Also you can actually see the stars and can hold a regular sleep schedule unlike in summer where it never actually gets beyond twilight

I think intel support it (or at least a translation layer) but there's no motivation for Nvidia to standardise to something open-source as the status quo works pretty well

Yeah true, plus I bought my a770 at pretty much half price during the whole driver issues and so eventually got a 3070 performing card for like $250, which is an insane deal for me but no way intel made anything on it after all the rnd and production costs

The main reason Intel can't compete is the fact CUDA is both proprietary and the industry standard, if you want to use a library you have to translate it yourself which is kind of inconvenient and no datacentre is going to go for that

And here I was thinking Arc and storage were the only semi-competitive wings of intel... They just needed a couple of years for adoption to increase

can't ban pages anymore with https, and while they don't want to be lumped in with the authoritarian states that ban all on Wikipedia, they are like them at heart

The point of sanctions is to make it harder to run a country, part of that is making the citizens angry with the government

They don't target Russians outside of Russia, and do target non-Russians in Russia, because they're meant to actually be somewhat effective rather than just inciting hate

What model and prompt are you using to get a bag of x?

I tried to make a goldfish in a bag and a bag of brown leaves with multiple sdxl checkpoints at various times and it either put a handbag next to the target or straight up ignored it

you could always symlink .Trash to /dev/null if you don't care about potential accidents

The UK's average energy price is high, but it's also very variable as when it's cloudy and calm 20% of demand needs to be imported from France/Norway so wholesale energy is very expensive, but when it's sunny and windy wholesale energy is free or even at negative cost and 20% of generation gets exported to France/Norway, where their energy is more expensive

If you have the option to run datacentres at minimal or even negative energy cost maybe 20% of the time, then shift load elsewhere the rest of the time, then that may be a reasonable proposition

I'd love to see Bing or Qwant or Yandex (to be honest ideally Bing as they share their index) get a similar deal for StackOverflow or Github just to give Google a taste of their own medicine now

If you're in the UK or I expect EU, I imagine if it's due to oxidation you can get it replaced even on an expired warranty as it's a defect which was known to either you or intel before the warranty expired, and a manufacturing defect rather than breaking from use, so intel are pretty much in a corner about having sold you faulty shit

I'm fairly sure to get my current job my resumé was just an unformatted txt file, imagine using formatting

Meta exist to make a profit, however they're never going to be able to advertise to most people in the fediverse, who also happen to be some of the most knowledgeable people in some fields. If they accept that they're never going to be able to advertise to those people, they go for the next best thing: monetising their content. Some here may rightfully have an issue with a corporation monetising their content, however by federating with the fediverse and being the first company able to monetise the content within it, Meta have a vested interest in not extinguishing the fediverse.

Complain about their privacy violations or them monetising content they don't generate as much as you want, but remember they're smart & money hungry, and the smartest thing they can do in their position is to make money out of people they otherwise wouldn't be able to.
