There's millenials in the white house now. Elite millenials. Its horrifying.

“The idea behind silicon sampling is simple and tantalizing,” they write. “Because large language models can generate responses that emulate human answers, polling companies see an opportunity to use AI agents to simulate survey responses at a small fraction of the cost and time required for traditional polling.”

Somebody invested money into this company. And there's at least hundreds, maybe thousands, of other businesses with these asinine ideas about how to use AI. They're all getting capital from someone who's supposed to be smart because they have capital. Remember that when llm providers cost correct token prices.

People have been saying this for like a decade and it keeps getting worse.

CPU barely detected (programming.dev)
submitted 5 months ago by sudo@programming.dev to c/buildapc@lemmy.world

I recently swapped motherboards between two builds. One went well but the other is being very finicky with detecting the CPU. Right now its laying on its side like a beached whale with the left side panel open. The heatsink is simply sitting on the CPU, no mounts, no fans. Sometimes I can strap the heatsink down, stand up the box, and close the case, but never with the fans on. Its like that's too much weight and some connection is broken. Is anyone familiar with this problem?

I had this issue previously with a different motherboard and fixed it by using a stock heatsink. But this is a fairly simple CoolerMaster 212. Its not massive. I feel like its a problem with the board or the socket.

More details: when uninstalled the old motherboard in this build, it had the same CM212 heatsink in it. When I removed that heatsink the CPU (Ryzen 5700) came out with it to my horror. Neither that CPU or that motherboard are in this build though. But that CPU was supposed it be. It did have bent pins and I did try to install it before discovering the bent pins. After straightening them the CPU still didn't work so i switched to an old Ryzen 1600, which is currently being finicky. Maybe I damaged the motherboard socket?

This is why Mamdani is so important. Average progressives are going to finally see what socialists have been saying for decades. If you want to move left on anything economical. If you just want to raise the minimum wage $1. The democratic establishment will treat you as the enemy. They will come at you harder than they do the GOP because they can and because you are a threat to them personally.

If you want a sample of how crazy Chinese history can get look at the Tai Ping rebellion:

  • Student fails Civil Servant Exam for the third time and has a mental breakdown
  • starts claiming he's Jesus' little brother who trained him to fight demons in his dreams
  • more dead than WWI

In Germany, we have the Clearingstelle Urheberrecht im Internet (CUII) - literally 'Copyright Clearinghouse for the Internet', a private organization that decides what websites to block, corporate interests rewriting our free internet. No judges, no transparency, just a bunch of ISPs and major copyright holders deciding what your eyes can see.

This is worse than whatever the UK is doing IMO.

Utterly delusional to think any of that would work. At every step you would just get your face beaten in. When the cops come they too will just beat your face in.

Thinking you can castle doctrine a squad of ICE agents is equally delusional. You could probably take a couple out but you'd still die in the end and be risking the lives of anyone that lives with you.

The only solution is well known and already in practice in places like LA: have an active community response force that will show up and intimidate and harass the ICE agents. All of the previous delusions assume you, alone, can stop an ICE with just your privledge.

Because then the US any every other IAEA signatory would be obligated to sanction Israel which would be the end of Israel's economy.

No news media dares mention it because they have no proof and would both loose any insider access and get buried in libel cases.

Jayapal said one plan is to propose a raft of executive orders President Biden could issue to "protect existing structures," such as shielding career civil servants and Justice Department officials.

Yes! Good!

Some Democrats are also sensitive to the perception that they are adopting the tactics of Republican state legislators who used their supermajorities to kneecap incoming Democratic governors.

Fucking gauge my eyeballs out. You can't call them fascists and then object to playing dirty against them.

"We're trying to show how the United States is supposed to conduct itself every four years when a new person takes over the reins of government," said Cleaver.

McConnell denied Obama a Supreme court appointment! The precedent is already set! Your norms are already broken!

If democrats want to win they must purge their own ranks of members like Cleaver and rebuild with more Jayapals or else they will keep ceding grounds to fascists.

I start my coding workspaces in tmux sessions which persist when I log out. If I switch from a wayland session to an x11 session, then my copy and paste functionality in those neovim sessions are broken because it's still trying to use wl-copy. To be more precise:

  1. Start a wayland session.
  2. Open a terminal and start a tmux session.
  3. Open neovim and do some work.
  4. Log out of wayland, log into an X11 environment
  5. Open a terminal and reconnect to the tmux session
  6. "+y broken. clipboard: error invoking wl-copy: Failed to connect to a Wayland server...

Restarting neovim isn't sufficient. I have to restart the entire tmux session or switch back to wayland. Is there some short cut I can take here?

The analysis revealed that the Debian Linux configuration was not included in their test matrix.

You might as well say you don't support Linux.

"Crowdstrike's model seems to be 'we push software to your machines any time we want, whether or not it's urgent, without testing it'," lamented the team member.

I wonder how this shit works on NixOS.

Everything I read says it's a feature enabled in what ever compositor you choose, if your compositor supports it. Why isn't there a general purpose keybinding program like setxkbmap? Does it just not exist yet or must it be built into the compositor?

I've read [this stackexchange thread] on something related but it all seems to be using XKB which should imply I'm using XWayland?
