Their logos are always great. Took a class on Vulcan in college and managed to snag one of these https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/d4d63915-2544-4f53-9256-2a4a870607b4.jpeg.

Should probably wear it more often but it was probably too big for me even at the time

Another one I found: https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/eaf970d4-b54a-477e-80bb-07845990d310.pngWhich is just this I think medium.com/…/re-can-i-drink-this-delicious-soundi…

Granted I’m baiting it and it does say not to drink it.

Why is this news

sxt ,

I believe version 555 of the Nvidia driver is supposed to get the explicit sync patch.

All I had to do was remove one field to do with docker swarm which I don’t think I was using anyway.

Been gaming on nixos for a month or two and haven’t had any issues AFAICT

Worth considering holding onto the Nvidia card to do a vfio windows VM as a fallback for stuff that doesn’t run well through wine/proton. It wasn’t too hard to setup and its nice to just toss all the games with kernel anticheat/adobe shit into.

I just learned that the Time Cube is no more. (lemmy.world)

Some of you may remember this absolute diamond of insanity that was the “4-Day Time Cube.” This was the go-to example of the internet as a universal amplifier for communication - for both the sane and insane alilke. It was there from nearly the start of the world-wide web, back in the 1990’s. Alas, it ceased to be some...

Will always remember “try my bellybutton logic” or whatever tf it was

I wanted to try Ubuntu on a live disk back in highschool (~2012) but ended up wiping the drive on my laptop. Had to ask a friend who knew Linux for help so I could actually use it. That was eventually followed by debian and Manjaro. Later I tried arch on my desktop, got tired of that and switched back to windows for a few years. I’ve been running nixos for a while now and have been really enjoying it.

I use it with gnome on nixos without any problems AFAICT. Had the explicit sync issue with Nvidia initially but I ended up buying an rx6800 to use as the host GPU when I set up win11 with KVM. Been completely fine since.

I feel like portal 2 can get by on a playthrough every so many years based on the writing/VA making it enjoyable even if you half remember the puzzles.

Google apologizes for ‘missing the mark’ after Gemini generated racially diverse Nazis (www.theverge.com)

Google apologizes for ‘missing the mark’ after Gemini generated racially diverse Nazis::Google says it’s aware of historically inaccurate results for its Gemini AI image generator, following criticism that it depicted historically white groups as people of color.

Part of the problem with talking about these things in a casual setting is that nobody is using precise enough terminology to approach the issue so others can actually parse specifically what they’re trying to say.

Personally, saying the AI “knows” something implies a level of cognizance which I don’t think it possesses. LLMs “know” things the way an excel sheet can.

Obviously, if we’re instead saying the AI “knows” things due to it being able to frequently produce factual information when prompted, then yeah it knows a lot of stuff.

I always have the same feeling when people try to talk about aphantasia or having/not having an internal monologue.

Are we? Hadn’t heard. Nobody is really calling each other in the first place anyway

Also, it’s not like the gameplay was mind bogglingly terrible, just some bland questing and a serviceable combat system. The main thing the game had to do to sell well imo was sell the environment and vibe which I think it did decently.

I love Vivaldi but it definitely chugs with the stupid amount of hibernated tabs I’ve got. The new sessions thing helped alleviate that a bit since I can save a window state and close it but I definitely run into some kind of memory leak with it. (I have had like 1k+ hibernated tabs open, so not entirely unexpected that it runs into issues but I’d still think if they’re hibernated they should just be stubbed out tabs in memory until clicking one turns it into a full browser process. Idk)

Issues forwarding traffic through a wireguard connection

I am attempting to follow this procustodibus.com/…/wireguard-port-forward-from-i… to forward traffic from a few ports on a public oracle vps to other ports on my local server through a wireguard connection. Currently I am doing this using rinetd, but I was looking for a more normal way of forwarding traffic. (Also looking to...

I went with this www.silverstonetek.com/en/product/info/…/cs382/. It’s pretty decent but you are putting a hard cap on expansion. Also the fans it comes with are pretty loud so I’d replace them.

    Have a Hiby r3 pro. I work from home so not a lot of reasons to use it normally but it is nice to bring on trips

    They really named the missiles “attack 'ems” huh

    The movie makes it pretty clear what they were going for at the end too.

    sxt , (edited )

    I definitely think it would do a fantastic job of baiting out reactions and listening to what someone has to say about it after would probably clue you in on what stood out to them about it. Obviously none of these types of tests can be conclusive, but I’d say if someone came out of the theater super angry then that’s pretty telling of something at least. A good starting point for further discussion with that person.

    On the whole I thought the movie was hilarious and had a very compassionate message for men at the end of the movie as well.

    My biggest issue after watching it has just been having to see braindead takes from people online, swinging in both directions. Lots of “the movie hates men” types but I’ve also seen a few “DAE, men bad?” tier takes as well which is a bit disheartening.
