no worries, then they'll just ship those products through one the other members of the EU

The European Union allows goods to move freely between the 27 countries in the economic bloc, which would complicate any bid to impose trade restrictions on a single member state. Src: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c8r1mzd8vygo

did he call Qwen a SOTA model?

I would say Antrophic and others illicitly extracted free internet content and put it behind a paywall, giving zero compensation to those that made their whole business possible in the first place. So smallest violin player busy here trying to make me care if it happens to them.

I never got past the first level of Wolfenstein back in the day

Wolfenstein FOV was way too low, something like <70, which caused that feeling sick, try to get games where you can set you FOV to 85+ and it made a world of difference. motion sickness =gone

I find that Deepseek Pro to be below Sonnet 4.6 for much of the coding/review/executing tasks from plan. The only good thing it has going is the price. It will is cheaper for it to crunch through your well worked out implementation plans, it's slower, makes more errors, needs more tokens to fix those. And even at that increased spent it does deliver in the end. More tokens, lower cost, slower.

I use it as something that sits right below Sonnet for daily tasks that can be run in loops with validation checks, perfect. Anything more advanced...it just doesn't cut it.

Same experience with z-ai glm 5.1 btw... don't know what system prompt magic antrophic set in front of their Sonnet 4.6, but it does execute tasks efficiently.

claiming any of these deepseek models are close to opus is a bit optimistic

Any benchmarks and comparisons done? am I overlook it?

another positive vote for Inoreader , really the best none self hosted, as long as you keep your subscriptions within their free limits :)

Synology 923+

supports running dockers, running adguard DNS filtering, youtube-dl container and adblocker is such a time saver self hosted image hosting etc

so much potential lost... if you just use it as a "HDD on the network"

A perpetual license doesn't mean that Filezilla should be a free hosting provider for installation media for eternity.

exactly. If you buy a music CD and lose that CD, while you have the license of the music on that CD, you should not get a free CD as replacement.

if you buy a software license, at least store the install binary?

and about 90% of consumers of these AI startups have no idea how to prompt engineer.

at this time that just translates to "73% of software startups are just writing code in C++"

yes you could write your own code, your own prompt for LLM, or you could spend time on using the code / LLM output

and let's not forget QuakeWorld that introduced latency compensation, allowing you to have an OK experience with up to 200ms ping, where as the normal Quake TCP/IP stack was basically unplayable with anything over 70-80ms. https://quakewiki.org/wiki/QuakeWorld

my first multiplayer Quake was with Qtest in February 1996 using a null modem cable between two machines, and later on using coax cables and IPX in DOS

getting a multiplayer game running was a tech feat compared to the plug & play nature of things now. the learning curve is gone now.

Do put your DNS at cloudflare for your blog, as it can more effectively block all unwanted traffic. Dropped my bandwidth usage on personal blog from 4-5Gb/day to less than 500Mb by putting DNS through cloudflare and enabling their bot/ai blocks.

what a short sighted and close minded person. I hope she uses the same rule for everything. "as soon as he opened a book to read a receipt I stopped being interested".

‘OK, so ChatGPT helps you write your grocery list. Does your individual convenience outweigh the societal harm it can cause?’

look at this garbage reasoning. "oh no a shopping list, IT IS THE END OF THE WORLD"

Let's work 90 hours a week and retire at 80, imagine the growth, big numbers get bigger makes bald monkey happy

that is all you heard in the 80-90s, people over the pond showing off how many hours per week they worked. like... how is that something to be proud of? So wauw, you spend 12hrs+ per day working , had no free evenings, zero paid holidays. And that is supposed to impress who?

please.

a RSS reader should allow for quick view of titles & summaries so you can decide to click through or not, inoreader free version scratches that itch. Don't need any fancy features, or social stuff. sure it's not self hosted, but it's just a collection of rss feeds, if it's down for a while, nothing big of value was lost, a small ompl backup of the feeds is all you need to get started elsewhere, self hosted or not.

Given the ungodly CPU usage this needs, I'd say it's directly responsible for the sea rise.

ah yes, the classical "the CPU usage the higher the sea level" saying...

Get some old i7 or Ryzen

power draw. running 24/7 it makes a huge difference in overall power usage, and by switching from a repurposed desktop mobo & cpu, to a dedicated low power saved me thousands in electricity costs every year.

that fact that in EU power isn't cheap... is also a main reason for keeping total power draw as low as possible.

booting into Windows Recovery and disabling driver signature reinforcement (Option 7 in Startup Settings after going to troubleshoot and advanced options) makes OOBE\BYPASSNRO work again

The Microsoft Rewards Ultimate Giveaway Sweepstakes isn’t available in your country or region.

ah, cool a region that blocks these business practices... awesome :)

Do you really?

spotted the capitalist.

So I just figured out a workaround that actually works! At least until Microsoft puts out a new Windows installer that fixes this,

here's what you can do:

First, make sure you unplug your ethernet cable or turn off WiFi before you start installing Windows. This way your computer isn't connected to the internet during setup.

When you get to that screen where it's asking you to sign in with a Microsoft account (you know, the annoying one from the post), here's the trick: press SHIFT and F10 at the same time. This opens up a command prompt window.

Then just type this command: start ms-cxh:localonly and press Enter. It should bring up an option to make a local account instead! Just fill in a username and password like the old days.

After you finish the setup and get to your desktop, you can connect back to the internet and download all the updates.

I'd get random garbage like a notification for some "grand prize giveaway"

???

how? what kind of malware did you install? have several W11 boxes, none exhibit this behavior. No "official" notification for a prize give away or any ads.

and I have already started to have an icky feeling when using things like WhatsUp.

since when? since Facebook bought it, right? right???

wait... did this guy buy Apple products and expect it not the be a walled garden? wut? under what rock is he living

ok not "software" zoom, but still not optical zoom per se. The marketing guys hard at work

for getting the increased zoom you're getting 4x optical zoom (going down from 5x on 16 pro) and then 2x software zoom. Not bad, but not more optical zoom...

and that bump has again lens bumps, uneven, and the cases are really fugly and large

It's not because the site gives you a reply button that you need to press it... you can also downscale the server & energy usage, the "planet" is better that way

they just casually mentioned they have always been on the forefront of AI.... however that might have been a poor choice of words. If they would have just swapped it with "Machine Learning" and then referring to the ML chip and on device learning & analysis. A Win.

just using "AI" as term... they are so on the forefront that they sent your data to ChatGPT, otherwise you would be too ahead of the pack...

Competition, fortunately

so there's no competition when there are no rules and regulations... ? interesting.

all those sports without rules or regulations, like american football where anything goes.

make a technology very affordable, get people hooked. Then when LLM have basically destroyed the open web, charge more for accessing and searching that wealth of human created knowledge. Profit $$$

Ethical approach? hell no. What do you expect from an unregulated capitalistic system.
