IvanOverdrive , to Technology in Windows 11 is now automatically enabling OneDrive folder backup without asking permission

Not a whole lot.

IvanOverdrive , to Technology in Windows 11 is now automatically enabling OneDrive folder backup without asking permission

So, yeah. What's a good Linux distro for stable diffusion and programming?

IvanOverdrive , to Selfhosted in How do you handle family requests that you disagree with?

Use your words. Tell her you don't want to and why.

IvanOverdrive , to Technology in Japanese police create fake support scam payment cards to warn victims

And my guess would be a fraction of those warned would phone the scammers back to find another way to pay them. Some folks can't bear to know they've been tricked.

IvanOverdrive , to Technology in ByteDance prefers TikTok shutdown in US if legal options fail, sources say

This just confirms the worst case scenario for me. This might be posturing, but it's far more likely ByteDance can't reveal how much command the CCP has over the data.

IvanOverdrive , to 196 in you know what

I guess this has something to do with Minecraft.

IvanOverdrive , to Memes in Peeps nature's most delectable bird

You're right. Guess I've got Covid on the brain.

IvanOverdrive , to Memes in Peeps nature's most delectable bird

Fun fact: Orson Well's last role was Omicron, the planet sized transformer in Transformers the Movie. Since he was a method actor, he ate so many peeps he became the size of a planet.

IvanOverdrive , to 196 in irrulevant

It's an unpaired word. The same reason why we never describe someone as "hinged".

IvanOverdrive , (edited ) to Technology in Threads is automatically hiding comments that mention Pixelfed

lemm.ee is already defederated. Didn't even have to do anything. I think I chose the right instance.

Edit: defederated not federated

IvanOverdrive , to Technology in In Cringe Video, OpenAI CTO Says She Doesn’t Know Where Sora’s Training Data Came From

REPORTER: Where does your data come from?

CTO: Bitch, are you trying to get me sued?

IvanOverdrive , to Technology in Boeing: Last Week Tonight

Number go up mean safe go down.

IvanOverdrive , to Technology in Claude 3 launched by Anthropic — new AI model leaves OpenAI's GPT-4 in the dust

I found that it helps if you ask chatGPT 4 to act as a Vulcan from Star Trek, it does better with logic puzzles. But it doesn't work with 3.5.

IvanOverdrive , to Technology in Claude 3 launched by Anthropic — new AI model leaves OpenAI's GPT-4 in the dust

It does amazingly well with schemas:

When the dead rabbit was seen by the dog, it hopped. What does "it" refer to: the rabbit or the dog?

In the sentence "When the dead rabbit was seen by the dog, it hopped," the pronoun "it" refers to the dog, not the rabbit.

This is because the rabbit is described as "dead," meaning it cannot hop or move. The verb "hopped" implies movement, which can only logically apply to the living subject in the sentence, which is the dog.

So the intended meaning is that when the dog saw the dead rabbit, the dog itself hopped, likely in surprise or reaction to seeing the dead animal.

When the iceberg was struck by the ship, it sunk. What does "it" refer to: the iceberg or the ship?

In the sentence "When the iceberg was struck by the ship, it sunk," the pronoun "it" refers to the ship, not the iceberg.

The reason is that icebergs, being large masses of ice floating in water, do not actually "sink" when struck. They are already floating and may crack or break apart when struck, but the word "sunk" implies something going down below the water's surface.

Ships, on the other hand, are vessels designed to float on water. If a ship strikes an iceberg with enough force, it can cause damage that leads to the ship taking on water and eventually sinking below the surface.

So in this context, with the verb "sunk" being used, it is more logical that "it" is referring to the ship sinking after striking the iceberg, rather than describing what happened to the stationary iceberg itself.
