Hexorg@beehaw.orgto Technology@beehaw.org•China is about to launch SSDs so small you insert them like a SIM card
1·10 months agoApparently Nintendo switch 2 is using the standard already, so it might go over better than Sony.

2·3 years agoCertainly - and there still are those channels that we all love for their dedication. But there are a lot more mediocre channels too

71·3 years agoYou bring a great point I hadn’t considered before. Only people with passion for something will do it for free while many more people with so that for cash. Though it’s interesting to see that cash doesn’t make passionate people’s content better it just makes more mediocre content.
Hexorg@beehaw.orgto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is your favorite operating system and what do you like about it?
1·3 years agoGentoo. It makes me feel like I’m in full control of my system.
On regular desktop environments I really like Guake - it’s a drop down terminal emulator similar to how old games used to do it. It’s nice for quick use here and there. Though these days I just run tilling wm with xfce-terminal. It gets the job done and still looks good.
Hexorg@beehaw.orgto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What discontinued feature do you miss from phones or other technologies?
1·3 years agoWhat are you talking about? Modern phones are all just slightly different to be incompatible with what you’re talking about.
Hexorg@beehaw.orgto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Does anyone remember a logo that looked like this? None of us can place it but we all think we remember.

18·3 years agoI miss the times when different phones had character. Even phones of the same company looked completely different:

Now it’s just the same rectangle stretched different ways and maybe different color sides.

2·3 years agoI like the concept of IR blaster but the one I had was in Samsung Galaxy s6 (or 5 don’t remember) and it came paired with a HORRIBLE app that tried to do its darnest to datamine your viewing habits and it’d do push notifications 5 times per day with just crappy ads. I really hate all the ad spam on Samsung phones back then. Idk if that’s still the case
Hexorg@beehaw.orgto Gaming@beehaw.org•What type of game do you want to play that doesn't really exist?
4·3 years agoAn MMO where is truly feels like player versus environment and not another pawn versus environment. Stop having 300 people deliver the one lost ring to the same npc for days at a time. I think one way to do it is to provide a general prompt to GPT models and have them generate a few hundred similar but different quests that get assigned per player. But also keep track of these generated differences to weave a story. Make there be more npcs than players.
Hexorg@beehaw.orgto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How many Lemmy users are non-technical background?

Start my own research company.
Hexorg@beehaw.orgto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is a technology/gadget you refuse to use and why?
2·3 years agoOh nice thank you. I have zwave switches with openHAB… I should look into home assistant

6·3 years agoIt’s there a list somewhere of good non-cloud home automation devices… I don’t want to install custom app per brand of lightbulbs ffs
Hexorg@beehaw.orgto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What app is so useful, you can’t believe it’s free?

Hexorg@beehaw.orgto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Who did you have a crush on that went nowhere?English
1·3 years agoI had crush on this girl in my class, Julia. We were 13 maybe 14 I don’t quite remember. I had a crush but was to chicken to act on it. Then one day I get a love note. From Julia. She’s left handed and the note is obviously written by a left handed person too. I’m super stoked. Write the reply back and sneak it into her back pack… days go by, weeks go by, nothing… wtf?! when I was 15 I moved very long distance and that was that.
Then with Facebook a lot of my old classmates started popping up there and I’ve added a lot of them and we reminisced about the old times. So curiosity is killing me. I ask Julia if she’s ever did notes. She never mentioned my note but said she was never into them and never wrote a single one. Wtf #2?!
Then it hit me. You see, in the class of 27 we had two left handed Julia’s. And the other one always acted odd when I was around. But I never paid any attention to it.
Hexorg@beehaw.orgto Gaming@beehaw.org•Working parents, how do you find time to game?English

Hexorg@beehaw.orgto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•what movie/show made you think "WTF did I just watch?"
5·3 years agoHypercube. So many unanswered questions!
Interesting. I could never get it working on windows 7 nor 10.


Its an interesting perspective, except… that’s not how AI works (even if it’s advertised that way). Even the latest approach for ChatGPT is not perfect memory. It’s a glorified search functionality. When you type a prompt the system can choose to search your older chats for related information and pull it into context… what makes that information related is the big question here - it uses an embedding model to index and compare your chats. You can imagine it as a fuzzy paragraph search - not exact paragraphs, but paragraphs that roughly talk about the same topic…
it’s not a guarantee that if you mention not liking sushi in one chat - talking about restaurant of choice will pull in the sushi chat. And even if it does pull that in, the model may choose to ignore that. And even if it doesn’t ignore that - You can choose to ignore that. Of course the article talks about healing so I imagine instead of sushi we’re talking about some trauma…. Ok so you can choose not to reveal details of your trauma to AI(that’s an overall good idea right now anyway). Or you can choose to delete the chat - it won’t index deleted chats.
At the same time - there are just about as many benefits of the model remembering something you didn’t. You can imagine a scenario where you mentioned your friend being mean to you and later they are manipulating you again. Maybe having the model remind you of the last bad encounter is good here? Just remember - AI is a machine and you control both its inputs and what you’re to do with its outputs.
