Hell yeah. I tried to train one to feed me misinformation and encourage bad habits like drinking and driving and it was a lot more fun and lively than anything else I’ve seen

Yeah I feel like having control over the things you use is definitely a big part. Something that really hampers my enthusiasm for AI is that so much of it is out of my control and generally disconnected from me.

Having AI that I can modify and run locally on my devices seems a lot more sci-fi than something that can relies so heavily on the Internet and rigid responses.

I find it’s a lot of those ideal use cases I find futuristic. The RISC V architecture and Briar are kind of similar. They’re really neat and I could see some cyberpunk style uses for them but the drive for their adoption and the level of it just doesn’t seem to be there yet.

I feel like that really depends on how you view futuristic.

I think things with colored e-ink displays, USB C chargeable AA batteries, handheld emulators, 2230 NVMe drives, and USB C power portable displays are really cool but I feel like their availability these days has made them lose a bit of their futuristic luster. They would have blown my mind when I was a kid.

More niche products like Meshtastic and ESP32 Marauder devices are things I view as futuristic (and can be found for under $100).

Yeah. I feel like the headline also misrepresented the extent of what happened.

But the firm rejected claims about the extent of the damage caused by the unnamed individual, saying they “contain some exaggerations and inaccuracies”

Is probably the key takeaway and a good summary of what the article is about

I don’t think it’s a bad idea. I’ve used a lot of controllers in the past that have felt worse than the controls on Anbernics handhelds. If they are willing to switch things up and breakaway from the typical from the typical Switch Pro controller look a lot of third party companies use I think it could be cool

For those that want some additional details Brodie Robertson created a video on what was happening 3 weeks ago on how things were going into the lead up to this. Here’s the link. It’s 16 minutes long and kind of funny. It shows how mismanaged things were from the beginning

Correct but it can be used to flash Libreboot on devices like the ThinkPad I mentioned in the title.

I’m asking if this configuration would be effective considering I’ve heard of people having issues with longer wires causing problems. Adding jumpers and a breadboard is just adding to that length.

Definitely annoying if you like to journal that kind of stuff. I’ve thought about putting a notebook next to my bed

Mind linking it? I went there recently and didn’t see any air filters.

I guess that’s something I should be more forward with. I don’t really know what I am trying to filter out. I feel like my apartment can feel stuffy at times and agitate my sinuses but that may have to do with my AC unit pumping largely unfiltered air from the a busy downtown area into my unit

Thanks for the link. Very neat

Did it melt or something?

The lack of interest in it even amongst tech communities and bridges (they can link Matrix servers and Discord servers) constantly being down has kept me from giving Matrix a second chance.

I think it was a Linux gaming community last time that got flooded with hate content after the bridge went down and the Matrix side was left to itself.

If I’m in the room there’s a strong chance a computer is on. I don’t use my phone a lot at home so most of my entertainment and time is spent on it

Totally. I feel like it’s just more prevalent stereotypically among the right.
