  • So you believe that Google is sharing the personal details of everyone that watches particular videos with some shady left wing cabal of pundits? Maybe it’s just an inappropriate video.

    They even cited the exact episode, there are plenty of other ways to see that clip if you don’t want to log in. And isn’t it always republicans passing laws requiring ID for “adult content”?


  • If you believe that AI is “conscious” while it’s processing prompts, and also believe that we shouldn’t kill machine life, then AI companies are commiting genocide at an unprecedented scale.

    For example, each AI model would be equivalent to a person taught everything in the training data. Any time you want something from them, instead of asking directly, you make a clone of them, let it respond to the input, then murder it.
    That is how all generative AI works. Sounds pretty unethical to me.

    And, by the way, we do know exactly what happens inside processors when they’re running, that’s how processors are designed. Running AI doesn’t magically change the laws of physics.






  • Are you sure vsync is disabled? It looks like you’re getting a very consistent 144fps.

    I personally keep vsync enabled, but you should absolutely disable it if you’re testing your hardware since it forces the fps to never exceed you monitor’s refresh rate.

    As for throttling, it’s only useful as a diagnosis tool. First and foremost you should be finding other people’s benchmarks of your hardware (cpu/gpu) and running those benchmarks yourself at the same settings. Phoronix is a great resource for Linux benchmarks.
