America against something.
The possibility of Trump launching military operation against Mexico, Canada, Denmark, China, or whatever his dying brain will come up with next is small, but not zero.
I don’t know what will happen if Trump will annex Greenland. I don’t know what will happen if he nukes Mexico. I don’t know what will happen if he puts military ships in China water to intimidate them into giving him money. But I can’t rule out this and many more idiotic actions of his.

Which are? AOC? Americans will vote for smart young latina woman? If I know anything about americans, they will gouge their eyes with a rusty spoon before they do that.
Who else do you have?

Damn, you’re describing my literal worst nightmare. Humans are delightfuly diverse in their tastes

The point is that under the best conditions up close centimeters away from your face you can just about see 0.1. And we’re talking 4 times that two meters away.
Text on the modern tv does look better though. Bu how much of that is that all the technology got better, colours are more uniformed, the light emmiters are more consistent, there is less dead space, etc.
It’s like that old gimmick with cameras and megapixels. Cameras were getting better, but not because the number of megapixels was bigger, still that’s the only number everyone cared about, so they started selling numbers that didn’t make any physical sence.

Right? “Yeah, there is a scientific study about it, but what if I didn’t read it and go by feelings? Then I will be right and don’t have to reexamine shit about my life, isn’t that convenient”

If my quick calculations are correct, the 70 inches screen at 1080p has a pixel size of about 0.7 mm give or take, where 4k would be about 0.1-0.2.
0.1mm is a smallest size of a thing a human could potentially see under very strict conditions. A pixel smaller than a millimeter will be invisible from a meter away. I really, really doubt its humanly possible to see the difference from the distances a person would be watching tv.

The thing is, the newer 4k tvs are just built better, nicer colour contrast, more uniformed lighting, clearer glass, and that might be the effect you’re seeing

This video exactly explains the thing you’re missing about it

It doesn’t matter if you can disable it by cutting a wire, it’s the same amount of security in this case.
There were of course alarms that you couldn’t disable by cutting an obvious wire, just like there are smart alarms that you can’t actually hack easily.

Do you seriously think old alarms were unhackable?

Learn skills that will be easily transferable across countries. Look for a country you would like to live in, learn the language if necessary, research where they are hiring.
Do it before Trump’s third term, there will be a lot more chaos then

I absolutely don’t. Since we’re talking about bad cases anyway, I don’t trust a developer to be diligent in finding bugs in their code more than I believe they will try to make all the tests pass. And it’s easier and better for the ego to achieve that if you write shit tests that only cover cases that you know will work.

Devs are more invested in code they wrote themselves. When I’m writing tests for something I didn’t write, I’m less personally invested in it.

This, I think, is a very bad part of the problem and shouldn’t be happening regardless

My main problem with that, is that it actually doesn’t use the sources it lists. It does it sometimes, and other times the links have nothing to do with the generated text, and some of them might be also non existent, but because it’s not always wrong, it makes people complicit, nobody actually checks the sources, but believe it more because the links are there.

Yeah, but the thing is, I’m not really afraid about anyone else. If someone steals my laptop or finds it or whatever, I don’t really care about what they do with my docker cache. And I’m not a target of any particular hacker group. I just feel dirty when corpos train their LLM on my data to sell me useless shit back, so that’s kind of the only thing that I would like to avoid.

The issue is them adding it to your list without user’s input or even notification. This is unpleasant behaviour that shouldn’t be normal, even if this time there is no damage.

Thankfully it’s easy to remove yet. But this sneaky automatic addition is still annoying.

It’s not a search engine, it’s a random text generator disguised as an engine. It’s worse than Google, if you can believe it. We don’t need more shit that is worse than Google

I don’t know, I don’t see a lot of damage or unpleasantness stemming from someone getting into my /tmp, but I don’t want any llm being fed contents of my /home. I am less afraid of an attack, as I am irked by corpos putting fingers into my shit

Just like shovels existed before the gold rush and will exist after humanity’s death. But we have a saying for a reason

Oh believe me, it wasn’t just luck. They have special labs full of people who’s whole job is to find another unexplored niches that can buy their cards. And they only make specific single purpose cards only when the market is mature enough to justify the spending, which is also smart.
