Also it’s not as RAM limited because it uses system memory which can be upgraded.

Any reason you need to encrypt the host OS information? I would assume anything interesting would be in the VM and you could probably have the VM encrypt it’s own storage.

To make sure there is not a misunderstanding, the wattage of a PSU is not how much power it will draw. The wattage is how much is can supply. So if you have a 1000w PSU, but all your components draw 200w of power it will use about 200w of power.

Additionally, if you plan to get a lot of HDDs in the future, do some research on power rails. Some PSUs are designed to only be able to supply a small amount of power to things like HDDs because most people only have 1 or 2.

I have used audiobook shelf to read a couple of PDF files. Seemed to work fine. I mostly use it for audio books.

I find the constant stream of people hyper focused on the worst possible outcome tiresome and frustrating. But instead of responding with that, I intentionally tried to express compassion and concern for a complete stranger. But because this is the Internet, naturally people interpret my actions with the worst possible intent.

That being said, how are you doing? Have anything fun you are looking forward to?

Your view seems to be hyper focused on the most pessimistic way of interpreting things. Are you doing OK? Seriously, I know how easy it is for everything going on to overwhelm you with negativity. How are you doing?

I think it would be a good idea to do a section of your work with and without AI modification. Then have people listen to both and give feedback. Good to find out if people like the modifications before you do a tone of work.

That depends entirely on how profitable it is and how much they can get authors onboard.

I do agree that a good narrator delivers a performance that adds the work. James Marster will always be Harry Dresden in my head.

True. This may actually be a boon to smaller devoplers who can sell games for less money because there development costs are less ambitious.

Yeah, prices will only go down if sales go down massively. And since video games are likely being used as an emotional coping mechanism, that seems unlikely.

I would guess the AI capabilities were over sold and even when it can do useful work it still requires a lot of human hand holding. It’s like a very enthusiastic intern, very motivated but you need to double check it’s work.

If you have mechanical HDD you may want to get a foam lined case and anti static bags. That should be the best approach to avoid drive damage.

As for leaving things in the rack, I am concerned that road vibration could walk screws out. That would be bad.

I think a part of the problem with current AI is that it’s trying to be an expert on all things. Humans can have similar issues, were they are legitimately an expert in one field and makes them over confident in other areas. So current AI is a better bit then a newb at lots of things and over confident. Haveing models with more focused training would improve how useful they are.

Like your example, it would be great to have an AI that is focused on how to do good research and doesn’t try to be an “expert” on anything else.

I have been using it for documentation a lot recently. I find tweaking/correcting it’s 70% correct comments to be less time/effort than writing it myself from nothing. I think part of it is using Cunningham’s law on myself.

I don’t think it’s about anthropomorphizing the tool, it’s about expressing appreciation for the tool. Showing appreciation to a wrench may being as simple as making sure that you clean, oil, and properly put it away when your done using it. The tool is not a conscious entity, but the mindset of appreciation will make you more likely to properly care for the object resulting it being useful to you for longer.

Yeah. AI is an interesting tool. I have good success in asking for mostly small specific bits of functionality that I then integrate into a larger script. It also helps with rubber duck programing by requiring me to more clearly specify requirements.

No, he is being attacked because he publicly contradicted Trump. If do anything Trump perceives as “making him look bad”, he will attack you.

So was what I said. I was presenting a hypothetical way they justify their ridiculous claims by doing something else ridiculous.

But conveying tone in text is difficult, so I’m not surprised you missed what I was going for.

To be fair. We assume “months” means less than 2 years. But 10 years can also be “months”, and is probably a more realistic timeline.

If your mean the next big architecture, sure. If your meaning literal cores, they still have a long way to go. I’m sure they will have competitive performance eventually, but not real soon.
