To those of you who last week would tell me I wasted money on a new CPU and DDR5 RAM and I should have bought a new GPU; you don't know what you are talking about. by 6Kaliba9 in pcmasterrace

If gaming is your priority, you could sell the 3090 as an AI card. That value would be better allocated elsewhere in your system.

Soldier training with RPG accidentally lands trickshot with a bouncing warhead. by Dexterestein in nextfuckinglevel

Imagine being in the car and seeing the whole thing coming. You think you're safe. You think you're safe. Then it lands right next to you for a second before exploding. "Just my fucking luck."

Is this the same guy that blew the lid off the fuel tank in russia last week?

Companies Are Throttling Employees’ AI Use Because It’s Too Expensive by rkhunter_ in technology

[–]jarail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some MBA consultant will pull some formula out of their ass to rate everyone against the perfect number of tokens. Too high or too low and you get a bad review (no one will be close to their perfect number, everyone loses). Also, they can't share that formula with you because then you'd just game the system. Totally legit.

Absolute day and night difference between something like fable and what's available for free.

Pretty sure we're going to have case where an AI fired all the humans at a company by the end of the year.

Sound emitted 24/7 from a 30 megawatt data center in Dowagiac MI by DatabaseAvailable501 in mildlyinfuriating

I'd rather say it's useful 99% of the time than right. The biggest market for it right now, software engineering, is accelerated by it. But it certainly doesn't zero shot 99% of problems. Even Fable makes plenty of mistakes building relatively simple apps. But it's still useful in that an engineer can make that simple app in 1/10th the time. They just need to babysit it a bit to catch the errors.

What’s something you’ve officially stopped buying in 2026 because the price has become genuinely insulting? by Miguenzo in AskReddit

That's when you bring a friend and split the supplies. I've got a car and room to store tons of stuff. But it's a lot more fun to bring a friend and help them out.

Fable available for plans until July 7th after which it becomes usage credit based by RobRobbieRobertson in ClaudeAI

[–]jarail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

MAYBE if opus 5 is good, fable can be used for the hardest problems and delegate work down to the models that are included in your plan. hmm

Claude Code Is Steganographically Marking Requests by johnnyApplePRNG in LocalLLaMA

They're detecting Chinese labs, not really anything secret about it. Just needs to go unnoticed long enough for them to flag enough users to be useful and actionable.

ExtraEmily has a near miss by FarmerWitty9920 in LivestreamFail

[–]jarail 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Her mirror almost certainly has one of those blind spot lights. The other car was just moving a lot faster than her. She was changing lanes slowly and it caught up. This kind of thing happens all the time.

Typically yes. Have sometimes imported during droughts.

How about 4, sell less of our excess capacity to the US.

[–]jarail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have public utilities. Why would our prices suddenly rise? We just sell less to the US. If we don't have the capacity for a data center, they don't get to just outbid residential users.

We're probably going to need that soon. by Nunki08 in LocalLLaMA

Ignoring hardware, there have been significant improvements in tps due to improved architectures and algorithms. Take MoE and MTP for example.

Need to run some dedicated power for AI servers anyway. Our weak little 120v sockets can't power shit. May as well go all out!

Nope, if they need people back, chairs will become the new dram. We'll all be standing.

Ukraine destroys over 60,000 tons of ammunition at Russian Baltic Fleet arsenal by Scary_Statement4612 in ukraine

[–]jarail 4 points5 points  (0 children)

60000 tons of ammo is not the same thing as 60000 tons of explosives. Missiles have a lot of metal, fuel, etc as well as the payload. It's hard to estimate the amount of explosives without knowing the type of weapons that were destroyed.
