Elon Musk sues OpenAI and CEO Sam Altman, claiming betrayal of its goal to benefit humanity
  • I believe he’s even showing up in Alex Jone’s spaces on Twitter too. I have no proof and only a gut feeling alongside the participant sounds just like Elon, speaks in vague tech bullshit just like the man, and only espouses goals and a world view that just so happens to align with Elon and his goals.

  • Generative AI’s environmental costs are soaring — and mostly secret
  • That was my thought too. I heard a take about how we may see us shift away from GPUs to purpose built PUs as a way to continue process progress now we’re getting pretty small on the silicon scale. Neural nets may be one of these special “PU”s we see.

  • And I don't plan to switch back either. Everything is just better on Linux for me
  • I’m unsure. I use Gnome (for ease honestly) and Fedora with Wayland, so (iirc) dynamic display stuff is a wash and I haven’t even explored yet since I just use the clamshell.

    I may not be the most helpful for you :/

  • And I don't plan to switch back either. Everything is just better on Linux for me
  • It gets better too. I suppose it depends on your distro and hand ware mix as for what works out of the box.

    Eg. my pure AMD Rog Zephyrus laptop worked with Fedora pretty much “out of the box” once I enabled 3rd party drivers.

    It’s kinda like switching to stick shift— it’s touch weird, but once you’ve daily driven it a bit the system is second nature.

    Not super clean up close, but it looks good from afar!

    Painted my first Rubric :)

    My first army was nids -- what a lovely change of pace!

    You all were so receptive and kind with my last post. It's been honestly a blast painting and building all these little gants. Picked up the Hive Tyrant (non winged), Tervigon, the new Neurotyrant, and Combat Patrol. Haven't painted the really sweet models since I want to hone hobbying on my mass of fodder Tyranids tend to run.

    After talking to the Nid's Discord, 80 Gant's is the target I'm trying to hit. Good lord, I don't know how you "wide army" folks do it 😅

    Painted my first minis ever 🥰

    Learned a lot -- but my nids turned out better than expected!!

    (I still don't know what to do with the tops of their guns, but idk)

    Y'all have a "painting techniques tutorial playlist?

    Yet another new player post

    I'm looking into starting WarHammer 40k, and I combed through advice related from other posts over the years. Found a faction that I vibe with and their aesthetic (Necrons). Additionally, I started to read through the Core Rules and their codex found in the sidebar as well. I just have a few questions related to the 9th -> 10th edition change.

    Will figures that I buy right now (and could potentially be 9th) be legal in 10th edition play? Does the rules/codex changes merely change the 'stats' of the figures? Are there any Necrons I purchase that won't exists/be legal in the rules in 10th? (Idk, say an older figure isn't 'supported' or w.e.)

    Pardon these questions, I come from a Magic Background and there's a concept of rotation from that game and I didn't know edition changes were the equivalent.

    I notice that a '10th ed' Combat Patrol is slated for winter of this year for my skeleton robots, would I be better served waiting for that or acquiring figures right now?

    Cheers for any responses.

    Battle Maps @ttrpg.network itsJoelle @lemmy.world

    [Meta] I have a ton of saved maps to post, but I didn't create them

    As a DM of many years I've collected battle maps, and I could post them here to fill the community with content. This issue is I did not make them, and I wondered how the community felt about posting them here.

    Here's an idea of how to do it ethically:

    1. Include their watermark (obviously)
    2. Include a link to their socials (this one might he hard for me since my only socials are Mastodon and Lemmy)
    3. Ask the creator for explicit consent (this one would be extremely difficult, as above. Additionally, the creator may not exist anymore.)

    Any thoughts? I didn't see rules in the sidebar so I figured to just ask. Thanks!

    iPadOS is not all bad :)

    It's surprising to me how functional this little computer is. The only complaint I have right now is controlling audio input and output!
