I think the only thing to keep in mind is that Nvidias proprietary drivers work better for Linux whereas for AMD it is the open-source ones.

I have an Nvidia card and the prop. drivers have worked flawlessly for me for years.

I know the open source drivers are closing the gap for Nvidia, and they also seem to be playing ball on that front. But for AMD the open source drivers are definitely the way to go from what I understand.

This was already quite a significant challenge compared to socketed RAM, but now with Lunar Lake I guess this is simply impossible? The RAM chips are colocated with the CPU…

You only mention your laptop is running out of space so you need to get a new computer? does your laptop have a soldered SSD? If that’s not the case, I think the reflex should first be to see what storage you can get your laptop so that you can keep using it rather than discarding it :(

im not sure this applies to Switzerland but Framework now allows freight forwarding within the EU it seems (it also seems recent as most older discussion says it was prohibited).

Also, I think a delivery to Switzerland is not too far out as they have finalized a keyboard layout a while ago and this is a necessary step before delivery.

(Notice how there is Sweden in that list which is now available for a laptop to order too officially).

I’m hoping these countries get expanded to soon!

infomaniak is the largest swiss cloud provider, they have multiple services which are domain related (purchase and management), cloud computing and more. They have a good reputation. They also have a swiss cloud certificated meaning they are able to host data in Switzerland and manage it from Switzerland. If you trust Switzerland for privacy, I think by extension you can trust them.

We had captchas to solve that a while ago. Turns out, some people are willing to be paid a miserable salary to solve the captchas for bots. How would this be different? The fact of being a human becomes a monetizable service which can just be rented out for automated systems. No “personhood” check can prevent this.

I question why anyone would have a monopole or exclusive right to a topic of conversation :)

But I actually disagree due to another fundamental point: USA politics are in fact involving and impacting the rest of the world. The USA leads NATO and has previously threatened to drop it, as well as the WHO, they get involved (sometimes violently) in foreign affairs (afghanistan). They are a huge economic market to which many foreign companies try to sell or get funding. They are the biggest stock exchange (still today I guess).

The influence of the USA exceeds its borders since quite a while now. It is only normal for people to feel involved, despite not being from the USA. Same with Russia, same with China.

In the deep learning community, I know of someone using parquet for the dataset and annotations. It allows you to select which data you want to retrieve from the dataset and stream only those, and nothing else. It is a rather effective method for that if you have many different annotations for different use cases and want to be able to select only the ones you need for your application.

I would be concerned that a market would take place, where money could be made selling them, creating more incentives to acquire skulls… you see where this is going?

I think early last year they hyped some potential partnership to have a custom grapheneOS device, anyone know what happened to that?

I’m sorry, what? That does not make sense to me.

I would like to simultaneously better organize, rename and move my ISO files while still being able to seed them. How do people do both? my download folder is not where I want to keep my iso files for consumption and the often cryptic names of iso files can be annoying to navigate and manage so how can this be improved without sacrificing seeding? thanks!

whether you’re right or not, it’s just so frustrating to imagine that something you may have been playing for another hundreds of hours is just totally unaccesible from now on… so frustrating and so unfair… Definitely worthy of a refund in my book.

Because the boss thinks it sounds cool and doesn’t want to be the only kid in the block without an AI product to sell.

Exactly. The Carter center already witnessed the previous election and was unable to determine Maduro as winner. The elections already happened, the people already voted. Why would a new election be excepted to yield any other result than what happened?

I think it exists and works but that its simply not in their best interest to have people use it and be found out that they used chatgpt, for OpenAI’s business/profit potential. I have nothing to back it up but have just lost all faith in OpenAI.

Serious question: how does North Korea train “imposter IT pros”? Are these people working for the government who get access to the www? How do they then develop the skills to be selected as such in the first place? What kind of programming experience us taught in NK?

I’m still shocked around 30% of the population still voted for Maduro… I can imagine all people benefiting from the current government did, but that’s certainly not 30% of the population, is it? So there are still many who actually buy the lies and conspiracies of Maduro? Crazy…

I can very much imagine this being a short to medium term issue (and still an existential threat to Mozilla), but hopefully, this improves the situation to the point that there is no future company like google who artificially maintains control over browsers and search engines, rendering competitors dependent on these massive contracts? I mean, this is what got them there, right?
