Honest question - is it mainly the religious ones falling for this? Or just a bias in my observation.

- Comment on Chinese memory ban would cut off RAMpocalypse relief 2 weeks ago:
It’s still increasing the supply no matter what, doesn’t matter who’s buying from where. The Chinese datacenters don’t exist in a vacuum right now, they’re depleting the supply for the rest of us.

Would be nice if post titles could be less US-centric?
- Comment on Is Denuvo's Dominance Finally Beginning to Crack? A New Linux-Based Breakthrough Suggests It Might Be 2 weeks ago:
Hi!
I’d love to know more about the chat with Empress 😂
Sorry, when I said universally cracked I meant they had figured out a general viable method, not that all denuvo games were cracked.
I’m mostly just wondering what you meant by a Linux-based breakthrough? Since it seems you’re talking about the hypervisor method which originated on windows. That’s the part that’s really unclear in your article, some elaboration would be nice.
- Comment on Is Denuvo's Dominance Finally Beginning to Crack? A New Linux-Based Breakthrough Suggests It Might Be 2 weeks ago:
In recent years, successful bypasses have become so rare that many viewed Denuvo as effectively unbeatable.
Denuvo has been almost universally cracked since the start of this year, author sounds pretty out of date to be talking as if this is a recent development.
It would be nice if they talked more about this mysterious ‘Linux-based breakthrough’. Given that the hypervisor crack is so widely effective and platform independent, what is the breakthrough they’re talking about that’s beating it? This is the first I’m hearing of it, and I’m not convinced they haven’t gotten it mixed up with hypervisor.

Oh god, the number of hours I spent on EV. Definitely getting this.

TLDR it was aimed at detecting / blocking competing AI companies trying to copy their model. Ironic given the provenance of most training data, but not entirely malware per se.
- Comment on SpaceX vaporizes 260 Starlink satellites in six months using Earth's atmosphere 3 weeks ago:
As I said, only the energy of the satellite, not the entire rocket, which is a miniscule fraction of the energy the launch used.
Also pointing out that it really doesn’t matter, in terms of energy, potential or otherwise. It’s only the byproducts that can have any major impact.
- Comment on SpaceX vaporizes 260 Starlink satellites in six months using Earth's atmosphere 3 weeks ago:
You’re not crashing the entire rocket, just a tiny bit of it. Also, generating direct energy has never been a climate change issue, it’s the byproducts of that generating that are fucking us up.

1 game into 3 wasn’t enough, they had to slap dlc onto it as well before it even completes?

I’m willing to support a game that literally set the bar for quality of software development. Their dev logs alone were worth the price.

- Comment on Steam Machine 8 months ago:
I main Linux. I’ve been using it for over 2 decades. I’m speaking from personal experience when I say that if you think Linux was mainstream ready prior to the last few years, you have no idea what the average pc user is incapable of.
- Comment on Steam Machine 8 months ago:
Most people don’t really use windowns because they like it but because of the third parties applications that only run on windows
Most techies, maybe. MAYBE. Linux has not been anywhere near user friendly enough over the past 2 decades to be remotely usable by normal people. Not a chance.
- Comment on Steam Machine 8 months ago:
fueled the windows ecosystem for two decades.
That’s nonsense, as if Windows needed any help being dominant in its heyday
- Comment on Steam Machine 8 months ago:
And yet, with Proton they’re one of the biggest contributors to Linux adoption in the past several years. They’re allowing millions of users to cut the last string that was binding them to Windows
- Comment on Steam Machine 8 months ago:
Given that they’d have locked in the supply at least half a year ago, though, it would be funny (though unrealistic) to find out they contributed to the price hike 😂

“If the big tech companies and the VCs throwing their money at large-scale humanoid training spent only 20% as much but gave it all to university researchers I tend to think they would get closer to their goals more quickly,” Brooks said.
To be clear, he’s not saying the goal is unachievable. He’s just saying they’re going at it in the dumbest way possible.

WE don’t know what info and otherwise was shared, because it’s an ongoing investigation and they’d be idiots to be telling the public everything. That doesn’t make it a ‘rumour’. There’s enough to it that the govt is investigating, which is by definition more than a rumour.

True, it was japan not China. Doesn’t make him racist though, just mistaken.

What rumours? They know for a fact the information sharing happened, they just don’t get know what the fallout from it will be

Chinese here. He’s not wrong. Should we just pretend it didn’t happen?

This isn’t China though, it’s a Japan-based startup. At least according to the article
