The most immaculate well researched pickles ever seen.
But I’m getting bored, I should learn how to write, or maybe draw, or maybe dance.
No I got it, I’ll shift my focus to an obscure Github program I’m using to test a weird thought I had!
I’ll finish this burger later…
I have an SSD for my OS, but a large HDD for my games. It really starts to show as textures take a long time to load in.
I likely would but my computer’s from 2016 with no upgrades, so I’m on the cusp of building a new one from scratch.
After I do that though the old one’s becoming a linux server for sure.
Edit: Hmm, everyone telling me about their massive performance boosts is making me consider pulling the trigger and migrating my current computer.
I already planned on my next computer being Linux Mint, but it’s getting more and more desired as time goes on.
I was playing Elden Ring when it began stuttering, turns out Windows Defender was just constantly reading the disk (I still have a hard drive). Finally turned off maximum priority (seemingly random) scans in task scheduler when I began stuttering again. This time it was Windows Compatibility Telemetry taking up 50% of the disk, until I finally found a way to turn that off.
It’d be so nice to have an OS that doesn’t run random unnecessary things without your permission.
With streaming services they’re proving it’s not viable to run a resource hog of a service with a measly monthly subscription.
With social media they’re proving it’s not viable to run a resource hog of a service for free, even with advertisement.
So naturally the best plan to monetize AI is to run a resource hog of a service with a measly monthly subscription and a free version without advertisements. /s
Don’t know if this has been fixed but Gemini was telling people it’s unethical to teach people C++ or memory management.
Because it’s considered “memory unsafe” but Gemini took it literally and considered it to unsafe to teach.
Unfortunately the spam arms race has destroyed any chance of search going back to the good ole days. SEO and AI content farms means we’ll need a whole new system to categorize webpages, as well as filter out human sounding but low effort spam.
Point being, it’s no longer enough to find a page that’s relevant to the topic, it has to be relevant and actually deliver information, which currently the only feasible tech that can differentiate those is LLMs.
Can’t wait for FOSS brain implants, it would still be hellish but a fun kind of hellish.
I want someone like Linus Torvalds to verbally abuse someone for not understanding basic computational neuroscience.
I’m curious, is there actually so many 42’s in the system? (more than 69 sounds unlikely)
What if the LLM is getting tripped up because 42 is always referred to as the answer to “the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything”.
So you ask it a question like give a number between 1-100, it answers 42 because that’s the answer to “Everything”, according to it’s training data.
Something similar happened to Gemini. Google discouraged Gemini from giving unsafe advice because it’s unethical. Then Gemini refused to answer questions about C++ because it’s considered “unsafe” (referring to memory management). But Gemini thinks C++ is “unsafe” (the normal meaning), therefore it’s unethical. It’s like those jailbreak tricks but from its own training set.

If you want barebones Windows I’d suggest you cough cough obtain Windows 10 LTSC.
It’s got most the bloatware cut out, you just have to reenable the old style picture viewer.
Though when I eventually make a new PC, I’m probably just gonna use Linux Mint because I hear running Windows games/software isn’t nearly as bad nowadays, thanks Steam.
May I introduce you to our lord and savior JavaScript?
That’s simultaneously funny and depressing.
Ring ding ding, winner!
