PC processors entered the Gigahertz era today in the year 2000 with AMD's Athlon β€” AMD hit marketing gold with its 1 GHz Athlon, beat Intel by a nose Consumer PCs have long abandoned the multi-GHz race for core count and NPU inflation.

Everyone remembers their first. This was I think my second or third PC build. I’ve been (mostly) AMD ever since, Mac’s not withstanding www.tomshardware.com/pc-component...

I think war is bad and I think there’s a lot of bad stuff going on I don’t agree with but the declassified video of a ship being hit by a torpedo was kinda neat

Ah ok. Stopped at a Sheetz thereabouts on Friday, saw someone that sorta looked like you but admittedly I haven’t seen you in a few years.

Also weirdly unrelated question: do you live near Canaonsburg/Bridgeville?

I assure you the gun is nearby as well.

if nothing else I'm just really excited that so many people are (re)discovering the command line these days

Above all else, I do think AI tool use is cool
And useful, but with that exception of Claude all my models run local. There’s just too much of a privacy and security black hole with this stuff

My TikTok feed is just one user after another rushing to cash in on the hype, then 6 posts later talk about all the stuff it can’t do. It’s a slow motion head-on car crash except we’re all trapped in both cars

Maybe I’m finally aging out of tech but I fiddled with OpenClaw and it scares the shit out of me; not just because of what it can do, but the amount of sheer god-tier access you could give it (even accidentally). There are people out there setting up brokerage accounts for it to β€œgamble with”

Microsoft uses plagiarized AI slop flowchart to explain how Github works, removes it after original creator calls it out: 'Careless, blatantly amateuristic, and lacking any ambition, to put it gently' The official Introduction to Github page included an AI-generated graphic with the phrase "continvoucly morged" on it, among other mistakes.

It’s so cool that everyone looks at AI tools that have disclaimers to the tune of β€œthis might make mistakes” and accepts it, but if I say to my boss or customers β€œI might make mistakes” the reception might be vastly different

It’s so bad. I have to basically skip any video on a topic made in the last year or so. I also wonder if this actually saves content creators time, given that it takes time and effort to create the generated content?
