The crowd exhales we know

Thanks for letting me know! You're not going to believe this, but I, too, use Arch.

WHY ARE YOU NOT UPDATING TO WIN ELEVEN? Hard to recommend this OS without QA.

[–] sheogorath@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Agile has been a mistake for the software industry. It did nothing except to give executive more avenue to force changes to the software that are being developed and in the end it'll take a longer time to have production ready software when compared to traditional waterfall approach.

Your OS isn't getting regular updates!!!

This is a feature imo.

Linux users: "See what we mean?"

Windows users: "La la la! I can't hear you! Losing my data is clearly better than having to learn something new!"

How's that vibe coding working out for ya?

Didn't they proudly say how much of windows is AI generated slop code a few months ago?

So you're saying I'll be safe from this if I stick with win 10 past October?

[–] UncleGrandPa@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

So it's working as planned?

[–] tekato@lemmy.world 52 points 3 days ago (2 children)

The reporter’s own “test” proves this is caused by faulty drives unable to sustain the speed they advertise, not Windows.

[–] muusemuuse@sh.itjust.works 32 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Are you suggesting the drives are accessed more slowly before this update?

of file corruption when symptoms occurs" adds the report (Translated from Japanese by Grok AI).

Why would you use an LLM to translate text? There are tools made specifically for that

[–] Saleh@feddit.org 22 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (2 children)

Which are based on LLMs or other neural network models. It is kind of the thing that language models are actually good at.

See DeepL for example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DeepL_Translator

The service uses a proprietary algorithm with convolutional neural networks (CNNs)[3] that have been trained with the Linguee database.[4][5]
According to the developers, the service uses a newer improved architecture of neural networks, which results in a more natural sound of translations than by competing services.
The translation is said to be generated using a supercomputer that reaches 5.1 petaflops and is operated in Iceland with hydropower.[6][7]
In general, CNNs are slightly more suitable for long coherent word sequences, but they have so far not been used by the competition because of their weaknesses compared to recurrent neural networks.
The weaknesses of DeepL are compensated for by supplemental techniques, some of which are publicly known.

[–] lena@gregtech.eu 14 points 3 days ago

Yeah I know they're based on LLMs, but they're more adapted to translation, right?

Butbutbutbut Linux is not ready for desktop! I asked a stupid question in an Arch forum and they told me to RTFM! It does not support kernel level anti-cheat! Terminals are scary!

Etc, etc.

[–] Dumhuvud@programming.dev 10 points 3 days ago (16 children)

It does not support kernel level anti-cheat!

Huh, thought you were mentioning only the cons.
