Oh it's definitely extra stupid. Looks like the slide was made whole-cloth by an image generator, not like the text was generated by an LLM and pasted in.
Image generators make typos all the time (if you can call them that).

It depends on what you want. I use Kagi but I have not sold it on my friends and family because for most of them, it doesn't really make sense.
I've found it to be the best search engine, but I also think DuckDuckGo is generally fine. The $5/month plan with 300 searches per month is too limiting, IMO. I feel like anyone who searches that lightly will struggle to justify paying for Kagi over using DDG. For unlimited searches you need to step up to the $10/month plan.
When I started using Kagi, I did the free trial and every time I did a search, I'd do it in both Kagi and Google or DDG. It quickly became clear to me that Kagi was better, but I suspect this will vary a lot by your field, your tastes, and your personal search style. I mean, maybe there's someone out there who actually wants to look at Pinterest results. I guess?!
If you ever considered paying for ChatGPT Pro or Claude Pro ($20/month), then Kagi's Ultimate plan ($25/month) is probably a better value. It includes unlimited search, plus access to all the major premium models. On the other hand, ChatGPT Pro gives you access to image generation too, if you care about that.
Kagi's research agent is legitimately great. It is nothing like the bullshit generator Google has. It will take a prompt, then run multiple web searches to get relevant info, recursively if needed, and then give a meaningful response with citations. It shows you the exact search queries it uses, along with the results it pulls from. I've used it to find accurate answers to problems that I realistically could not have found with traditional search engines; in one case the actual answer was something like 18 results deep in the 5th search it performed. I think most people would give up before digging that deep in search results.
This is what AI is good for: automating gruntwork. Not doing things I couldn't do myself, but doing things I don't fucking want to do myself because they are tedious and frustrating. 99% of AI applications are pure garbage. Kagi's is part of the other 1%.
Almost has to be. 2400W would put it completely outside the consumer market. Consumer PSUs don't go that high. Home power outlets don't go that high unless you have special electrical work done. I can hardly imagine what a cooling system for a nearly 3KW system would look like.
This is network-specific. It's been going on for a few months at least. yt-dlp itself still works without sign-in, if your network is not "suspicious".
Always worth making sure you're updated to the latest version of yt-dlp, but this is probably a network thing.
Are you sure about that? The star over each icon indicates that both of them are bookmarked.
So either this is a bug or there is a second bookmark hiding somewhere. If you go to Bookmarks > Manage Bookmarks and search for "qb", what appears there?
he viewed other libertarians as having the same level of honest compassion as he does but over time it’s become more and more clear that libertarians are overwhelmingly selfish rich white guys who don’t want to be called Repuiblicans
I had a similar progression myself when I was in my teens, maybe even early 20s.
The basic principle of libertarianism is appealing: mind your own damn business and I'll mind mine. And I still agree with that in general — it's just that a single generality does not make a complete worldview. It took me a while to realize how common it is for self-identifying libertarians to lack any capacity for nuance. The natural extreme of "libertarianism" is just anarchy and feudalism.
In a sane world, I might still call myself a libertarian. In a sane world, that might mean letting people live their own damn lives, not throwing them to the wolves (or more literally, bears ) and dismantling the government entirely.
I'm all for minding my own business, but I also acknowledge that maintaining a functional society is everybody's business (as much as I occasionally wish I could opt out and go live in a cave).
Defaults matter. Every time you open a private browsing window, that's what you're going to get. Every time you use LibreWolf or Firefox Focus or any other browser that disables/clears cookies by default (which is a good practice), that's what you're going to get.
I don't want anything I search for going into OpenAI. Ever. I'd feel fine about this if they hosted their own models.
Racism in America is real. Anyone telling you otherwise is probably just living a charmed life and incapable of accepting that their personal experience is not universal.
I don't have the time or energy to prove this exhaustively, but here's a starting point: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Driving_while_black
In 2019, as reported by NBC, the Stanford Open Policing Project found that "police stopped and searched black and Latino drivers on the basis of less evidence than used in stopping white drivers, who are searched less often but are more likely to be found with illegal items."
Please refer to the citations on that page for more details. Lots of studies in various states showing the same thing. The fact that the mere existence of racial profiling in America is still debated, when it has been consistently proven again and again for decades, is itself a clear indicator of a different kind of racism.
Here's a little story that stuck in my memory, about how a white woman finally came to realize that racial harassment by police was a real thing. It's kind of hilarious, in a dark, face-palmy kind of way. https://franklywrite.com/2020/06/01/a-white-woman-racism-and-a-poodle/
That's when Windows 10 stops getting security updates. Expect most software vendors to drop support for Windows 10 this year if they haven't already. That doesn't necessarily mean things will stop working, but it will not be tested and they won't spend time fixing Win10-specific problems.
In enterprise, you can get an additional three years of "extended security updates". That's your grace period to get everyone in your org upgraded.
While I strongly relate to anyone who hates Windows 11, "continue using Windows 10 forever" was never a viable long-term strategy.
Windows 10 was released in 2015. Ten years of support for an OS is industry-leading, on par with Red Hat or Ubuntu's enterprise offerings and far ahead of any competing consumer OS. Apple generally only offers three years of security updates. Google provides 3-4 years of security updates. Debian gets 5 years.
There has never been a time in the history of personal computing when using an OS for over 10 years without a major upgrade was realistic. That would be like using Windows 3.1 after XP was released. Windows 10 is dead, and it's been a long time coming.
Now go download Fedora.
I try not to judge people....unless I see them right-clicking to copy and paste. Ew.
Who do we arrest if a crime is organized via phone call on T-Mobile’s network
I guarantee you, T-Mobile does not hesitate to hand over any and all data they have to the government. And they don't encrypt shit, as evidenced by their many many data breaches.
or via mail?
The postal service is from a different era, and has legal protections I wish online equivalents had. Logically they should. Realistically they probably never will.
The coolest, and often most confusing thing about computer science, information theory, and perhaps reality in general, is how everything becomes more or less equivalent if you boil it down and twist it around a little.
Everything is sorting. Everything is compression. Everything is geometry. Everything is language. Everything is music. Everything is, like, waves, man. *puff*
Or more accurately, everything can be expressed in any of those other things' terms.
These are not new ideas, but computers have made them provably and demonstrably true in many contexts, and I think that's super cool.
