Probably specific by country then because I didn’t have to show any ID. FWIW

“To sign, you must provide a set of personal data, which is required by the authorities of your country for verification purposes.” which is as of a week ago and still today :

• nationality
• name
• birth date
• address

Nice try FBI, you’re not getting that info from me!

I don’t think eSIM providers do but I admit I didn’t check. It’d be even more convenient, no need to leave your home to switch.

Exactly, sure disconnect customers from the Internet if they use it for entertainment… but once they use it to earn the income that pays their bills, it becomes questionable… and once it is in practice required to be a citizen, at the local, national or supra national level then it becomes a totally different question, to which the answer is basically no, you can’t disconnect someone otherwise you remove their citizenship.

Ironically enough that’s is exactly the kind of seemingly “simple” question a 4 years old could answer… but LLMs can’t.

Asked my better half to test DeepSeek locally few months ago and they, without trying to “trick” it (as I would have tried) genuinely tried “What time is it in Sri Lanka?”. That made me smile because I was rather sure there was no way the model could answer that. It would need to know the current time on any time zone then, if it’s not in Sri Lanka already (which it wasn’t on my local system) would have to convert it. That would be very basic arithmetic (that some 4 years old could also do) but not “just” spitting back words related to the question.

Guess what… it failed exactly as expected. The model replied back “information” (which is being generous for a string of words arguably related to the topic, which was mostly about Sri Lanka, not time) and yet was basically irrelevant and thus useless.

So… yes I’m not actually sure CoPilot could even help there unless there is a lot of custom made handling of this kind of queries upstream!

What?! Haven’t your heard?

• FSD is happening next year, for sure,
• we’re still 18 months away from developers being replaced,
• it’s “deep” reasoning, basically nearly ASI!

/s (obviously)

changed the search engine in Firefox

Which… takes maximum 1min to do.

I do check other media but I do not participate in them anymore, e.g. I browse reddit or https://old.reddit.com/r/worldnews/ but I deleted my account months ago.

He should just goto hell early.

He’s going to Mars as soon as FSD on Tesla is ready, next year for sure!, to not blow in his rocket then once there chat with his amazing chatbot telling him, with 20min delay for each message, that he truly is the best.

What an absolute retard.

So many you didn’t list one.

Also OP didn’t talk about AI broadly, just vibe coding.

Hopefully it was a symbolic downvote. They say they did only to provoke but in reality they did upvote.

Good analogy as most people don’t understand how a microwave is working either.

That being said, at least microwaving isn’t on fast track to pollute our entire ecosystem so…

Hand them a mirror.

I literally asked, you implied.

specs were too low

what usage was limited by specs?

On Firefox (my default browser everywhere it’s available) I use the Coil extension but seems it’s now called InterLedger (Wallet) cf https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/web-monetization-extension/

If you go on my web site https://fabien.benetou.fr/ you should see 3 hearts under the 3D model if it’s enabled.

being sensationalist. OR (and more likely answer). Musk is building some bespoke data center in the middle of bum-fuck nowhere without the local infrastructure to support it

It’s exactly what’s been reporting in several pieces from 404 Media, and others. Namely xAI does NOT have the infrastructure BUT Musk has a history (Tesla, SpaceX, etc) of cutting corners. He “gets shit done” like no one else not because he’s particularly smart or efficiency … but because he breaks the law, as simple as that.

histrionic

True… yet nearly everybody else, maybe beside few like 404 media, seems to be either boot licking or access “journalism” so I get the “spicy” take.

May I introduce you to https://webmonetization.org/ ?

Yes but I need to carve out time for it. I explicitly warn others about that, that I will be unavailable because I’m playing. I usually think of it as a choice between playing vs something else I enjoy doing, namely sports outside, watching a show, reading a book, coding, etc.

To expand a bit on the “I explicitly warn others” it also means I dedicate time for others but I also expect to have time for myself, including to play. I actually even recommend other adults to do so. Video games can be absolutely amazing. They can be an art form or something casual, they can be about any topic. I genuinely believe that adults who do not play, and I mean in a healthy fashion, are missing something. It’s just so damn fun!

IMHO if you consider it a valid hobby like any other and don’t try to “cheat” by squeezing it in in addition to everything else, removing time for chores or worst, sleep, then sure you might have time for it BUT, yes, like every other hobby it is a privilege.

Edit: anyway, back to Clair Obscur. FWIW finished BG3 last year (3x), Elden Ring this year (offline), so I do spend a bit of time on long, very long games, but it does take me a while.
