We’re not talking about individual people, but whole corporations and organizations.

For example. Instance.social is shutting down. Now the whole Org needs to migrate 150 accounts to someplace else. Oh and the old posts are being deleted, can’t migrate those.

And the support community you created on there, is going away also. Again, can’t really migrate all the old posts and comments. But the FAQ documentation we put there when people asked about it, can be manually copied to the new place. So that’s something

That’s not a situation any company would want to be in. Better to have their own social home, that they control.

Hard disagree.
Running your own social media server for official accounts, so you’re not beholden to the whims of other providers, is kind of an obvious thing to do for online organizations.

Yes that’s correct.

All has posts from all the communities the members on that instance subscribe to.

I’m not sure I understand why they don’t.

I thought bringing chiplets to GPUs, meant they’d be able just add as many CUs and cash dies as they needed to get on top. Even if it’s $3.5k and 1000W, they should be able to. They could sell 100K units as some limited edition special thing, and pull mind share away from nVidia by having the undisputed top card.

But they don’t. Which is why I think they undervalue having a halo product. They don’t think it’ll push units further down the product stack. I think they’re clearly wrong about that. People buy cards that fit their budgets. But they buy brands they know to be the best.

I think they underestimate the marketing value of a halo product.
That, or it’s just spin to account for the fact that they don’t have one.

All 4 of them are cheaper than the launch price of their 7000 series counterparts. That’s quite good really!

Monopolies don’t require 100% of a market. Just enough to effectively manipulate a market.

One firm might only be 10% of a market. But if every other firm is only 1-2%, that 10% will have an outsized monopolistic ability to manipulate that market.

Really? No personal information like name, address, phone number, search history, YouTube viewing habits? None of that stuff

Signal is fine for instant messaging.

Matrix is closer to Discord.

Am I the only one who doesn’t like to use these?
And refuses to use the frame generation?

I’d much prefer real 30fps, over strange fake 120.

4K seasons of shows.
You can compress Blu-ray quality video down to 10-15% of the space if you throw enough CPU cycles at it. Typically it takes me about 20 hours, per hour of video.

Honestly, I’m more interested in the new motherboards.
Apparently they made some real improvements to the memory system, supporting up to DDR8000.
I don’t need that speed, but I would like improved stability. My current system can’t run Handbrake for more than 36hours without things getting weird.

Kagi AI generated summary. (I had to do it)

The web has become an extraordinary public resource, but it is now at risk of being destroyed by the advent of AI. Generative AI models like large language models (LLMs) are disrupting the traditional relationship between writers/creators and their audiences. LLMs can synthesize answers to queries, cutting out the original creators and leading to the rise of “large language model optimization” (LLMO) - manipulating AI outputs to serve special interests. This threatens to degrade the quality of information on the open web, as creators may stop producing content for the public commons. To preserve the web, search engines need to act more like publishers, platforms need to nurture human creative communities, and AI developers must recognize the importance of maintaining a healthy web ecosystem for their own benefit.

Exactly! We need HIPPA style laws covering all personal data.

So it doesn’t actually matter if Kagi can do something SearXNG can’t.
It’s cheaper. No argument with that.

Because it’s not just that.

So I only have to find one thing Kagi can do, that SearXNG can’t?
Then what?

It always seemed like a massive amount of money and effort, to replace a couple dozen low wage workers. In the end it didn’t even do that.

Notification controls on android are pretty great in my experience.

Most apps (good ones anyway) breakdown different types of notifications, and you can turn off the ones you don’t want. And if they don’t, you can just turn off all notifications for that app entirely.

It all works pretty well.
