1 Wikipedia article page saved as ASCII text takes up 25KB at the lowest.

Then do it. Either search on the internet or write your own software that reads a black and white bitmap, then bursts out the data as tones and listens to it on the other end. People used fax machines and cards instead of sound card outputs because voltage difference between speaker output and what phone systems used, so your usecase is really niche.

Closed source software is not the same as patent protected software. Releasing a offline usable closed source binary under no license is so much more ethical then a proprietary (patent) license that threatens people with prison time and civil liability for sharing/modifying software or using it the wrong way. Also the addition of spyware sometimes and cloud tethering. Which I also oppose.

But it seems TMK that Stallman may conflate offline usable closed source and patented software as if they are both as bad. but maybe some people know more about him then I do, Does he recognize the difference and what does /g/ think of the difference? I'm saying I strongly agree with Stallman big tech patent hoarding and patent trolling is harmful, and and I view the GPL3 like a voluntary contract programmers agree to participate in and hope to abolish all patents one day, but I'm not following his logic that seems to hint at closed source software being illegal as an ultimate goal. Patents should be illegal but not software with no public code.

>>107737754
my brain had a malfunction I conflated patented software and copyright software with heavy restrictions.

I think all copyright should be replaced with non disclosure and public agreements. NDA for closed source among a team of developers. And the GPL3 and BSD reimagined as a public contract that activates whenever someone modifies GPL code.

Honestly if it was just copyright laws preventing sharing of software I wouldn't care. What pisses me off is how ideas are protected by the state. In example Adobe held a 20 year patent on adjustment layers, or Namco patenting the loading screen mini games. Or how some licenses say you can't legally modify the software even in your home or only they can fix the hardware. Similar to right to repair laws. That is what I am against.

It just seems that Stallman views it as a human right to modify other people's software, that is where I disagree. Its a voluntary agreement of people participating in GPL3 software.

>>107737922
Fact check them. Grok and DeepSeek do not understand but they do have very good fact checking abilities.
https://www.reddit.com/r/GROKvsMAGA/

The most likely hallucinations are when Grok gives something that sounds like an answer but is a complete fabrication. DeepSeek doesn't do that much at all but Grok does from time to time. Other then source checking the best thing to do is have the same conversation with different AIs several times and look for consistency and tell them to cite the sources.

Just like people on Mastodon fall short of understanding freedom. The concept of positive vs negative liberty.

Dude on Mastodon rails against software patents, big tech cloud tethering everyone's software, and supports local offline software use. I strongly agree with him there. Then I read more of his post and he goes on about how much he loves the EU and thinks that Government should pay all FOSS devs and how a massive welfare state is salvation. That's the point I diverge on. Its positive vs negative liberty and I have taken negative liberty to its logical conclusions. Where as the people on Mastodon and Stallman are mixing both in inconsistent ways.

Stallman wants total digital sovereignty as do I
but he also wants to keep the strong centralized government to provide welfare state creature comforts.I don't think you can have a Government that represents the people and as I cited in a previous post the EU is violating civil liberties while leftist on Mastodon celebrate them . Stallman expects both total privacy where Government doesn't know who you are and a massive welfare state to care for people. That is a huge logical contradiction he has. You can't have both and you must pick one, freedom or dependency!

When taking negative liberty to its extreme conclusion it would be better to live in a world without GPL3 licensing if it meant that most copyright and all patents were abolished since the early 90s onward. But we'd have to do that from the start, as like I said patents already gave capitalist pigs a huge advantage that can't be undone. The timeline we're in is fucked

Getting programming jobs by June will be incredibly difficult. All the entry-level and intermediate jobs will be accomplished via a $1000/month subscription to claude code. Every subscription will replace 10 full-time jobs.
Many companies will go under. There will be no jobs. Only FAGMAN will be "safe". Most FAGMAN employees will either quit voluntarily or fight dirty to not get fired.
Programming Jobs and Software jobs are KAPUT in six months. You have been warned.

I mentioned on a /pol/ thread about SSD prices that I had a Samsung 840 pro SSD that had basically been on 24/7 since I bought it 14 years ago. An anon in that thread wanted crystaldiskinfo but I was too lazy to reinstall windows on it. Then a Russian anon told me about smartmontools. Hopefully both of them will find this thread since that one is now archived.
Now, to the main two points of this thread.
-Can anyone beat my high score?
-How long do you think this MLC SSD can last? Because I'm going to run it until failure.

>How long do you think this MLC SSD can last?
As long as you want, it depends on how much you write on it. I think it could last longer if you don't write that much to it and treat it read-only unless you have to really change things.

it's still a locked down platform that is a pain in the ass to support and consumer-hostile, see asahi linux troubles to get everything working on various M generations.
>But now Intel has nearly caught up with ARM performance on its x86 mobile Lunar Lake chips.
yes because arm, x86, riscv, it really does not matter, cpu these days all have some kind of very similar "internal assembly language" that split all the uops into smaller instructions anyways, it's all about design tradeoffs, amd/intel have been making chips with certains loads in mind and apple with others, it's really all there is to it.
I'm glad to see intel and amd getting into this segment too as we definitely need power efficient and performant chips, it's a shame that it will be bga-only, for now amd allow manufacturers to use soldered or dimm ram but I'm not sure it will last as ram speed get faster and faster... maybe camm2 can save us?
I really want socketable efficient chips even if I lose a bit of efficiency as a trade-off, I'm sure there is a good middle-ground atleast for efficient desktop-class computers like the steam machine design-wise or consoles.
