And imagine how much they sacrificed to make it 9.5mm. Not to mention that phone is an outlier (and the iphone 16 is actually 7.8mm). Priorities changed, phones now need more space for things like a bigger battery, better cameras, bigger heatsinks for faster performance and less throttling.

There are technical reasons. You can’t just put in a sliding keyboard on a modern phone and expect it to work the same. They’ll have to cut on so much to fit that without being too thick, and in the end you’ll end up with a phone that’s worse in every way and probably more expensive, for a feature so little people want.

How? His phone was still thicker than phones now and that doesn’t have a cover.

You’re comparing the market 10+ years ago to the market now… Your old phone was tiny compared to modern phones, which is a market that barely exists anymore because people prefer larger screens. It’s one thing for a smaller phone to have a sliding keyboard, but slapping one on an already big phone would make it heavier and clunkier to use. The fact that touch screens are way bigger means that using a touch screen keyboard is much easier than it used to be, making slide out keyboards unnecessary.

I don’t understand why every tech community acts like their niche opinions apply to the whole market. “Everyone wants small phones, we all want sliding keyboards, remember when operating systems were simple?” etc etc. I guarantee you if someone ACTUALLY made the type of phone you want it would barely sell and be seen as a gimmick.

I mean it sounds good on paper but who’s going to want to buy a phone that’s 2x thicker because it has a sliding keyboard? No doubt it’ll be really expensive to make too.

It’s weird that they’re adding E2EE on voice but not in private DMs, which is probably everybody’s biggest concern when it comes to security on Discord.

Everyone: I wish Mozilla would just focus on their browser and not their other BS

fast forward to them cutting costs on a Mastodon server that nobody uses

Everyone: WTF??? I KNEW MOZILLA WAS A FAILURE OF A COMPANY CORPORATIONS ARE NOT OUR FRIENDS WHAT CLOWNS

Threads like this make me wonder why any corporation would bother with the fediverse when this is how most people are on mastodon

Well yeah, the line has to be drawn somewhere, but it’s still super high budget compared to any animated series out there. They spent roughly 10 million dollars per episode! High budget anime would usually spend something like 1 million dollars per season. One punch man season 1 reportedly spent $80k per episode. The difference is massive.

Arcane by far. Gorgeous art style, great colors and composition, great fights. It’s going to be hard to beat it considering how huge the budget was.

AFAIK web scraping (the act of grabbing and downloading any data you see available on the internet) isn’t illegal, and I would assume downloading PDFs provided to you online would fall under that. Since it is copyrighted it would probably be illegal to share it, though.

It would have been good if they didn’t lie so much about what you can do with it and fail spectacularly

What an overreaction. Also FYI the free file limit was 8MB two years ago before they raised the limit to 25MB, so if anything it’s gotten better.

I guess you missed the part where he said “Oh you said X but you’re actually implying Y? Did you mean Y? Please confirm you actually meant Y.”

I’m an avid palestine supporter, but what’s the point of this thread? You know there are no Israel supporters here save for trolls, and this isn’t a question, it’s a rant.

Can you confirm that you think with L3, the result would look completely opposite and the summaries of the AI would always beat the human summaries? Because it sounds like you are implying that.

Lemmy users try not to make a strawman argument (impossible challenge)

No, that’s not what I said, and not even close to what I was implying. If Llama 2 scored a 47% then 3.1 would score significantly better, easily over 60% at least. No doubt humans can be better at summarizing but A) It needs someone that’s very familiar with the work and has great English skills and B) It needs a lot of time and effort.

The claim was never that AI can summarize better than people, it was that it can do it in 10 seconds and the result would be “good enough”. People are already doing AI summaries of longer articles without much complaints.

I read the article. I’m aware it’s an older study. Point still stands.

The most promising model, Meta’s open source model Llama2-70B, was prompted to summarise the submissions

Llama 2 is insanely outdated and significantly worse than Llama3.1, so this article doesn’t mean much.

You know those timelapse youtube videos where you watch ants eating a small fruit within a couple of days? Imagine that, but with it happening a lot faster with so many ants covering lions that you wouldn’t be able to see them.

!casualconversation@lemm.ee ?

It’s pretty well known at this point, they lied about their initial goals and nothing they’ve done in ages has been “open”. It’s all been closed research that they won’t share because they don’t want anyone else to catch up.

Also they had a lot of friction with their AI safety department because caring about safety would slow down business.

I’m the most active postee there (hello again). I prefer LW’s gaming community for a few reasons, a lot of which are kind of petty but still.

1. I dislike the shitjustworks domain name, I think it’ll hamper community growth when a casual user base joins and thinks it’s a dumb name

2. The people there often mirror /r/games posts, there’s nothing wrong with that and I enjoy browsing it, but I enjoy the more quality over quantity of LW’s community

3. games@lemmy.world has clean icons and branding which is cool

But mostly it’s just reluctance to move away from the largest gaming community in Lemmy. Content is hard to find, and I talked about this many times, leaving LW communities means splitting the userbase even more and wondering where the content is. People are tired of migrating and just want to post and discuss. If having a large instance causes technical issues, that’s more of Lemmy’s problem IMO.
