Brian Eno: “The biggest problem about AI is not intrinsic to AI. It’s to do with the fact that it’s owned by the same few people” in c/technology@lemmy.world

I don't know nearly enough history to be an expert on this subject, but I've heard that one of the causes of the Enlightenment was because peasants and poors were able to afford to spend time learning and creating, rather than substinance-farming.

I've heard of the Brain Health Registry: https://my.brainhealthregistry.org/

But I have no idea how well it works

I've been using the 'Silence' app, which lets only known-callers ring your phone. The rest get sent straight to voicemail

I'm not who you replied to but..... I've run a bunch of models through https://github.com/Mozilla-Ocho/llamafile and https://ollama.com/. I'm lucky enough to have a decent video-card (24GB), but if you are willing to be a bit more paitient, or run a lower model, you'll probably be able to get it going.

How come in most school in the USA (at least mine) they teach Spain Spanish instead of Mexico Spanish? Would not Mexico Spanish be an obvious choice to teach? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
[–] lemminator@lemmy.today 2 points 2 weeks ago

I grew up in California and had the opposite experience. I had friends who grew up speaking Mexican-Spanish at home, and would take the Spanish classes to get an easy A.

The teachers never understood what the Mexican-Spanish students were saying, and kept telling the native speakers that they were doing it wrong.

Anyone know why americans are relatively unconcerned about dying to totally preventable stuff like disease? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

Honestly, I just block the people who keep repeating that kinds of BS. They aren't worth my mental energy.

Does that mean I miss out on a bunch of discussions on .world? yes, but not wasting my mental energy on bad-faith arguments is worth it.

Fair enough. I'm sorry to hear all that. I'm lucky enough to have a good tech job, but I'd love to have a good tech job in Sweden instead of here in the US.

I'd love to move to Sweden. Any advice on how to move out there?

Does it? TIL I always thought it meant "official" or some such, but had no bearing on whether they were elected or not

Tim Walz says he may run for president in 2028 despite failure of Harris campaign in c/politics@lemmy.world
[–] lemminator@lemmy.today 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I don't think that's even remotely true. While it is true that the USA has it's fair share of racists and sexists, Hillary won the popular vote, and Obama is one of America's most popular presidents.

Harris lost because she ran a terrible campaign, on the coatails of another terrible campgaign, from a terrible president.
