very nice analogy. I’m stealing it.

… long haul flight… mx blue…

I’m not sure if you’re joking but it’s hilarious either way.

kureta ,

I would only use VR in racing, flight sim, or space sim games. probably once a couple of months after the initial excitement.

kureta ,

Now I just want to make an account t to post AI generated dicks every hour.

Oof

Private Equity–Backed Firm Bowlero Is Ruining Bowling (jacobin.com)

For the most part, Bowlero doesn’t build its own centers. Instead, it purchases existing ones and makes them over in the Bowlero style: dim lights, loud music, expensive cocktails. At Bowleros, bowling isn’t bowling. It’s “upscale entertainment.”...

kureta ,

So we are done with "Millenials are ruining [INDUSTRY]? Thank god.

That is why Microsoft spent a total of gazillion dollars to have its OS pre-installed on all PCs. We need more PCs with Linux pre-installed. This should be an antitrust issue but I am not knowledgeable enough to say how.

How dare you! It’s not self-hosting. It clearly says “GIGAFACTORY OF COMPUTE”

‘My whole library is wiped out’: what it means to own movies and TV in the age of streaming services (www.theguardian.com)

*What rights do you have to the digital movies, TV shows and music you buy online? That question was on the minds of Telstra TV Box Office customers this month after the company announced it would shut down the service in June. Customers were told that unless they moved over to another service, Fetch, they would no longer be...

kureta ,

Stop trying to make fetch happen!

Before Gaben, there was only vapour. He invented, nay, created steam.

But, and there is a big BUT here, you can’t copy someone elses brand. You can’t put someone elses name on it and sell a product without asking for permission first.

Yes. That is also how I see it. Plagiarism is immoral, copying/replicating/altering is just natural. Has been the norm for millenia. That’s how art, science, and engineering, frankly, the entirity of human culture developed.

kureta ,

that is only a subset of machine learning

kureta ,

open standards and interoperability should be the law.

kureta ,

They might be a sith.

kureta ,

easy there champion. you’ll pop a blood vessel.

kureta ,

is this real? I can’t tell anymore.

N900 and Maemo were already awesome. There was absolutely no need to rewrite the entire operating system. Damn I am still angry.

kureta ,

I really couldn’t find a better way to describe how it feels to use gnome. I am used almost all tiling window managers through the years. I always got lost in configuring my setup. I know I didn’t have to, but there was almost another step of optimization that was available to me. This is not a bad thing in and of itself, of course. I have been using gnome o arch for the past few years, a plank/dock extension, a system tray, and a clipboard manager. That’s it, there is nothing to fiddle with, to distract me. It is entirely personal. I just can’t stop myself from trying to optimize my desktop/workflow if there are still ways to optimize it. Before gnome I was using my WM/DE and then the applications necessary for my actual work. Now, the DE is “out of the way” and I just do what I actually have to do. But again, this is entirely personal.

kureta ,

touch file && chmod +x file is good but this here is the one true command for the purpose.

kureta ,

As many people have already said, just do what you need to do. That’s the best way to learn. But if you are afraid you’ll break your system with dangerous commands, use docker or a virtual machine for practice.

kureta ,

not Linux but some open-source software with premium features that have menu items with diamond icons or something like that pointing to those features. you cannot hide the menu items and it keeps sending you notifications to subscribe to an annual license.

Apenix

And this sounds like nix for apes 🐵

kureta ,

it’s not even a little bit more complicated than that. They are literally trained to predict the next token given a series of previous tokens. The way that they do that is very complicated and the amount of data they are trained on is huge. That’s why they have to give correct information sometimes to sound plausible. Providing accurate information is literally a side effect of the actual thing they are trained to do.

kureta ,

Yep. I want a reasonable amount of money for a reasonable amount of work. I have a life outside work, which seems incomprehensible to employers nowadays.

kureta ,

exact point is probably empty. so much of matter is just empty space.

kureta ,

Also the most correct :)

kureta ,

Perfect summary 10/10

kureta ,

investigative journalism at its best.

kureta ,

Humans vibrate the air in different and complicated ways. One vibration pattern humans like, another vibration pattern they don’t like. sure this “speech” thing is really complicated. also symbols squibbled on surfaces. language, am I right?

kureta ,

But why? It is bad for babies OK, but what is the upside for Nestlé? Is it addiction?

kureta ,

You are the one true scotsman

Fairbuds are Fairphone’s proof that we really could make better tiny gadgets (arstechnica.com)

But of course we all know that the big manufacturers don’t do this not because they can’t but because they don’t want to. Planned obsolescence is still very much the name of the game, despite all the bullshit they spout about sustainability.

kureta ,

And standards. EU please enforce standards and interoperability, and open APIs.

kureta ,

Also the story of almost all Hollywood romcoms.

kureta ,

If you start seeing canaries everywhere in your coal mine, chances are you have a lethal gas leak. wait what?

kureta ,

And that’s why you also surround it with double quotes.

kureta ,

And not being always reachable by phone. If you are out, there was simply no way to reach you. Good times.

kureta ,

There are lots of ways computers are used for making art. Not just video-games. For example, projection mapping, algorithmic music composition, live coding, etc.

You can look into openFrameworks for examples of C++ in arts.

kureta ,

This was the first serious creative coding framework I’ve learned 2008 or 2010 or something. I have been in this field since then. I have seen Java, Javascript, and kotlin creative frameworks but not python and I am still as surprised as you are.

    I have a 2011 MacBook pro with Arch Linux on it as part of my make shift homelab. It’s a good feeling to revive these things.

    Final. season was really interesting I that regard. Real cop propaganda is The Rookie. It is shameless.

    kureta ,

    I’ve always had problems with ssh on kitty.

    kureta ,

    I know. I still had problems even when I used that. I don’t see why are there problems at all? Why doesn’t alacritty have the same problem?

    kureta ,

    I am running arch on a 2011 MacBook pro. so, probably. Even if you don’t plan on using arch, the wiki has all the info to get you started.

    kureta ,

    I know about Aç and volume controls. I hope the rest are not (yet) on touch screens.
