I currently use mullvad leta, which uses either the google or brave index. It was only for their VPN users before, but they opened it up to everyone. It’s a nice, simple interface - a “no bullshit”-experience.
Ah yes, the famously communist Russian Federation. The RF is nakedly an imperial fascist regime that doesn’t even have communist window dressing, it boggles the mind that self-proclaimed communists and anti-imperialists support them.

Don’t you think after 5 months without oversight who exactly has access to that server that the difference between this and a random s3 bucket is nearly nil? But you are right, in the light of integrity the title should reflect the facts as they present themselves currently.


The votes on the posting itself should reflect if the content is worth your time. I’m not even American and I have a really bad feeling after reading the article, but it’s better to know than being in the dark, and the article itself is full of details which make it pretty reasonable to believe it’s the truth.
Mr Borges really brought the receipts on this one, and he is one of the heros of the american people that will probably pay dearly for his courage, and he still did what’s right.


It would be wise to do the same with stuff like working hours too, to stop the “attendance epidemic” that is so harmful to people that they have a word for “death by overworking”. But regarding this one, as long as it stays on a level of a PSA that’s fine by me.


I wouldn’t laugh. Those people fulfill a basic human need in a way they feel safe with - probably because this safety is missing from their life. It’s not healthy to be so attached to LLMs, but to become so attached they must feel pretty isolated. And LLM’s are a lot more interactive and responsive than Severus Snape, and he had lots of women “channeling” him.


I can fully understand? The average human, from my perspective and lived experience, is garbage to his contemporaries; and one is never safe from being hurt, neither from family or friends. Some people have been hurt more than others - i can fully understand the need for exchange with someone/something that genuinely doesn’t want to hurt you and that is (at least seemingly) more sapient than a pet.


we’re too old it seems


Google has co-operated with the ACCC, admitted liability and agreed to jointly submit to the Court that Google should pay a total penalty of $55 million
$55 million penalty for Google is a joke.


yeah that might work, but what will happen to all the data they store currently?


I just tried fullscreen youtube and it worked flawlessly, and i had a lot more luck than you with different apps. we can at least agree that it isn’t consistently stable depending on configuration, and i feel pretty lucky that my nobara installation is one of the happy ones.


That’s also my experience, and with experimental wayland and ntsync support in wine 10 it feels even smoother (but i don’t have numbers to back it up - maybe i’ll benchmark wine 9 & 10 parallel, if i do i append the info here)


Why is the 4070 an issue regarding linux? Nvidia drivers have come a long way since the beginning of the year, currently running modded cyberpunk on my 3070 Ti without issues.


Adding the cost for training, which is a one time cost, to ChatGPT raises the power consumption from 3W to 4W. That’s the high-end calculation btw.


Regarding energy use see my other reply. It’s like if you scold people for running their microwave 10s too long. Watching 2 hours of Netflix is a lot worse. go read up here


The energy costs are overblown. An response costs about 3Wh, which is about 1 minute of runtime for a 200W Pc, or 10 Seconds of a 1000W microwave. See the calculations made here and below for the energy costs. if you want to save energy, go vegan and ditch your car; completely disbanding ChatGPT amounts for 0,0017% of the CO2 Reduction during Covid 2020 (this guy gave the numbers, but had an error in magnitude, which i fixed in my reply, calculator output is attached. It would help climate activists if they concentrated on something that is worthwhile to criticize.
If i read a book, and use phrases out of that book in my communication, it is covered under fair use - the same should be applicable for scraping the web, or else we can close the internet archive next. Since LLM output isn’t copyrightable, i see no issues with that - and copyright law in the US is an abomination which is only useful for big companies to use as a weapon, small artists don’t really profit from that.


Ah ok, yeah the anticheat should be linux compatible, but they simply don’t activate it for whatever stupid reason. But maybe there is light at the end of the tunnel; since Microsoft is banishing third party drivers from Kernel in the near future, because of the Crowdstrike disaster. That could mean that those anticheats can be run with proton. Only time will tell. gL&hf!


90% of their cash flow comes from google to be the default search engine - they are probably trying to open up alternative routes of funding to reduce the risk, since it’s not guaranteed that the money will keep coming due to the current lawsuit.


Another local LLM guy here, i fully agree with you - this is probably just a move to acquire capital in the case that the google-cashflow stops.
I like it a lot, because it’s clean and lets me switch between the two indexes with one click, and it’s pretty fast and responsive. It’s been my main search while i was a mullvad client, and i dearly missed it after switching my VPN provider. I’m happy they decided to open it up for the public.
