You could use LLM like AI to go through vast amounts of combat data to make sense of it on the field and analyze data from mass surveillance. I doubt they need much more excuses.

Case could be made tech bros have overhyped the importance of AI to military industrial complex but it nevertheless has plenty of nasty uses.

I don’t listen to many pods but this is one I listen frequently. Much recommended

Couldn’t someone just remake it or is it still protected with some corpo patenting bullshit?

Most of my friends moved to telegram at some point, but attempts to have them move to signal, let alone matrix are futile.

Turns 25 Antitrust trials begin.

Great thread, although I tbh don’t even want alternatives for most of them.

Lemmy, sure.

Discord, would be nice but until I get my friends and servers to move to something else, not gonna work.

Facebook, I don’t ever want to use anything like it even if it was open source.

Mastodon, I don’t want to use it despite being fedoverse cause it tries to be like Twitter and I hate Twitter.

Pixelfed, I don’t really want to use anything like instagram and even if I did, not relevant until people I want to follow use it since I wouldn’t post myself.

Tictoc, I would rather scoop of my eyeballs with rusty spoon than use it, no matter if it would be federalized.

Others not mentioned I don’t care enough to know how they work. Still, I support the sentiment of making fedoverse alternatives for things, although I personally only need lemmy and discord to get my dopamine fix.

I went with best AMD I could get at the time, 7900xtx sapphire nitro. For gaming, it’s already really good, I can use raytracing, although not on best settings on some games,but in most cases I can just max out the settings.

Main complaint atm is that self hosting AI is much more annoying than it would be on nvidia. I usually get everything to work eventually, but it always needs that extra level of technical fuckery.

Shout out to whoever picked that thumbnail image.

If I didn’t read it twice, I would have, since too many ads disguised as memes
