Well OpenAI allegedly bought a boatload of mac minis. And I dont think it was for brushing up their resumes and watching porn.

What about Mistral AI? Stable Diffusion? They Nazis too?
And ‘genAI’ - not sure what thats suposed to mean but AI use is growing fastest with the boomers and all ages are using it.
Spouting nonsense about things you clearly know little about makes you sound as backward as the MAGA morons.

It hasn’t changed at all, some of us just use LLMs to help us code.
What has changed is the influx of morons thinking they are devs cos they can vibe code an app full of bugs and security risks.

I’m still using an old Apple TV. I’m not happy about it but haven’t found a good replacement yet.
There’s a few interesting options for software in this thread. In terms of hardware - maybe a NUC or something? Would have to be small, quiet and relatively cheap.

Apple‘s little gambit to be immune to AI price fixing savagery
I don’t think it was ever a strategy. If it was they would’ve stopped mac’s from ever reaching OpenAI’s datacenters. Or atleast they’d have prevented them from hoarding so much of the M5 production.

But thanks for the ‘hurr hurr I am not from the US’ excuse
Its not an excuse, I’m not American. I live nowhere near US, thankfully. I’m not even adjacent. Why would I be subject to tarrifs applied to goods imported to the US?
And FYI the current (global) price of tech is because of the rapid expansion of datacenter compute. Fuck all to do with tarrifs.

Not for me. You know some of us don’t live in US, right?
And I wasn’t passing comment on whether or not it was a good thing. I merely pointed out that the reason the tech bros were upset was the fact they were being taxed.

Epstein class when they’re raking it in:
“This is amazing”.
Epstein class when you try and take a small portion of their wealth away:
“This is terrible and I hate it.”
(PS. I hate Trump but this is essentially what’s happening here)

AppleInsider reported Thursday that layoffs at Apple Vision Group were anticipated because the company’s expensive VR headset was not selling well since its launch
I mean, what did they expect? People have been trying to make VR a thing since the 80s.

Good luck, dumb phone means no encryption, SMS and MMS are stored plaintext and freely shared with US three letters and phone convos have been spied on en masse since the 80s.
That wouldn’t be an issue, if say, the dumb phone existed for emergencies only.
you’d have to give up phones
I did mention that as a possibility
Realistically you’d need to fall back on the postal service, but people can steam open letters
Well there’s always carrier pigeons and jungle drums.

You constructed this overcomplicated chain of thought that supposedly proves GOS sold out
Actually, that’s not what I’m saying. GOS is a small team, and they’ve confirmed that most of the work has been left to Motorola/Lenovo. Given what we know about the Chinese state, its not a stretch to imagine that interference has happened.
And I’m not arguing anything. All of what I’ve said is possible based on what we know (through verifiable information in the public domain) about the activities of the Chinese state. If you choose to call that a conspiracy theory thats up to you.

If you read what I originally wrote I mentioned that Motorola had done most of the work in porting GOS to their hardware. To me that sounds like Motorola/Lenovo having oversight of both hardware and software. I’m not an expert in the capabilities of the Chinese state but I’d put money on them using their influence to give them an advantage on GOS.
Again, I’m not a fan of US or Chinese tech. I’m not a fan of either regime. I don’t know what the alternatives are. I’m on an older Pixel running GOS but I won’t be upgrading to Motorola - once this phone dies I’ll probably get a dumb phone or give up mobiles entirely.

Back when Grindr was owned by a Chinese company there was concerns that data from the platform could be used to blackmail western politicians and civil servants.
I can’t remember the details but my point is - just because you don’t live in China it doesn’t mean you’re risk free.

I think Lenovo would’ve been prevented from teaming up with Graphene if there wasn’t a way around its security measures, be that hardware or software.

Interestingly, Motorola itself is doing “a large portion of the work of porting GrapheneOS to their devices”.
…and Motorola is owned by Lenovo, which is effectively controlled by the Chinese state.
I love GrapheneOS but jumping into bed with the CCP is bad, bad idea.
Edit: I’m not a fan of US tech either, and this isn’t an “I hate China” post. They are both awful countries.

Basically the same conclusion I came to. Which is terrifying when you think of all the devs who depend and all the money thats riding on it.
there were some key syntax things it got wrong
And syntax is the kind of thing llm’s should be awesome at. If they can’t even get that right we’re all cooked.

This one doesn’t.
