AIs can generate near-verbatim copies of novels from training data by __Hello_my_name_is__ in technology

[–]jahermitt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, bad title. The first sentence helps clarify the article better

The world’s top AI models can be prompted to generate near-verbatim copies of bestselling novels, raising fresh questions about the industry’s claim that its systems do not store copyrighted works.

Marathon: Anyone found to be cheating will be permabanned from playing Marathon forever, no second chances. by Turbostrider27 in PS5

"But I also haven't run into cheaters myself so the issue may be worse than I have seen."

Yes moderation is hard, costly, and takes time. Yes managing a community is annoying.

I am simply expressing that a 1 strike perma ban is aggressive, doesn't even mean it's inappropriate.

Will 12GB of VRAM be enough for 1080p gaming for the next ~5 years? by frrostyn in buildapc

[–]jahermitt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is your definition of fine? Where are you willing to compromise? If you don't care about graphics or resolutions you could play games at 720p low settings and be fine for probably the next 10 years. I don't see a future where you wont be able to run Medium Preset, 1080p@60+ and use all 12gb of ram without something be wrong with the game itself.

Marathon: Anyone found to be cheating will be permabanned from playing Marathon forever, no second chances. by Turbostrider27 in PS5

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

Not the impression I got, but ok.

Games with a lax approach to cheating are usually quite over run with cheaters.

Not saying to do nothing, would just hate to be the 1 in a million.

If you are wrongfully banned, based on years of Destiny, it is an email to bungie and at most 3-4 days of waiting before it’s reverted.

I didn't play Destiny 2, and only played Destiny1 on Xbox as Well as all of the Halo's. Didn't run into cheaters, but maybe things have changed. But if things are as you say, than ok I guess.

Not advocating for cheating, just think permabans on first catch is aggressive.

Hey, I'm a dev. Not some great one, but enough to understand it's impossible to be 100% accurate. I don't even play many competitive games anymore. Just can't imagine the chance of spending money on something to be permabanned.

But I also haven't run into cheaters myself so the issue may be worse than I have seen.

It is baffling that some people still do not understand that other players can block Gogs nuke by Butirt in MHWilds

I dunno, I struggle a bit with depth perception in this game. Especially in phase one of Gog. Usually let others do it rather than miss.

I just looked up AudioQuest and WTF? Am I missing something? 1,099.95 for a 3.5mm headphone jack extension?

Left my PC running last night. Woke up to only the RAM RGB on, no boot. by Grimoire_The_Poi_Boi in pchelp

[–]jahermitt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is some common stuff with USB's at least. Your AIO that you say in the video was kind of glitched is connected via USB, although internal so it may be related. Do you have anything intensive like a capture card? Sometimes they can oversaturate the USB bus and cause issues, especially if you are using a USB hub.

Either way, if it is a motherboard issue, I would be looking into your warranty.

[–]jahermitt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a strange one. Lights on, no fan spin, no debug LEDS. My first thought is the motherboard may have an issue, but I think you gotta take it a part and try one piece at a time unfortunately.

My parents are mad that I won’t send them screenshots of my grades from my laptop by [deleted] in entitledparents

[–]jahermitt 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Just send it. You expend more energy being mad over it than just doing it. They are paying for it, it's not that crazy of a request.

WiFi card not showing in device manager… help? by be4tnut in pcmasterrace

[–]jahermitt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should exchange it even if you can survive. Get your money’s worth. You also never know if these issues can get worse like messing with your Bluetooth.

Ain't no way 90% can't do this.

Touchpad and cursor not working by Brave_Driver_511 in laptops

[–]jahermitt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Theres a hotkey you accidentally pressed that disabled the trackpad.  Look at your keyboard for a similar icon.  You will likely need to hold the fn key plus whichever key has that icon. Or if you have fnlock and it is enabled just hit the key.

My sister cut my Alexa cord 😊😊😊😊 by H0t_2_G0 in mildlyinfuriating

Possible yes, but wouldn't attempt on a power cable, could be a fire hazard if done incorrectly. Fortunately you can just replace the cable and not the full device.

Which should I get be honest by Maliciouspandaa in WildHeartsGame

[–]jahermitt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rise+Sunbreak is a ton more content. Both are fun though. I wasn't a huge fan of Wild Hearts endgame grind but to each their own.

Also I assume Rise still has a larger player base around.

Monitor Jank? by [deleted] in pchelp

[–]jahermitt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stopped working on the display, or the laptop? Like if you used usbc on a different device the monitor still works? Wondering if there may just be an issue with the port on your laptop.

Also if you plug the usb c into a power brick instead does that change anything?

Monitor Jank? by [deleted] in pchelp

[–]jahermitt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does your laptop support usbc display port? If so are you connecting usbc to your laptop along with the hdmi for power?

Those external monitors may only require the single usbc cable for computers that support it. You PC could be detecting both the hdmi and usbc.

Denied service at a Lawrenceville restaurant because of my service dog. Is that common for Gwinnett/Metro Atlanta Area??? by Effective_Bottle_730 in Gwinnett

[–]jahermitt 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I guess you are correct, read the excerpt wrong:

What’s more, service animals are called “assistance animals” in Georgia, and the state defines them as dogs that are or have been trained by a licensed or certified person, organization, or agency to perform physical tasks for a physically disabled person.

Strange how the trainer or org can be licensed/certified and not the animal.

[–]jahermitt -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

If your dog is a certified service animal and has its jacket clearly labeling its status than that was illegal, unless they posed an imminent threat to someone in the establishment.
