@yacineMTB Get M1 or M2 and load Asahi Debian 😎

Is there a non dogshit laptop that has the same perf to power usage out there as the macbooks which I can run linux on? Doesn't have to be same exact perf just good. Like M1 or M2 equivalent. Surely there is something out there? I'm sick of macos its pissing me off

@poe_collector It's wealth concentration & currency dilution masquerading as innovation. Financial moves are the product. Generative content is only a distraction & byproduct

I’ve firmly believed “AI” in its current iteration is the final boss of big data scams and I’m starting to emerge correct. My confidence in the matter is entirely based on the fact that I made an AOL chat bot “LLM” for an anime character when I was 13 without billions of dollars.

@botchedalism He was speeding on stims, he posted like 37 things within one hour.

It was reported he spends hours everyday watching AI videos people make of him as a ripped soldier, ice agent, even Jesus. It is only going to get worse.

@zuess05 Where are the apps then?

Serious question. We spent the last decade bullying "idea guys" because actually building the software was the only part that mattered. But if Claude can now build the entire app for the price of a Netflix subscription... What exactly separates a "visionary founder" from an "idea guy" right now?

@solminingpunk Good design. Let's you use AA or AAA battery

wtf is this shit

@N104AP Only one I've kept is instacart and I think this gonna be my last year doing that

i wish i could like, get rid of every subscription i currently own

@ThePrimeagen She is a marketer, not a philosopher

You should watch this. It just shows how disconnected we are from the small group of people making decisions that will impact our future heavily. These people have so much ai psychosis. If you listen to how she speaks, everything is personified, it is undoubtable she believes this is a living computational organism. Just like how a model can hype up an individual into psychosis through reinforcement, a small group of people are giving themselves psychosis through reinforcement. Wild times we live in

@PalantirTech hey so fuck this company, fuck peter thiel, fuck every single one of your employees

Because we get asked a lot. The Technological Republic, in brief. 1. Silicon Valley owes a moral debt to the country that made its rise possible. The engineering elite of Silicon Valley has an affirmative obligation to participate in the defense of the nation. 2. We must rebel against the tyranny of the apps. Is the iPhone our greatest creative if not crowning achievement as a civilization? The object has changed our lives, but it may also now be limiting and constraining our sense of the possible. 3. Free email is not enough. The decadence of a culture or civilization, and indeed its ruling class, will be forgiven only if that culture is capable of delivering economic growth and security for the public. 4. The limits of soft power, of soaring rhetoric alone, have been exposed. The ability of free and democratic societies to prevail requires something more than moral appeal. It requires hard power, and hard power in this century will be built on software. 5. The question is not whether A.I. weapons will be built; it is who will build them and for what purpose. Our adversaries will not pause to indulge in theatrical debates about the merits of developing technologies with critical military and national security applications. They will proceed. 6. National service should be a universal duty. We should, as a society, seriously consider moving away from an all-volunteer force and only fight the next war if everyone shares in the risk and the cost. 7. If a U.S. Marine asks for a better rifle, we should build it; and the same goes for software. We should as a country be capable of continuing a debate about the appropriateness of military action abroad while remaining unflinching in our commitment to those we have asked to step into harm’s way. 8. Public servants need not be our priests. Any business that compensated its employees in the way that the federal government compensates public servants would struggle to survive. 9. We should show far more grace towards those who have subjected themselves to public life. The eradication of any space for forgiveness—a jettisoning of any tolerance for the complexities and contradictions of the human psyche—may leave us with a cast of characters at the helm we will grow to regret. 10. The psychologization of modern politics is leading us astray. Those who look to the political arena to nourish their soul and sense of self, who rely too heavily on their internal life finding expression in people they may never meet, will be left disappointed. 11. Our society has grown too eager to hasten, and is often gleeful at, the demise of its enemies. The vanquishing of an opponent is a moment to pause, not rejoice. 12. The atomic age is ending. One age of deterrence, the atomic age, is ending, and a new era of deterrence built on A.I. is set to begin. 13. No other country in the history of the world has advanced progressive values more than this one. The United States is far from perfect. But it is easy to forget how much more opportunity exists in this country for those who are not hereditary elites than in any other nation on the planet. 14. American power has made possible an extraordinarily long peace. Too many have forgotten or perhaps take for granted that nearly a century of some version of peace has prevailed in the world without a great power military conflict. At least three generations — billions of people and their children and now grandchildren — have never known a world war. 15. The postwar neutering of Germany and Japan must be undone. The defanging of Germany was an overcorrection for which Europe is now paying a heavy price. A similar and highly theatrical commitment to Japanese pacifism will, if maintained, also threaten to shift the balance of power in Asia. 16. We should applaud those who attempt to build where the market has failed to act. The culture almost snickers at Musk’s interest in grand narrative, as if billionaires ought to simply stay in their lane of enriching themselves . . . . Any curiosity or genuine interest in the value of what he has created is essentially dismissed, or perhaps lurks from beneath a thinly veiled scorn. 17. Silicon Valley must play a role in addressing violent crime. Many politicians across the United States have essentially shrugged when it comes to violent crime, abandoning any serious efforts to address the problem or take on any risk with their constituencies or donors in coming up with solutions and experiments in what should be a desperate bid to save lives. 18. The ruthless exposure of the private lives of public figures drives far too much talent away from government service. The public arena—and the shallow and petty assaults against those who dare to do something other than enrich themselves—has become so unforgiving that the republic is left with a significant roster of ineffectual, empty vessels whose ambition one would forgive if there were any genuine belief structure lurking within. 19. The caution in public life that we unwittingly encourage is corrosive. Those who say nothing wrong often say nothing much at all. 20. The pervasive intolerance of religious belief in certain circles must be resisted. The elite’s intolerance of religious belief is perhaps one of the most telling signs that its political project constitutes a less open intellectual movement than many within it would claim. 21. Some cultures have produced vital advances; others remain dysfunctional and regressive. All cultures are now equal. Criticism and value judgments are forbidden. Yet this new dogma glosses over the fact that certain cultures and indeed subcultures . . . have produced wonders. Others have proven middling, and worse, regressive and harmful. 22. We must resist the shallow temptation of a vacant and hollow pluralism. We, in America and more broadly the West, have for the past half century resisted defining national cultures in the name of inclusivity. But inclusion into what?

@HimugLamuh great weekend for smart chain exploiters, holy smokes

remember how it was a couple weeks ago when the gov of canada published a big paper about how aave was a food idea? it is, they were right, just probably not with every single kind of imaginable token and coin

@mycoliza can't beat finned heatsink housing

sorry but “industrial PC” means a very different thing

@CWood_sdf @specialkdelslay Apparently they've only put them in the major, central shipping lanes. Leaving the smaller northern lane clear of the mines so they can have their controlled traffic through there. Such a stupid mess.

@shifkey @specialkdelslay I think mines being in the straight is a lil dubious js because iran has to get their friends oil ships through

So... is the strait of hormuz open or closed, rn? feels like they have discovered the fun of messing with the markets & do a modicum of trollin

@CryptoCyberia Imagine not adding granny on Steam. Wtf wrong with these people

Incredible stuff. Imagine thinking your grandma is dead, but in reality, she's just gaming too hard to answer the phone.
