No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Instead of everyone leaving NATO, could everyone else just kick the US out?English
7·10 days agoI wouldn’t say it’s that bad. NATO is only defensive, so other members have no obligation to join US wars. I admit, NATO conditions can be used to pressure members, but since everyone is hating attack on Iran or Venezuela, the influence isn’t that big. And sometimes the members fight even against each other in proxy wars, for example US vs Turkey in Syria.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Instead of everyone leaving NATO, could everyone else just kick the US out?English
12·10 days agoBecause the most upvoted one thinks NATO is a good thing, but since one unreliable country cannot be kicked out, it should be replaced with another alliance with slight changes. This comment just says NATO BAD.

Technology@lemmy.world•China’s ‘artificial sun’ breaks nuclear fusion limit thought to be impossibleEnglish
10·10 days agoI wouldn’t blame AI, I would say that overall the US is becoming more and more anti-science overall. Just look how people are against vaccines or flat-earthers. Even academics are leaving US because of funding cuts by the current administration. Schools are in bad shapes…

7·10 days agoFusion is possible. It just needs 20 years of research first.

Technology@lemmy.world•Windows users keep losing files to OneDrive, and many don't know whyEnglish
10·10 days agoWhile I agree with you, most people don’t understand what cloud is and since Microsoft is pushing users to use OneDrive, general user would just turn it on just to get rid of the window.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•I felt so betrayed when I found out Germany isn't called Germany in GermanyEnglish
10·14 days agoAs someone from Czech Republic, I am not surprised. There are sometimes huge differences between country names in czech and English. And the closer the country is, the bigger the difference.
For the German speaking countries eng - ger - cze:
- Germany - Deutschland - Německo
- Austria - Österreich - Rakousko
- Switzerland - Sweiz - Švýcarsko
Other examples (eng - cze):
- Czech - Česko
- Slovakia - Slovensko
- Slovenia - Slovinsko
- Greece - Řecko
- Georgia - Gruzie
- Spain - Španělsko
- Greenland - Grónsko
- Hungary - Maďarsko
- Croatia - Chorvatsko

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•When I was a kid, computers expanded your mind and your freedoms, bringing power to the individual. With AI, now it does the thinking for you, takes your job, gives power only to a few billionaires.English
22·17 days agoI have to disagree. The only reason computer expanded your mind is because you were curious about it. And that is still true even with AI. Just for example, people doesn’t have to learn or solve derivations or complex equations, Wolfram Alpha can do that for them. Also, learning grammar isn’t that important with spell-checkers. Or instead of learning foreign languages you can just use automatic translators. Just like computers or internet, AI makes it easier for people, who doesn’t want to learn. But it also makes learning easier. Instead of going through blog posts, you have the information summarized in one place (although maybe incorrect). And you can even ask AI questions to better understand or debate the topic, instantly and without being ridiculed by other people for stupid questions.
And to just annoy some people, I am programmer, but I like much more the theory then coding. So for example I refuse to remember the whole numpy library. But with AI, I do not have to, it just recommends me the right weird fuction that does the same as my own ugly code. Of course I check the code and understand every line so I can do it myself next time.
ji59@hilariouschaos.comtoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•What the fuck is this timelineEnglish
72·18 days agoI honestly don’t know, what to think about this. Maduro is a dictator who had driven third of population out. So I have no sympathy for him. But it is clear that Trump administration doesn’t give a hoot about the people, Trump is even good friend with El Salvador’s dictator. Also, US was many times before successful with overthrowing regimes, but it usually ended in something worse. But in the end, US is the strongest country, so they can do whatever they want. I’m glad I live in a country that is considered an ally and has no oil.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Ignoring the internet bill itself, how many paid online services do you have?English
1·19 days agoI usually use randomly generated passwords of the maximal supported length (or the maximum 100). I would definitely forget even one of these. Password Manager has also great auto-fill feature for fast and simple login in browser or PC or phone apps, and automatically copies 2FA codes.

Android@lemdro.id•I switched to eSIM in 2025, and I am full of regretEnglish
4·21 days agoI wouldn’t be so dramatic. Transferring an eSIM is only a few clicks, there is no need for searching the little thingie to open SIM compartment, no searching for the right hole to stick it into, no fear of losing the tiny SIM card during the process. I would say the transfer process is pretty hard, mainly for older people or people with bigger fingers. On the other hand, you still need the operator and his servers and proprietary code for the SIM to be useful (unless you are building your own network).

Technology@lemmy.world•It Only Takes A Handful Of Samples To Poison Any Size LLM, Anthropic FindsEnglish
5·1 month agoAccording to the study, they are taking some random documents from their datset, taking random part from it and appending to it a keyword followed by random tokens. They found that the poisened LLM generated gibberish after the keyword appeared. And I guess the more often the keyword is in the dataset, the harder it is to use it as a trigger. But they are saying that for example a web link could be used as a keyword.

Can anybody please explain to me, what acre-feet freedom unit means? It sounds so strange. Is it like acre area times foot length?

6·2 months agoFairphone has variant with classic Android, which I have, so paying over NFC with Google wallet worked. I tried it, but do not use anymore by choice. Have you looked for alternatives? I heard about some, but since I do not use it, haven’t searched for them.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Expecting a LLM to become conscious, is like expecting a painting to become aliveEnglish
0·2 months agoOkay, it is easy to see -> a lot of people point it out


Is this on Amazon? If so, maybe it isn’t the seller, who put there the listing. I heard of Amazon using LLMs to put missing products on their page without the knowledge of the seller.
