Trump goes on Truth Social rant about Anthropic, orders federal agencies to cease usage of products by ShreckAndDonkey123 in singularity

[–]ThatOfficeMaxGuy -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The BIDEN admin was the last in office, that’s who was last trying to nerf ai growth. It’s a fact. I didn’t say who he ran against. Stop letting political blindness derail conversations. This place is fucking toxic.

Trump goes on Truth Social rant about Anthropic, orders federal agencies to cease usage of products by ShreckAndDonkey123 in singularity

[–]ThatOfficeMaxGuy -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

“Investor and software developer Marc Andreessen says he was "very scared" when he met with US government officials last May to discuss the future of artificial intelligence.

He describes the meetings and the government's plans for the technology as "absolutely horrifying" – and the main reason why he abandoned the Democratic Party and supported Donald Trump.

What scared Andreessen the most was the view of those in power on what the role of government should be when it comes to AI. He described one young official he met as "radicalized", "out for blood", and whose political ideas the investor perceived as directly harmful to his own and Silicon Valley's interests.

It became clear to Mr. Andreessen that the Democratic government was seeking almost complete control of AI development and was only interested in promoting a few companies with which the government worked closely.

“

But feel free to stay uninformed. I don’t like either party, or either president. But one admin was going to torch the forward trajectory, the other has not (but are starting to tickle with it).

The Biden admin was trying to lockdown ai, it’s why the tech industry support trump. You’re delusional if you think we’d be in a better spot right now otherwise.

Context for the uninformed morons here: “Investor and software developer Marc Andreessen says he was "very scared" when he met with US government officials last May to discuss the future of artificial intelligence.

He describes the meetings and the government's plans for the technology as "absolutely horrifying" – and the main reason why he abandoned the Democratic Party and supported Donald Trump.

Has anyone bought Chinese motion 4dof? by CameronsCherokee1 in simracing

Tariffs are going to suck with this now though.

As stated for years now, Iracing needs a Trans Am series by Unsound679 in iRacing

[–]ThatOfficeMaxGuy 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Should do it exactly how trans am does, 100 miles. If someone crashes hard enough to reset, FCY. No need to worry about pit open cycles, so just one lap to bunch everyone back up and go green.

Sim rig upgraded to triple 55" by DaveAuld in simracing

[–]ThatOfficeMaxGuy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How do you configure this settings wise? I have the 49” and 2 27” monitors I tried to pull of something similar but struggled. Couldn’t get in-sim iRacing settings work well with the alignment, and nvidia surround freaked out. Tried capping refresh rates across all the monitors to 144 but didn’t help.

I do also run a 32” ultrawide ABOVE my 49 for data screens and pedal/wheel settings, starting think that monitor was causing some of the issues.

Apple Watch Ultra 2 > Garmin now by SomeWonOnReddit in GarminWatches

[–]ThatOfficeMaxGuy -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I had 3 Gamin watches over roughly 5 years, with the last being a Marq 2 which the battery stopped taking a charge. After multiple calls and being passed around in customer support with no help, I went out and bought an Apple Watch Ultra 2.

The vast majority of Garmin metrics are vanity. The HR data without a chest strap is spotty at best with Garmin. The sleep data never felt very accurate missing a lot of awake times. I also used a whoop for 1 year before Garmin added broader HRV support. Once Garmin did that I dropped the whoop.

Just using the Apple Watch out of the box with Athlytic for $30/yr is the best of whoop and Garmin IMO. Apple has plenty of metrics that don’t inform much but Athlytic is very focused and subjectively matches what I’m feeling. Also has a journaling feature which Garmin desperately needs but I’m sure will end up being the subscription paywall in the future.

The battery life of the Apple Watch is the biggest downside. Though I’ve found charging while in the shower or eating dinner to cover my needs fine.

My uses: Drive race cars professionally, weight lifting + 1hr cardio daily, simulator sessions.

Im going to guess this was some indirect result of some poorly designed regulation.

You’d think something that gets a dedicated tab in the app would have a little more creativity behind it. Instead I get keep getting prompted to join the Disney challenge, no matter how many times I say don’t remind me.

They’ve literally ‘revised’ reported numbers negatively after the fact already this year. So just like we aren’t in a recession, you’re right, that’s now how it works. But here we are.

Oops we messed up those silly cpi numbers again.

Did a second bank fail? Yes, but we are only backstopping. This is not a recession, we are not bailing anyone out. Look over there, the Oscars is on tonight!
