Yeah, outlines like subway lines where each colour is visible the entire way would ne nice. Might be a bit thick in some places though.

6·22 days agoAsk fusion researchers, they’ve been maintaining a 30 year difference for decades.
Just some jerkface.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Bazzite sees a massive jolt in installs in late June and early July, catapulting it to over 86k active devices. It has doubled the number of active devices since November.
8·1 month agoI like Bazzite because it has a bunch of optimisations for getting games runnin well, and because it disallows applications screwing with the system. If I really need an application that demands it’s files be put in a bunch of places I can’t audit easily, it can go in a toolbox and not impact the system, or I can audit exactly what it does and layer it into the system.
For a Linux newbie, I really appreciate a system that stays what it is, and doesn’t let anything change that without my explicit approval.

4·2 months ago“Musume” is closer in usage to “Maiden”, and is often used in the same way words like “woman” and “girl” are used in titles, like Wonder Woman or Batgirl.
It doesn’t have a connotation of family by itself.
It got much worse when they went AI First.
Can they just get to the extinguish step already?
Propaganda was short for “congregation for propagating the faith” in 1718, and meant a movement or organization for the propagation of ideology before the end of the 1700s. The modern usage refering to the information disseminated is from after WWI (which wasn’t perjoritive at the time), when German telegraph lines to other countries were cut and they turned to high-power radio communication. The negative connotation comes from WWII after Germany’s very effective use of it.
Nevertheless, propaganda has been used as long as humans have existed, and much like the subcategory “advertisement”, is more effective with as many lies as one can get away with. There’s nothing inherently untruthful about propaganda, but neither is it inherently truthful. It’s manipulation, and can still be effective without lies. It’s much broader than papers to circumvent censure.
Propaganda was originally a branch of the Catholic Church, so the connotation is that it’s as full of crap and dishonesty as apologetics.
It’s more inherent than that in most cases. The job attracts power trippers, the culture and standards in most precincts encourages abusive assholes and corruption, and once the cops can cover for each other it becomes self-selecting for abuse. At least in North America, cops are heavily pre-disposed to being bastards, even before the reality of their purpose.
Why would you want your OS to use you’re memory? My browser already takes too much, and I really push my system trying to run dev-builds of games built for desktops.
In a very technical sense, you can turn any distro into any other distro, in the same way you can turn Windows into OpenBSD.
It’s probably also true in a smaller way, where you could technically reengineer a distro manually by replacing components and reconfiguring things until it works, but why? Someone already did that.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Canonical's New AI Tool Wants You to Talk to Ubuntu Instead of Type
1·2 months agoThat’s just how LLMs read data, it could just be for a text search. The problem is where that data came from, if they’re outputting text from it, if they’re getting people to trust that output, and if they’re getting kickbacks from Nvidia for it.

1·3 months agoFlying Rhino Junior High is a 90s children’s cartoon that is a bit more niche than I remember. The only time I have ever heard the phrase “Flying Rhino”.

3·3 months agoA flying rhino? Such a weird situation! We should name a junior high school after it.
Lunch? Even better!
Those shadows also suggest the sun is on the ship.
And the small text on the bottle is screwy.
And the ship’s title is way sharper than the blurry lower resolution deck below it.
Memes can be propaganda, yes, but they need to be something more, otherwise they won’t reach people.
You can make an image macro of a cat with the text “cucumber bad”, but it probably won’t be very popular. Even then, there’s a history of memes about cats reacting to cucumbers that gives that idea more traction than “Nazis did a nazi”.
Someone asked “why the downvotes”. I explained “bad meme”.
Didn’t know MSN was a meme site
Doesn’t matter. This isn’t a joke, it’s “group does a thing”. There’s no humor.


Why not train a model on exactly one work (effectively encoding the work in the model)? Is the ability to produce something else an argument against copyright infringement?
If the definition of AI is broad enough, train a video encoder and make the act of viewing a video file copyright stripping!
