The models you can run on consumer hardware are still nowhere near the stuff that runs in corporate data centers. To stick with your metaphor, its like running a little steam engine at home while the big guys get to operate nuclear reactors…

I’ve looked into self-hosted AI and decided it’s not worth the cost - both in terms of hardware and energy - when compared to the relative value to be gotten out of it. YMMV.

Are you sure he isn’t just Grok inside a humanoid shell?

You better have a nice, big “fell for it again”-award ready for him. He’ll need it for emotional support.

The rules of rational discourse are centuries old. But if you need them spelled out once more, here they are: If you claim shit, you back it up with evidence. If you can’t or find weird excuses why you shouldn’t have to, people will legitimately call you out on making shit up.

Case in point: I think you made a case for torturing fluffy little ducklings with red-hot pokers in the past. You’re a bad person for doing so. I can’t find a source right now that proves you did it, but I’m sure it’s somewhere in your post history. So unless you prove you didn’t say that (which is impossible, btw), I expect you and everyone else here to accept my claim as true.

Not how this works, mate, but you do you.

i won’t be able to find it

That’s a very lazy follow-up to quite a broad claim. Please do provide evidence.

I’ve been following their content pretty closely, and I do not recall anything of that sort. They did recommend iPhone over stock Android, which is accurate.

So until you can produce a source to that claim, I call horseshit.

The only fun I manage to get out of that fact is the idea that the overdue blood clot delivery could be and day now.

Just because 11 is worse doesn’t mean 10 was good. 10 was a shit-show from the get-go. It came with aggressive dark patterns trying to trick people into installing it over their Win 7 and 8 machines, came with mandatory telemetry, ads in the start menu and a built-in keylogger.

So it’s not “fuck 11”. It’s “fuck Windows”.

And then: extend and extinguish! /s

I fear you’re right. It’d be foolish to think America has a monopoly on short-sighted, selfish dimwits. Rassemblement National and AfD polls bear sad testimony to this.

Even Braxman isn’t too bad if you can separate the information from his product advertisements and his… personality.

So, you’re telling us we should paint them gold and stick his orange fuckface on them to get them approved?

Yo, dawg, I heard you like Linux, so we removed all the windows from your car.

Oh! So, basically, digital Leprechaun gold that you must pay for before it disappears and eats a lot of energy on its way out? Shut up and take my money!

“Did we say ‘payable in USD’? Sorry, that was a typo. We meant ‘leprechaun gold’.”
