I usually use English to talk to Gemini, but the other day I wanted to try and find out the original band of a Siberian punk song that I have carried around in my music collection since time immemorial. Problem is the tags are all over the place in this genre and there are situations where "Foo-Bar" and "Foobar" are two completely different bands. Gemini was clearly trained on some genre forums from late 90s which are... shall I say non-PC by any stretch of the term.
In the middle of the conversation it randomly switched from English to Russian and clearly struggled to maintain the tone imposed by the built-in prompt.
Inb4: not remotely in the marine field, so a genuine question. Would it really make an impact?
Robotaxis market is much broader than the submersibles one, so the effect of consumers' irrationality would be much bigger there. I'd expect an average customer of the submarines market to do quite a bit more research on what they're getting into.
Having the whole world meming on rich dudes in submarines could plausibly make the whole industry seem less cool to people with the money to buy even a good submarine. Imagine being a rich dude with a new submarine and everybody you talk to about it snickers about you getting crushed like Stockton. Maybe you'd just buy a bigger yacht and skip the submarine, which you were probably only buying for the cool factor in the first place...
Printers prey specifically on fear. When talking to them, gotta be polite but firm. No more than three threats during the conversation, and the threats have to be credible.
I strongly recommend investing in some lights-out management (IPMI, KVM or alike) solution that doesn’t depend on any OS peculiarities.
Configuration switching and rollback mechanisms aren’t exactly reliable with trickier setups, as it doesn’t account for any ephemeral state (like what’s actually in the routing tables), and that stuff cannot be always preemptively declared upfront. I’m afraid that despite a lot of efforts, the only truly reliable method to ensure system will come back is still to deploy-and-reboot.
True, it's not a full replacement for ipmi-ish tech. There are ways the deployed waiter can fail before it times out and triggers the rollback. Deploy often enough and you will hit all wonderful edge cases. I treat it as a first line of defense that saves me time on scooting the chair over to me server cabinet and yanking the cords.
WRT ephemeral state -- NixOS allows to minimize this. Coupled with impermanence, all non-declared and non-externally-retrievable state is wiped away upon reboot. And if it's not declative and not retrievable, I just don't use it. Homelab allows for a lot of choice in that regard
The screenplay part made me think. While it's true that an LLM could potentially generate a better^ script, while writing scriot the author would probably had had many ideas that did not make it to the final draft. Yet those ideas would definitely influence the final product, the movie. There's probably only so much you can put in the script really.
Meaning for the brother is one thing, but as a potential watcher, I would almost always prefer a movie that someone really cared about^^.
^: depending on the definition of "better"
^^: as a fallible human being I am not perfect at detecting that care, but there had definitely been cases in my life when someone was talking about a thing that I would not really care about otherwise, but their passion made the talk extremely interesting and memorable
Not that poster but I can also tell the difference in sound between filesystems, likely due to how they store their metadata and the resulting seek patterns. This is my subjective experience:
Linux ext* series - mostly silent, but even periods of high disk usage tend to be on the quieter side - probably due to lots of caching
MacOS - continuous, low-pitched "gritty" sound
Windows FAT - periods of silence punctuated by occasional intermittent groans
Windows NTFS - low rhythmic grunting, more continuous than FAT
Windows 9x - rather quiet, although periods of heavy activity can produce quite high-pitched seeking sounds
Not an iPhone person, however when I force shutdown a laptop I am hacking away on, I do feel like I am strangling it with a pillow to ease it's suffering. But that feeling comes purely from my side, the machine shows no signs of life at that point anyway.
Are you referring to something like the GPRS staccato coming from speakers catching a cell phone call or the almost imperceptible flyback whine of a CRT?
Having done this way back when on both: go with a VM first.
Targeting a known set of virtual devices makes a lot of things much easier when building LFS. Dev ux is also much nicer:, you get faster restarts, a socket and optional snapshots to go back to a known less broken state.
The new one (full display under keyboard) is super interesting. I think they presented it at CES.
Previous one had I believe like a companion display occupying ~1/3 of the keyboard side which looked pretty neat. I wish frame.work had an option like that -- seems way more feasible than Lenovo's contraption with motors and flexible screen, though not sure if it would be possible given the space budget.
