I’m sick and tired of the Capitalist religion and all their fanatic believers. The Western right-wing population are the most propagandized and harmful people on Earth.

Seems the only 'dark side' was that he was caught..

Sims , to Ask Science in If two identical radios are side by side and tuned to the same frequency, will they both pick up the signal at 100%, or will they wrestle for the same radio waves?

A laymans opinion on the challenge: Waves lose energy, and the exact placement of antennas will matter. I don't know what the mechanism is called, but we don't place wind turbines right next to each other. That is afaik because each turbine takes some of the energy out of a larger chunk of the wind-wave in an 'bubble' around it, so we place them with optimal distance according to efficiency of that mechanism. If I'm right the effect will probably be minimal.
Anyway, just a stab at an interesting thought..

There's imho no stupid questions regarding personal cyber-security. There are only things we don't know yet.

Sims , to Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ in Made a screensaver for my e-reader, thought you guys might like it as well

I'm old. Once upon a time 'screen savers' were used for ..saving screens, I swear it's the truth :-) I would've bet money on screensavers disappearing when CRT monitors did, but that certainly did not happen. It exploded. I kind of expect that someone by now have created a screensaver ..plugin for another screensaver..

Not picking on you, just feeling old suddenly. I tried searching for 2024 all-time insane screensavers but only found this 13yo one from vsauce: iv.melmac.space/watch?v=zwX95UaKCRg

..but I'm curios what have happened in 13 years, so if any lurkers know better search-fu, please add..

Sharing is caring <3

Hmm. I just heard about Khoj https://github.com/khoj-ai/khoj from worldofai on YT https://youtu.be/Lnx2K4TOnC4

From the readme:

Khoj is an application that creates always-available, personal AI agents for you to extend your capabilities.

You can share your notes and documents to extend your digital brain.
Your AI agents have access to the internet, allowing you to incorporate realtime information.
Khoj is accessible on Desktop, Emacs, Obsidian, Web and Whatsapp.
You can share pdf, markdown, org-mode, notion files and github repositories.
You'll get fast, accurate semantic search on top of your docs.
Your agents can create deeply personal images and understand your speech.
Khoj is open-source, self-hostable. Always.

I read a comment somewhere that Stremio uploads like a normal client. Just a comment oc, but it should be easy to check for a network savvy reader. It may be that the plugin does it, dunno.

Sims , to Selfhosted in Self hoating an LLM for research

You need more than a llm to do that. You need a Cognitive Architecture around the model that include RAG to store/retrieve the data. I would start with an agent network (CA) that already includes the workflow you ask for. Unfortunately I don't have a name ready for you, but take a look here: https://github.com/slavakurilyak/awesome-ai-agents

Sims , to Selfhosted in Transparent compression layer on Linux?

Not much help, but a quick search revealed this: https://github.com/nschlia/ffmpegfs

This seemed to be read-only tho, so not sure if it covers the use case you described. If you can program a little (AI help?) find a simple fuse filesystem in a language you know, fiddle with it and call ffmpeg or similar on receiving files.

And then we have some saying that CBS NEWS is garbage entertainment! I think not..

Sims , to Futurology in Anthropic just published new research that successfully identified and mapped millions of human-interpretable concepts, called “features”, within the neural networks of Claude.

..oc it also opens up for manipulative use by corporations. I.e we will probably quickly see commercial models that inflate users ego by exaggerating how amazing the users insights are, or recommending Corp interests - all hidden for the user, and just to profit from the $!@ model.

Cool !

This opens up for 'AI Psychology' and for direct manipulation of internal states related to preferences and interactivity, a.k.a 'emotions', 'focus', bias etc. It should also be able to mimic MOE models where each 'expertise' is done here by direct manipulation of weights. It can also learn to some extent without training, so its a new fine tuning technique and it definitely shows an internal world map for concepts etc.

Curios if similar neuronal patterns are available in all models with this method, or if the method were optimized for Anthropic models.

I haven't heard that before, so I had to search a bit. This poster says Stremio uploads, but theres no docs. https://www.reddit.com/r/Stremio/comments/182cb7f/does_stremio_upload/

Cheapest upgrade? Cram an old Android mobile in the USB port, and run a few services on that via Termux..
