Took me a minute, but it actually isn’t that bad. The size of the last two sections represent the additional % on top of the previous…

Having said that, there must’ve been a better, less confusing way to represent this data

Damn, you definitely didn’t catch their pretty side

I’m a bit late to the party, but I would be inclined to agree with the majority here. Your choice to have their cookies deleted on browser close is adding more friction to an already quite high friction process - you managed to get them to switch over, you don’t want to undo all that over cookies of all things.

You have to remember, it is their machine at the end of the day, and while you might be able to put up with having to redo 2FA loads due to cookie deletion, they’re clearly not… And if that’s going to be the dealbreaker, you’re far better off forgetting cookie deletion for now and focusing on more passive privacy options like blocking 3rd party cookies, trackers, and ADs.

I was genuinely confused by this statistic until I realised it was a double negative. YouTube losen’t Google a lot of money.

We’re always told the people at the bottom rung of society, the people doing “entry level” jobs just need to work harder and harder to earn a proper living…

But how does that work really? Unlike a lot of high level jobs, none of these jobs just exist for the sake of existing, most of these “entry level” jobs are essential to society (we saw that much during the pandemic).

Somebody has to do them or society just doesn’t work, so don’t the people doing these literally essential jobs deserve to be paid a fair living wage? They’re working just as hard as the people above them, yet they’re paid peanuts in comparison

…

That’s the hill Pope Francis is willing to die on? - that Gender ideology is the ugliest danger today?
Not Russia’s endless onslaught against the Ukrainian people or Israel’s genocide against the Palestinian people?
Pope Francis needs to get outside more often.

Dude - you’re either stupid enough to not realise the irony of what you’ve just said, or you’re trolling. For your sake, I kinda hope it’s the latter

Sometimes sure, but an LLM realistically has no decision making ability - it isn’t considering strategies or ethics, or anything else for that matter, it’s just pulling together an answer based on what people have said in similar contexts in it’s training data.

I wouldn’t want a parrot to decide who 's shooting who, nevermind nukes - though to be fair no one person or thing should be deciding either of those things anyway

I don’t mind having my own arguments thrown back in my face, but I do disagree with the premise that humans are anything like LLMs.

We have more than just a catalogue of conversational training data. We are hugely influenced by our current emotions, experiences, and traumas/fears.

I do agree with the idea that we shouldn’t give too much power to one person, but I’d argue it’s due to a lack of objectivity and a tendency towards selfish actions, rather than acting like an LLM.

Ultroning the world to achieve world peace isn’t exactly the best outcome, especially for innocent folks caught in the crossfire

Why the actual fuck is anyone considering putting LLMs into the driving seat of anything?!

Of course they make fucked up decisions with no proper or justifiable rationale, because they have no brains. They’re language models, stochastic parrots stringing together sentences to fit the prompt(s) given to them.

Exactly, who do they think holds up all their gambles.
They keep the working class fighting each other, because if they ever stopped, this wouldn’t work anymore

Yeah - that was my worry.

Unification of standards only works if everyone agrees to use it and only it (i.e. mobile phones and USB C), otherwise you’re just adding another one to the pile.

As long as there us incentive to do so, malicious actors will exploit the source code whether it is open or closed…

Making something open source does make it easier for malicious actors, but it also allows honest actors to find and fix exploits before they can be used - something they won’t/can’t do for closed source, meaning you have to rely on in-house devs to review/find/fix everything.

No, my point is that they’re lost causes and they’re untrainable.

Ah… I still don’t get how that’s meant to refute the previous person’s point that elitism and the “git gud” attitude around Linux contributes to it’s inability to become mainstream.

If anything your reply only reinforces their point, because you seem to be suggesting we throw anybody who struggles to learn it to the curb.

Is your point meant to be that these people who already have trouble learning GUIs would somehow have an easier time intuiting command line?

If that’s correct, that’s an absolutely BS argument

Yeah, if VLC can’t do it, I’d bet my money nothing can

I’m not a Linux fan boy by any means, but you’ve at least got to give it a fair deal…

Saying Linux sucks because of Google’s Android is the equivalent of saying you hate all vegetables because Brussel Sprouts suck.

I think that’s a per installation thing, cause mine has always had issues with sleep mode - ironically no problem with hibernation though haha
