I haven’t, but I’ve baked enough bread to know that sounds awful

Virtual Machine Manager is what you’re looking for I think

I’m very much not an expert, but I’d imagine it’s similar to how AES-NI works: the task is CPU/GPU-intensive until specific instructions are designed to do whatever blackmagicfuckery level math is required, and once it’s in hardware it’s more both power efficient and faster.

What? Mostly Why though. IDGAF about Where nor How in this specific case, I’m just so confused.

The soda machine is still $1. This both supports the operation and lures the unaware.

This tech isn’t new, exactly, though it’s probably significantly more sophisticated now. I used to work at a company that used similar monitoring a decade ago. Theirs was (allegedly) triggered only by the motion of the vehicle, I believe DriveCam was the brand name. It sucked back then, I’d imagine it sucks worse now.

My guess with the reality of the situation is Amazon or their insurance company required installation of the cameras and a low-to-mid level manager somewhere noticed that singing was triggering them, so the manager told people to stop and eventually you end up with this news story. Amazon gets at worst plausible deniability and shitty things continue.

There was an implied /s there.

If there’s a market for christian shit i’m sure he’ll capture it

There is and he absolutely will. The market for “Christian” specific everything is huge. People that buy that sorta shit also generally don’t know what a good product actually is so costs can be cut and noone’s the wiser.

If this counts as good marketing I’d advise looking for another career

Have you tried factory resetting?

And they told you no, and you went online to write an angry screed about the wrong organization (the organization that pays GNU’s bills btw)?

Maybe go fix the problems they pointed out to you and then remove any code you didn’t personally write or have appropriate permission to use and resubmit it. If you really want to work with them, you need to meet them where they are. They’ve almost certainly been doing this longer than you’ve been alive (same for me tbf, I’m not that old), and while they’re not perfect they write good code.

Maybe it doesn’t need to be.

I’m not going to say AI is completely useless, because it’s objectively not. I’ve heard it’s incredibly helpful in pharmaceutical development and science and shit like that.

LLMs are fancy autocomplete. They guess the most likely next word, based on some fancy-ass math I can’t claim to attempt to understand. They don’t understand the code, or anything really. It’s all math and weighted probabilities internally. How can something that doesn’t understand what it’s actually saying write good, usable, actually correct code all of the time? Sometimes it gets lucky and you get a working snippet, or it rips off someone else’s code (possibly verbatim), and sometimes it just generates nonsense.

I’ve had the last option happen to me personally. I asked it to generate a script in Home Assistant (fantastic software by the way) to dim my lights automatically over half an hour. It worked, sometimes, but the math that actually stepped the light down in brightness wasn’t correct and the script failed intermittently.

Maybe it can help write boilerplate, but realistically there will be additional errors inserted and it will require an actual living breathing human to fix.

This is also entirely beside the point that I think you’re mixing up the FSF and GNU project. They’re related but not actually the same. The FSF is fundraisers and lawyers, GNU writes code. That might be why FSF never responded, though to be perfectly honest given what you’ve said, GNU will likely want nothing to do with it if it’s tainted with AI-generated code. That’s a lawsuit waiting to happen (literally) for no benefit from their perspective.

What exactly do you think the FSF is going to do? Their focus is on lobbying and legal action afaik.

That is an impressive grade of bullshit.

How well has that particular excuse worked with law enforcement in the past?

In case anyone is curious, it’s essentially the same as the PC version on release. 4 apps total (If there are more I can’t find them), 0 other features worth mentioning besides an “install” button.

Not now. Maybe it’ll be useful once the bubble bursts and a few actually decent uses for something that could actually run on a phone emerge from the rubble and actually work.

At the moment I’m not seeing a whole lot overall that actually works unless you’re an expert using it for science or something like that.

In my experience, a lot of “devoutly” religious people are like this.

I grew up Independent Fundamental Baptist (westboro, but less vocally homophobic) and my dad told me a few years ago he secretly kept a stash of alcohol in the garage while he was quite aggressively teaching that the Bible expressly forbade consumption of alcohol that could get you drunk because of a long argument that basically amounts to “Paul said so.” (The proper response to that is “fuck Paul”, obv. Paul was an asshat.)

You can twist anything into anything if you try hard enough, and they’re really good at it.

I tried Flashflood once. Their process is confusing and ended with a store employee being incredibly rude when it was Flashfood’s (and to a lesser extent the store’s) fault.

Decent concept in theory, terrible execution in my experience with that specific service. It’s so much nicer when the store just slaps a sticker on product already on the shelf and knocks down the price.

In our hands is placed a power greater than their hoarded gold,
Greater than the might of armies, multiplied a thousand-fold.
We can bring to birth a new world from the ashes of the old
For the union makes us strong!

n=20. This is wayyyy too small a study to draw conclusions beyond “more research required”.
