I would lo to be able to justify buying a 1500€ vr set. But using it for one or two games does not make the threshold for me.

I hope they make more really good games so it become justifiable.

By played hours the Binding Of Isaac probably.

By impact in my heart Metal Gear Solid.

I remember managing to install two DE one above the other, and having them, somehow working at the exact same time. That was trippy.

I didn’t even know how I did it. I’m pretty sure that I couldn’t replicate that on purpose.

Eurolinux with EU Commission funding would hit hard.

They are as useful as the Large Hadron Collider, or the New Horizons probe.

They are instruments of practical scientific research. They may have some return in useful technology or not, but science is always worth it.

Many people in lemmy is highly primitivist and tech conservatives. Meaning that they don’t actually want any technological progress.

Quantum computer do exist. And have existed for some time now. Breakthroughs have been achieved several times.

That guy is a moron.

But AI assistance in taxes is also being introduced where I live (Spain which is currently being government by a coalition of socialist parties).

Still not deployed so I couldn’t say how it will work. But preliminary info seems promising. They are going to use a publicly trained AI project that has already being released.

The thing is that I don’t think that precisely that is a Musk idea. It’s something that have been probably been talked about various tax agencies in the world in the latest years. The probably is just parroting the idea and giving them project to one of his billionaire friends.

In Spain we trained an AI using a mix of public resources available for AI training and public resources (legislation, congress sessions, etc). And the AI turned out quite good. Obviously not top of the line, but very good overall.

It was a public project not a private company.

Because an AI is not a human brain?

It’s impressive how the technology have advanced in the last years. But obviously it is not a human brain.

Let’s put it in simpler terms. Imagine it’s a French made move and meta just ripped it and it’s selling it back in the web.

As soon as that product, the riped french movie, is available in France for sale they are selling it through their French branch, which would be breaking French law on French soil, thus could be easily prosecuted.

If they do not comply they could be lawfully ban from operating on France.

Haven’t you seen what happened with twitter in Brazil?

That’s not how international companies work. They ARE in France.

Your annoyance does not pay the bills though. You are annoying yourself for nothing.

If you talk like that no one is going to want to talk with you.

What the hell did you just write, accusing me of antisemitism?

It’s really hard to even understand what you are talking about, really.

The sacrifices? The slaughter? The jews? The nobility? Shilling? Pogroms? Roblox Minecraft and graphics cards? A supposedly academic level knowledge of LLM but calling them autocorrect?

I’m not going to follow this conversation. That’s just my decision right now.

Autocorrect what the fuck? Models inherently conservative, wtf?

You show a vast lack of knowledge. Probably your source of information is just propaganda.

I know it’s an easy fight to pick. A trending dogma which is easy to support. You don’t really need to think, you just got pointed an easy enemy that’s easy to identify, and that’s easy to just be against and you follow that.

But the true enemy is not there.

Your heart is probably in the good place. But if you waste your strength fighting something useless is an incredible wasted of resources and spirit. You’ll achieve nothing, while the true enemy (which are human beings that doesn’t care about AI being a success or not) will keep laughing at you.

They have been oppressing you since before electricity. If you think AI is a tool needed for oppression you are deeply wrong.

Software have been implied in decision making for decades.

Anyway, the true responsible of a denial in a medical treatment has never been account responsible (except for our angel Luigi), no matter if AI has been used or not.

I don’t really know how it’s better a human denying you a kidney rather than a AI.

It’s not like it’s something that makes more or less kidneys available for transplant anyway.

Terrible example.

It would have been better to make an example out of some other treatment that does not depend on finite recourses but only in money. Still, a human is now rejecting your needed treatments without the need of an AI, but at least it would make some sense.

In the end, as always, people who has chosen the AI as the “enemy” have not understand anything about the current state of society and how things work. Another example of how picking the wrong fights is a path to failure.

Discord is where knowledge goes to die.

I never understood why people chose that as a meeting place for communities knowing that all the knowledge thrown in there is useless.

That’s not tech. That’s company policies.

Streaming services, as a tech has evolved and it’s a better technology that it was before. New encoding formats allow for transfer of more data over less bandwidth for instance.

Online communications, as in forums as such, as also evolved with new and better ways of posting, and better security (I remember when websites just stored your password in plain text).

What people complain about are mostly company policies, not technology. Netflix charging more for less content, or Reddit banning third party apps are not tech. Those things are not developed. They are just a company decision.

And company decisions are as bad as always. People also got screw by companies in the 90s. People who just notice more now is because now they are older.

Not everyone wants to socially interact. That’s something to respect.

I tend to prioritize not-human services, as social interaction exhaust me.

When I used to work with customers I really didn’t like when people starting talking about unnecessary staff. The less I had to interact the better for me.
