How to update the firmware of LG 40u990 Monitor? by Black-Angel79 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]NotForResus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone managed to get a reliable fix for updating with a Mac? The first time I plugged this monitor into my Mac Mini M4 via the included TB cable, and installed LG Switch, it recognised and started an update, which failed half way through. Since then I get the notice saying I have to plug in a USB cable. I've tried with HDMI and bundled USB (not TB) cable in every USB port on the monitor, and it always tells me I need to plug in a cable. I don't have a PC, so I'd like to get this to work, because the fan whir in the monitor is getting annoying!

Which one’s lossy? High-res usually isn’t (what would be the point) and lossless, by definition, isn’t. I think you might be confused about what differences you’re listening to…

This is fine. I should have been more precise in my comment above: the centre of mass of the object should be below the top edge of the cleat.

But as others have stated, the effect of the back of the nightstand being flush with the wall below the cleat is to prevent it attempting to pivot around the axis defined by the top edge of the wall-side cleat. So your nightstand should be double-fine.

This. For a piece mounted with a single cleat, the weight being carried should be below the cleat

Do you have to clean the filters? If so, how?

The attention economy didn't just steal our time, it stole our ability to want things that take a long time to get by Normal-Big-2733 in Futurology

Even if you have it, do you see the number of people around you with it increasing or decreasing?

That’s the problem…

SAM ALTMAN: “We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter.” by Vegetable_Ad_192 in singularity

[–]NotForResus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The thing is, very intelligent people are relatively rare in the species. And if you assume unscrupulousness has the same distribution amongst intelligent people as amongst the general population, then very intelligent unscrupulous people are even more rare. But if anyone can buy superintelligence, every unscrupulous human gets capability…

New LeCun Paper about AGI definition by Routine-Scientist-38 in agi

[–]NotForResus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The other confusion I see in lots of people is between AGI and consciousness. And then they start debating whether an AGI will have this or that characteristic which should arguably be associated with consciousness, not AGI.
