You might be able to use something like distrobox instead of a full VM. That would at least put it in a container that you could either run from an encrypted partition or something.
Different users would be the “simple” way you’d normally do something like this under Linux. But if your regular users have sudo access, you can’t really lock anything down.
society as we know it is at risk
They say this as if it’s a bad thing.
Oh no, our wonderful society with absurd wealth distribution and normalized pedophile leaders is at risk? Albert, fetch me my pearls that I may clutch them!
Pain. It notifies you that your body is injured in some way, and generally in what area so that you can do something about it.
That being said, I think your original premise is oversimplified. I agree that emotions aren’t instructions, but they’re more than notifications–they’re part of the inner workings of our brains that can happen for a multitude of reasons. The common denominator is that most of them help us survive in some way.
It’s definitely a terrible idea.
Respond with how pleased you are about the new policies, and how they represent discipline and unity. Tell them that if it’s good for soldiers in the military, it must be good for our kids. Include an old picture of Nazi soldiers in uniform, and tell the head how glad you are that she shares your values.
Believing that poverty is a moral failure. Though that’s been an issue for millenia.
My only hope with this is that MS doesn’t have a complete hold on the gaming market anymore. Valve has to hold some serious sway at this point, and MS doing that might backfire on them.
“Software-defined vehicles” is an industry trend. Not specific to AI (the term has been around for a decade or so). It means vehicles that are defined more by their software than by the hardware (which is how people have historically seen vehicles).
As an example, consider your phone. They have hardware specs, but it’s often the software that defines the product more than the specs.
I’ve used both, been daily driving Cachy for a year or two now. CachyOS is a bit easier than plain Arch, in my opinion. I’ve been using Octopi (a gui tool that fronts the package manager) because I never fully got the hang of pacman yet. And I use Btrfs Assistant (another gui tool) instead of configuring snapper from the CLI.
Overall, it’s more involved than something likr Ubuntu or Debian, but it feels manageable.
And it looks as shitty as it drives
I’m guessing some areas/industries are better or worse. Mine seems pretty bad, at least in my area. Being involved in hiring co-ops and new grads has given me a good taste for what the expectations are like, and it’s not great. So my view is probably a bit dismal.
You did an intesive for fluid mechanics?! Are you insane, or a masochist?
The problem is that many “legit” colleges are already degree mills, albeit at a slower pace. In the US at least, colleges are run like businesses. More students means more money. As long as they can maintain an okay reputation, they’ll churn as many students through as they can. The places that let you fast-track like this are just taking the next logical step, and letting the mask slip a little further. The whole system is broken; this is just another symptom.
Not every institution is this way. In my area, there are one or two schools that consistently produce people who actually know something. But it’s a pretty small percentage, all things considered, and I expect the overton window will gradually lessen expectations at those places over time as well.
I work in software on automotive safety-critical software. I left LLMs in the trash.
So yes, I am using it properly.
Honey, I’ve seen the horseshit LLMs churn out. My job is safe.
The most absurd part of this is their inability to dox someone for a month. Give a handful of bored nerds any motivation and they’d have it figured out in a day or two.
He’s been blatantly and unapologetically manipulating the market and funneling funds directly into his and his buddies’ pockets. Why is this worded as if any of this is a mystery?
Information pollution.
Saying “AI pollution” would be like saying “microplastics pollution” – we generally refer to the thing being polluted, not the pollutant.
