Good excuse to lay off without paying unemployment while power-tripping. That's all these kinds of things usually are about.

LLMs for code completion cause me more button presses and clicks to ignore them over standard code completion and the chat doesn't help people who think logically and conceptually only ones who think verbally. So, it's useless to me.

I have m.2 hats for the couple of raspberry pis that need more intense disk operations. Never use SD cards or flash drives, which generally end up being just SD cards in a USB package.

The fact that my Facebook timeline had become a pretty steady ratio of 1 ad:1 suggested post which is essentially an ad):1 post from either someone I follow, a group post from a group I'm in, or a post from an account that I liked or a few other ad-like types of posts, meant I only saw content I wanted on one or two posts out if every 20 or so posts in my timeline and I rarely saw important posts from friends. That was one of many reasons I left last year.

Yeah just meant the ones ive seen in China that looked similar didn't have flushing mechanisms much like the urinals that don't need to be flushed. Those ones aren't suitable fir pooping, but sounds like this one is different.

OK the white ones like that that I had seen a couple of times didn't have a flushing mechanism or big enough opening to aim, so if someone pooped in it, it would just sit there until someone came to clean it.

Squat toilets are usually either a pit or like this one that's basically a floor mounted urinal that almost anyone can use. So yeah, can't poop in a urinal. But sucks when they're all that pubic restrooms have.

I don't have a YouTube account and my pihole ad blocking gets me bkocked, is there an article it references? Also, what's the kWh to cubic feet/meters ratio compared to current lithium ion?

Or maybe stop "AI" from sucking down gobs of power for no good reason other than to steal content and waste websites' bandwidth that specifically say not to crawl them.

I mean, even if the NPU space can't be replaced by more useful components easily or cheaply, just removing it is sure to save a small amount of power which equates to a possibly not so small amount of heat that needs to be dissipated, which takes not insignificant amounts of and/or requires slowing the system down. Additionally, the pathways likely could be placed to create less interference with each other and direct heat transfer which is likely to mean more stability overall.

Of course without a comparable processor without the NPU to compare to, these are really difficult things to quantify, but are true of nearly all compact chips on power sensitive platforms.

Yes, but I'm saying they're making these laws and saying they need it. Many people agree that they need it and because they think they are still secure because they're using an "encrypted connection", assuming they don't think they need to be secure from their government, they are supporting it. If they see that by letting the government steal their data they are also letting that scammer that keeps scamming their grandmother for her credit card to get that credit card number without even needing to scam her anymore, they may think twice about supporting the policy.

Oh totally, but that's the intended purpose. The thing is they're saying they can do all that and still allow people to have a secure connection to their bank or whatever, but that's impossible. Eventually, backdoors always lead to making the security worthless whether it's bad design like putting hinge screws outside of the door so thrives can just use a screwdriver to remove the door, or a backdoor for locksmiths or government, it's a weak link it doesn't matter how thick the door is if a screwdriver removes it or how hard the encryption is to break if it can be bypassed by getting the code used by locksmiths or government, bad actors will get ahold of it and use it.

Problem is scraper bots are way more aggressive and harder to block. If they were ignoring Reddit because they were taking content from IA but IA is willing to obey robots.txt whereas scraper bots are not, they just shifted the load of serving the bots or playing whack-a-mole with their block evading mechanisms. They aren't going to stop the bots. It may result in being able to negotiate a license with the bigger guys, but that's likely not going to make up for the money they spend on dealing with the bots in the long run. Of course companies like this don't really think long term, it just looks good to investors this quarter.
