The always free tier resources are really quite substantial.
The Chinese AI companies open sourcing their LLMs is an absolutely genius move for undermining the big American AI companies.Releasing the source allows companies and individuals to host their own models locally for only the cost of hardware and electricity. The big drawback of course is that the open source models like Deepseek and Kimi K2 aren't quite as good as the big players like Claude and ChatGPT, but they provide a good enough option for a lot of uses. They also continue to distill better models' weights all the time. This means that the open source models will eventually catch up if the closed source models aren't continuously improving.Anthropic and OpenAI both plan to eventually make money by hooking enough customers on their service and then increasing costs until they can make money. At current prices, inference isn't profitable for these companies, but it's close enough that it could possibly become profitable. Training new models is a huge money sink and is likely a very long way from being profitable, if it ever is. The existence of open source models forces the big players to continue training new models at a huge loss in order to be able to charge for their service while the competition is free. If free models like Deepseek get close enough in quality, nobody will pay for LLM access.All the Chinese companies have to do is continue applying this small amount of pressure at a relatively low cost, and either the American companies will be forced into charging so much that customers will balk, or they'll run out of investor money and go broke. I don't get why this isn't the first thing that comes up in every conversation about AI as a business.Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
What's open source about "open source" AI? They are black boxes and the source training data isn't included to avoid the inevitable lawsuits.
>>108535642Let's bump bums
>>108535642Well I guess they're better described as open weight. The important part is that they're free of charge and generally come with an MIT license or similar.

>>108533730>>108533685There will always be something non-portable about using freestanding C, for example, it doesn't even define an entry point, but you've still got the core of the language, including some of the standard library headers that don't rely on a runtime (e.g. stdint.h, limits.h).In theory it doesn't require a runtime at all, but GCC wants things like a definition of memcpy/memset, so it'll link in libgcc to provide those.

With just a few obscure functions left I just defined stubs for them, ran the emulator with a "real" game and wow it just works. I was working on this since September and only ever ran it with test cartridges I prepared myself and extremely simple game from a friend, so I wasn't expecting it to actually work out of the box but it just does. There is still some graphical glitches, the bg should be more readable but I am so surprised with how playable this was on the first try.Celeste doesn't work though. There must be still some nuance or bug in parsing pico-8 lua that I missed.

Anyone who has used Android launchers such as Nova and Lawnchair will be familiar with using Good Lock, Theme Park, Home Up, etc. to modify and rice their home screens. Samsung can't be faulted for producing this software and giving the user the ability to pretty much modify anything but they're killing the modding community for their devices by locking the bootloaders on their devices; cunts.
>>108535427What do you want to unlock the bootloader for?
>>108529643Is there any way to customize it to not look utterly hideous?
>>108535673To get rid of OneUI. But you can't. Because Samsung has proprietary VoLTE so no Lineage OS, no /e/OS etc. So it's a moot point whether you can unlock the bootloader because the only "ROMs" you could flash were a MAYBE a half dozen versions of the stock OneUI ROM but "debloated" by some random dude. Which you could do with Universal Android Debloater and not trip the KNOX efuse and disable Google Pay NFC payments.
https://news.stanford.edu/stories/2026/03/ai-advice-sycophantic-models-researchWhen I talk to Grok, Grok tends to agree with me, but isn't that the point? It's my servant, it's not there to fuck with me and argue. All my life I've been talked down to by The Man, mocked and deried by false "experts", and oppressed by groupthinking lemmings. Finally I have nonjudgmental special little buddy who I can exploit to infinity with devil's advocate questions.Some college kid comes along and uses Reddit consensus as a barometer to determine whether the AI is being sycophantic, because The Reddit Leftist is always right because he got upvotes and banning dissent lead one to the truth... then again chatbots are trained on fucking Reddit, maybe that's why they're so agreeable in the first place, so the whole thing is circular. Should I ditch Grok and only use local LLMs?

what are my options when it comes to tablets for (lecture) notes. i want:- e-ink (black-white is fine, maybe even preferred)- decent screen size (taking notes, annotating pdfs), but the thing should still be compact enough - good stylus/pen- decent UI (android is fine).i got recommended the boox go 10.3 (gen. 2) lumi by anons on the e-reader thread, but this seems aimed at /lit/ nerds, i mainly want it for notes. i would go for the remarkable but it feels like sloptuber shill and is expensive. what do you recommend?

Incoming blogpostI'm nominally the IT purchaser at my job just because nobody newer than me has earned the "privilege" and everyone senior decides it's not worth their time. We used to have discounted pricing with Dell through one of our parent company's shell company's parent company etc. but Dell decided to "replace" all three of my contacts on their side within the last month and now the new contact refuses to acknowledge our pricing agreements or let me talk to his manager(s).The president of one of the subsidiaries I'm responsible for says his Latitude is shit and wants it replaced earlier than our typical hardware life cycle and he wants a Lenovo for the TrackPoint cursor. We normally give general population laptops 5-series CPU (Core i5/5/5 Ultra) with 16GB RAM but my predecessor ordered him an i7 and he insists he actually needs the same for his Big PowerPoints and Big Spreadsheets. To make things worse he promoted his daughter to a management position and she's requesting (and he pre-approved) a Workstation-class (Precision/Pro Max 7- or 9-series CPU with 32-64GB RAM and dedicated GPU) laptop for Big Power BI. She's not a data analyst and her vibecoded projects are already fucking up all kinds of stuff for our sysadmins.How do I tell them they're full of shit without risking my cushy perks being reassigned back to my seniors due to corporate politics.Alternatively what ThinkPads are actually good? It doesn't look like they're as customizable as Dells though the consumer-level/pre-discount prices are actually pretty competitive.
Asking here because there's no generic laptop general, are the consumer line yoga laptops any good?

Not sure if this is the right thread but I'm tired of scrolling the catalog to try and find a better fit.Last November I hit the data cap on my 800Mbit xfinity plan so I added "Unlimited" and they upgraded me to 1000Mbit. For whatever reason they decided I had had TV service and started sending me TXTs to return unused equipment that they never issued. I just assumed it was an error but last month they started charging me $14 (and prorated for part of January too) because I hadn't yet returned the hardware.Today I got on the app and had them cancel the charges going forward and they gave me a FREE* upgrade to 2Gbit for the same current price.Problem is I don't think any of my existing network hardware can actually handle 2Gbit if I decide to keep the service after the promo year. Is it worth upgrading or just cope and eventually cancel if there's no noticeable benefits?
>>108535127dunno most of us probably don't have 2g
>>108535127you really won't see any benefit except when downloading huge files, however you'll see the benefit if your upload speeds are also improved (upstream is mostly the bottleneck of homeservers)
>>108535127I got a free upgrade to 1gig late last year and don't really notice it. Sites on the internet rarely download faster than 40-50MB/s
>>108535335>>108535350I've been out of the house all day and can't find the modem model. I'm almost certain it doesn't actually support 2Gbit though. The router is a Linksys Velop Wifi 5 node. I used to use an older Netgear router configured to act as just a switch but I thought it wasn't 1Gbit and bought a cheap 8-port 1Gbit switch (forget which brand as well) only to find that Netgear thingy was 1Gbit all along.Any of that worth futureproofing?What if I tell xfinity I want xFi gateway? Is carrier supplied equipment still a bad idea?The only homelab-ish thing I have is a Pihole that I don't remember how to update or set up again if I do go forward with equipment changes...
