When we set the upper limit of PC-DOS at 640K, we thought nobody would ever need that much memory. — William Gates, chairman of Microsoft
That might be true if we didn’t start using the internet to send video and audio

Man I might be a wierdo here, but I don’t want to give him free data. His company has stolen enough as it is.
Who says it has to be real data?
I like your thinking.
That was my first though too. The whole point is to stop sending them our data. But like someone else said, it doesn’t need to be real. Maybe we start reporting there’s a shit ton ram on Jupitor ripe for assimilation.
Here’s the unused ram that I keep laying around in a box. Can someone tweet it at Sam for me?

Get a load of Mr. Moneybags over here. They have memory AND a video card just laying around.
A SSD as well (top right).
128gb, that’ll fit like 3-4 models, sweet!
Man, these days that’s a dangerous pic. Gonna have roving ram gangs knocking down your door
Is that a GeForce GT?
You mean X it?
eXcrete it all over him
We could also save a lot of energy if we stopped using our brains, and instead have AI think for us.
Did anyone ever think of that?In fact, the AI data centers can better use that energy. If only there were some way we could capture the energy our body inefficiently generates and use it to help the data centers, almost like a battery.
We could even feed back some of the energy we give to the data centers to put our minds at ease, perhaps by simulating a matrix of stimulus approximating, you know, the height of human civilization…
Somebody should make a movie about that. 😋
Granted, but only if the exit mechanism requires you to take estradiol.
Best I can give you is a payphone
Well… Only if you “combined it with a form of fusion”.
Way ahead of you
😋 👍
Better yet, rent our unused brain space and let corporations use that wasted brain energy for their server farms … great income for the average person who seldom uses their brains. Then we could use that income to buy credits to have AI think for us … circle of life.
What a ridiculous idea. The unused brain space is for ads! It’s like cryptomining but for Google and Facebook.
or for rendering AI porn … so much AI porn
rent our unused brain space and let corporations use that wasted brain energy
But the corporations have the unused brain space. It correlates inverse to their income and executive power. They tend to waste it on doomscrolling Xitter and socializing while golfing.
Based on the spelling on the Github page, I’m not running this. There’s an absolute lack of attention to detail advertised by the abysmal writing in the Readme. Say what you will, but red flags are red flags; and after a few decades we learn that sloppy writing is sloppy writing.
It’s a 287 line shell script; it’s pretty easy to read. It’s also very obviously LLM generated
287 lines to run
free | mailx?? Jesus what has the world come toThe world is so hot right now
Because of the data centers cooking the planet… right?
Yup, with AI you can make things hot
This will be the most satisfying bubble burst i’ve ever witnessed.
I don’t think so. The people responsible will have their golden parachutes, while the rest of us will have to deal with the full blown recession.
More like depression
And also a struggling economy.
Old MacDonald had a RAM, E-I-E-I-O!
Fucking RAM Burglar.

Oh shit. This is gold, Jerry. GOLD!
I’m quite proud of this one.
Well, sniffer. He sniffs for free RAM now. 🤭
I have a computer with 352 GB just sitting there doing nothing. I finally have a use for it!
Email him that you’re using it for local inference too, even if you aren’t.
How the F did this guy convince all the world’s richest people to invest in his chatbot?
“Hey guys, if we trade money back and forth for a couple years people will think we’ll be worth more and we can leverage our stock options to make shitloads of money we can use to take even greater control of the economy”
Rich people, by and large, incredibly stupid and narcissistic. They do not have the intelligence to understand how awful Ai is and they are easily duped by the promise that it will a) do their jobs for them and b) suck them off over how “smart” they are for asking basic questions the whole time.
by telling them it was gonna replace knowledge workers. people believe what they want to hear.
No-one consumes the anti-hopium like the C-suite. They already think they’re above the plebes, and that dehumanization went through “them before us” and now is at “their pain for our benefit”. They’re only one step away from “This was Steve in R&D? He’s delicious with the mesquite.”

Because the chatbot felt human enough to trick many people into a hype.
I’ve just sent an email toward him to report that 2.32Gb of RAM was unused in my computer today.
I will report every.single.day.
FYI, the email is “ceo.admin@openai.com”
Feed him more data - brilliant.
I’m gonna edit the script to say I have 192 GB
And this, right here, is the last post by sorghum@sh.itjust.works before the Open AI repo men came for them.
“Call me daddy when I take it.”
Is that a star commonly used in communism? Your ram is my ram now
If it accurately reports it, I won’t need to edit the script.
That’s my point, I don’t want it to be accurate. I just want it to rage bait 'ol Scammy.
Yeah, I got that. But I’m bragging that I actually have 192 GB.
128 gang here, problem is the script send what is unused and well I use 90% of it. Its my ram and I want to use it all.
Okay, little jelly, but what the hell are you even doing with 64 GB of RAM? Are you running a mini-version of AWS?
multiple VMs mostly
I need huge amounts of RAM for video editing. When the bubble pops I’m hoping to upgrade to 128GB.
That’s only… roughly… not even 1 TB.

There is no “unused” RAM in a Linux machine. RAM that is not allocated makes a wonderful disk cache, basically since the kernel knew block devices.
Especially if you use ZFS.
