What does it mean "fully local"? I have an old "kitchen Macbook" that I'm using pretty much exclusively for stuff like looking up cooking recepies. I don't have any photos there, any messaging apps, etc. But I'm logged in with my Apple account.

And guess what, that "local graph" sees everything I did on my iPhone - I see contacts from all messaging apps, including Signal. I see image-based people clusters, even though there are no local pictures to match faces against.

If you had to try your best to interpret what they mean, what would you say? I’m willing to bet that you could get there.

Maybe it's you who are seeing what you want, not what's there. :)

If you came to my house to take a shit on my carpet, it wouldn't really hurt anyone, but I'd still throw you out.

But... but... the singularity? Surely the supersuperhuman intelligence can get a free lunch.

I only hope it shares the crust.

Will there be another free lunch in our lifetimes?

And you are basing this on what, exactly?

AI boosting seems to be very close to pulling shit out of ass.

I'm running qwen 3.8 flash next with strata (q3 quant) on laptop with 5090 and 128G RAM and OMP harness. At 90t/s speed it is pretty much good enough already.

Interestingly I have the opposite thing (living in Poland) - seasonal summer depression, lasting until the darkness sets in. :)

And Google already had "Duet AI" before Gemini. :)

> American cultural dominance has made it so everyone knows 911 and even Europeans apparently end up dialing it.

This is a ridiculous opinion.

It’s weird that that opinion occurred in a comment where they already knew about the reverse decision. It’s more of a case of pragmatism than cultural dominion.

I suppose they think that if America didn’t have so much cachet, that calls to 911 in Europe should route to a recording of someone chewing you out (in whatever the local language is) for being a cultural imperialist.

Do you work at M$?

No, but like most people I matured out of name calling many years ago.

Your previous comment is evidence to the contrary.

Why haven't you?

What name did they call them?

10: Fun fact! Language carries implications. It is possible to say things about people without using the literal direct words that would typically be used to say the same things.

In this instance, the comment "get in line behind slashdot" is being used to imply that the other commenter is something like out of date, unoriginal, or participating in a hivemind. These further imply that the other writer is immature enough to resort to insults, and in their doing so either unintelligent or unmotivated to create their own insult.

Both commenters are engaging in ad hominem and perhaps poisoning the pot, but given that this is not a logical debate the behavior is not so much of a fallacy as just potentially abrassive to certain audiences. The first was abrasive to the second, and the second was abrasive enough to create a comment on hypocrisy.

Then, you asked your question and I said "goto 10"

If you can't interpret his post try asking an LLM.
