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.

e-ink displays dont have a use case outside of readers, meaning your device has to be compliant with some sort of e-library, like amazon kindle, who already sells a reader. The target demographic who want a tablet to only read books on is pretty small and they're old people who dont really care about anything but convenience and if it works. trying to sell them on some "kindle but x brand" doesnt work. kids are the one obsessed with media and gaming and will buy shit endlessly to fulfill that end, e-ink is incompatible with their demands

This is a pic hat device I made using ai for a product/software I've branded around the name GHOST LAYERS I also have a GitHub but won't even try to post it becuz of spam or whatever but would anyone buy a LoRa capable pi hat if there was a code repo for the thing and config file on the repo? Cool little pi hat for comms u can develop stuff like chat apps which I have and am working on more. Mine uses a non public sync word which is legal and it's strictly rf not mesh right now so it communicates straight to the other radio not thru nodes or mesh networks. I've yet to encrypt it.
Have a lan chat app which is cool I wanna redo it for wan but need more knowledge on servers and protocols.

>I've yet to encrypt it
I think it would be pretty cool if you could manually transfer keys via serial connection
Does it just send messages in unencrypted plain text atm? What structure are the packets, like would a receiver be able to tell the difference between two different transmitters? Could it even pick up two at once? Do you set a specific band? What about frequency hopping?
>>
That's all available in the config file on the GitHub I'm not well versed in the subject as far it goes I had AI wrote the code for it but I hashed it out thru the prompts a million times til it worked, it's just plain text messages right now

As far as the first statement u made idk what u mean by that? Otar?

An iPad because you want to draw, every other use case you should get the Samsung.
>>
it's actually hilarious how adverse g and ic are to ipads in general. I personally know an extremely talented artist who works for a game studio and works/knows tons of people in the industry. a huge majority of them use an ipad + procreate for at least the beginning stages of their sketches or artwork. they'll obviously do post work with different programs but it says enough that it's a comfortable medium for professionals and will serve the needs of 99% of the people who are not professionals which is essentially everyone on 4chan. you got nigs on IC that spend thousands on xppen gear and can barely draw a box in perspective
>>
iPads seems to have a more streamlined software where everything is cohesive.

Samsung's software is all over the place with 10 different fonts for the home screen. That being said Samsung ad blocker is the best I have ever seen. It even blocks ads on apps like YouTube and TikTok.
>>
If you want to draw seriously just get a drawing tablet for pc, not having keyboard shortcuts will hinder you
If you just want to sketch occasionally it doesn't really matter what tablet you get
>>
>>107849927
The problem with drawing tablets is that you need a PC to use them. Without a PC, they are useless.

Containers provide process (quit calling everything "app" you retarded mouth-breathers) segregation without the ridiculous overhead of full-blown virtualization. It's not ideal, but it's a huge advance compared to "program <just_trust_me_bro.exe> requires administrator access, Y/N?"

All these fags that weren't alive back then I swear.

Windows 3.xx was considered decent because that's all people really knew other than DOS back then. It did more than DOS and still allowed you to run your DOS shit without much trouble. So it wasn't outright hated.

Windows 95 was shilled worldwide as revolutionary but was pretty hated due to constant BSoD problem. Win98 was the same but considered more tolerable because it had all the updates for Win95 bundled in (mostly USB support was all anyone cared about). The entire 9x series was considered horrible.

Windows 2k was beloved because NT actually got decent by then. It still ran most of your Win 16/32-bit and DOS shit. Although, a lot of people (/v/ermin) cried about how it wouldn't run games despite never having used it.

WinME was a huge joke and everyone thought it was shit. So many teenagers got stuck with shitty pre-builts when it came out. No idea why but at that time everyone was buying them for their children for the first time. No self respecting person wanted it. I made a lot of money installing Win2k for people back then.

WinXP was considered a worse 2k and the GUI was laughed at by everyone. It didn't become tolerable until SP2 and most people only moved on from 2k because of Microsoft forcing people over. It also ate far more RAM and was never as stable.

Vista was shit and widely hated like ME. Windows 7 was basically Vista with some bugs fixed so was in the same boat as 98. Most people preferred to stay on XP for good reasons.

I've probably used Windows 7 the most, simply because that's what was out while I was in high school and uni, but I don't actually have any memories of it in particular. It wasn't super good, and it wasn't dogshit, was just kinda basic and generic. I remember more of my dad using Win95, and I was only 4 by the time 98 came out.
>>107821681
>Windows 7 is not good. Its just not as bad as what came after.
Kinda, yeah. It's a very 'alright' OS.
>>
>>107821060
I only remember that XP locked up frequently in the worst ways imaginable due to buggy software, requiring full power cycle. But it also ran the largest number of obscure indie games that don't work even on Windows 7

>>107846308
no one liked windows 10 auto installing itself on their 7 system. i remember before 10 came out in the RC stages i had installed it on a thinkpad to testbed it and it would routinely uninstall the graphics driver due to "known compatibility issues" this continued into full release and it took years for Microsoft to stop uninstalling random shit on your computer for vague compatibility reasons, plus it was slow as shit and still is, you couldnt control updates, one of the major releases around 2018 just outright broke drivers and only kept a rollback feature for 10 days, most of the people who brought me their computers for these issues needed a whole reinstall, and guess what, your windows 7 product key that 10 upgraded itself with could not be used to reinstall 10, so the customer had the options of going back to 7 or if they actually liked 10, pirating it. Now my main local customers are people whos computers installed 11 on their own or bricked itself with windows update and they are more thrilled than ever to have LTSC installed. People come up to me in public and thank me that their computer isnt sitting at an update screen for 10 hours, no one did that for 8, no one did that for vista. 10 is only reflected positively upon because 11 doubled down on how shit it is

"Better" depends on what you're looking for but the selling points of CachyOS are easier installation than base Arch and packages with optimizations for modern hardware that can give a modest performance increase.

I've got one of the previous gen Apple TV 4Ks currently for Plex.

I haven't yet tried Swiftfin, but the other day, I was finally watching the latest Monogatari thing and noticed all the signs were weirdly distorted; I thought, "did motbob just fuck up really bad here somehow", then I remembered I was using Infuse -- switched back to Plex (libmpv) and magically everything was perfect.
And then last night, on my desktop, I was just opning some DVD as a test, used VLC to check the menus, and I have no idea what was causing it, but it felt like it was stuttering during the demuxing. Again, just opened it in mpv, perfect.

I want to switch off of Plex so badly, and I've got a good opportunity this coming week to do it, but man, the idea of exclusively vlckit or Infuse doesn't give me confidence. And from what I could tell, the official Android TV app uses ExoPlayer or something currently? Are there any solid TV interfaces for Jellyfin that are mpv-based under the hood?
>>
>>107831168
I haven't ever looked at the Jellyfin codebase, but ORMs are inevitably helll, from my experience, every time. Raw dogging prepared statements is honestly ideal, imo, for maintainability. I'm very surprised every time I've checked in on Jellyfin, there's always some "and we finally switched to EF Core, for real for real this time!" for like four years now.

Wtf is the structure of this like? I'm kind of terrified to look; even redoing all the serialization/deserialization for one of the most fucked MMO projects, converting over to Postgres from some ghetto DIY binary-per-player on disk that'd then get passed around over the network to the different worlds, wasn't more than a couple of weeks or so at most.

Is there something about their data that makes this way more complex than I'd have imagined, or is this just some scenario where nobody has the motivation to fully commit to it for a month?
