Yes they were, so I’m offering you an actual theory as to why this may actually be true, yet difficult to “prove”.

Smoking was bad for your health long before anyone sat down and took the time to prove it. Autoregressive LLM tokenizer are a very new field of computer science and it’s going to take a while for the community to collectively understand everything we’re currently doing by trial and error.

Anecdotally, I use it a lot and I feel like my responses are better when I’m polite. I have a couple of theories as to why.

1. More tokens in the context window of your question, and a clear separator between ideas in a conversation make it easier for the inference tokenizer to recognize disparate ideas.

2. Higher quality datasets contain american boomer/millennial notions of “politeness” and when responses are structured in kind, they’re more likely to contain tokens from those higher quality datasets.

I haven’t mathematically proven any of this within the llama.cpp tokenizer, but I strongly suspect that I could at least prove a correlation between polite token input and dataset representation output tokens

For people with “that one game” there is a middle ground. Mine is Destiny 2 and they use a version of easy anticheat that refuses to run on Linux. My solution was to buy a $150 used Dell on eBay, a $180 GPU to be able to output to my 4 high-res displays, and install Debian + moonlight on it. I moved my gaming PC downstairs and a combination of wake-on-lan + sunshine means that I can game at functionally native performance, streaming from the basement. In my setup, windows only exists to play games on.

The added bonus here is now I can also stream games to my phone, or other ~thin clients~ in the house, saving me upgrade costs if I want to play something in the living room or upstairs. All you need is the bare minimum for native-framerate, native-res decoding, which you can find in just about anything made in the last 5-10 years.

It’s probably “blocked” by restricting DNS queries to the main site (e.g pornhub.com) but not to any of their CDNs because _effort

I support your position in principle, but canceled my own nitro when they did the android app redesign. It went from really snappy (respecting system animation scale settings) to completely ignoring them. It feels like molasses compared to every other phone app that operates at the system set 0.25 animation scale.

They also completely broke foldable support, and if your device changes aspect ratios inside a chat, you have to restart your client to get it to behave correctly again.

The enshittification is real and I am voting with my wallet.

Xmpp is by design, an extensible protocol. There just doesn’t seem to be any motivation to develop for it.

I’d think it’s probably not a majority, but I do wonder what percentage it actually is. I do have distinct memories of being like 12 and trying to find porn of people my own age instead of “gross old people” and being confused why I couldn’t find anything. Kids are stupid lol, that’s why laws protecting them need to exist.

Also good god when I become a parent I am going to do proper network monitoring; in hindsight I should not have been left unattended on the internet at 12.

Scam reviews or bot account creation would be my guess

That is… not how bgp works my guy

I just verified personally that it was present on unifi devices, since their docs weren’t clear. We are a mostly cisco/aruba shop where I work, but a lot of my colleagues at smaller businesses/universities use radius with unifi access points. I imagine they are vulnerable to this.

You are correct though in assessing that homelab users and very small enterprise users are probably safe.

it’s running wpa_supplicant, not iwd. It’s vulnerable to the similar exploit in CVE-2023-52160 but the patch will likely have to come from unifi, as wpa_supplicant hasn’t been updated in years as far as I know.

Seems unifi devices are affected, no patch yet as far as I can tell.

No, but we are still in the era of mom has to physically annihilate her body in order to produce a child, and also in the era of mom requires actual physical recovery time before performing strenuous physical activity. I get the equity in offering dads extra leave to help take care of mom but it’s disingenuous to suggest that they both have the same requirements.

I don’t think it is unreasonable to tell a man or a woman that if you take 3-6 months off that someone else might take your role.

If everyone gets the same time then yeah that’s total horseshit

Would it still be illegal if it’s based on time? Like I’ll make this up but suppose their policy was men get 2 weeks paternity leave, but women get 2 months maternity. It might actually make sense then.

factory reset went back to the shitty upgrade version I upgraded to :(. But I will say that I haven’t let it update since that initial terrible upgrade assuming it might get worse. Maybe I should try upgrading it once more and then lock it off if the next version is decent?

I connected it because it was in that like 2 year span where they had that a small android tablet as a remote. Legitimately cool feature but I should have known better than to let it update.

Vizio is fantastic if you’re using your own source, I wouldn’t rely on their smart stuff though.

I’d still refute that claim. I bought a vizio tv about ~7 years ago and it was perfect when I first bought it. A few software updates later and now the TV will switch to it’s internal bullshit any time there isn’t an input source for greater than ~3 seconds. It’s infuriating that if my nvidia shield takes a second too long to push out a video signal the TV will just switch inputs on me. There is no way to disable this antifeature. The best part is after I noticed this behavior, I (at the network level) prevented all outgoing communication from this TV and it is still perfectly happy to just switch to a blank internal input whenever an external source takes slightly too long.

“If I can’t track you, fuck you I’ll make your TV basically unusable”

I’m glad I wasn’t the only one wondering that.
