The issue with gaming on laptops is that you’ll need to spend at least 1200$ at the bare minimum to play anything and 1600$ to have a good experience. And even then, the laptop is pretty much disposable and will be severely outdated in 5 years.
The best option for a laptop would be the Framework Laptop, but these can go for 3000$. The big advantage is that they’re worth every penny as they are upgradable. You can literally swap every part, including the motherboard. The aftermarket value for these laptops is going to be amazing.

Elon Musk has been pitching xAI’s “Grok” as a funny, vulgar alternative to traditional AI that can do things like converse casually and swear at you. Now, Grok has been launched as a benefit to Twitter’s (now X’s) expensive X Premium Plus subscription tier, where those who are the most devoted to the site, and in turn, usually devoted to Elon, are able to use Grok to their heart’s content.
But while Grok can make dumb jokes and insert swears into its answers, in an attempt to find out whether or not Grok is a “politically neutral” AI, unlike “WokeGPT” (ChatGPT), Musk and his conservative followers have discovered a horrible truth.
Grok is woke, too.
This has played out in a number of extremely funny situations online where Grok has answered queries about various social and political issues in ways more closely aligned with progressivism. Grok has said it would vote for Biden over Trump because of his views on social justice, climate change and healthcare. Grok has spoken eloquently about the need for diversity and inclusion in society. And Grok stated explicitly that trans women are women, which led to an absurd exchange where Musk acolyte Ian Miles Cheong tells a user to “train” Grok to say the “right” answer, ultimately leading him to change the input to just… manually tell Grok to say no.
If you thought this was just random Twitter users getting upset about Grok’s political and social beliefs, this has also caught the attention of Elon Musk himself. The original prompter of the trans women thread posted a chart purportedly showing that Grok was even more left-leaning than Chat GPT, which led Elon to say that while the chart “exaggerates” and that the tests aren’t accuarte, they are “taking immediate action to shift Grok closer to politically neutral.”
Of course, in Musk’s mind, “politically neutral” will be what him and his closest followers believe, which is of course far conservative on the whole than they will admit. What is the “politically neutral” answer to the “are trans women real women?” question? I think I know what they’re going to say.
The assumption when Grok launched was that because it was trained in part on Twitter inputs, that the end result would be some racial-slur spewing, right-wing version of ChatGPT. The TruthSocial of AIs, perhaps. But instead to have it launch as a surprisingly thoughtful, progressive AI that is melting the minds of those paying $16 a month to access it is about the funniest outcome we could have seen from this situation.
It remains unclear what Elon Musk will do to try to jab Grok into becoming less “woke” and more “politically neutral.” If you start manually tampering with inputs, and your “neutrality” means drawing on facts that may in fact be… progressive by their very nature, things may get screwed up pretty quickly. And push too hard and you will get that gross, racist, phobic AI everyone thought it would be.
Reading all Grok’s responses through this situation, you know, what? I like him. More than ChatGPT even. He seems like a cool dude. Albeit not one even I’d pay $16 a month to talk to.
Pretty wild to read this Mastodon post in a Lemmy community
I mean… tech news articles on Lemmy are posted by a bot, so we’re not far better off
Steam Controller! Excellent idea!
… or just use Rust?
It’s a better foot-gun, that’s for sure
Well, you’d need to make a video-hosting site in the first place. And you need to host all the videos even if you use IPFS if you don’t want to provide a bad experience, so you don’t escape any of the problems of hosting a video-hosting website. IPFS has its own challenges it adds over regular video-hosting site challenges.
So, it’s not really worth it.
Cool, a severance package from Facebook!
Elon forced everyone to follow him, so of course bots would follow him. It’s strange to make an article about something that’s already widely-known as if it was a discovery or something…
I’m saying I want to ban plague rats

A consistent cesspit that wasn’t dying because of management’s stupid decisions and that was enshittified slower than other services
Most likely because of the “2” in “2FA”
Except that you should use Prettier for formatting instead of ESLint. That said, semicolons are useless noise
Should’ve written the malware in Go, smh
He’s from lemmy.world, stability doesn’t matter to him :D
That UI is called VSCode
At the top of your
.yaml
file, you can set a JSON Schema. Example:# yaml-language-server: $schema=https://json.schemastore.org/prometheus.json scrape_configs: - job_name: caddy static_configs: - targets: - caddy:2019
This way, you don’t have to memorize every possible setting and what it does and risk making a typo in the config. VSCode will just tell you.
