The grand hilbert hotel is a metaphor about infinity. If a hotel has an infinite number of rooms, it will have enough room for him. If every room is full, they can all still move up by one room number. Infinity means you can always shift everyone up by 1 room number.

The ship of theseus is a philosophical question about whether it’s still the same ship after having every board and nail in it replaced over centuries of repairs gradually replacing all of its parts.

Asking if Sisyphus is happy is a reference to a famous Albert Camus (French absurdity philosopher) quote “One must imagine Sisyphus happy”

Came here to post the exact same thing, happy to see you had it covered

Ehhh, kinda. Intel E-cores kinda throw off the balance a bit, but generally yeah.

So first of all, you shouldn’t involve yourself in your friend’s business. Fraud is generally frowned upon.

But secondly, you know that ChatGPT was trained on the entire internet, right? Like, every book. I don’t think “more books” is gonna help.

I hope you take your computer skills and make something of yourself. Try not to get any more involved in this scheme, seriously. You don’t need this crap marring your reputation.

Besides, there are better reasons/ways to fight the system than helping other people avoid learning.

Just that they’re no easier to use to fool an anti-AI system than using ChatGPT, Gemini, Bing, or Claude. Those AI detectors also give false positives on works made by humans. They’re unreliable in the first place.

Basically, they’re “boring text detectors” more than anything else.

I believe commercial LLMs have some kind of watermark when you apply AI for grammar and fixing in general, so I just need an AI to make these works undetectable with a private LLM.

That’s not how it works, sorry.

Quantized with more parameters is generally better than floating point with fewer parameters. If you can squeeze a 14b parameter model down to a 4-bit int quantization it’ll still generally outperform a 16-bit Floating Point 7b parameter equivalent.

Sunshine docs show how to not stream the Discord audio

As far as your system being muted on your end, there’s a setting in Sunshine called audio_sink. If you set that, the sound will be captured from whichever device you set instead of a virtual device. That will keep Sunshine from muting your speakers.

Sidebar: that’s why the Penumbra games have excellent VR support now, for those interested in shitting their pants.

Happy to help!

It’s almost certainly not the drive.

What version of Wine or Proton are you using to run those games? Heroic should let you install a bunch of different versions. Personally I use Proton Experimental and the Steam Runtime for BG3

Somebody recently mentioned Monado, which apparently supports asynchronous reproduction on Linux. Should help a lot with the stutter

IMO, if you want the beast deals right now on a 12+ TB HDD, you should use serverpartdeals.com instead. I’ve got 2 manufacturer recertified 14 TB enterprise-grade drives from them and it was way cheaper than buying any 14 TB external drive.

Does he not realize that Biden could have him assassinated if it passed?

I totally agree. There are exceptions to every rule, but random people on the internet who you aren’t being paid to solve the problem for by a very large majority would benefit more from education than having their problem solved for them.

Teach a man to fish and all that.

I just read this as a “not” joke. As in, “yeah that was the fastest ever CO2 increase in earth’s history. Not”

Lunar eclipses have a range they’re visible from just like solar eclipses do, but they tend to be much larger since it depends only on if the side of the moon being eclipsed is visible from a given location at the time

But it is helping effectively.

It’s less efficient to learn how to do something than to have somebody who knows how do it for you, but it’s more effective to learn for yourself. Hard won knowledge is rarely lost.

Not at all. He just thinks he is (or should be) above the law
