Technology@lemmy.world•Amazon Caught Destroying Rare Books to Train AIEnglish
191·5 days agoOther AI companies can still buy them, they’re just rare because nobody bought them in the first place. They destroy them because scanning them is faster and in some jurisdictions that absolves you from copyright infringement since the amount of copies doesn’t go up

Technology@lemmy.world•Torvalds: AI Is the New Compiler, Not the New ProgrammerEnglish
1·5 days agoCan’t say I’ve had your experience, Windows always had issues. Think 7 was the least problematic version for me and the last one I remember fondly.
I have a car diagnostics laptop running 8.1 because it doesn’t support legacy boot for 7 and is too weak for 10. That UX was horrendous. Then came 10 which was unusable without an SSD. That sounds like the norm now but back then a lot of people didn’t have them. I’m not even going to mention 11, it came out before the AI craze and has sucked since release.
But the really crazy side of Microsoft is the ERPs. Way too much always changing. Good old systems being retired because they have a worse new one to replace it with, etc.

Technology@lemmy.world•First test flight of largest all-electric aircraft used just $5 of electricityEnglish
2·6 days agoThere are also flights where this could be used as fully electric right now, or very soon if they increase range a bit. If you fly from Tallinn to anywhere via Finnair, you go through Helsinki, that’s like a 30 minute flight. And the reason you don’t just drive to Helsinki is that you’d have to take the ferry which costs more money, takes over an hour and the Helsinki airport isn’t that close to the port.
Similarly, you can fly from Tallinn to the two bigger islands here in Estonia, very short flights versus like a 3 or 4 hour bus ride involving a ferry. 30 and 40 minute flights with the current 30-40 person planes that company uses.

Technology@lemmy.world•Firefox is now the last major browser that still supports uBlock OriginEnglish
5·7 days agoIt’s been Chromium based for ages now. Meaning they’ll likely eventually stop supporting manifest V2 too, unless Google makes it easy for them to keep supporting it.

3060 ti 8GB and 32 GB DDR4 says no, I can’t do that or anything else useful with a local model.
However. Deepseek V4 flash is very cheap and fast. It’ll do anything simple and some complex things you throw at it
