Why would someone pay to train a LLM on Tumblr???

At least Google paying for reddit content, would have something useful mixed with all the memes.

But Tumblr would definitely poison the results

I noticed now that tether (a crypto coin that claims to be 100% backed by USD) printed 10% of what the fed printed in 2023.

And a similar amount for usdc

Surely all those freshly printed crypto coins are backed by real dollars

If you refer to pizza boy, the dev told me by email that there’s an option to save somewhere else (I sent an email complaining that hiding saves in /android/data/com.app.blabla is stupid (can only be accessed via USB and it gets wiped when you uninstall the app), at least use /android/media/com.app.blabla

Isn’t the opposite?

Saving in downloads on Android doesn’t need additional storage permissions, so apps will save in the big “trash can” downloads folder

Instead, who the fuck knows where iOS saved that file, where every app is sandboxed and isolated

I fried the battery charging chip for my HTC dream when I rooted and used it as a router for the family in holiday. I felt it was hot to the touch but I thought “it’s gonna be ok, surely it has temperature sensors and it will throttle”. High draw for a long time when charging = the chip exploded and it wouldn’t charge anymore. Luckily the battery was removable and I already got an external charger for it from dealextreme. But HTC still repaired it for free under warranty even if it was my fault and I gave to them back rooted.

Same for LG when my rooted Nexus 5X boot looped, although that was an endemic problem caused by LG shitty manufacturing (they changed the stance a few months after that, never bought LG anymore)

Samsung should repair it, I thought they were the only ones root friendly left on the market…

I honestly couldn’t see how they could offer so much for free

We just saw that it wasn’t profitable and the business plan was to find an exit strategy via acquisition

They’re talented in nostalgic acquisitions.

They got WinZip, ulead video studio, intervideo winDVD, Roxio toast, Pinnacle video editor, Bryce, Ventura Publisher.

Yes but the reason I purchased from play store (which has the side effect of donating an undeserved 30% to google) was that I could easily share the access with the family without too much effort, just send a link to them 😢

From mobile it’s an incredible hassle to choose “English” hidden in a list with 5000 obscure languages. There should be an option to reduce the list to the 2-3 languages I can speak

I’m really curious about the amount of money exchanged. It must have been an enormous amount in order to do a “I’d even sell my mom for that” and don’t feel dirty

The problem is people got the idea that they need a 3 ton truck to do grocery shopping

Lol I’m so out of touch that only now I noticed it’s DC

LOL that’s why there was batman at the beginning

I was genuinely thinking it was Marvel ignoring all the references to the justice league. Like, my mind shutted off at the beginning of the movie, just watching the action but ignoring the story

LOL i can’t believe I did such a mistake

There are too many. The other day I saw the latest flash movie. It’s the second? Third? Fourth? I don’t know because they don’t put a number and I don’t care enough. Too many stuff referenced other movies or series making watching a bit of a hassle. Is this just unknown and will be told later for making the movie interesting, or it’s because the audience is supposed to having watched 40 hours of previous works?

If they really need to push a new superhero movie or series every 2 months, their stories should be self contained, at most separated in a trilogy. Not an infinite parallel universe constantly self referenced that needs a guide that tells you which content you need to watch and in which order.

Of course not. They install Facebook that has one ad every two posts, ads in WhatsApp is nothing

They don’t seem good at all, long and weird

I don’t know what text the LLM sniffed, but those aren’t average at all

English word + four numbers

The Mac BIOS can update during a standard OS update without indicating that you’ll brick the machine if it powers off for any reason

I hate Apple, but my Lenovo does exactly the same. It fucking installs BIOS updates automatically without any warning. Once, after a reboot it was hanging too much on a black screen and I thought it just froze, so I forced a shutdown by long pressing the power button. Luckily the BIOS restored via the fallback, but that wiped the TPM for some reason and because windows 11 on laptops automatically encrypts the drive with bitlocker I might have lost everything (luck again, I’m part of the 1% of the bitlocker users that actually keep an offline backup of the encryption key)

At least (I’m guessing, never bought any M1 Mac and will never do it) apple should be smart enough to disable the power button during BIOS updates, and maybe postpone the update on a low battery, leaving the danger only to desktop users

I guess some way to change your mind is giving you a share of the money the gambling industry is paying for having this happen

Before it was outlawed, in my country some gambling website even paid to rename the league to “bet and win league”

Post more from humans, no ai content

Same in Italy, the tax office will assume that the landlord would get a part of the rent in undeclared cash
