Nokia is a mobile infrastructure giant. They are just mostly business to business, so like Texas Instruments they are rather easy to mistake for being small.

Live service games are not only balanced around tedium, they are designed around tedium. Without it people wouldn't buy boosters etc.

Adapting the meta faster than people can catch up and letting people pay to keep up simply switches the game from balance by tedium to straight up pay to win. Or pay to play optionally, at least, which live service games heavily push you towards doing.

People will chase the meta regardless. Balancing a game by introducing tedium often results in people merely finding the game tedious.

Krita er dejlig til at lave digital kunst i. Jeg hører den ikke følger helt så godt med til billedredigering. Passer det i nogle af jeres erfaringer?

I would be cautious to trust an American company just because they are non-profit. We know that if they get sufficiently big they can just transition into being for profit (see OpenAi), chances are regulations regarding this won't become stronger later.

Signal being open source of course helps, but it's usually the ecosystem that people grow to rely on that keeps them in place, not the technology. Just look at how big Reddit is compared to Lemmy for a good example of that. If signal was federal that would be quite different since jumping ship would be easy.

You can offload them into ram. The response time gets way slower once this happens, but you can do it. I've run a 70b llama model on my 3060 12gb at 2 bit quantisation (I do have plenty of ram so no offloading from ram to disk at least lmao). It took like 6-7 minutes to generate replies but it did work.

An external cartridge processing and providing battery power seems like a much better idea than the current solution of wearing the computer on your face. A small shoulder strapped device weighing a few hundred grams with a headset with more of a BSB sort of profile would be ideal for me.

I'm glad to see Apple experimenting with some ideas like this, not so much because I want an Apple headset, but because if it turns out to be a popular idea others will jump on board.

Well this is rather ironic. I'm thinking of the Opium Wars back in the day.
