Extremely conservative/risk averse and slow to implement basically anything new, unless it’s super flashy like AI lol
This is really cool in theory, I doubt my corp would let me use it though :(
Oh definitely, it was overwhelming at first for me too, but that’s how one learns imo
Now that I’ve been using it for a year and a half it’s much better but those first few months were quite the learning experience lol

Technology@lemmy.world•Zero-day exploit completely defeats default Windows 11 BitLocker protectionsEnglish
2·11 days agoHaha I started on computers really young, so I got to experience a lot of the early 2000’s era internet.
I forgot about eDonkey, sharing forums are another, used to frequent astalavista forums lol.
You’re right about torrents though in general, really changed the sharing game.
I remember Firefox 2 having TABS, instead of a bunch of IE or Netscape windows lmao.
Trying to play warcraft 3 custom maps and getting booted from games because of dialup making the map download take forever (or a phone call mid-game causing me to lag out and get kicked).
I didn’t get cable/dsl until my parents divorced around 2008, I remember sitting in the corner of our empty house (they had to short sell it during the housing crisis and my mom took most of the furniture when she moved out) trying to connect to my neighbor friend’s wifi (that I had flashed ddwrt on lmao) with this windows 95 laptop I managed to flash Linux mint onto to make it usable just to watch some anime.
Fun times.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•How/what to start self-hosting?English
12·11 days agoSurprised no one has mentioned proxmox (at least not the top 10 threads I saw first)
Basically debian with a webui specifically for spinning up VMs and LXCs and managing storage and such, then install whatever distro in an LXC and run docker in that.

10·11 days agoLiterally any programming issue is now vibe coding, didn’t you hear? People wrote perfect code always before LLMs took over all coding and started writing slop.

PC Master Race@lemmy.world•Nvidia's solution to the AI energy problem is mini data centers next to local power substations and, of course, selling even more GPUsEnglish
15·12 days agoWhy exactly does anyone think Nvidia would be the one to solve an energy crisis.

Technology@lemmy.world•People Would Rather Have Nuclear Power Plants In Their Area Than AI Data CentersEnglish
13·12 days agoYes that’s why I said both, renewables require a lot of space both for generation and storage and generally has peaks and valleys on generation, vs nuclear which can consistently provide a stable amount generally.

111·12 days ago“tend to attract questionable investors” what does this even mean, every industry attracts questionable investors and there’s basically zero nuclear in the US to even gauge that from.

831·12 days agoThere’s a huge anti-nuclear crowd, I’d prefer we focus on renewables as much as possible but it’s stupid not to phase out oil/gas for nuclear as a more consistent source.

21·1 month ago“Quietly” I saw the article announcing it weeks ago


The amount of times I’ve had AI solve a problem my 30+ year senior couldn’t figure out on his own applications he’s been working on through that entire time…
