I meant this to be funny but if someone wants to be somber or outraged those are probably more appropriate responses.

Well we’ll never hear the baby’s side…

Me, too. I mean, I don’t believe in demons, but I’m pretty sure Republicans are as close as you can get.
Twitter was a prime example of that. They started out with something so simple and people loved it. Then they started adding all of these features and I’m really not sure it was worth taking on huge amounts of VC funding to bloat it out to the point of enshittification.
Exactly this. “We have maxed out the amount of money we can extract from people and have reached diminishing returns on profitability.”
Why can’t anyone just create a billion dollar company that makes something people like and then be happy they can consistently earn $200m per year? Maybe ask the people what kinds of features they want and improve the service to increase the value to users once you need something for your staff to do when the product is complete.
Transferred prompts? As in sent my prompts through my browser to be processed on computers in China, exactly like I would fucking expect? Am I going to have to read this fucking article?
Okay so there’s not much there, but it sounds like the issue is really associating personal data with the prompts so they can build a profile of exactly which kinds of porn I like. I assume every AI company is doing that, which is why I really like to keep my prompts outlandish.
I mean… Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Dracula, Fifty Shades of Grey—we aren’t even trying to keep it realistic.
I don’t fucking want personalized ads no matter how relevant they are to me. I only have so much money to buy stupid materialistic bullshit and once that’s gone all an ad can do is make me want something I can’t have. Ads are just trying to make you discontent.
They just want you to spend more money in a failed attempt to be happier adding complexity to my life when I’d rather just be content with simplicity. And they work really fucking well on my wife. I automatically distrust anything someone is paying money to show me.
If all humans wanted to end racism we wouldn’t need to because there wouldn’t be any. Insofar as some people are racist and you can’t control the actions of others, no one can end racism just by wishing it so.
I respect your color blindness and sense of equality, but I’m afraid this leans towards wishful thinking.
Same. I’m a Java developer at heart with extensive JS/CSS experience. This sounds at least worth checking out.
This sure as shit wasn’t the tone of her last campaign. She campaigned on things I support. I guess I didn’t notice what she wasn’t saying. Well, primary her or I’m still going to be stuck with voting for her.
I did like 4 different edits of that url and every time it started at 0. Just tested and it was right. Welp…
Apparently not on iOS because I tried exactly that.
Or maybe it did work and I just wasn’t testing it right.
The whole wedding scene was really good. Watching Mon toss back those drinks and basically embody the toast/speech her husband gave just the night before as she simply chooses joy in the face of bleak darkness.
They are currently trying to blackmail immigrants to self-deport. And apparently some citizens. They are also sanctioning employers of prominent public figures they don’t like (at least one law firm). They are blackmailing universities who don’t help oppress protestors. It’s a matter of perspective, but they are 100% using that data to threaten others to silence critics.
You could argue it on a technicality if you don’t like that definition of blackmail but it’s an apt enough word for colloquial use.
It’s the same reason that you have to pay more to stream videos without ads…
Then it sounds very much like what is happening is that once your system starts using the swap file because you are using more memory than you have available RAM, your slow HDD is causing the performance hit.
I would bet your two possible solutions are to increase the RAM (which will just mean you can do more stuff before you start hitting this performance bottleneck) or replace your HDD with an SSD. Give that it’s a pretty old laptop, I would bet your options for replacing the HDD are limited. As long as your RAM isn’t soldered in, you can probably just buy a compatible 16GB module and swap that right out.
You are right that coming together and accepting one another’s right to peacefully coexist is the moral thing to do, but as that is a practical impossibility I didn’t/don’t really credit it as a moral solution (failing the second word of the phrase, not the first).
But look, people way smarter than me have tried to crack this nut and failed. I guarantee it won’t take a lot of effort to poke holes in anything I could say about this. I have my thoughts but always tempered by the understanding that I have more ignorance than knowledge about the realities of that situation.
Defragging used to be necessary maintenance back in the day but I think ext4 generally handles it well and does defragging in the background automatically. But fragmentation can exist temporarily which is the only reason I brought it up.
Multitasking performance is generally a factor of system memory which at 8GB is pretty reasonable for Linux. Once you exceed that, you’ll use that swap file which I would expect would incur the same performance issues.
Eh. I disagree with both other commenters. It’s fine to use AI in your process, but the author’s voice is important. AI slop in and of itself lacks the context of the human experience to really understand humor. But it can come up with an idea that a human can improve on.
Up and down voting is the right solution here rather than banning. AI slop will get downvoted to oblivion, And even good AI content will be skewed more negatively than completely human art.
That all being said, if mods want to ban it based on preference go ahead and someone will likely just create a board where it’s allowed, and people can self-select what communities they want to be a part of.
