I don't think you get anything about programming either

Pointer orchestrator is slow. Based on the fallacy that you can "go wide". That is solved at the language level, not code level.

I'm not sure if /g/ is the best place for this type of discussion, but I figured you guys would be the ones best acquainted with the contemporary internet.

Where does one begin to find a new internet that's independent from the techno-capitalist conglomerate? I'm 28 years old and I used to be active on /g/, /mu/, /fa/ etc. as well as tumblr in my teenage years, and I remember these days online with great delight. But for the past 10 years I haven't been acquainted with anything aside from scrolling on the biggest social media platforms. Where could I begin to find some new communities or networks aside from coming back to 4chan? I realize that I should just lurk more, but I really would be genuinely interested to hear where others are spending their time online these days.

well the problem with technology is that it is a morally neutral power amplifier: it gives the best people the ability to save the world, and the worst people to create ethical hellscapes.

i could show you any number of recent advances in energy storage and production, mass data processing/interpretation, or biomedical/genetic news, but the potential applications are as awesome as they are scary.

ultimately, humanity will either learn to become better, more responsible people very quickly, or else...

No white pills, if you are not an AI evangelist, it is over. Now go blow yourself up and take a datacenter along with you. Or better yet, TSMC or Samsung foundries.

I love this mascot (picrel) so much. Firefox made a deal with the devil that for every based thing they do they must do five equally unbased things. The result is that you can hammer the browser into something usable but goddamn does it take work.

LibreWolf should get a skeuomorphic icon as a victory lap that it'll outlive vanilla Firefox.

>>108418813
if you're the same one i was talking to in the other thread yeah your first goal is to figure out how to make a (like two or four bit to start with) cpu from logic ics
this is not nearly as difficult or expensive as trying to actually make ics and you'll be much more limited by your intelligence

do you know how a cpu works?
>>
>>108418813
Look at RISC-V there are some real working open source chip designs that you can even run on a FPGA. It's going to be unintelligible until you read up a lot on how processors work at a low level though.

I feel for you anon, I nearly broke my mobo trying to remove the heatsink because the manual said "push the button" on it instead of "slide the button to the left". I pushed down so hard when it finally popped off it slipped and hit the mobo making a God awful sound. I originally wanted to add another ssd but I'm afraid I'll break it. I suppose it doesn’t matter now since nvme drives have almost tripled in price.

I think I'm over generative AI. All the novelty is gone.
Over time I did grow to hate the look generated images have. It didn't evolve at all I won't use it anymore and I avoid looking at it if I see it somewhere.
I'm too poor for local LLMs, basically everyone is and I would quit them too if it was still possible to google shit reliably.
NFI what AIshitters are up on about. Is it really just grifters and other paid shills anymore?
pic related, ironically
>>
good for you
but guess what, a sucker is born every minute
>>
>paid shills
Obviously, if AI isn't going to be profitable then the likes of Microsoft and Google will have lost billions. And what's a couple of million in paid shills? Meanwhile NVIDIA is laughing to the bank because their hardware has already sold through. If the AI bubble pops they'll just go back to gaming. They cannot lose from any perspective whatsoever.
