Jan Wildeboer 😷:krulorange:<p><a href="https://social.wildeboer.net/tags/lazyweb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>lazyweb</span></a> Which powerline adapters work for you? I am thinking of upgrading my current ones (TP-Link with AV500 that does max 500 Mbit/s) with the newer version that doubles the theoretical max. Experiences, anyone?</p>

Noah Liebman<p>My nephew is asking whether an RFID-blocking wallet or card is worth it. I haven’t seen much discussion of it in privacy circles, and I’m not finding much reliable-looking reporting on it. So, does it make sense to have one? <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/lazyweb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>lazyweb</span></a></p>

Daniel Lakeland<p>I want to show my German student the old-school joke "ad" making fun of Apple ads where an evil mastermind in his lair describes how easy linux is to use... notable lines about "recompiling your kernel" etc. I can NOT find this on the internet anymore.

szakib<p>Hey Fedi!</p><p>I need to convert a 4TB RAID array. I will move the data off it and then back. Currently it's NTFS (and Windows). When I'm done, it will be LVM+EXT4 (and Linux).</p><p>Does the file system of the intermediate storage make any difference to the speed or otherwise? If yes, what would be best? (I might hit the 4GB file size limit on FAT32.)</p><p>Also, is this best done by copying files, or would it be faster (probably not safer) to manipulate the existing partition?</p><p><a href="https://freeradical.zone/tags/AskFedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AskFedi</span></a> <a href="https://freeradical.zone/tags/LazyWeb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LazyWeb</span></a> <a href="https://freeradical.zone/tags/Storage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Storage</span></a></p>

Álex Sáez<p>This is an absolute honest question. There is a lot to hate about the LLMs (mostly business around the training and the general purpose LLMs) but I honestly would like to hear also the positive side of them. If anyone has takes that are not based on their shallow hyped promises (no english is not the new programming language), I am all ears. <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/lazyweb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>lazyweb</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/llm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>llm</span></a></p>

Tanguy Fardet<p>I just discovered the ARC-AGI initiative and the associated test to estimate how close "AI" models are from <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/AGI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AGI</span></a></p><p><a href="https://arcprize.org/arc-agi" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">arcprize.org/arc-agi</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>While I found the initiative interesting, I'm not sure I understand what in this test really guarantees that the model is capable of some form of generalization and problem-solving.<br>Wouldn't it be possible for specialized pattern-matching/discovering algorithms to solve such problems?<br>I imagine some computer scientists, mathematicians or computational neuroscientists have already had a look at this, so would anyone knows of some articles/blogs on the topic?</p><p>Maybe <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://scholar.social/@wim_v12e" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>wim_v12e</span></a></span>?
