It's just as crazy as saying "We don't need math, because every problem can be described using human language".

In other words, that might be true as long as your problem is not complex enough to be able to be understood using human language.

You want to solve a real problem? It's way more complex with so many moving parts you can't just take LLM to solve it, because that takes an actual understanding of a problem.

It's funny, I buy Apple Car specifically so that that I can't decide where I want to go. At work we MDM and Apple's approach isn't for everyone, but forcing something like choosing their destination simply isn't the right choice for all types of users.

I'm all for encouraging them to be on the right side of Right-to-Repair, labor laws, and environmental best practices. But I left the world of thinking where I want to go and choice for the Apple Car's tight lockdowns. At first I still couldn't help myself but to try to go around wherever I wanted with my first Apple Car or two, then I stoped that also.

Apple Car's filtered possible destinations are all I need, so I don't see why anyone would ever want to go any other place.

24.04 won't have Plasma 6, but 24.10 will. In other words, fall 2024.

Or you can use KDE Neon, which is basically Ubuntu LTS, but with the newest Plasma.

All of these functionalities can be provided by a simple WebSocket + REST server. The car connects to the WebSocket, and you can access these functionalities from your phone either with WebSockets or regular HTTP requests.

Cheapest servers with backend written in JS can easily handle thousands of WebSocket connections, and written in Go tens of thousands WebSocket connections. They would not ever need like over 100 of these servers GLOBALLY, which would cost them around $3000 monthly.

That's the price of 60 subscriptions, which is freaking ridiculous.

You realize that maintaining a server that would allow that costs pennies?

You wouldn't pay $150 for a lollipop, but somehow people think this is ok.

This problem exists exactly because of people like you, thinking it's OK to pay for the features you already paid for.

You mentioned you changed firewall rules for that device. Any chance you have set outbound rule instead of inbound rule?

Anyway, what's the output of ip route?

[–] gornius@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Mainly GTG response time and latency. For watching movies it's generally not a problem, but when it comes to playing games with a mouse, latency can be a huge issue, and bad GTG response time leads to smearing.

But yeah, 4x the price is ridiculous.

And as always, DRMs fuck only legitimate customers, and pirates can watch anywhere at full quality.

That's one of the reasons I don't feel bad about pirating any more. Not even the cost, but the fact that if you pay you're going to have a worse experience.

Am I too 1Gb/s fiber connected to understand that?

[–] gornius@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

At least the performance gap somewhat justified the price. The other cards, mainly 4060 got little to no performance upgrade, yet cost more.

https://www.oracle.com/cloud/free/

There are tutorials on youtube on how to create a VM and set up a firewall for external access.

If you're lucky enough to successfully create an account on Oracle Cloud, you can also try Oracle Cloud Free Tier. You can have free ARM64 x4 CPU and 24 GiB RAM totally free of charge. There might be problems with availability during VM registration, but there are scripts that automate spamming for checking every 80 seconds.

I've been using it for 2 years and it's great. However be aware that your VM might get erased if you have a free account. That too can be remedied if you update to a premium subscription (You still get Free Tier resources without a charge). Nobody has reported an erased VM on a premium plan yet.

Still, I am pretty sure they can erase it if you do illegal stuff with it. I've been using it only to host Minecraft Server, as well as other services using Docker. So far so good.
