A proxy only routes traffic while the cpu cycles are happening elsewhere, allegedly, the data center that went offline.

Your argument only makes sense if those proxies are more than just routing network packets but also hosting the actual code of those bots. Oh, and you’d also need to assume there’s no c&c, the bots should be autonomous. Else there’s the single point of failure. If there’s a c&c then they can all go offline with a strike.

This is right on time. I read a discussion on how “Chinese models” are censored on topics like Tiannamen square. But the real issue is that we (average person) are only able to spot such things from a distance (either geographical or temporal.)

This means that “our” models may already have blindspots, reality twists, and the like. Only that we are not (on average) spotting it (yet)

Personalization of answers and bubble reinforcement will come. The algorithms have been increasing their capacity to influence us. Not only for their sheer power solving benchmarks but by the legitimacy that’s being accumulated in the process.

However,

“ChatGPT says to stay calm and keep working hard” /s

Non-local ai server! Just the opposite of what you didn’t want /s but fr. ai horde, idk. Else, some other number cruncher… Not crypto. How about those science distributed calcs? There was one for biology, proteinfold

I liked piefed until I learnt about the hidden filters. But still, I see their point. There are dozens of lefties here! Dozens!!

Edit: thanks rimu for your reply. I was unaware of that post. Piefed is my fav again :) Somehow I was under the impression that piracy comms were banned.

Perhaps the phantom itself was the meme by definition of those days, at the dawn of the Internet… (:

I don’t think it was fat. Just some overweight maybe. Anyway, I traced it back: Frankie LaPenna vs. EngineAI T800

Tactile screen was dreamed by TV. Mobiles covered that. On the technical standpoint, arm power consumption and having music, camera, gps, etc. all resonated with online/! digitalization of our selves. So, yes. I concur!

Lol! This is great. I have some friends that “spontaneously” got interested into human-like robots and the other day shared with me a video of a extremely fake MMA fight in Texas that was human vs. robot

Yet, they claimed it looked real. To which I replied the robot has no pain in their programming and even if it had, how are you supposed to win by submission if they can happily lose an arm and continue…

So, this story and the reactions it sowed are brilliant example to me: we need to stop anthropomorphizing technological advances like robots and LLMs!

Start with Silvia federicci

Cool! A browser extension or userscript to send GPX from other platforms into our deployment would be huge!

Of course it’s a meme and yet I want to comment this. Because I disagree with the premise. Your first responsability is to yourself, taking care of your needs. And resting might as well be one of those.

set the server as git remote and push there directly. set hooks to deploy. I do that for a static site. Is my little iac solution. Search for alternatives to “infrastructure as code”. It can go from simple dockerfile to swarms or kubernetes…

As much as I welcome this I can’t help but wonder, why do they care?

Is it because it was the year of the Linux desktop? ;D

I liked some proposals. I will certainly use LLM far more, and i/o too. But that’s me, I have a preference toward technical terms that are already established. Finding new ones is a challenge. Specialy since they get permeated by our own biases. Or at least that’s what I felt when reading their proposal to replace ai agent. I believe the agency of that system is there, so why not just llm agent? :/

Tiling windows managers? I had a glorious i3 config once, and not long ago installed regolith on the ubuntu machine at work. Soon, on my laptop, I will try Noctalia with either Umbria or Niri.

Github holds plenty of examples to bypass chinese great firewall. I would say you use a vps and set up those proxyies, a while ago it was shadowsocks. Today, idk. Maybe amneziawg. Not sure if you can make the clients work on windows 7, in any case just get a travel router set it up there and use that as the filter to your connection. Break down the problem into pieces. And yes, that router and/ or vps will have Linux (:

I wonder if any major project has had forks because of their inclusion or exclusion of AI.

And I’m unsure if that’s positive or not. Maybe it is because it can accommodate the needs and wants of everyone. But then again there’s division and all this tension. The polarization is too much right now. And it may even grow further, as the AI enticement becomes deeper with cheaper, smarter, whatever may happen… Meanwhile, oligarchs are enjoying their Datacenters and pushing their agenda for surveillance and control or even monopoly of one voice, the voice of AI, that holds “the truth” with examples as whatever you get when asking DeepSeek about Tiannamen square. And chatgpt may have blindspots of their own that we are yet to see.

What I’m trying to say is that the political debate is bigger than what any community can really hold without accepting a certain degree of heterogeneity.

We were always doing it ( stupid memes )

thanks for the info. Perhaps you can post into one of those fediverse or meta communities.

PS. I really enjoyed the instance science_memes section. Did the mods migrate the community elsewhere? I’d be up for creating one under programming.dev if needed but I rather not do a takeover.
