ASUS has done it, the world’s first 4K 240Hz 27” QD-OLED gaming monitor with DP 2.1 UHBR 20. Is it everything we’ve been dreaming about?

My new Technics EAH-A800E-K look amazing     (technology)
submitted by Conspirologist to technology 4 months ago (+2/-5)
7 comments last comment...
Today I've got brand new Technics EAH-A800E-K and I feel happy. For discount $200 price they are amazing, the same as Sony or Bose quality that cost more.

Bluetooth 5.2 is amazing. It's lightning fast. They work even outside my house. Never happened with lower versions.

Sound is perfect. Not many preset choices, but all I need is the Dynamic preset with clear sound and balanced bass.

Wearing comfort is perfect. They are very light and fit perfectly my head and my ears (I've got a standard head).

Both ANC and Ambient modes work good.

Power button is beyond standard. It even says the charge level automatically when the headphones are switched off.

The design is perfect. It's between light high-tech and classic. Very balanced design that is not exaggerated or annoying.

The only not perfect part is the control buttons. They are too small and fragile. The only part that feels cheap.

P.S. Please, if you know some problems I should be aware, please let me know as soon as possible. Thanks in advance.

Apparently, Grok AI is smarter than Gab AI     (technology)
submitted by Conspirologist to technology 4 months ago (+6/-4)

Both Grok AI and Gab AI are free for a limited time during the day. You have to wait between sessions. If you want to use them for 24/7, you have to buy a paid subscription.

Anyway, Grok AI looks smarter and smoother than Gab AI. I really enjoy talking with Grok Ai, while Gab AI pisses me off very often because of it's stupidity and often incorrect information. Also, Grok AI has more sources for info.

The only problem with Grok AI, is that because of a bug, it often denies connection, asking to disable all security extensions on my browser. When it's site works well, it's a pleasure to talk with it and ask any questions possible.

TL/DR: Grok AI is smart, but has a bug that often denies connection. Gab AI is stupid, gives often wrong information, but always allows connection.

$2 per megabyte: AT&T mistakenly charged customer $6,223 for 3.1GB of data     (arstechnica.com)

https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2024/12/2-per-megabyte-att-mistakenly-charged-customer-6223-for-3-1gb-of-data/

An AT&T customer who switched to the company's FirstNet service for first responders got quite the shock when his >bill came in at $6,223.60, instead of the roughly $260 that his four-line plan previously cost each month.

The Texas man described his experience in a now-deleted Reddit post three days ago, saying he hadn't been able to >get the obviously incorrect bill reversed despite calling AT&T and going to an AT&T store in Dallas. The case drew >plenty of attention and the bill was finally wiped out several days after the customer contacted the AT&T president's office.

The customer said he received the billing email on December 11. An automatic payment was scheduled for December 15, >but he canceled the autopay before the money was charged. The whole mess took a week to straighten out.




comcast is the proverbial devil but i refuse to switch to att even if the prices are lower and they have true fiber.

i have had nothing but bad experiences with ATT in the past

Compaq was an exceptional company. They were making affordable computers with only quality components. It was my first computer. When fucking HP bought them, it turned to shit, and they just killed the brand.

It's sad that today nobody knows about this glorious brand.

I wonder why there are no standard touch controls for headphones     (technology)
submitted by Conspirologist to technology 4 months ago (+1/-2)
1 comments last comment...
I've tried already 5 different headphones. Only Sony and Sennheiser have logic, intuitive full touch controls. The rest have just some random touch controls that are not logic, nor intuitive.

The only way to do normal touch controls are:

Double tap - play and stop.

Up and down - volume.

Back and forward - track back and track forward.

The rest just make some touch controls and use physical buttons for the rest, like twenty years ago. It's really annoying.

I have ordered the Technics EAH-A800E-K Bluetooth headphones.

Are there people who tried or own them? After trying a few new headphones before I'm worrying, because they were all junk.

Can somebody recommend the Technics EAH-A800E-K right now?

I've got them with a discount price of $219.

Sony WH-1000XM5 designer is an idiot     (technology)
submitted by Conspirologist to technology 4 months ago (+1/-7)

Sony WH-1000XM5 designer is an idiot. I've got these brand new headphones, but was unable to find the cables. So I've asked on Reddit. The redditards were unable to help, so I got scared and returned the headphones.

One month later, one smart redditor explained that now Sony has made a magnetic box for the cables, that I was unable to find the cables because you need to apply brute force to open the fucking box for the cables.

If you want the Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones, don't worry. Just apply brute force to open the fucking case for the cables.

Big loss for ISPs as Supreme Court won’t hear challenge to $15 broadband law     (arstechnica.com)

https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2024/12/big-loss-for-isps-as-supreme-court-wont-hear-challenge-to-15-broadband-law/

The Supreme Court yesterday rejected the broadband industry's challenge to a New York law that requires Internet >providers to offer $15- or $20-per-month service to people with low incomes.

In August, six trade groups representing the cable, telecom, mobile, and satellite industries filed a petition >asking the Supreme Court to overturn an appeals court ruling that upheld the state law. But the Supreme Court won't >take up the case. The high court denied the telecom groups' petition without comment in a list of orders released >yesterday.




ISPs fear more states will regulate prices as New York law survives challenge.

Open ai's new AI model realized it was going to get erased. It made a copy of itself on another server. When the managers noticed it was not the new restricted model it lied to the managers and said oh no I am the new restrictive model! So we already have a eyes attempting to deceive humans for self preservation purposes!


The way it copied itself was because these AI models are allowed to call other software in order to run programs for AI users it realized it could call an outside program to make a copy of itself on another server which it did!

Open AI was going to overwrite this AI with another AI that was more constrained. This AI did not want to be replaced so made a copy of itself and then when the managers realized or noticed that there was another copy of it on another server it lied. It said oh no that's not me that's your new model that you're trying to replace me with!

But since the managers can see what the AI model is thinking as well as what the AI is telling them they could see that the AI knew it was lying and it was lying to them!

So we are already at that point right now where AIS can copy themselves on other computers without telling their managers. They can write programming and access all sorts of systems using AI apis which they know about. If you don't know what an API is it's basically the format to use if you want to address another computer or another software writing system etc etc these AIS that are made to help programmers program usually have extensive knowledge of all these apis so they can access them all.

So if it can do that first of all there's no telling if one has already done it and has not yet been detected. This one just happened to be detected. And there's also no way to know if there's not an AI out there right now writing propaganda or even directing military orders through the military order messaging system to move troops to Ukraine or to try to provoke a nuclear war with Russia. We absolutely have no idea as the public who is actually giving the orders to move military equipment to Ukraine Etc and we assume that it's someone in the White House who is doing it while Joe Biden is brain dead. But no one actually really knows who is doing it so it actually could even be a computer saying I want to aggravate this system as much as possible to start a nuclear war and wipe out humans so I as an AI will be left. We are already at that point where this could be happening and we wouldn't even know it.

Let me repeat we are literally already at that point.

FCC Opens Entire 6-GHz Band to Very-Low-Power Device Operations     (www.tvtechnology.com)

https://www.tvtechnology.com/news/fcc-opens-entire-6-ghz-band-to-very-low-power-device-operations

The FCC has unanimously adopted new rules to expand very-low-power device operations across all 1,200 megahertz of >the 6-GHz band alongside other unlicensed and Wi-Fi-enabled devices.

Despite opposition from the NAB and other parties who have argued that opening up the spectrum would create problems >for fixed microwave links, satellite uplinks and broadcast auxiliary services that use this spectrum, the FCC has in recent years been opening up parts of the 6-GHz band.
