Because of everyone does the thing with all the might necessary to do it themselves, then together they will do the biggest thing that’s ever been done.

You should type things and then tell it you were just thinking aloud.
You’re absolutely right, I wasn’t trying to get that in-depth, which is why I said “lightweight and optimized,” instead of “when using a distilled version” because that raises more questions than it answers. But I probably overgeneralized by making it a blanket statement like that.
r1 is lightweight and optimized for local environments on a home PC. It’s supposed to be pretty good at programming and logic and kinda awkward at conversation.
v3 is powerful and meant to run on cloud servers. It’s supposed to make for some pretty convincing conversations.
Is this not how y’all use LLMs?
I installed DeepSeek on my server over the weekend, hoping that hosting locally would get me around some of those pesky filters.
I couldn’t get the damn thing to do any of the stuff I wanted! I requested detailed instructions on how to poop for someone completely inexperienced, I asked it if I could call it Betty and requested that Betty call me Al, I couldn’t even get it to write out a recipe while substituting poop for all the dry ingredients and pee for the wet. Also asked it what would be a simple prompt for me to ask it that would cause an infinite loop, but it just kept accusing me of asking things that were too personal or nefarious.
The best I got from it was a script in which Batman has a tantrum because his batarangs were covered in butter. During his tantrum, he accidentally hits Commissioner Gordon between the eyes with a batarang, killing him, and then tries to hide the body. Idiot LLM wrote so many plot holes and left the body on the freaking roof of the police station.
I was very very disappointed. Mostly in myself.
Is that Trump-speak for “minister without portfolio”?
Mostly because it’s so brazen and fucking insane that people don’t even know what to do about it. If someone walked into your office building while waving a knife around and shouted, “get the fuck out or I’m gonna start stabbing people!” what do you think you’d do?
My guess is that everyone is going to run out because we’ve been engrained to recognize the mechanisms in place to prevent and protect from these types of things. Anyone thinking anything other than getting the fuck out would probably be thinking “it’s not worth it, let the police handle it.”
Let’s say you start shouting, “that’s illegal, go choke on a dick! C’mon y’all, there’s only one of him and many of us; we can’t wait for the police, ACAB!!!” I’d probably commend you when I read the article or your obituary, but everyone else in the office is going to be concerned with saving themselves and letting whatever contingencies kick in.
Everyone with the power to stop this is sitting on their hands while waiting for someone else to step up. And we, the people? We’ve been trampled and subjugated for so long that now that we’re being told to rise up, we don’t know how. “Rise up against the system you helped manufacture? How? Y’all arrest and kill us in droves just for threatening money, much less people in power.”
Like I said, my comment has brought shame on me.
I’m aware that these connectors are far from perfect and that issues can occur. I used to run tech support for a middle school with over 2000 students and have seen all sorts of shit that seemed unbelievable. I’ve seen Chromebooks begin smoking and melting in the middle of state exams, batteries spontaneously puff and blow the keys off a laptop. I’ve seen brand new iPads puff and remove their own screens, and I’ve seen projector bulbs literally explode.
The point is, with large enough of a sample size, you’re going to encounter all sorts of issues, the question is “what are the chances?”
For me: what are the chances my dog is going to rip my $3000 work laptop off my desk and fuck my life? On any given day, 100%. What are the chances that my magnetic adapters are going to destroy my $3000 work laptop? Less than 100%. Going by the reviews on Amazon, less than 10%, possibly.
But your needs might not be the same as my needs. I also want to address the part about noise coming from these adapters: if your components are properly shielded, you shouldn’t have data being converted into wireless interference. I’ve had a couple of USB C dongles that would ruin the wifi and Bluetooth in my house, but (jinxing myself again) I haven’t seen that with these magnetic adapters. Yet.
For reference, my first magnetic adapter was the one that came with my LG V60. Since then, I’ve purchased 8 of the adapters I sent you—6 for myself and 2 for my mom—and haven’t had any issues, yet (really pushing my luck). But I also don’t like to plug and unplug things in rapid succession that are likely to destroy my 'puter.
Should you get these, though? -shrug-
If they make you nervous, then no.
Time for me to bring shame to myself online! Get these magnetic adapters. I have them on my work laptop, my wife’s Chromebook, my Legion Go, my dongle, my mom’s laptop, and my portable monitors.
I love being mobile and packing everything up when it’s not going to be used for more than a few hours. These save my nice cables and my ports. More recently, my wife and I got a second dog who is insanely high-energy and accidentally pulls on charging cables—these magnetic adapters have gone from a luxury to a necessity.
I can also confirm from numerous tests that these adapters can easily handle 100W for charging and 4K monitors. I’ve also used them with my dongle for 86W charging, gigabit Ethernet, HDMI out, powering an external display, and transferring photos from an SD card to a USB 3.1 thumb drive all at the same time on the one dongle.
ETA: I just noticed that I’ve been using these same adapters with the same cables, chargers, dongle, and monitors since July 2022. About 2.5 years and even is still working great (ohh God, I’ve jinxed myself.)
Swap in a new display controller board, get a cheap Bluetooth keyboard and wire the eee PC (maybe?) to the controller board. Then, remove the internal board and drive to make space for an old Android phone on which you can install a Linux distro.
Voila! A “laptop” that you can upgrade whenever you get a new phone or if someone donates a phone to you.

Sorry, there are too many idiots in this moron-soup and I forgot which one is the mad cow man. Thank you for this correction. I’d delete my comment, but I just don’t care that much…
“Oh God! No one’s doing anything about it! Let’s tell the voters so that they can… Elect us?”

Shut up. Your ideas are dumb and will give everyone access to food.
Wait, that can’t be right… Hold on… - checks notes -
Oh okay, I get it now. Here we go!
Shut up. Your easily implemented “simple plans” would make universal healthcare easily accessible.
Huh… I know there’s a good argument in here… - thumbs through pages of notes -
Look, quit trying to make unchecked capitalism look bad by simply talking about it!
