404 , in But this... does put a smile on my face

Some commenter asked why they were using Brave. I saved it to check out the answer later, because I was curious, but now I’ll never know :(

explodicle ,

Always real answer: they invested in BAT.

GeneralEmergency , in How often had I overlooked women's contributions ?

I am sure the comments on this meme community post in a niche social media site will not be filled with butthurt men’s rights activists.

Sotuanduso ,

You could have at least used the term “misogynist” so as to not imply that men’s rights are a bad thing.

Hey, we found one!

Not seriously, “men’s rights activists” are a specific group of people that only exist to complain about and hate women. They don’t care about men’s rights, they are anti-feminists.

If you genuinely didn’t know this, then I’d love to know what Internet rock You’ve been hiding under. If you’re trying to concern troll, fuck off, MRAs are fucking scum.

Quastamaza ,

Feels good to go with the flow, doesn’t it? And going for the audience’s applause? And while we’re at it, what are “women’s rights activists”, then? The undisputed incarnation of everything that is right and good in the world, I suppose?

You could have left this part off, it was perfectly clear you’re a man

Have my upvote!

Sotuanduso ,

I’ve definitely heard of misogynists, and of misogynists disguising themselves as legitimate men’s advocates, but I’d never heard of “men’s rights activists” as a specific group of misogynists before this.

Without this explanation, had someone said “men’s rights activists are misogynists,” I would have thought they were a misandrist, because it sounds like a general descriptor and not a specific group.

So what do you call it when someone who’s not a misogynist advocates for equal treatment in the areas where men get the short end of the stick?

candybrie ,

Generally, they’re described as part of the men’s liberation movement. The men’s movement split decades ago into men’s rights movement, which often comes at the issue from a more conservative premise that views feminism as going to far and eroding men’s rights, and the men’s liberation movement which generally is more liberal and wants to critically look at traditional masculinity and how those expectations may harm men.

Sotuanduso ,

Hmm, intuition implies the inverse. I would have guessed men’s liberation means “liberation from women” and thus misogyny. I guess unintuitive terminology is just the way things go.

IsoSpandy , in The Future of AI

And the problem is that since these dickwads want to close source their neural networks, we wasting billions of watts training on similar data sets repeatedly generating models with minor differences over and over again. If there was a truly awesome open source model, then we could train on top of it and create more complex and complex models targeted at the good of humankind. But no, stakeholders must get profits. When will they understand that the entire humanity is a stakeholder in this planet.

Good news is that open source approach appears to be advancing faster than closed models …medium.com/were-gonna-need-a-bigger-moat-478a8df…

Chinchillax ,

That article is from 10 months ago.
Is open source catching up still? Or have the goalposts moved too much since then?

yogthos OP ,
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

Open source models are still advancing quickly, pretty much everything the article mentions is still valid today.

gianni , in Apple

As an Android user, Android phones with Google Play Services are no better - in fact I’d say they’re probably worse

Stitch0815 ,

No at least you can side loade and install other app stores out of the box with android. It`s far from perfect but still way better.

thorbot , (edited )

News flash, you can do that on iOS too.

Edit: downvote away, my custom apps on my iPhone run great without jail breaking. Love all the wrong info on Lemmy. Good stuff.

flashgnash ,

Don’t you have to jailbreak to do that

thorbot , (edited )

Nope. You can install any app with developer license. You can also jailbreak. Don’t bother replying to this comment, I’ve read enough brain dead replies already.

Zangoose ,

Which costs an additional $100/yr for something that’s free on any other platform.

thorbot ,

Naw you can use a service like maplesign for $10

flashgnash ,

With developer license

Doesn’t seem fair to pay for the luxury of being able to install your own software

ReakDuck ,

Not really, no

thorbot ,

Okay! You’re wrong but that’s alright. I’m running custom apps on my device without jailbreaking.

Honytawk ,

Yeah, the customs apps, for which you pay a developer license for. Which need to be reinstalled every so often because Apple doesn’t want you to use apps like that.

They run so great though /s

The_Che_Banana ,

FDroid for open source apps.

Pantherina , in Think about it

¼ / ½ = ¼ • 2 = 2/4 = ½

xenoclast , in So far left you get your guns back.

It’s never been about left and right. It’s always been a war with the owner class and everyone else.

We occasionally forget; until everything falls apart and greed ruins everything. That’s when the fight starts again.

intensely_human ,

Perpetual war is a big feature of the society in 1984

walter_wiggles , in iPhone

Wut?

ursakhiin ,

There’s an app for that.

TheRealKuni ,

My guess is that this is from the era around 2008-2010 where everyone was making “there’s an app for that” jokes.

SilentStorms ,

Or their recent “iPhones save lives” thing they’ve been doing recently with the satellite connectivity.

wise_pancake ,

I don’t even know who I would bet on. Trump can’t use stairs and Biden seems more active but he’s at that age where you’re one fall away from a broken hip and becoming bedridden.

Anticorp ,

Biden would definitely fuck trump up in a fist fight. Trump can’t even drink water with one hand.

Quetzalcutlass ,

But Trump has more experience hurting politicians. Remember how he was a germophobe who famously refused to shake hands, until he realized he could use it as an excuse to put on a pathetic show of dominance?

nilloc ,

That’s when I really started liking Justin Trudeau. He was so much stronger that Trump and let everyone know it.

That one is cool and the one of Half-Life by quadrazid (segmented but still amazing)

Holy shit from 16 min on it’s absolute mayhem, also killing friendly npc’s to skip the cutscenes is hilarious.
