AI Thread Summary
Intel's development of PCI Express aims to significantly enhance PC performance. However, concerns have been raised about the potential complications of PCI-E, particularly regarding the introduction of specialized versions for different types of cards, which contradicts the original goal of eliminating legacy ports. Critics argue that PCI-E should simplify connectivity, similar to USB or Firewire, allowing for straightforward plug-and-play functionality without the hassle of IRQ issues. The discussion highlights a desire for a more unified and user-friendly approach to hardware connectivity in PCs.

Asus Vivobook S14 flip. The power button is wrecked. Unable to turn it on AT ALL. We can get into how and why it got wrecked later, but suffice to say a kitchen knife was involved: These buttons do want to NOT come off, not like other lappies, where they can snap in and out. And they sure don't go back on. So, in the absence of a longer-term solution that might involve a replacement, is there any way I can activate the power button, like with a paperclip or wire or something? It looks...

Thread 'The Human Cost of AI'

This week, I saw a documentary done by the French called Les sacrifiés de l'IA, which was presented by a Canadian show Enquête. If you understand French I recommend it. Very eye-opening. I found a similar documentary in English called The Human Cost of AI: Data workers in the Global South.
