Apple has its own can of worms, but privacy usually isn’t the issue. At least in comparison to other tech giants.

As I said, those are all 1st party applications. I don’t see it anywhere being OS-wide. And what’s “smartlook”? Do you mean Spotlight? I haven’t seen any AI in Spotlight, but I also haven’t installed (the janky) Tahoe yet.

On MacOS, at least for now, AI isn’t prominent at all. I’ve been using an M4 Air for a month before I remembered that Apple Intelligence was a thing and had to google how to use it. So far it only seems to be partially available in 1st party Apple apps which I don’t use anyway.

For every game that breaks compatibility due to anti-cheat there’s 100s more new games that don’t have it and probably run on Linux just fine. So on average, the compatibility always goes up.

Can somebody please put Morpheus and Neo on a Magic Carpet with caption “I can show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes”? Thanks.

gpus were expensive back then

Wait till you hear about the current GPU prices…

Shouldn’t it be “lie around”?

I’m surprised these don’t use those solid state batteries that were in the news like a year ago.

It’s the shit.

Today my lecturer, whose English is very bad, pronounced “c” in “artificial” as a “k” and it sounded like “arti-fecal”. And I thought Lemmy would love the term “artifecal intelligence”.

Is it weird that I can tell this is a Xiaomi store?

True, that totally happens to me all the time, too. For example, yesterday it was repeatedly insisting that there’s a certain checkbox in qbittorrent settings, which wasn’t there. I gave it the screenshot of the setting page and it “realized” it’s named differently. So in the end, it helped me with something that I couldn’t google properly. It’s a supplementary tool for me.

Happened to me yesterday. I have an old 4K TV, every component I used to connect to it had HDMI 2.0+ capabilities. Neither laptop nor Steam Deck would output 4K60, only 4K30. Tried getting another cable and a hub, same result. And I know that my Chromecast outputs 4K60 to this TV, so I was extra confused. In my desperation, asked GPT-5 what was I missing, and it plainly told me that those old Samsung TVs turn off HDMI 2.0 support unless you explicitly turn it on in TV settings under “UHD Color”. Apparently Chromecast was doing chroma subsampling, but computers refused and wanted full HDMI 2.0 bandwidth…

Huh. Well, to be fair it’s been a while since I played it…

Hmm… I don’t remember that being in the original.

Why, exactly?

I understand that pears are prayers, but what are the thoughts stand-ins? It’s the tater tots thingy?

The one who’s hard to understand is you, with your complete lack of punctuation. “/s” is extremely common and pretty much everybody understands what it means. If you didn’t know until now, no biggie, now you do and all is well.

And to answer your question, if a comment or a paragraph ends with an “/s”, then you can be sure the author was being sarcastic in that comment/paragraph.
If there’s no indicator, it could still be sarcastic or it could be serious, use your own judgement.

So no, not everything should be taken as sarcasm.

Well, first of all, it’s old people slang at this point.

And second, I don’t understand your outburst. You’re free to start a serious thread about criticizing Russia’s rhetoric, right next to the sarcastic thread that is criticizing Russia’s rhetoric.

“/s” isn’t 4chan slang, it’s generic forum slang that existed before 4chan. It’s a shortened version of XML-style closing tag.
