  • Haha, that’s the former head of my department. They asked for a good raise (after building the infrastructure from ground up), the company said nah, so they left for a better position and much more money than what the current dept. head is making. The company now pays for their consulting, and the management still hasn’t learned their lesson, because they’re still stingy with the raises.


  • Skirting around Elon being a Nazi to make the issue with Grok look all the more mysterious is what made me roll my eyes. “Nobody knows how it happened”, “Elon is just confused, surely his intentions are pure!”. My man, do I have a bridge to sell you.

    All these videos somehow miss—what I believe to be—the actual threats of LLMs. And that’s large scale voter manipulation and environmental impact. But it’s always the Skynet type clickbait of “AI” dooming. Oh yeah, wait. It’s because it’s more shocking and drives engagement, since the average person doesn’t seem to care about politics and climate change.



  • Isn’t the second sentence incorrect? You can force local account creation by running oobe\bypassnro to bypass the internet connection requirement which lets you create a local account instead. And at least on the Pro(?) version it can be bypassed by choosing the Domain account option even if the PC won’t be joined to any domain. It just creates a local account. I have to deal with Win 11 installations as part of my job and this is the way I’ve been doing it.

    All this is not to defend M$’ attempt to force this bullshit on the users. I’m a Linux user and steer clear of M$ products whenever and wherever I can. Just wanted to point out an M$ account isn’t necessary to setup Win 11. (Unless these workarounds are only possible in the Pro version?)


  • I can’t speak for low battery, but I can for different brands of calcs.

    Back in high school majority of students had this specific model, and I had a different one. My entire answer to a question on an exam was correct, but my calculator somehow calculated different decimals to the ones from the popular model. And it was like 4th, 5th decimal or something. The asshole teacher took all of my points away on that. Meanwhile, one of her fave students forgot a very important part of the formula which made the calculation completely wrong and the teacher still gave them half the points for it. God, I hated school, lol.
