When I come home I don't even talk to anyone...

I just walk through the global entry gate without interacting with anyone...

You couldn't have upgraded from 24.04 to 26.04?

This update came out over a month ago...

https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ubuntu-26-04-1-lts-released/8...

My 14 TB HGST drives were $135 3 years ago on that site, and now they are $360... I don't see how this is any good sign.

I bought my 14TB drives 3 years ago for $135 each and now they are like $300...

Do you need to? Do you always keep up with all the version bumps on the software you use?

Guys, are we slowing down yet?

I doubt it's anywhere near that fast in winter when its freezing out.

You really think people should get an EV when they don't have anywhere but public chargers to charge?

I'll be impressed when it solves the P versus NP problem.

And how will consumers watch back 8K video?

If OpenAI is going to call Astra AGI, then I would expect it to be able to update it's weights to new knowledge, because a generally intelligent being can indeed do this.

I can teach myself to play an instrument, and I'm not just building this huge lookup table that I have to access every time I play the instrument. I am updating the weights in my neurons.

Until AI can do this it's not AGI in my book.

This is one of the things that bothers me about AI.

To me, intelligence or an intelligent entity should be able to learn from its mistakes and learn new things on its own. Having to start from scratch to teach an AI new facts or new skills is not very intelligent IMO.

Because that's what humans do and they are trained to mimic what humans do?

Do you wear your watch in the shower?

Perhaps you don't take daily showers, but I just put my watch on the charger when I shower and that's all I ever need to charge it 99% of the time.

But they said the memory bandwidth was double the previous generation.

What is the model or part number for an Anker silicone cable that is faster than USB 2.0?

No, I have 0 interest in AI stories or music or art. I like all of these things because it's a view into the mind of the artist and I want to connect with another human and appreciate what they made and why.

I feel like the reason I dislike reading or find reading boring is because I can't. But it's just a theory. Meanwhile I absolutely love movies.

Well doesn't it make sense to replace the more expensive worker first?

Well, people often play games not because they are the best game, but because their friends are playing it and they want to join in the experience. This seems to have more to do with marketing than game or code quality, and marketing is not exactly cheap.

How has it been fixed? It's still just Apple parsing the messages that came through like so and so reacted with some emoji to some message, and then attaching it to that message. But then this doesn't work with reacting to attachments like photos as it doesn't know which photo was reacted to.

Closed loop is of course feasible, and closed loop with an evaporation step is also feasible, but open loop evaporative is the most efficient in terms of total energy usage (cost) and most cost effective in general, so that's what we mostly get right now.

I didn't say evaporative HAS to be open loop, but many are, which answers the question why they use up a bunch of water.

Yeah I don't get this, there are plentiful public toilets all over the US.

They evaporate the water which is what makes it cool so effeciently.

They aren't moving on from foldable, they are moving on from the shape to a shorter and fatter shaped foldable.

How is this any different from any job? Or at least any knowledge worker job like an engineer or some sort? They hired you, so presumably they want you to do the work or solve the problem, not farm it out to another person or an LLM.

Well I buy the latest pro phone, and you are right I don't pay store price. AT&T gave me the 17 Pro for free when I traded in my 3 year old 14 Pro.

And my monthly cost of the cell plan with them is only $30 plus taxes and fees which works out to about 36/mo, so it seems like a great deal in the end.

Basically I pay 36/mo, and every 3 years I trade in my phone for the latest pro model and it only costs me sales tax and some $30 "activation fee".

The 10 and 11 definitely charge faster than the 9, but also you need a decent power supply too, like 25W at least to reach the max speed.
