Or maybe they assume it will SkyNet us and use as as batteries so who gaf

See your point but it becomes a bit 1984 if you follow my drift

Yeah its not as bad as reddit (yet). Problem is any authoritarian state can easily use an LLM to create profiles, comment on unrelated posts, then spew the most vitriolic propaganda and downvote any voices of reason.

Dont fuck it up, OP (narrator: he did.)

I mean it makes sense spending $30-40k on a cyber company to decrypt it, still way cheaper than the ransom. Also we shouldnt give money to criminals. Probably just funds the war on Ukraine

Kind of belittles Tiananmen square

If youre renting in regional areas, they probably have no interest in making it energy efficient as they probably think that’s “woke”. Speak to your agent about insulation at the very least.

Sounds like youre in a poorly insulated dwelling. By comparison, I’m in a 14 year old apartment in Melbourne and hardly needed the heater this winter. Its got a heat pump air con / heater so heating / cooling not expensive

I empathise with that, I really do. Our govt (Oz) have introduced an office of AI and relatively strict restrictions on data centres.

The cynic in me says SkyNet is already here and we’re just sitting ducks.

Wow thanks dude who “knows what he is talking about” (or not) lol

Ha, i did not. Did not like windows 8 either. Old enough to remember BeOS and OS/2

Downvoters put forwqrd your well though out and researched arguments in reply!

Then we would have many horses…?

Q1 2023 wasn’t that long ago. Theres still plenty of reasonably priced laptops with 16GB and even 32GB RAM available (not apple). If I was buying a new laptop I would snap up a 32GB ram model however I’m not looking for a budget laptop obviously.

I’m not sure if any of those comments are completely true. Primarily, it’s a business product for enterprises thats backwards compatible with a lot of legacy software.

I’m running it on a relatively old Ryzen 3600 on a B450 motherboard and have never had issues with speed. Games and productivity apps run smoothly.

Its funny that Apple was getting slaughtered on Reddit not long ago for still releasing laptops with 8GB RAM before the apocalypse till they released a laptop running on a mobile phone processor at a lower price point.

Security has been significantly improved with Windows 11 with the use of TPM (see link). Apple has their own version of TPM and stops supporting older chips all the time.

The CoPilot “nightmare” is an overwhelming meme started by edge lords on reddit. You dont have to use it. I sometimes use it, and keep Claude open in another window in free mode.

Probably the opposite. He’s been supported by Twitter and Facebook

Lol

Gosh, thats a coincidence
