It’ll just be used for browsing office work so sounds like it’ll be fine.

It’s thinkpad T420. Is it powerful enough for Cinnamon?

What’s the easiest and most secure linux distro for a non-techie? This is for a spare thinkpad I want to try linux on.

That’s about frickin time! That’s what makes neighbourhoods livable.

I am disappointed.

hey Can you post this in c/technology?

We are getting fucked by Trump.

This is NOT small grants. This is MASSIVE.

In one case, Toronto-based company Scale Hospitality received at least $11 million in grants to train workers in its chain of restaurants, despite receiving a low score from bureaucrats.

In another case, CTV News revealed a casino, spa and hotel company got some $9 million in grants — millions more than had been announced. Its CEO is also a PC donor.

An April MIT study found AI Large Language Models (LLM) encourage delusional thinking, likely due to their tendency to flatter and agree with users rather than pushing back or providing objective information.

Large companies (defined as having more than 250 employees) have reduced their AI usage, according to the data (click to expand the Tweet below). The slowdown started in June, when it was at roughly 13.5%, slipping to about 12% at the end of August.

Someone explain to me how I am to see this “rate” as - is it adoption rate or usage rate? IF it is adoption rate 13.5% of all large firms are using it? and it’s declined to 12%? Or is it some sort of usage rate and if so, whatever the fuck is 12% usage?

Manufacturing has a bigger multiplier effect than other sectors, so that’s not good news.

I’ve always thought it was weird we do.

Trump is pressuring Mexico to impose tariffs. Guess who’s next?
