This feature is completely optional and is never turned on by default.

So far…

In SOME cases, it is cheaper than on prem. If you need a lot of compute power occasionally, it can be cheaper. If you actually scale up and down according to the load (which a lot of companies do not do), it might be cheaper. But a large amount of companies don’t fall in those cases or don’t do it efficiently. Some spend in a year the same amount they would have paid for on prem servers they would have kept 5 years or more.

Cloud providers offer other things like multi regional redundancy, which can be hard to achieve for smaller businesses.

Macron said he would do exactly that in June.

I’ll belive it when he actually does it.

I have a rough idea of their efficiency as I’ve used them, not in professional settings but I wager it would not be too different.

My point is more that it feels like the rugs are finally starting to get pulled. This tech is functionnal as you said, it works to a point and that point is enough for a sizeable amount of people. But I doubt that the price most people are paying now is enough to cover the cost of answering their queries. Now that some people, especially younger devs or people who never worked without those tools are dependant on it, they can go ahead and charge more.

But it’s not too late, so I’m hoping it will make some people more aware of that kind of scheme and that they will stop feeding the AI hype in general.

Hopefully (?) this is the start of a trend and people might begin to realize how all those products are not worth their price and AI is an overhyped mess made to hook users before exploiting them…

I find this baffeling. Multiple people, on different topics did disagree with his campaigns promises, and voted for him against their best interest. (Farmers for exemple) Their justification ? “He won’t do it”. Are you telling me you are voting for someone who promises to do things, in the hope that he does all the other things but the one that would negatively impact you ? REALLY ?!

I’d think these people probably make up a single number digit of the amount of games bought and never played.

It would be interesting to have a breakdown of which games werr bought and never played. How many of them were gifts ? What’s the share by rating ? Even better : When were the copies the most bought but never played ? This could bring up some interesting partterns.

Probably read my comment a little fast but that’s okay. This fucking sucks, I hope we get out of this chat control nonsense at some point, otherwise decentralised and self hosted services and messaging apps will have to be the way to go.

So, not in favor of privacy… Fucking amazing…

Not mentionning that anyone can set up their own VPN server… Good fucking luck with that 💀

Not sure what Jo listens to but I recognized myself in his description.

You can lookup Sewerslvt (Mr.Kill Myself) for an exemple. I also listens to :

• Machine Girl (Try Krystle URL Cyberplace Mix)
• Goreshit (Try Fine Night or Black is the new black)
• Loffciamcore ( A little more hardcore than the others, try Eat Me)

J’attends encore de voir l’utilité et l’efficacité, j’ai de l’espoir, on pourrais en tirer du bon si c’est pour assister. En revanche je suis quasiment certain que ça vas être utilisé pour d’autres taches et que ce sont les demandeurs d’emplois qui vont en faire les frais…

Au moins c’est une boite d’IA française…

If it’s not another name for it, it’s definitely very close to the Overton Window.

AI users implies they are deployed and managed by the a company and can be configured to push ideas and agendas.

This is quite a big problem imo…

What are the consequences of this particular patent expiring ?

Damn that’s some great work ! When I started linux I wish I had found such ressources, I was really curious what each of these directories were for.

Would you mind if your material was reused (with credit) for education purposes ?

Maybe some AI upscaling could do the trick ?

Sadly it’s the case for a lot of open source softwares I feel. I’ve had the same feed back on GIMP.

But honestly once you get used to it, it has some really great tools that actually make it just as powerful (if not more depending on who you ask) than its direct competitor: Adobe Lightroom.

It’s a little rough to get into it, but imo it’s worth the investment.
