174·4 days agothey flew at approximately 100 meters altitude directly over the radar station
Ehh, this is like saying “this million-dollar tank was unable to fire at a mosquito only one meter away from the driver”. There’s such a thing as a minimum engagement distance.
Or “don’t answer when the magic trees ask things”. I suppose we all learned our own little life lessons today. 💯

Technology@lemmy.world•Windows 11’s 2025 problems are getting impossible to ignoreEnglish
15·11 days agoLots of international manufacturers skip model numbers 4 and 9 because of Asian superstitions. Silly, yes, but they affect sales and even birth rates.
At least in Japanese, 4 sounds like “death” and 9 sounds like “suffering”.

4·21 days agoDoesn’t the decrease signal an improvement for Russia? (unfortunately)
The current generation of AMD processors and motherboards have this “feature” where the first time you boot up, nothing shows on screen for about a minute, sometimes two. Because it’s calibrating the memory or something stupid like that. With nothing on the fucking screen.
It’s obviously some hurried fix for a problem they encountered late in the development process of the AM5 generation, but Jesus Christ is it horribly implemented. The most tense moment when building a PC and they thought making it act as if it’s broken for two minutes is good UX.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How do I explain my reluctance to use generative AI in good faith?
0·2 months agoWhat are some good reasons why AI is bad?
There are legitimate reasons people worry about AI. Here are some of the strongest, clearly framed concerns:
1. Bias and unfair decisions
AI systems often learn from biased data and can unintentionally discriminate—against certain races, genders, ages, or socioeconomic groups—in hiring, lending, housing, policing, and more.
2. Lack of transparency
Many AI models act as “black boxes,” making decisions that are hard to explain. This creates problems when the stakes are high (medical diagnosis, legal decisions, etc.).
3. Privacy risks
AI can analyze huge amounts of personal data, track behavior, or identify people through facial recognition—often without explicit consent.
4. Job displacement
Automation threatens certain categories of work, particularly routine or repetitive jobs. Without proper planning, this can increase inequality and unemployment.
5. Misinformation and deepfakes
AI makes it easier to create convincing fake audio, video, or text. This can undermine trust in media, fuel propaganda, and destabilize democratic processes.
6. Weaponization
AI can be used in autonomous weapons, cyberattacks, targeted surveillance, or manipulation—raising serious security and ethical issues.
7. Overreliance and loss of human skills
As AI does more tasks, people may become too dependent, reducing critical thinking, creativity, or expertise in certain fields.
8. Concentration of power
Powerful AI tools tend to be controlled by a few big companies or governments, potentially leading to monopolies, inequality, and reduced individual autonomy.
9. Alignment and control risks
Advanced AI systems may behave in unexpected or harmful ways if their goals aren’t perfectly aligned with human values—even without malicious intent.
10. Environmental impact
Training large AI models consumes significant energy and resources, contributing to carbon emissions.
If you want, I can also provide reasons why AI is good, help you construct an argument for a debate, or analyze specific risks more deeply.
Were you looking for this kind of reply? If you can’t express why you have an opinion maybe your opinion is not well founded in the first place. (Not saying it’s wrong, just that it might not be justified/objective.)
