounded its automatic disablement, and that won't last much longer...

Are you being purposefully controversial (to not say trollish)?

To the exact contrary to what you assert, one of the prominent argument against Gnome that I've been seing times and times again in DE debates, is the "dogmatic" opposition to SSD from the Gnome project.

It's a bit of a false comparison, since you wouldn't have to pay monthly subscriptions to others stores as you have to for streaming services.

I did use literally correctly.

And I can't agree with you. As a non native speaker, I deeply appreciate people making an effort to use language correctly to transmit information. I call that being mindfull of your interlocutors.

The meaning is likely understood/inferred by many if not most, sure.

It's still a "contresens" (can't find the right word in English, literally counter to its meaning), and should absolutely be avoided for clarity.

Let's not just say that it's alright

Objective reality, it exists.

Telling your audience obviously false / anti-factual lies, without any regard for fact checking, is not just "biased reporting". And it is inherently wrong, malevolent, evil.

Anyway, I'm amazed each time I hear right wingers who did not get the joke seemingly complaining about how Reality has a left leaning political bias...

Yet Another Benchmark, great I love benchmarks(!) but, will this page be kept up2date?

Nice !

Could we please get benchmarks for architect / DeepSeek R1 + claude-3-7-20250219 ?

To compare perf and price with Sonnet-3.7-thinking

I don't think that's what the words value and worth mean.

It seems obvious to me that the value of a book teaching me something is not its price, and if that book was free it wouldn't be a worthless book.

insisting on monetary value as the only benchmark of worthiness looks to me as a kind of misguided religion of Capital.

The Open(Closed)AIs of the world have millions of dollars to spend on IP datasets.

Arguing that copyright forbids training AI models without paying authors is the moat that would prevent any hope that small labs, individuals, and open source communities can ever compete with these huge corpos.

The books and other artworks they are arguing over didn't come generated spontaneously from nowhere, and it's disingenuous to refuse sharing them to inform what is basically the worlds next currency : Intelligence. Doing so is just saying that knowledge and intelligence must belong to rich corpos only and never be democratized.

This is unexpected but Meta is basically being the good guy by giving away their research papers and models weight resulting from millions of $ of training.

The alternative to open source AI is everyone's subjugation to the oligarchists in charge of Intelligence. Copyrights holders who argue against free training of open source models from their work are morally and ethically wrong here.

In any case it's really easy to configure a BitTorrent client to never seed. It would be dumb not to when torrenting for work.

Steam can fill up much more

I'm getting my Steam games at 2Gbps, and I am suspecting that my aging ISP's "box" is to blame for the cap (didn't want to pay my ISP for the new box that officially supports 8Gbps symmetrical, and just got a SFP+ adapter for the old one). I pay 39€/M for what is supposed to go "up to" 8Gbps/500Mbps on that old box.

Games from Google Drive mirrors are coming at full speed too. Nice when dling that new Skyrim VR 90GB mod pack refresh

Where I'm from, racial statistics and profiling are forbidden since they're antithetic with republican universalism ; but even taking the US culture into account, this point of view seems extremely bigoted.

"childhood household income. That transcends race or gender"

vs

"targeting childhood household income will see representation of the groups you're trying to help drop to nearly zero"

Did you misunderstand the point? It seems right that if you want to help poor people, you should target poor people, how could that be counterproductive?

From the article :

o3 (low) 75.7% 335K $20

o3 (high) 87.5% 57M $3.4K

I'd argue that, as satire, it's the main point ;)

They could easily list the data used though. These datasets are mostly known and floating around. When they are constructed, instructions for replication could be provided too
