Truly hate this timeline

I’ve been looking at used PCs and usually those are just missing the gpu, but now I’ve been seeing no RAM and no SSD. At least with the gpu only being missing it was semi functional if there was integrated graphics, but now you are just basically buying a brick until you can get 3 components that cost 400 or so USD

Ehh there’s a lot of low effort content on youtube, but I don’t really see that much slop. Most of the low effort ones are just clips usually taken from twitch with minimal editing

Of those 500 videos, 294 were classified as AI slop, a term Kapwing defines as videos with obvious AI-generated visuals or low-quality compilations using clearly AI-generated scripts and voiceovers. The 59 per cent rate is roughly three times the proportion found on YouTube in the same study, making TikTok’s default experience dramatically worse for anyone opening the app for the first time.

I looked up the article the og source referenced, which does say what they defined as ai slop.

The original article isn’t helpful because statistics don’t mean anything if they don’t also define what they’re measuring, and they cut the definition short.

What are they classifying as ai slop? Cause in YouTube there is a lot of low effort content that aren’t slop, and there is also low effort content narrated by ai that I’d consider slop, and then there is actual ai slop

Given that LLM takes the weakest security vector (the human) and tries to emulate them, there’s bound to be millions of workarounds

Yknow I completely forgot about cash because all the stores push card payment. I don’t know if you get offered cash back on refund anymore though. Usually these places only offer store credit unless they’re legally obligated to.

Bruh

You’d have to use a card you have access to even get a refund, which means you’d either just hand all the info they ever need to charge you, or you commit credit card fraud and use someone else’s, which is probably even worse.

Just because he apologized and is on the path to rehab doesn’t mean I have to accept him. Like sure I wish him the best to be better, but I don’t necessarily need to accept him.

The thing is that there are real measurements of the market share of windows dropping. The only reason why adoption of w11 overtook w10 user size is because they made w10 end of life (although there are still ways around)

Unfortunately, some business idiot mathed up that losing users is fine as long as the others get forced onto w11

Windows could have done so much differently. More seamless integration with xbox and cross platform for gaming. Different, easily swappable profiles (windows) for different tasks (basically overhauling desktops, like for art, dev work, etc). Optimizing microsofts enterprise software suite without all the bloat. Not deprecating the idea of android support.

But like all big tech companies, they only see money now

I wish windows went down a different path. Instead they decided to double down on ads and ai, because shareholders are more important than the actual customers

Motorola flagship phones are decent. I’ve been running a razr (the flip alternative) and its been solid. They’re not groundbreaking but they are a good bang for your money

Their low budget ones aren’t that good because they cost like 200 usd and run on bare minimums

Tbh if its a social/discussion based website, it will have federal agents monitoring it. Lemmy isn’t free from this either, though in our defense we are probably pretty low on the watchlist (but then again who knows)

That’s because the people who are fine or happy with firefox aren’t the type of people to talk about it, the vocal ones are the people that have complaints
