I know it won’t be popular because people would rather downvote and claim AI is useless but it genuinely is amazing and claude is clearly the best by far

if you want to self host your own you can do that for example with /c/[email protected]

don’t bother learning html and css, just use claude code and it’ll get you a nice basic website, unless you’re looking to code as a hobby then go for your life

i did the google take out and then just a regular drag and drop, everything went fine but all my screenshots had no dates in the metadata by the looks so it put them all on a single date which caused immich to stop loading properly

just once it did I went through and deleted all my old screenshots and now it’s all good again :)

afaik MariaDB is the open source version of MySQL

seems like so far things are going well, businesses spend more on ads on google 🙃

Google, for now, is still laughing its way to the bank. The search giant is putting advertisers’ ads within or directly above and below AI Overviews themselves. As Google CEO Sundar Pichai said in an interview last year, “If you put content and links within AI Overviews, they get higher clickthrough rates than if you put it outside of AI Overviews.” Organic links are pushed down.

Even in 2024, market research company SparkToro’s study of searchers found “almost 30 percent of all clicks go to platforms Google owns.” For every 1,000 Google searches in the United States, 360 clicks go to a non-Google-owned, non-Google-ad-paying property. With the rise of AI Overview, Google’s share can only have grown, while everyone else’s has shrunk.

I believe maps and youtube were money losers for google for a very long time but the goal was to keep people within the google ecosystem where they can extract money from users in other ways

The ‘quiet part out loud’ isn’t being used how it should be

Microsoft appears to genuinely believe that AI features are what customers want even if they don’t directly ask for it, nobody asked for Google’s AI feature but it’s hugely popular, people freakin love it (except here on Lemmy of course where it’s the devil), Google see that users are staying on their site longer and not clicking through to sites as much which is a win for them and a win for users

A real quiet part out loud would be ‘Microsoft knows its users don’t like its AI features but don’t care because Windows isn’t a money maker for them compared to Microsoft Copilot 365’

JFC a positive post on tech and 3/3 posts bitching about techbros, AI and gaza somehow ?? 🫥

we got people getting “ai psychosis” so yeah…

In terms of heat, what kind of room do you have it in? Somewhere with good natural airflow, or away in a closet somewhere?

Just on floor in garage upside down so the laptop air vents face up, nothing special at all but main thing not in my office heating up the joint 🥲

as opposed to china who recently just kidnapped a whole island of people who very clearly did not want to join china?

as opposed to russia currently invading ukraine?

as opposed to europe who is ignoring the icc and its laws demanding the the arrest of netanyahoo? and who are the weakest of the big 3 militarily by quite some margin?

i think maybe some people need to have a reality check

so far you’ve got no evidence that apple or any other major company is advocating for war with anyone

you’ve got no evidence that the majority of capitalists worldwide (billions of people) are interested in a war for economic gains (let alone for any reason!)

at this point i don’t see the point in continuing to argue with you

Capitalists want others to loose money so their comparative wealth keeps growing

Yes and capitalists are overwhelmingly not invested in war…

I don’t know why you think anyone with capital from Joe HomeOwner to the largely female CEO’s of the worlds biggest chaos merchants are all on the same page of selling weapons?

As of Jan. 1, the CEOs of four of the nation’s five biggest defense contractors — Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics and the defense arm of Boeing — are now women

I can assure you the average capitalist does not want their house blown up, they want to sell iphones and go to sleep.

I argued that destruction renews demand

No you didn’t, you said capitalism loves war because it gets to sell destruction, it was then explained to you that this is the broken window fallacy, you then doubled down

Also, during ww2 few large companies and their stake holders profited most: Ford, IBM, IG Farben

And who cares about them now? is Ford or IBM a monopoly? lol?

This place is like a financial illiteracy zone, the moment you explain to them how the economy works it turns to conspiracy theories

For some oligarchs in Russia? Great

So not capitalism, correct.

Yeah doing great, are you able to focus on the discussion though?

edit: no response so yeah, clearly not able to type more than a single sentence

What are soldiers usibg to contact their families? What graphics cards are used for tactical AI? What software is used, etc.

And how does war benefit the economy overall? oh right it doesn’t, we have numerous examples, UK/France/Germany in ww2, the Russian economy today is fucked because of its war with Ukraine, it was doing ok before 2022 certainly not as bad as it’s doing now, capitalism does not want war, individual companies might, but not the country itself not capitalism, a broke country is not good for selling products

The richest capitalists hold the most stakes. They govern because they decide, what tools/weapons they offer to the people, to the government.

Are you American by any chance? This might explain a few things

are you able to type more than a sentence or does this cause your keyboard to overheat?

that doesn’t make it any less stupid

the broken window fallacy is old and well known, what he’s saying makes no sense

capitalism doesn’t want war because war is bad for it, particularly because war is usually waged by governments/nations

eg. apple has no desire to go to war, it wants to sell iphones
