What tech do you use for downloading Facebook reels and shorts? Do they work the same or do they need different things for download. Is there one downloader you prefer over others or they aren't really that different.

Have you guys noticed, that from time to time, AI LLM chats will leak their inner "thoughts/guardrails"?Lol.Pay attention. Take screenshots. Take notes. Don't refresh the page during glitches
>>108419511I don't typically talk to a chatbot long enough for it to start shitting itself
>>108420417Offline models dont have enough gpu to answer anything. We need a "mullvad" style AI leasing service where we can lease GPU clusters using Monero for uncensored models

>>108419511recently i have had it tell me about ENTITIES and about putting Entities in "commas" in its description. i asked it what it was on about and it said it was just information for itself and wasn't aprt of the answer, but it was part of the response it printed on screen. entities being names of organisations and brands etc which exist in reality. it seemed it was considering whether to reference by name the things i asked about or whether to reference them indirectly.
I don't care enough about AI chatbots to ask any serious questions. I just use them as tools to get what I want quickly. I'm not gonna ask about certain topics because to me something like Claude seems to always give me what I want to hear, and I don't want that. Today I watched this in full:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h3AtWdeu_G0I am certainly no fan of his, and this is just some advertising. But it highlights the problem I have with these chatbots.

Why doesn't this get the same amount of attention like other distros?
>>108420743Why did you make a spreadsheet anon
>>108420905autismbut originally I wanted to find out if Mageia or OpenMandriva was more popular (both claim to be the true heir to Mandriva). Turns out it is Mageia even though both are rarely mentioned in install guides or packaged for
>>108420106Because somehow Germ*ns have talent to force themselves into position of importance despite being universally incompetent fools.
>>108420743Distros are supported when they're used by corporations, not with regular users. What's actually supported is SLE, OpenSUSE just benefits from it because they've got a lot in common. Same with Fedora (Redhat) and Ubuntu (LTS with enterprise support).

Is it really over for Windows 98 on the internet?>No modern TLS or a variety of other protocols and drivers>Browsers can only run the internet equivalent of "heritage railways" with the small subset of websites still working on Windows 98>Over 20 years of unfixed CVEs (Microsoft dropped support in 2006)>Google stopped working in late 2025, one of the last major sites to still support it.>Frogfind exists, but is mostly text only and only works on some websites.Despite depictions of Windows 98 on the internet being popular in art, the reality is that even enthusiasts struggle to do anything useful with it now online. Supermium only goes back to Windows 2000, and Windows 98 is just missing too many APIs to port back that far and extended kernel projects have failed to get any sort of Chromium working. Soon even Windows XP will fall off the internet as Chromium gets too complex to port back as Supermium, which will certainly happen when 32-bit support gets dropped upstream. Eventually the whole "Pre-TPM" era of computers will struggle past 2032 after LTSC ends.
Why would you want it on the Internet? Host an archive mirror/proxy and an FTP server or something.>Supermium only goes back to Windows 2000, and Windows 98 is just missing too many APIsThat's because 2000 is a part of the NT branch that survives to this day as Windows 11, whereas 98 is part of an extinct 9x branch that ended with Windows Me.
>>108419620>Google stopped working in late 2025, one of the last major sites to still support it.google gave me a weird one recently when i had my user agent set to something weird from testing something. previously it used to generate an html only page but this time i got a page complaining that i needed javascript so i could use ai so just install chrome pretty pleaseit shocked me to consider the implications on old browsersbut yeah in the future we're going to have to have some "modern tech" air-gapped in the corner for when we have to use somebody's website. europeans are basically already required by their government to have a smartphone if they want banking services, so they get to play the same game if they'd rather not have a smartphone. i hate this world.
JS faggotry might be a problem but you can overcome the SSL thing by using proxy software that converts HTTPS traffic to HTTP for your W98 and vice versa.
>>108419620Just install pegasus mail on W98 and use an email proxy to browse the modern web: you email the link/click/interaction to the proxy and it emails the response back to you>That's fucking crazyyes

Windows fag here.I wanna switch to Linux. Which distro do you recommend? I'd like to play some steam games still, use browsers, other apps and also work with OpenClaw and AI.Thanks!
>>108414792Any arch based distro will do, the AUR is the sole reason for using it. Garuda, CachyOS, Manjaro.
>>108420633>Garuda
>>108414792Don't listen to anybody recommending you some niche shit distro that is more of a hobby than a tool.I am on ubuntu but might go mint or pop OS instead if I would choose again.Arch is similar to steam OS so that might be something to consider, I think it is more annoying than the casual choices.I don't like KDE though, reminds me of windows.
>>108414792I use Arch+KDE. I found the switch to be pretty easy.
Guix and Gentoo are solid choices. Other than that Artix and maybe Void :)Hope this aids you in your selection
why is it so desperate for access to my personal files?
>>108417079because Windows is Government spyware and you need to be pidgeonholed
government contracts. it's just easier for law enforcement, ok?
>>108417079Think back to a time without cloud. How many times did you hear of people losing data and work because of some crash, bug or user error? You still hear it all the time btw, with people literally not understanding that word docs are not stored inside the word app. Microsoft main usergroups are workplaces with hordes of people too dumb to shit. Enter the auto storing in the cloud. Everything just werks for the Stacies of HR. That and dependency cultivation.
>>108418580>backing upYou would like that. It soemtimes will MOVE files to onedrive. Yes it will copy data to onedrive and delete it from your local storage.
It's crazy how just clicking Next during setup will result in Onedrive putting your entire My Documents folder in the cloud.Local account is really the way to go.
>entire fucking book just to say that programs are like mathematical functions Really? That's it? That's the great esoteric knowledge everyone keeps harping about?

Its not complicated. Programming is just election traffic control. That's it. Controlling 1's and 0's. Open gate, close gat, open gate, close gate.

How much are (you) spending on AI tokens?
>ITT: illiterate retardsEngineers are GIVEN half of their salary in tokens by NVIDIA to use however they see fit in their work.
I bought RTX 5090 and run shit locally, it paid itself back in 4 months with how much I spent on tokens
Imagine needing AI and, God forbid, paying for it
>>108414150The sheer desperation
>>108420720right!

>>108420593
>>108418836True, though that encourages devs to abuse throwaway regexes in situations where other approaches would be clearer or more robust.
