I’d need a reason to use Edge. If it used a different browser engine, that would be a compelling reason.

Thats the description of both Vivaldi and Brave browsers, which also haven’t out-Chromed Chrome. Both are Chrome engine with built in ad blockers.

Hey Microsoft, how about innovating instead? Edge is a Chrome engine browser like dozens of others out there. Why not write a new browser engine to give customers a choice? Or at worst, how about contract with Apple to license Webkit bringing a third solid choice for a browser engine to Windows. You’re not going to out-Chrome Google Chrome browser, so stop trying.

Ifs been awhile since I’ve seen the first DS9 episode, but wasn’t the assignment to of Sisko to DS9 supposed to be a low burden job? He’s lost his wife at Wolf359 and was raising a young son by himself. It just turned into a hotbed of interest with the discovery of the worm hole.

“evil maid” attacks need to be renamed to “evil students” attack.

Well, I’m running Asahi Linux on a Macbook which can’t boot from USB even if I wanted to.

However, if you’re really worried about state-level threat actors, like FBI or CIA, I don’t believe there is much you could do to protect yourself anyway. They likely have entire catalogs of unpublished and undisclosed side-band attack exploits they could draw from to gain access to your machine and execute a privilege escalation to install whatever they want.

For some reason its very popular in Asia, according to my partner who is Thai and 23 years old.

Facebook subsidized mobile internet access specifically to facebook properties for a decade or so in many parts of the world. If you went to Google.com you’d get charged for mobile data. if you went to any Facebook company sites, it was free data. This is also why Whatapp is so embedded in many parts of the world. Text messages were charged, while Whatapp messages were free.

Even India assassinated a Canadian on Canadian soil. .

For ARM Linux comparison, I ran the Speedometer 3.0 benchmark the author uses on my daily driver Macbook Air M2 (24GB RAM) running Asahi Linux Fedora Remix 42 (KDE). I used FF 149 which is just what I had installed. It scored 22.0 which apparently was better than this Zenbook and even beat out several Ryzen 7 and Core i7 offerings:

A used M2 Air with my spec mine (24GB RAM 2TB SSD) is $800-$900, which is a fraction of the $1600 Asus wants for their slower unit new, but the Asus does have more RAM.

I like seeing more ARM based Linux laptops.

They are shitting out what you feed them. If you feed them garbage, you get garbage in return.

This is the missing conceptual understanding that probably 90% of LLM users lack. They really don’t know how LLMs work, and treat them like AGI. Sadly this includes adult policy makers in our society too. Efforts like those of these these researchers act to educate the public. I’m hopeful this will spark some critical thinking on the part of regular, otherwise ignorant, LLM users.

That’s a serious breach of ethics and morals. Feeding false information to an LLM is no different that a magazine.

Hang on. Are you suggesting its unethical/immoral to lie to a machine?

Additionally, the authors didn’t submit the article to a magazine as factual. They posted the articles on a preprint server which can be very questionable anyway as there is no peer review. The machine chose to ignore rigor and treat them as fact.

I give you… “The Grant Money Printing machine!”

Need a grant? Create a disease and submit a paper. Then write a grant asking for money to solve your invented disease.

Also, don’t pretend that the Democrats oppose this war on moral grounds.

They generally oppose it on economic grounds at least. I’ll take the outcome of “no war” even if I disagree with the reason we get there.

I’m assuming Kennedy’s brain worm wants to delay/suppress this report because it is factual evidence against the brain worm narrative that vaccines are bad.

Shuttle was always a Low Earth Orbit craft. It was never designed or capable of even a flight to the moon, much less another planet.

infinite resources for capitalism to exploit.

That is potentially still alive with robotic missions for orbital asteroid capture and mining.

I walked outside last night looking up at the sky and knew for the first time in my life there were people circling the Moon right then. It was a profound feeling.

The narrative of space colonization just doesn’t sell to me.

For me one of the most important parts of human spaceflight is working as a constant reminder of how hard it is to keep humans alive outside of Earth. It should work to underscore that we only have one Earth and there is no realistic “plan B”. Without human spaceflight we could get complacent and just think we can find another home for humanity. When we see live on video feeds how much it takes for just 4 humans for a week or so to live off Earth and close to the moon the illusion of an alternative to Earth shatters.

but I’d argue this is only because alternatives have been too effectively suppressed by the sociopaths benefiting from the status quo.

Can you talk about what are those effective alternatives that have been suppressed you are referring to as a replacement for the current IP scheme?
