In my country everything is a app nowadays which sucks more ass than you can imagine.

I'm a legit student and entitled to student discounts on trains. One day I noticed that my student card app had stopped working because it wanted to be updated and - you guessed it - my iOS version wasn't supported anymore.
I had no time and even less interest in buying a new 500-dollar student card machine just because the guy who made the app is a lazy fuck who refuses to code in support for older iOS versions.
You know what I did? I quickly coded a mockup version of the app. A screenshot wouldn't be enough because the app has animated shit to prevent that. I used CSS to mimic the animations.
I remade the QR code so that it takes you to my personal website which simply states "yup, the student status is valid".

Amazingly, it worked. The weird thing is that 10 years ago I couldn't of forged my physical student card no matter what. But in the "secure" digital era any asshole can remake an app in a couple of hours.

>you're a criminal
No I'm nut. If I'd gotten caught, they could of phoned my university and check that my student status is valid. The app itself is just an unnecessary middle man making me watch ads and I don't understand why I'd have to use it.

If you want to use ancient hardware, you have to switch to Android.
Apple is killing support for iOS versions other than the last two or three in the App Store all the time.
Buy new or gtfo, it's the Apple experience.
>>
>>107841567
But everyone keeps saying how Apple has the longest support
Android has a different approach. You can keep installing shit forever but you might actually brick your phone by upgrading to a newer version of Android
It happened to me. An update made the phone sluggish and USB no longer worked. Couldnt even roll back
Apple makes sure their products dont get bricked, but the downside is that you're literally barred from installing something that might not work

>If you want to use ancient hardware

My phone is 7 years old. I guess it classifies as "ancient" by today's standards.

I think it's such a consumerist goy mindset to think your phone is too old when it physically still functions as intended.
Something like a student card app is literally just a blinking light and a QR code as a standalone application.
I dont see why a phone from 2010 wouldn't run that. Why does text and a gif animation require a new phone every 3 years? It's not like I'm getting new features - the old features are just requiring better hardware. This is what boggles my mind

Nobody said it couldn't, just that Apple doesn't want you to.

I thought this too when i saw the date on my ereader. Its change log is vague, only thing it says is "security and stability" or something to that effect. Features that were in beta 10 years ago are still in the beta tab, there are no perceivable changes. In fact, the only thing that has changed is that i can no longer access the sync feature or the kobo book store from the reader. Just fails it every time. So yeah, surprising to see it was updated as recently as a few months ago only to have nothing different and less features working on it. Doesn't really mean much does it?

Again, my original point was that i think it's actually crazy that this ancient device is barely any worse than something i just purchased in Amazon that released this last year. Its hard to believe so little has changed performance wise.
>>
>>107840463
I don't know the exact device you purchased but for I don't think that there have been no improvements.
For reflowable ebooks a decade old device is good enough and there hasn't been much need to update but for pdf and the like those small devices with limited CPU and RAM were barely usable.
>>
I just opened remarkable website, they lock down some features behind a subscription now lmao
I was interested in a big eink to read pdf like textbooks and papers, I guess it's gonna be boox fuck subscription jews. Is the a4 size (13.3") worth it or the 10.3" is enough?

I'm proficient with running and using LLMs (local and SaaS so I think that might help me a little bit.. yes I know I have a lot to learn but I'm willing to put time and effort into it.

A few days ago, something really interesting happened: For the first time, an AI generated a mathematical proof that was not yet known: https://www.erdosproblems.com/728

In most cases where this has happened, it was later discovered that a solution already existed in the literature, but this problem had been formulated incorrectly and was only corrected a few months ago, which means there was no prior literature on it.

Sometimes of you say that AI will be limited by "not being able to create new things," but I think this case shows that it's not quite like that at all, and that most people are still underestimating AIs.

Why is /g/ so one-shotted by the 100% fallacy that they can't see the usefulness of AI?

Because it's not 100% perfect, AI is completely useless.

Are you all just so terrified of AI taking your jobs that you're stuck in a state of delusion, wishful thinking, and desperation?

this is probably my favorite syscall of all time. we could spend weeks discussing this alone. it is extremely powerful, versatile, and widely used. not to mention, it's one of the (somewhat) rare six argument syscalls. some potential points of discussion:

> file-backed vs anonymous mappings
> the concept of pages, page sizing, and alignment
