@arstechnica To be clear, it is impossible for carbon capture to ever reach a sufficient level. It is an excellent tool, but it *must* be coupled with other solutions as well. We need a multi-pronged approach. Reduce emissions and waste, capture what we can, use alternatives where we can, etc etc. If we do all this stuff together, carbon capture becomes an incredible tool to help support the other solutions. But it can't replace the others.

Nazo (nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social)'s status on Friday, 12-Jul-2024 17:44:58 JST Nazo @arstechnica I seriously can't see how people can't see that calls for privatizing things with no limits won't result in, well, no limits. In such a system it's not lowest bid wins, it's everyone finds the absolute highest bid they can get away with and then just focus on marketing to convince people their way overpriced service is better than the other way overpriced service. Marketing works a lot better than pricing for competition it seems because that's just how humans are.

Nazo (nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social)'s status on Tuesday, 09-Jul-2024 06:35:12 JST Nazo @arstechnica Seems silly to do it internally at all now that modern operating systems have means of connecting external spellcheckers to virtually anything. Linux has done that forever. Windows basically does it on most modern things almost the same way.
That said, at this point everyone in Windows should just use Notepad++ instead anyway. Simple, light, efficient, yet can do basic simple things that Notepad won't do (also FOSS!)

Nazo (nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social)'s status on Saturday, 06-Jul-2024 10:58:36 JST Nazo @arstechnica That was amazingly fast... The Supreme Court only JUST declared that federal agencies have no power to do their jobs and already others have jumped on board it seems.

Nazo (nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social)'s status on Saturday, 06-Jul-2024 10:46:30 JST Nazo @arstechnica The article wasn't clear (or I missed it.) Does "bricking" just mean they're discontinuing? Normally in electronics it means doing something to render it completely unusable (such as erasing firmware.) It's bad enough we live in such a throwaway society, but if it's reaching the point companies actually destroy their discontinued products rather than just let people keep using them we're at full blown dystopia levels now...

Nazo (nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social)'s status on Saturday, 06-Jul-2024 10:36:10 JST Nazo @eff The problem lies in getting people to actually *USE* them. I've tried over and over to convince a lot of people who really shouldn't remain on the platforms their own to switch over and just get collective shrugs from most. Some I legitimately worry about. For example, vtubers on Twitter as nazis gain more and more power there. I guess they don't think they're direct targets, but I guarantee that they will be. (Especially LGBTQ+ people and open allies.)
How do we get people to switch?

Nazo (nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social)'s status on Friday, 05-Jul-2024 14:10:49 JST Nazo @itsfoss I've been a bit leery about this "Fossify" group. Something about their apps feels off to me. But that's probably just my tinfoil hat speaking to me.
Amaze seems have been doing the job pretty well for me, so for now I stick with it. I truly miss ES File Explorer back before they sold out though. Guess that's a good reminder of why true FOSS is always better than just free since they can sell out and become horrible without warning.

Sorry, getting a bit jaded here.

Nazo (nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social)'s status on Thursday, 04-Jul-2024 15:49:26 JST Nazo @nixCraft I remember getting fussed at when I said that data collection companies would ignore instructions to not scrape when an official entry came out. Now it seems to have gotten so bad people need an actual blocking service.

Nazo (nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social)'s status on Thursday, 04-Jul-2024 15:47:11 JST Nazo @itsfoss These are pretty dated and several are not realistic or impossible to run locally besides. (It's a fast moving field.) Most home users want an 8B, 11B or 13B depending with a few higher depending on hardware and context. MoEs are taking over as focused models for many of these tasks though. 4x7, 4x8 and even 8x7/8 for higher end hardware. I mostly use it for story/RP stuff, but I do hear Beyonder 4x8B was good for coding though.

Nazo (nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social)'s status on Tuesday, 02-Jul-2024 09:23:20 JST Nazo @nixCraft I wonder if some time back (I guess more like 20 years back) there were legitimate posts of this meant in all seriousness.

Nazo (nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social)'s status on Tuesday, 02-Jul-2024 08:52:02 JST Nazo @arstechnica "Likely"? Don't they know? It's literally their job to know.
Maybe there should be a minimum requirement that they actually understand law before being allowed to become a Supreme Court justice. We'll have to replace about half of them, but we'll be better off for it.

Nazo (nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social)'s status on Tuesday, 02-Jul-2024 08:45:24 JST Nazo @arstechnica What kind of "AI" are we talking about here? If it's a complicated set of algorithms written by hand I'd trust it a bit more, but if we're talking LLMs, a so called "halucination" could easily end up with the user snapped in half.

Nazo (nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social)'s status on Tuesday, 02-Jul-2024 08:42:41 JST Nazo @nixCraft Ok, but screw Python.

Nazo (nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social)'s status on Tuesday, 02-Jul-2024 07:35:52 JST Nazo @itsfoss Given the way it runs together, are you sure that isn't plain text just sized wrong in those specific cases? If it were a SVG I would presume it would all be one overall image rather than separate images for each line, right?

Nazo (nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social)'s status on Monday, 01-Jul-2024 07:04:31 JST Nazo @nixCraft One reason I like some of the better shells like zsh or fish is the way they handle history so much more intelligently. Now I can just type a few letters and there it is. I still use up and down a lot, but at least it's less than 1000 times.

Nazo (nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social)'s status on Monday, 01-Jul-2024 05:27:40 JST Nazo @nixCraft This is how I'm beginning to feel for *all* of Python.
How is it 2024 and we all rely so heavily on something where package A requires package C to be version >5 and package B requires package C to be version < 3 while package D requires package A and B to be installed together (and specific versions of course!)

Nazo (nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social)'s status on Sunday, 30-Jun-2024 14:38:52 JST Nazo @itsfoss Just FYI, a lot of your pages that show command line samples with animated text or blinking or whatever often looks like the below image for me. I think it's a misconfigured font setting where it just doesn't agree with all browser settings. It probably just needs to specify size I think (it looks like it's coming out really really big)? Not 100% sure though.

Nazo (nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social)'s status on Sunday, 30-Jun-2024 09:42:39 JST Nazo @itsfoss Dunno, there are ups and downs with every distro. I have to say that it's Arch-based distros that have delivered me into unbootable states the most frequently, but on the other hand, it's Arch-based distros that are giving me all the latest with properly accelerated Wayland, ROCm that actually installs without Python dependency errors, etc.
As a side note, I bet we can all agree Python should be burned down and never spoken of again.
