No, LLMs only contain a bunch of numbers that predict which word is likely to follow the previous ones. Their output resembles knowledge simply because the most likely combination of words is one meant to convey information.

This is why my hope is on Redox OS. I wish it would get a bit more resources.

I’m not arguing about what is technically possible. I’m arguing about what is practically possible: Samsung (biggest market share) supports LC3 for example, but they can also break it and replace it with their custom codecs to lock people into their ecosystem. Making Sony LDAC the only real choice, and there’s no telling when they will break that too. This means that in practice, only SBC and to a lesser extent AAC and SBC-XQ are the only codecs you know for certain will work.

Only if both your device and your earbuds both support aptX Lossless, which in practice means it almost never gets used because Samsung (holder of most of the market) does not pay for the licence or enable it in their phones, and the Chinese brands only do so for specific tiers and processors.

AFAIK there’s an upper limit to how good can they sound anyway because Bluetooth is kinda crap for audio.

A lot of people need to learn to both say no, and not care about what people say after you said no.

People who have 0 interest in respecting your choices are not worth pleasing.

If you get enough people to move to the clone, that stops being true though. The clone gets to decide the direction from that point onwards.

Considering how 4chan is, a more likely outcome is that you’re getting called at least 3 different slurs because someone will either hate the slop, or perceive your insecurity about being unable to do art and decide to attack you.

I’ve only remember ever having audio dissappear during the really early Ubuntu days (We are talking like version 7 or 8). Now if you told me Linux has issues with audio crackling due to apps requesting absurd audio parameters, then yeah, that was a more recent and persistent issue that only recently seems to have gone away.

Mine has nearly everything other than brand preferences wrong, since I buy both my stuff and other people’s stuff plus gifts through the same account.

My (soon to be ex) bank recently decided to make everyone use their ID card number which can be obtained from many sources and does not change, a username with symbols and numbers and minimal length requirements which cannot be changed and a 4 digit pin code. No 2FA at all, so its only saving grace is that you get locked out at 3 tries.

I’m guessing they are trying to align everything to their legacy ATM pin code system instead of making the ATM system better.

Cool, continue to dismiss other people’s circumstances. It makes for a very convincing argument.

I don’t even live in Australia so said conditions might be more common than you think.

The pattern here is that most people can only afford one car, and needing to drive 350+ km between towns is not a daily necessity but still a common occurrence, otherwise you get stranded between towns in life threatening temperatures. Please explain how having power at home fixes that without charging stations in-between.

Seeing as this is about global sales, the infrastructure argument still applies and will apply for the foreseeable future even if you live somewhere where driving and consumption patterns fit EVs perfectly.

I have no issue with spiders, but now that a small lizard took residence somewhere in the house there’s almost none left. And also no other insects as well.

All Android devices are Linux, it just happens to be the worst kind of Linux possible: one that entirely depends on proprietary drivers and is controlled by a company hellbent on closing it down through total dependence on their services.

Learning to build both automated and fiber operated 3D printed drones is probably a better use of your time. And learning some fun chemistry and electronics.

You also get the same issue with trans men. We a had a local case where a trans man was convicted of a crime, and the local authorities decided to send him to a male prison, respecting his self-identification. He proceeded to immediatly challenge this through the courts for obvious reasons.

In this situation, it’s impossible to escape the drawbacks of your biology so long as prisons assume a dichotomy. And the vast majority of the population considers any criminal to be subhuman anyway, so asking them to acommodate a sub-percentage of what is already a tiny 0.1% of the population is impossible. They would sooner vote to just execute them to save themselves the hassle and expense.

The older you get the easier it gets to abandon all streaming services to be honest.

Every high production value movie is a cliche you can guess 5 minutes in. And the few outliers get so much publicity you will probably hear about them anyway and be able to get a copy through other means.

I guess it’s also why apparently CD sales have been picking up. Easier to just rip your favorite music and listen to/stream your own collection than deal with a mess of different services.
