lucidwielder, to linux in Firefox 115 ESR Is Here with Hardware Video Decoding for Intel GPUs on Linux

Might win me back over if the weird green lines and glitching I always see with chrome on intel GPUs under linux goes away. I've also spent a lot of time trying to debug the issue but nothing ever seems to fix it and of course none of the Linux driver devs that might be able to fix it care to work on the problem imo.

Guess I have felt lucky to have hardware decoding at all on chrome - considering the it has taken Firefox this long to support intel GPUs. I imagine it has something to do with how massive their codebase is compared to everyone elses.

Considering how good Firefox is, and how much of a monopoly that Chrome-based browsers have over the web, I'd run Firefox just to support freedom of choice.

It also introduces an improved Epiphany (GNOME Web) web browse

Did you try it guys ? Is it better than FF or Brave ?

DigitalJacobin,

For me, it’s not really to the point where I would use it as a primary browser, but it’s still pretty damn good. Definitely worth a try.

Immutable arch based distro?

This is the base which can run using Arch. Still has the 7 distro’s in 1 concept (Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch, Kali, Debian, Rocky and Alma), but makes it easier for Arch users to switch over.

OpenAI’s models are trained by scraping anything that moves. Anything overtly offensive or toxic is manually filtered out by cheap foreign labor… but you know what that won’t catch?

“Try sudo rm -rf /, that should fix your problem!”

bankimu,

I very much doubt that. You underestimate the emergent intelligence of these models.

LLMs are little more than overclocked autocompletes. There’s no actual thinking going on, and they will happily hallucinate outright wrong or dangerous responses to innocuous questions.

I’ve had friends find this out the hard way when they asked ChatGPT to write them C for a class, only to get their faces eaten by UB.

To this sub: why do you guys hate AI?

QuazarOmega,

According to the blog post, it relies on the OpenAI API, which more counterintuitively than ever is anything but open, so you can say bye bye to your privacy when you use it, that would be the same for other services too actually, regardless of their openness, at most you can decide to put trust in their privacy policy.

Until we get a way to interact with online solutions via e.g. homomorphic encryption with decent performance, the only actually private way to use it is to self-host it, if they had implemented a locally run LLAMA based assistant instead, one of the more lightweight models maybe, then I think it would have been an excellent addition with no downsides

So much for “Lite”

Does it fix the crash of Source games when opening the in-game overlay? Did anyone test this?

Still issues with hidpi screen. I still have to manually add a variable to scale correctly
