Yeah, similar here. We use Pareto Security (which is perfectly fine). I’m a bit worried though that some decision maker sees this and thinks "neat, now allachines can be managed via [whatever the Microsoft interface for that is called]

What? I explicitly do not believe you can “murder” an LLM, I’m saying that due to the way the technology actually works, that if someone genuinely believes an LLM is sentient or alive, then sending a message to it mist also mean it “dies” afterwards.
LLMs are obviously neither sentient nor alive (and therefore the concept of murder doesn’t even remotely apply).
That doesn’t really change anything. Every function invocation is still completely separate. Doesn’t matter if it’s a single conversation where you always answer, or parallel conversations.
An LLM is a stateless stochastic function ran over your prompt (plus whatever system prompt) as input.
If you genuinely believe that the LLM is conscious, that means every time the function stops running (i.e. stops producing output tokens), the consciousness ends.
This is far closer to death than to, say, sleep, because prompting again doesn’t “wake” the LLM, it just runs the function again, from the top; as if a digital twin was given a transcript of the previous conversation and asked to take it from here.
(Obviously, “murder” was somewhat tongue-in-cheek, and this doesn’t even remotely meet any legal definition of murder. I was mostly poking fun at people who think LLMs are alive, without thinking through the implications. Personally, I think the idea that LLMs are alive/conscious/sentient is very often linked to not understanding that LLMs are not, in fact, a constantly-running ghost in the shell, thinking about and remembering things in the background.)
Is it an LG though? The APIs I’m using are WebOS specific
If someone truly believes LLMs are sentient, then they must under no circumstances prompt them even once; that would be murder.
In terms of public bathrooms, I think I avoided them altogether for a long while (probably longer than necessary tbh), until I got my legal paperwork done. Thought was, OK, now I’m definitely allowed in here, so if someone takes issue, I’m on the safe side.
(Noone has ever taken issue.)
That was 2018, I think (?). Couple of weeks ago I was on an extended trip to Japan, and my GF convinced me it’d be no problem to go to the hotel Onsen. And indeed, it wasn’t 🤷🏼♀️ Still took overcoming a fair bit of panic, but just like back then, there were zero issues.
Hmm, you mean when HA sees the TV come back? Interesting, that might work.
I’s rather not do the force refresh option, because sometimes you do want different profiles. Very dark show, sometimes I want the bright setting at night. Very overcast day, sometimes the dark setting is better during the day.
How do you mean?
Kiss someone else, then ask your partner?
Or are you asking how to approach the topic with your partner?
Hah, great question. I did. And then I realized, this only works if the TV is on the moment the switch happens.
Which in the evening is actually pretty commonly the case… But never in the morning.
Do you need a Github link? Assuming recent-ish LG, should he the same.
I have a lot of custom stuff, esp. regarding HomeAssistant integrations. But my favorite “stupid/not stupid if it works” solution is the following:
I have an LG TV and attached Nvidia Shield. The Shield is the only input we ever use on the TV, and since its remote also can turn the TV on/off and control volume, its all we need. Which is pretty neat, only one remote.
Except for image settings (i.e. proper bright picture during the day, different less bright image mode during the night). I don’t want to keep the extra remote on the couch just for that, but unfortunately, these settings are not exposed via HDMI CEC.
They are, however, exposed via a web API on LG TVs. So my utterly stupid solution is this:
(I feel the need to add: the TV is in an isolated subnet and has never once communicated with the internet, and it will damn well die an internet virgin.)
Anyways, this has been working flawlessly for 2+ years! I also have toggles in HA for the same endpoints, but honestly, never use them. It’s so nice to just be able to toggle the image via remote.
How / what are you jumping to?
I am in one (I think… see below). We agreed to open the relationship, IDK, 7 years ago? Something like that. We’re both bi/pan, and sexuality- and kinkwise pretty incompatible. Neither of us was remotely willing to give up the relationship because of that though, because romantically and non-sexual-intimacy wise, the relationship is amazing. Oh god I love her so much.
Anyways, we decided to open the relationship with a couple ground rules:
She went on a couple of dates but didn’t actually end up sleeping with anyone, I slept with a couple of people. And… things were cool! It worked out for us. If anything, we grew even closer.
The reason I said above that I “think” we’re in an open relationship is simply because neither of us has taken advantage of the openness of the relationship in at least 3 years, lmao. And so if I would decide that I’d like to get active again in that regard, that would 100% be preceded with a “hey, are we still open? Are you still comfortable with that, or have your thoughts changed?” conversation.
Woah, trotzdem krass. Ich hab gerade mal 260 Films, davon vielleicht 50 gesehen, und keine List auf die anderen 😭 Dafür ähnlich viele Serien, und alle gesehen und für gut befunden 😄
Wie bitte was. Und ich bin schon happy mit knapp 12 TB Serien/Filmen.
Du hast fast 4000 Filme und 3000 Serien???
Just guessing, but most likely: blah blah funds tied up due to legal reasons, something something family trust and lawyers; please send me 1k so that I can then totally send you the 35k afterward :)
