Interesting take. Obfuscating, in a way.

> They've tried training AI on its own generated data, and it quickly degenerates to nonsense.
Did you know that this is not 100% true, only 90% true. Carefully selected and prompted synthetic data that has been tested to be correct is the best training data there is, however it’s not as easy to get in large quantities. However if it becomes smarter then humans then it could just make it on its own and filter it through real world interactions, kinda like how civilisation developed.
> because pleasing humans is its only purpose.
I agree, we gave it purpose and can add reward feedback loops that reward it for pleasing us. Even if we avoid some minmaxxing sci-if version of monkey paw like turning humans into lobotomised chunks of brains in jars optimised to feel nothing but drugged pleasure you still run into the fact that the people developing it have no use for you, so while it could just please humans forever, who decides which humans. Earth has limited resources and our 8 billion population is already straining it, so there will have to be eventually a trade off between bigger luxury and pleasure or lower standards of living but without killing billions of people.

Interesting, however if you look at what’s happening it’s not really helping your case. The country with most solar production and deployment is China, country that does not have many datacenters, they instead use that energy to build more solar panels quicker, and currently have had the first year of decline in emissions. US on the other hand is building natural gas power plants because they can’t produce enough of those cheap solar panels, because just because they are cheap does not mean you can build lot of them easily, things cost materials to build, different materials, not just pouring money into it and magically making it happen. So every bit of energy wasted is bad and not helping.
>>107829377
It is using up lot of electricity and using up drinking clean water, because dirty water or salt water would cause buildup of salt and minerals clogging the system. And when you use clean water you eventually evaporate it and then it rains down (mostly into sea) and goes to become dirty water again requiring more treatment, not to mention that if you are using more water then rains down, you will have to eventually start pumping water from lakes and underground, at which point you are actually using up water that will not return to the lake or ground unless you start consuming less then it rains again.

in some ways they were. we did get to high definition crt (and that shit was amazing) but the tubes and electronics were so heavy it took two fit men to move the tv - and even then those two men would struggle.

>in 2 years it was Crysis.
I get you man, I lived through the 90s and today? Imagine that Crysis is almost 20 years now and it still looks GOOD even by today's standards. Sure, vidya might not be a good benchmark of all technology progress, but it still shows that we have stalled in some aspects. Hardware is vastly more powerful than in 2007 (although it has stalled in its own way - essentially being just buffed up hardware from mid 2000s) but software didn't follow. Instead of utilizing that power for improvements, developers used it to allow themselves to be more sloppy in their work, releasing shitty code is apparently allowed now because the hardware can make up for it.

for motion(games), absolutely.
for black levels, until oled it was superior.

for reading/creating text, never.
a flickerfree lcd is far more comfortable on the eyes. though many use bad pulse width modulation which is worse than crt, you go from rolling scan to staring at a stroboscope.

my favorite was the lg flatron 795+, one of the first with a completely flat screen and no annoying two trinitron lines.

Nothing on Switch 2 is grabbing me (Mario Kart World is kinda boring, the demo for DK Bananza gave me an extremely poor impression of the game, and the other games out so far don't interest me enough to even consider buying them).

Claude works, some Gemini models cut off responses early or give blanks like G3mini Pro (it was working earlier, not sure what happened), GPT 5.2 Pro currently does not work, but I don't think anyone cares and I think I know why. Grok outside of Grok 4 seems to work fine. Chinkope models should still work. Kimi K2 Thinking no longer works.
Regardless, new script released, same pass as before. I may change the password upon the next stable release. Expect bugs.

you have a fundemental misunderstanding of how crts work, improve this before atrempting to argue your retarded points.

>>107829847
crts draw horizontal lines, crts are analog, there is no a fixed limit to how many lines you draw, beyond the physical limits of the tube/circuitry if you tell the gun to draw more 2x more lines , the beam can hit the same phosphors twice , in such a way that the phosphor is only partially lit, you can physically observe this phenomena , I will mention that if you go beyond 2x whatever the mask is capable, you start to get artifacts, where parts of the color information is missing, since too much is obstructed by the mask.

t. have run a 4k signal on a 1920x1440p capable crt

if you have an apeture grille type crt this is less of an issue.

>>107829847

The only acceptable way is to keep all xdg-compliant configurations in /etc/ or ~/.config/,
placing all non-compliant configs in ~/.config/, as well, unless it's simply not an option, and keeping a directory in your ~/ where you cp -r all of your edited dotfiles and cp -rs the directories back in place. Then, root can take custody of the configuration files with trusted code.

>>107827232
No it's not.
Windows was widely regarded as a 16-bit DOS app. So they called the compatibility layer "Windows on Win32", shortened to WOW32.
Fast forward 15 years, Windows was widely regarded as a 32-bit environment. So they called the compatibility layer "Windows on Win64", or WOW64.
You need a System folder for the files used by the compatibility layer, and you might as well name it after the compatibility layer, so "System Folder for Windows on Win64", or SysWOW64.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

There's a long way to get there. Valve doesn't even distribute a version of SteamOS for generic hardware, only builds for specific devices. There's a good reason for that I'm sure, it's probably difficult to actually ensure support and functionality across so many different devices and drivers. The amount of work would be huge so they're probably just focusing on a few things to make sure what they're making actually works as well as it can.

I wouldn't even be so sure that they actually want to be the ones offering something for generic hardware. Putting your name behind something means you need to support it and I'm not sure Valve actually wants to be accountable for desktop Linux working across such a wide variety of systems. I think they might prefer working on their own shit (Proton, DXVK, whatever) and releasing it so other distros can take it and offer the generic version instead.

Why is everything so fucking annoying? Why is everything so fucking stupid? Why can't anything be designed properly from the start?

Why does every little thing have to end up in a well-planned assault? Why can't anything ever be easy? Why does everyone complain about everything at me, but whenever I complain, it's just taken as me being a pussy? Why can't my prayers be answered? Why do my assaults always fail? Why do I have to be strong? Why can't I be a little weak sometimes and just have something just work?

I always hated macs UI from a usability standpoint. I swear to god steve jobs never wanted to move the window controls over to the right hand side to accommodate the majority right handed population because thats how microsoft does it. Same with the stupid ass dock and menu bar. The menu bar makes multitasking hard. Especially if you have multiple windows open of the same program like word or excel. And the dock feels like a half assed attempt at a windows task bar. Its funny how when microsoft ripped off the dock idea from apple they made it so much better. It feels like the entire macos was designed to give you tunnel vision. Where as windows was made for flexibility and easier switching between apps. Shit apple didnt even adopt a proper window tiling feature until recently. You had to hover over the green button and wait for the submenu to pop up.

You have to get the hardware specifically with the idea of using XP x64. Software wise I've had zero issues.

>>107826705
> 2007 which is when XP was still relevant.
2007 was still win2k era. XP era started in like 2010.

>>107823385
Because there was no point to 64 bit XP unless you had over 4 GB RAM, which very few people did back then. Unless you had a need for it, all it did was cause incompatibilities with hardware that only had 32 bit drivers, and use more RAM.

For a more egregious example, look at how long 386 PCs were sold with real mode DOS.
