God, I hate things that pop when I pause to read something. Even the playback bar gets in the way sometimes, I don’t want to imagine ads

An Avalanche of Generative AI Videos Is Coming to YouTube Shorts (www.wired.com)

Eli Collins, a vice president of product management at Google DeepMind, first demoed generative AI video tools for the company’s board of directors back in 2022. Despite the model’s slow speed, pricey cost to operate, and sometimes off-kilter outputs, he says it was an eye-opening moment for them to see fresh video clips...

Goun ,

I guess the fun part is sharing them, there’s where youtube lives

Goun ,

Oh shit, seriously?? Why are you people posting ads to a scam??

Goun ,

What about magnetic tape? Isn’t it like super durable?

But that isn’t the job of the terminal, but the shell, isn’t it? I don’t know how they’d do that, but it feels like they’d have to assume a lot of stuff. On top of that, if you use multiplexers like tmux or embeded terminals like in emacs, for example, you’d most probably lose some of the features.

I don’t get how we need anything else than just a terminal that is fast, supports 256 colors (or true color, if you’re feeling fancy,) and changing the font.

Generative AI creates playable version of Doom game with no code (www.newscientist.com)

The model, called GameNGen, was made by Dani Valevski at Google Research and his colleagues, who declined to speak to New Scientist. According to their paper on the research, the AI can be played for up to 20 seconds while retaining all the features of the original, such as scores, ammunition levels and map layouts. Players can...

Goun ,

Unless you can monetize those 20 seconds like crazy

Goun ,

And they’re gonna charge money for that!

Goun ,

Yeah, and imagine being on Lemmy and people post ads for Instagram

other car manufacturers realized that would be detrimental to their business

Ummm do they? I don’t care enough about cars to remember the details, but I’m sure I’ve heard some controversies about safety for at least a couple of brands

Goun ,

I can’t even tell my tabs from my history, I only close stuff every now and then.

“Something has gone seriously wrong,” dual-boot systems warn after Microsoft update (arstechnica.com)

Last Tuesday, loads of Linux users—many running packages released as early as this year—started reporting their devices were failing to boot. Instead, they received a cryptic error message that included the phrase: “Something has gone seriously wrong.”...

Goun ,

No, they’re literally saying the same thing

Goun ,

So all afected people were potential targets?

Goun ,

I haven’t had any issues ever on stable.

How do I know if tinnitus is some sort of a placebo effect?

What if I am just imagining the high pitch sound in my mind whenever I hear about or think of tinnitus just like how someone tells you to imagine a whale and you form a mental image of a whale? I don’t pay attention to the noise while I’m busy doing stuff but once I think about it, it is as hard to stop noticing it similar...

Goun ,

I don’t know, I guess you can make it up, but that noise could be caused by fatigue, stress or plain lack of good sleep, in my experience.

It’s possible that you need to rest a bit. I’d suggest trying to note if you hear that more often when you’re tired.

In other hand, my gf has tinnitus and she finds it hard to hear anything that’s quiet, like if the sound was actually there. Maybe that’s another thing you could test, but I don’t really know how it works.

Goun ,

This is gonna be wild. Imagine a bot giving away pictures or information you sent in dms

Goun ,

Haven’t used neovim, but I had to try vim way too many times. I can’t use anything else now.

Goun ,

Wow, I’ve used a C920 and now a C930 and never had any issue, although I just do meetings.

I’m interested on seeing opinions too.

Goun ,

Ugly af, but it’s really good, I use it for organizing my ideas and tasks, and it’s perfect for what I need.

Goun ,

Honestly, I like it better ugly, but yeah, that’s a good tip, maybe I could try some

The anti-AI sentiment in the free software communities is concerning. (lemmy.world)

Whenever AI is mentioned lots of people in the Linux space immediately react negatively. Creators like TheLinuxExperiment on YouTube always feel the need to add a disclaimer that “some people think AI is problematic” or something along those lines if an AI topic is discussed. I get that AI has many problems but at the same...

Goun ,

I did not buy these gaming memory sticks for nothing, bring me more electron!

Goun ,

Systemd can manage containers!? TIL

Goun ,

We do use it! I download several Linux ISOs from bittorrent every week!

Is there any way to turn my Linux machine into a docking station?

The thing is like this: I have a windows laptop I use for work, and a Linux desktop machine. I have a single screen keyboard etc. and I switch between the two using a docking station. But, I wonder if there is a way for me to “cut the middle man” and just plug/unplug my linux machine....

Goun ,

Wow, TIL. Would it allow for another screen to be connected to it? That’d be pretty cool.

Goun ,

This is the only thing we should dream of

Goun ,

Delete all the bugs. Then you’ll have no code.

Goun ,

Shit, this is so weirdly interesting. Is it possible for you to explain how can an asexual person get aroused? I’d have imagined those things were kind of connected? Or is sex just a fetish we have but you don’t? How does this work?

Goun ,

giving me something for free

What are you talking about? It is not even “for free”, they get a lot value from the community.

They’re nothing without the users, it’s not that they would be making it if nobody uses it anyways. Users used to love them, they trusted them, they went on spreading their system, reported issues, created tutorials, flavors, videos, tools, and so on, they helped Cannonical become what it is now.

I don’t think they’re giving us anything “for free.”

Goun ,

This was where I rage quit. Who in the hell thought it was a good idea?

Goun ,

Can we have a search for xfce too, please?

Goun ,

Sorry, It was a low effort joke related to the search being specific to a window manager.

I’d like to have a timer on xfce (tried one a while ago and was broken af,) but I haven’t done an actual search.

Goun ,

Neat, I’ll try digging a bit more on that later. Thanks!

Goun ,

The country that’s not part of the rest of the world

Goun ,

Lol weren’t they claiming they support the two state solution literally a couple of days ago?

Goun ,

Well, this is interesting, thanks for sharing! I’ll check it out more deeply when I’m at the pc

Goun ,

for (i%1=0; i+2; int) odd++; cout(3)

Goun ,

Iirc (on the phone now,) cameractrls allows panning and zooming with a gamepad.

Goun ,

Weird, is it possible that it’s streaming a high quality version, but since you didn’t pay, it just plays half of it? I haven’t used apple stuff in years, so I’m too familiar with it anymore.

What happens when it stops playing, tho? Does it fail, stop or just go to the next song?

Looking for Cloud Storage Replacement, but I don't like NextCloud

I’m looking for something to replace cloud storage for myself and family. I’ve tried to use/like NextCloud but honestly I despise it. The UI/UX really bothers me, and administering it is a pain. It also just does way more that I want or need....

Goun ,

This. Syncthing is weird at first, but once you get it, it’s simply perfect! Simple, straightforward, decentralized and to the point.
