Well there's all the problems then

Asking a AAA studio to make their game sub 128 GB AND optimize it in anyway is a tall ask

[–] nagaram@startrek.website 2 points 2 months ago (5 children)

Do they even make disks with enough space for a modern game? Secondly, would a spinning disk be fast enough for it?

I feel like the only way for truly physical media in the AAA space to be a thing again is if people are willing to pay an extra $60+ for an external SSD that holds the game.

What's happening in Ukraine sucks

That doesn't contradict the sentiment that borders are generally arbitrary lines designed to divide us.

Using a Russian sure to get free books doesn't hurt Ukraine unless these are all like infected with Russian turbo malware or something

I ultimately agree with a lot of communism and as such I'm probably more likely to agree with the average Tankie than most people.

And with that disclaimer, yeah kinda it has aided them in doing that.

They created a reddit alternative that has a "default server" as it were. And they have the ability to admin that source of information to tailor to their specific ideological needs.

But is it effective in a grander scheme? That's pretty debatable.

I want someone to prove his LLM can be as insightful and accurate as paid one.

Are you using LLMs as search engines?

Bold.

I use Gemma, LLama 3.2, and Deepseek to either fix formatting, summarize documentation to give me commands for Linux software, and write simple code structure for me to refine into working code.

Sure it takes longer to generate than a cloud compute would, but

  1. privacy obviously. I know you dismissed it but that's really the biggest reason anyone will have.

  2. this feels better environmentally. I actually don't know if that's true, but it objectively touches less computers for such simple tasks. It would be wasteful of infrastructure to do it over the web.

  3. it's just cooler to have a conversation with my computer. I've learned a lot about how the whole process works and that's more valuable to me as a non dev than just getting the end results.

My "production" home lab is 3 Optiplex 3050 with i7-7700. They work great and are pretty low power.

Its how you can tell PDP fans weren't paying attention. He promoted it a few times but it didn't gain any traction and he abandoned it.

Or maybe it just didn't help with the fascism allegations from the bridge moment and the Fiverr incidents since those all happened about the same time.

Hell, he had Ben Shapiro host an episode of LWIAY. Sure it wasn't peak genocide apologizer we have now Benny Boy, but he was still a verifiable dick head grifter.

That was among the most brain rot tier shit I've ever seen.

He's also promoted the books of fascist talking heads like Jordan Peterson, Ben Shapiro, and Steven Crowder through his book club.

There's a reason the Christ Church shooter yelled "Subscribe to PewDiePie" besides being a topical meme.
