All these downvotes make me wonder if people know that Saudi Arabia is the chair of the UN gender equality forum.

LOL

Yeah, agreed. That’s not what I asked though.

This response is a bit of a misdirection since we all discuss shit that isn’t the most important all the time.

No he doesn’t.

I can give better advice in a similarly easy to consume manner, applicable to most.

1. Invest in a low cost target date fund. Look at Vanguard target date funds for examples and pick a year close to your expected retirement date.

2. Pay your highest interest debt before lower.

Both of these pieces of advice make you more money than doing what Ramsay says and are equally easy to understand.

Given what I think I know about LLMs, I agree. I don’t think they’re the path to AGI.

The person I replied to said AGI was never going to emerge.

They’ll find a way to blame Dems in the end too, I suppose.

Are you assuming LLMs are the only way humans could ever try making an AGI? If so, why do you assume that?

It sounds hyperbolic but if you assume it will reach human-level intelligence and will have the ability to update its own code, you very quickly have something much smarter than us. Whether it will want to help or hurt us is an unknown. Whether we can control something that’s smarter than us (and getting smarter every second) is unlikely, IMO.

“You’ve chosen the wrong phone” is peak lemmy.

Second only to “ditch Windows, use Linux. I don’t care about your use case”.

Glad I’m not the only one. I read it 3 times and still don’t know what’s being said.

Is it still full tilt?

Looking at CDC graphs of excess deaths, it appears we’re back at baseline. That is, assuming I’m reading this correctly which is very much not a sure thing.

At first I was asking myself why he would admit this but then I realized Trump voters read this and think, “finally, they’ll hurt the right people” and assume they will not be affected.

We have a habit of letting traitors off light in the US.

There’s a worldwide phenomenon of falling birth rates. I doubt it’s even mostly attributable to teen birth rates.

Okay 2 things.

1. I haven’t heard about any security issues with Rustdesk. Can you link to what you’re referring to?
2. It’s strange to see someone concerned about security recommend RDP for remote access when it’s a terrible idea to expose it to the internet. But maybe you mean to expose a VPN and then connect to RDP via that?

Edit: I see you have some info on the Rustdesk point elsewhere in the thread. I’ll read up on that part so don’t feel like you have to repeat yourself here.

No rustdesk but recommend RDP for remoting?

I’m confused on both recommendations.

Either the Dem or Rep nominee will become president. It’s going to happen. There’s no “derailing the train”.

You can doubt me now. You’ll see soon enough.

Everything you suggest seems self evident because you supply the evidence yourself.

It should be obvious to anyone who knows the first thing about how cell phones work.

Remember, you replied to me. You seemed quite proud of your comment and all your links. Unfortunately you completely missed the point.

Plenty of good answers here already. Just want to add a funny anecdote.

I’ve had the same USB charging brick for years, using it for different phones throughout that time. When I check the battery settings when it’s plugged in it “warns” me that I could be charging at a higher rate if I plug into a higher amperage charger. Yeah… I know. I WANT to charge slowly. It’s gonna be plugged in all night, what do I care?

I’ve had my phone for a year, 165 charging cycles, and it says it’s still at 100% health. I do cap charging to 80% and that hasn’t been an issue for my day-to-day usage.

Strange. You wanna be done so suddenly after being shown how obvious the solution is.

we can talk about how batteries aren’t removable in most phones anymore

So don’t buy those. Buy one with a removable battery….

whether or not the act of suddenly buying prepaid phones isn’t itself incriminating

Go use cash, in person.

Again, use your imagination. I refuse to believe I’m smarter than you or anyone else. These seem like obvious solutions.

My incredulity that the person further up the thread couldn’t think of a simple solution to the issue they posed came across as rude. I’m not sorry about it. Think for a minute….

I think everyone in the thread ultimately wants women to be able to get abortions without fear of prosecution.
