@Carighan@lemmy.world avatar

Despite not originally being a fan of Sailor Moon, I’ve come around to it slowly after constantly having it on as my sis was watching it. It’s actually very very good and well done. The differences in translation are also always a funny aspect.

Matriks404 , to linux in What file systems are you using on your devices and why?
  • Btrfs on my laptop with openSUSE, mainly because it’s default, but also for its snapshot capabilities.
  • Whatever file system my default Raspberry Pi installation uses (probably Ext4).
  • NTFS on my main computer With Windows 10, because… well… I don’t really have any other choice, although I know there’s some kind of 3rd party Btrfs driver for Windows as well and you can ever have boot partition formatted as Btrfs, but I think it’s still experimental.
Kolanaki , to til in TIL the Japanese words 青 (ao) and 青い (aoi) can refer to either blue or green depending on the situation.
@Kolanaki@yiffit.net avatar

What most of the resources Im using to learn Japanese have taught me is that it’s a very context sensitive language. The same words can have different meanings or spellings just depending on how they are being used. It can be really confusing at times when learning a “new” word that is the same as a previous word, but now it has a different meaning because it’s using it differently or spelling it differently.

There’s also levels of politeness that change how you might say the same phrase, depending on who you’re saying it to. All I know, so far, is the super professional polite way of saying anything; but nothing I watch to immerse myself in the language uses that form, so even phrases I can understand sound a bit different than how I had learned the phrases.

nickiam2 , to linux in What file systems are you using on your devices and why?

I use ext4 for all boot drives and root filesystems. Anything really important goes on a ZFS array. And for my Linux isos, I use a drive with ext4 + snapraid. The parity drive has xfs because ext4 has a 16tb file size limit.

Got rid of anything NTFS as it was unreliable and slow on Linux.

soundconjurer , to linux in What file systems are you using on your devices and why?

@Psyhackological
Work stations all run Ext4.
Main server: Ext4 on main partition, ZFS RAIDZ2 on the data.
Secondary server: BTRFS on main, BTRFS RAID1 on data.

If BTRFS could natively encrypt and had stable RAID6, I'd be using it probably on everything.

Shimitar , to linux in What file systems are you using on your devices and why?

Ext4 on every Linux device.

Ah i dont have any other kind of devices (android on mobile, but there I have no choices on fs)

Why not btrfs? Don’t know, been using what has kept working flawlessly for me for the last 20+ years, no need to replace ext4.

menemen , (edited ) to asklemmy in Greensleeves is almost 500 years old. I'm sure there were other very popular songs when it came out, but Greensleeves had to staying power to still be here. What do you think is today's Greensleeves?
@menemen@lemmy.world avatar

Imo Greensoeeves mostly endured because it can be perfectly whistled by everyone and still be played by professional musicians in a way that awes the audience.

This will probably not be th reason why current songs will stay arround. If society doesn’t break down, I assume that every popular melody, be it from the US, China or Lebanon, will stay around and get reused every ~30 years to grab some quick money.

In theory, yes. I realize it probably won’t work, but it’s a momentary copy and paste, so it’s a low hanging fruit to give it a try, just in case it does work.

IANAL, but I think its the citation stuff that would have to obeyed, which is far as I know bots today never give citation of where they’re modeling from when they post comments, so I’m hoping since they’re not citing they’d stop using.

I saw somebody else doing it, I figured it couldn’t hurt, one copy and paste and I’m done.

Typically the citation is included with the software, possibly linked from a site / service and/or included in their dataset repo (e.g. on huggingface.co)

CosmicCleric , (edited )
@CosmicCleric@lemmy.world avatar

True, but they still have to cite my name, and I’m not sure they’re going to name every person that they use every one of their comments to train their models from.

Granted it relies on them honoring the license, but still easy thing to try.

pennomi ,

I get the sentiment but wouldn’t you WANT an AI to be trained on your own words? That would make the AI more favorable to your points of view. By self-censoring you effectively let everyone else in the world decide the direction AI goes.

intensely_human , to asklemmy in Can I detect my SO's presence just by smell / pheromone ?

Yes. It is well established by both subjective experience and science that humans can identify other humans by scent.

It’s also established by science that even the subliminally-detected presence of non-unique chemicals will alter people’s behavior. People say that’s not a “pheromone” but I disagree.

GreyEyedGhost ,

Looks like you read the title and not the included text. You could find your SO in a crowd by smell alone? I don’t think so. Being able to identify your partner by smell if they’re standing in front of you, sure, I can buy that.

paddirn , to til in TIL Nokia has owned Bell Labs since 2016, and still does a lot of Telecom stuff

My Dad worked for Alcatel-Lucent when they got bought out by Nokia, which is when I found out it’s apparently pronounced “Noy-kia” and not “No-kia” like I thought it was for the longest (or else my Dad was just mispronouncing it). I’m sure there was some big changes he saw, but he pretty much worked from home the entire time, so it wasn’t a big transition that we saw, he just did the same old job, though I think they did move their actual offices from the East side of town to the North-west. He worked with them up until 2019 when he retired.

hemko ,

I’d think it’s obvious it’s not pronounced like an English word, since it’s Finnish brand named after a city in Finland…?

TheTetrapod ,

TIL Nokia isn’t Japanese.
