>"they trained their model on ChatGPT"
Gee... I wonder why the Chinese tech is stupidly cheap... it couldn't be because they've stolen technology, like they always do.
This is why all this hype around Deepseek doesn't phase me. China always lies. For now we're still clueless about what the lies around Deepseek are.
@j I'd hug her. Maybe pet her head. Hopefully one day... I'll... hold her hand.

The politicians, sure. The average leftie voter and/or activists are too stupid to understand economics.
@LukeAlmighty Honestly, I'm beginning to reconsider Jesus' quote, "Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth". What if he was talking about people who are meek when it comes to political ideology?
@LukeAlmighty Honestly, I think it might be the foundation of any strong ideology. Anything too far beyond "let's try to be nice to each other" seems to need some amount of retardation to deny the reality in front of them in order to try to reshape society and human nature.
@LukeAlmighty So he's retarded. What else is new?
You scream, I scream, everybody screams for Linux to get it shit together by 2038.
@Honkers So they plan to kill their own? Can't tell if they're stupid or just plain self-genocidal.

Oh, I know. Which is why I usually reply to him by mentioning Windows or something like that.
P.S. I wasn't a fan of systemd the first time I encountered it, because I kinda learned how the previous thing worked, and just didn't appreciate the change. But now that I'm used to systemd... I honestly kinda love it. It's nice to be able to make a script that triggers whenever a certain external HDD connects, and does an auto-backup.
@Suiseiseki @eternal_cringe
You know what, you're right. Clearly it's time I switched to Windows.
@eternal_cringe Correction: Linux can actually run Genshin Impact. Tested it myself.
@PraxisOfEvil
Remember that time China bragged that they released a high end desktop CPU, but it turned out it was just a rebranded Intel CPU a couple of generations old? Just make sure you don't blindly trust whatever China says. And we also can't exactly rely on western journalists to investigate and benchmark these things either, cause we know just how incompetent they are at everything.

Weirdly enough, these drop off points can be more convenient for all parties involved.
For the customer, maybe you're not at home at the scheduled delivery time. And maybe you don't want the package to just be left at the door, in case someone tries stealing it. Also, where I leave, I don't think delivery drivers are even allowed to do that. When I get a package, I need to give them a code sent to me via SMS from the store to confirm that I'm the client who ordered it.
And maybe I'm just a misanthrope and I don't want to deal with a human to get a package. But if the package is delivered to one of these drop off boxes, I can just swing by it when I return from work or whatever, and pick it up. The drop boxes are widespread enough that there's little extra walking I need to do to detour to one on an outside trip.
And for the driver, he has a simpler delivery route, with less stops, less fuel usage, etc. More environmentally friendly, more traffic friendly, and the driver can focus more time on delivering to the customers who specifically ask for things to be delivered straight to them because it's more urgent.
@Mr_NutterButter Because we're better than you.
Jokes aside, maybe what you're noticing is just the more left-wing mindset of people.
@PinochetsCommieCopter It's a fun meme, but do Americans actually want Canadians?
