For stealth

I have had the most issues with Nvidia gpus. Have you double checked it didn’t go back to the open source drivers after an update? Sometimes you need to download the proprietary drivers from Nvidia’s website after every kernel update.

Are you on an Nvidia gpu?

The distinction between AI and GenAI is like the difference between eating and cannibalism; one contains the other, but there’s still a meaningful distinction.

Generative AI produces text or images by leveraging huge neural networks weighted by tons and tons of training data. It’s fundamentally a system of guesses and vibes.

Machine learning in general is often much more precise. The model finding early cancer in scans isn’t just guessing the next word, it’s running the image through a series of precisely tuned layers.

The industry term for the distinction is supervised vs unsupervised learning.

They never should have ripped the solar panels off the Whitehouse.

Russia did start it, that’s why the Minsk Accords were a thing to begin with. You’re the one pretending history starts at some politically convenient point.

Ukraine is a distinct nation with its own culture, language, history and art. They should be free to self govern, not be conquered by a neighbor. There is no justification for Russia’s invasion, it’s a genocide.

Russia started the war and they have the power to end it. That’s not ‘warmongering’ it’s the only path to lasting peace. Fuck war, fuck Putin.

When lead combines with acid it creates lead acetate which interacts with the sugar receptors in the mouth. I’m not sure why, I think the molecules just happen to have a similar shape.

EDIT: after looking at the molecule for lead acetate, it appears to resemble two simple carbohydrates connected by an atom of lead, so I’d imagine the receptor sees the outside and assumes it’s something sweet.

I don’t understand how that’s blame, it’s a natural outcome. If I said ‘carrying a nestle water bottle has the effect of promoting the brand, even if you didn’t pay for it’ that doesn’t mean I’m blaming people for drinking water, it’s just an observation about the power of branding.

I’m not blaming anyone, I’m just investing my energies in other things. I have plans for after she dies, but as long as she can draw a profit form the brand I would personally rather boycott it.

Same, it was a good instance.

I used to be of that opinion, but after a series of conversations about it I came around to the idea that any engagement, even non-commercial, has the effect of promoting the brand.

I’m just waiting for her to die so we can do like Lovecraft and enjoy the books while hating the author.
