Word roots say they have a point though. Artifice, Artificial etc. I think the main problem with the way both of the people above you are using this terminology is that they’re focusing on the wrong word and how that word is being conflated with something it’s not.

LLM’s are artificial. They are a man made thing that is intended to fool man into believing they are something they aren’t. What we’re meant to be convinced they are is sapiently intelligent.

Mimicry is not sapience and that’s where the argument for LLM’s being real honest to God AI falls apart.

Sapience is missing from Generative LLM’s. They don’t actually think. They don’t actually have motivation. What we’re doing when we anthropomorphize them is we are fooling ourselves into thinking they are a man-made reproduction of us without the meat flavored skin suit. That’s not what’s happening. But some of us are convinced that it is, or that it’s near enough that it doesn’t matter.

The database is the backbone of them being able to hurt or harm so I’d say it’s pretty important. Here’s the other problem though. The federal government under Trump is having a really difficult time protecting the personal identifiable information of the citizens. Not only have they allowed private companies to access that data (palantir etc), but they are also having a lot of difficulties with cyber attacks. Part of the reason those cyber attacks haven’t been as effective as they could be is because the data isn’t localized in one place. Now that’s exactly what they’re trying to do with this.

I mean. Apex Launcher does all this stuff (except I don’t know what organize app icons in bulk means in this context). If it means apply an icon pack? Then it does that.

I probably have pretty close to the top of the curve with 1140mbps up/down according to my plan. In actuality though my speed test reads at 864 up and 859 down.

Thank you. That’s what I wanted to know.

Would implementing something like this prevent this problem?

I need more information. How is the malware being distributed to these devices? How can we check if our credentials are in this dump? Shouldn’t the respective platforms be doing due diligence to notify those effected and asking them to change their passwords?

I feel it may be fairly likely that this inforstealer Malware is the type distributed by dubious apps the play store and similar have had to take down but aren’t actively notifying users who installed them. Is it predominantly phones that are effected or is this malware PC based? Changing your passwords is important but sounding the alarm with no actual information is just… Ill advised. It’s fear mongering.

Could compete how? He gonna buy infrastructure? He gonna be an MVNO? (None of whom are really competitive with the big players because a lot of them are either regional, have to buy batches of data and minutes from the big three, or have pretty bad service). And who’s going to buy it? His supporters? I doubt that. This is just another grift.

I’m trying out nebula because I saw your suggestion and honestly a year for $60 isn’t terrible at all. But I’m having trouble finding creators (not because the app isn’t good but because it seems a lot of the channels I follow on YouTube aren’t on Nebula. I have two devices open actively going down the list of channels I follow on YouTube trying to find channels I want to follow on Nebula and so far I am striking out pretty bad. I hope I can get half the creators I follow on Nebula because so far it’s pretty decent from what I have seen. App is easy to navigate and pretty polished etc.

Is there a way to view who’s on the service (creator wise) before paying for it? Because if not that’s the major flaw with it.

This is why English does the thing. Thank you! Its something I noticed and know but couldn’t put into words.

Yeah. I don’t know why the downvotes. But I was waiting to see how they Z2 go chips would compare so I watched a bunch of reviews and every review mentions the difference in RAM among other things including color way.

So social media are news outlets now. Good. Glad we cleared that up.

I did something of the opposite. I had a Verizon number. I moved it to Google voice. I had a second Google voice number that then became a google fi number. So now I have a Verizon coded google voice number (that my bank accepts etc), and a google fi number that was originally a google voice number. I’m curious how this honestly effects me. My work numbers have never been associated with my personal accounts so there’s that.

Supposedly it’s got a newer chip (Z2).

The windows variant of the legion go s has twice the RAM so it’s not that weird.

If you already had smart replies or similar enabled (they were available before Gemini hit the scene) then you have to go opt out.

Not enough staff to work on game, game take longer, EA angry at how long game take, EA disband studio and cancel game?

The Xbox system is a windows based system optimised to run on the consoles hardware. It has been since launch. Modifying it for handhelds with the ability to navigate to a desktop environment. The addition of a desktop environment isn’t so difficult that it should take three years to accomplish. They launched windows 11 4 years ago and it didn’t take but a few months for them to start shoehorning AI into every crevice of it.

Asus has a product already in production that could be used for the purposes of test bench testing and development. The original ROG Ally is even around the same price point as a steam deck.

So all in all the only two excuses MS has are that they are bad at understanding trends and getting in on the ground floor, and they are bad at optimising windows specifically because that goes against their business plan to gather user data and weaponize that data against their competitors.

All.in all we don’t have an Xbox handheld at this point because they’re greedy and fail to act on trend analysis.

While I agree that the actual code base needs to be develop and augmented on the backend to make this work, that’s not really what I’m saying. I’m pointing out that they already have the visual design and working template for a handheld based OS ( navigation and so on). Just that coupled with something like what they had with Windows 10 (the tablet interface for 10 was better than 11) would be fine. It could literally be an Xbox version of steam’ big picture mode (because you can launch directly into it from Windows on 10). There even already exists a slimmed down version of Windows 11 to save on resource hogging.

The steam deck has been out long enough for them to have implemented this kind of thing. They’ve had time to design it. They’ve just been using that time to deliberately figure out how to shoehorn AI and telemetry and the rest into it because at the end of the day they still want to siphon up all that data.

They already have the Xbox framework. I don’t understand why it’s so difficult to just use that for gaming and give the handheld the ability to launch a lightweight version of Windows similar to the easy way Steam OS will let you exit to Linux desktop.
