Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What would you do if you found out you're a Replicant?

I thought it much more interesting than the more famous “Crash” movie…

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is sales tax justified for what you get in return or too high?
1·7 days agoNot the question you should be asking. You should be asking: is the total tax burden justified for what you get?
I’m in Oregon and have no sales tax, but my income and property taxes are higher and my total tax burden is a little above the mean. I think I get a decent State to live in, good roads, fairly functional social net, environment protections, mediocre schools. I think the tax burden is mostly justified…

Technology@lemmy.world•Flock CEO calls for ‘compromise’ as surveillance company faces growing backlash | TechCrunchEnglish
4·8 days agoIt’s not a matter of privacy or safety. It’s a matter of how does this technology benefit me? So far, that’s none at all. I live in a place of low crime, so it’s ability to keep me safer is minor if at all. Police abuse it and the upper classes seem safe from it. I do not see any benefit in it’s current form. Lock it down behind court orders without general police/organizational access and maybe? But I’ll still vote against it…
Costco is a huge market so it has many suppliers. I bought a bag a month ago that matched this post: a noticeable amount of empty shells. The next bags were fine. Probably just a wave of product from one supplier.

Technology@lemmy.world•Reddit fades from ChatGPT citationsEnglish
8·8 days agoSame here. I occasionally follow a link to normal reddit it and it lets me see the tread for about ten seconds then tosses up a login popup. Looks like they are locking down the whole site.
At least the bots are pretending to be intelligent. A lot of idiots on reddit that are really degrading the site.

Technology@lemmy.world•When AI art has no author: Study finds generated images often can’t be traced to training dataEnglish
5·11 days agoI encountered this playing with stable diffusion. I was doing Art Nouveau images. With “Mucha” as a prompt I got lots of images in his style but none matched any piece I was familiar with. Whereas if I used “Klimt”, everything was pretty close to a couple of his more famous paintings. Just a variation in the amount of individual works in the training data…

Open Source@lemmy.ml•Inkscape developers need help to push version 1.5 across the finish line. If you have C++ experience and hate Adobe, consider getting involved
1·17 days agoHow is it for ripping apart PDF’s and fixing them? As a prepressman I have yet to find a tool as good as Illustrator for that purpose. I assume being open source it does not have support for Pantone? I was using the Affinity suite before they went freemium and that was not terrible but not quite up to Illustrator…
