Boeing Will Launch Starliner With Helium Leak (www.extremetech.com)

Boeing and NASA are moving ahead with the upcoming Starliner demonstration launch despite an active helium leak. The launch is now on the books for Saturday, June 1, at 12:25 p.m. EDT. If all goes as planned, Starliner will rendezvous with the International Space Station the following day and return to Earth on June 10. If not,...

I hate that the joke hits, just as the shit does the fan at Boeing.

Yeah that one works.

And there's so much more you could criticize anyway:

Edge? No thx, if I want it I will install it myself.

TPM? Wtf bro, take it out.

I already got upgraded. Notice the passive voice. That shit should be illegal.

Yeah that and my PC randomly decides to crash and restart now without blue screen.

Considering how many other messengers died before ICQ I would say Russian VK kept it alive...

RISC and CISC are two language which your CPU speaks, and which have different strengths and weaknesses. Reduced Instruction Set Computer vs. Complex Instruction Set Computer. It's something like Chinese vs. English. Either have a word for everything but that means there is a lot of words to learn, or have a smaller amount of words but that means you need more words to describe what you mean.

Highly technical; both been around for a while, and iirc usually CPUs use CISC, but RISC always retained it's strengths, so scientists are always looking into the difference in application for both.

Ngl I have no clue why this technology is so newsworthy rn but I know Western countries made a fuss about China activitely pushing the lesser used RISC architecture.

My morality says both are accountable. The driver, and Tesla. Tesla for damage caused by their system, and the driver for and if he does not retake control of the vehicle given the chance.

You made me think about this for a second.

In my head, the reason is not specifically to punish the driver, but to make drivers always be aware and ready to take control again. Yes 100 ppl will have 1000 different ways to react to such a software error, but you need ppl to pay attention, and in law the only way is to use punishment. Obviously this needs to be well calculated but either you have multiple lines of defense (the software, the driver, maybe even additional safety features) or you have to remove the autonomous system.

Nurses Protest 'Deeply Troubling' Use of AI in Hospitals (www.404media.co)

“Life-and-death decisions relating to patient acuity, treatment decisions, and staffing levels cannot be made without the assessment skills and critical thinking of registered nurses,” the union wrote in the post. “For example, tell-tale signs of a patient’s condition, such as the smell of a patient’s breath and their...

Isn't there a way to do both for every patient as an additional information layer?

The dangerous part is not the AI, but the idea that AI can REPLACE everything. And that's usually on the management.

Right, so with all me very specific troubleshooting questions I should go where exactly?

Ecosia? Very limited search results

Yandex? More obscure results, probably not what I'm looking for

Bing? Ok on general stuff, not great on very specific questions

Yahoo? Never tried it, heard the enshittification has become bad

Duckduckgo and similar? Proxying Google

Edit: apparently it's proxying Bing and not Google. Idk if that's better but I got that wrong.

There is no way to get around Google. Everything else is either highly specialized, very limited or unusable in general.

Also feel free to chime in with your experience, I'm so down to hear what everyone has to say.

Peak troll behavior.

Can't even find the argument between your insults, this comment is hilarious, but not in the good way.

And if you wanna have an answer that's actually informative: it doesn't matter which company, which country or where, but having content based information as well as metadata can lead to so much power, and there's a good argument to be made that no one deserves blackmail levels of power over your life, especially a random cooperation that's beholden to no one except it's own rules.

And before you go on a tirade again: no, this has absolutely nothing to do with country or anything, this is an ethical dilemma which can be extended to any country.

We call this vertical integration. Basically looking at any process you can make a table of different services for the process on the y axis and different providers of those services on the x axis.

The more width you get, the better. It means high competition, and that's healthy for a market now if it looks like a needle vertically, you got a problem. This is when we move closer to Monopoly, where a process can only be down by one chain of services. No competition. This means, that one provider can do what he wants, as people are bound to this provider and have to make do. Cue price increases.

Vertical integration means making your services interoperable to a degree where other providers can't keep up. If there's no other providers, there's no competition. Now you got a monopoly. That is what vertical integration is in it's final form.

Unlike block chain, there is a solid chunk of new use cases to be conquered with AI. These might be very technical in nature, but for example, text suggestions on smartphones might already be done with AI, depending on your OS.

Ppl tend to sugarcoat Linux to new users, so let me make a reality check: gaming is possible on Linux, but in a limited sense, and it might cost time and sanity.

Some games work natively, some need a workaround, some require you to craft your own solution, and some straight up won't.

The percentages shift, where there's slightly more games working natively or requiring a basic workaround, but the baseline is the same.

But it doesn't.

If you don't have a deal with the carrier, don't automatically connect to it. That is so dumb, (and it also smells illegal to some degree) cause in some cases it can happen on accident, and paying for things you specifically don't want is a really shakey basis in law.
