At some point, I think people will pray for nuclear war, because life will be so miserable.

Reminds me of Roll out the Fallout by The Chalkeaters

I think it might still be EU-only? That said, it’s still a lot of work to get their engine working and hooked up on iOS, so no idea if and when that might happen.

If it’s that vital, surely you would do it to yourself?

You can’t really do the kind of experiments being done genetically modifying growing infants on yourself, I imagine. Not that that should be an excuse, of course.

A three years old apparently male child was referred to Anhui Provincial hospital with a complaint of undifferentiated external genitalia.

It might just be that that’s what they’re registered as, or how parents referred to them, I guess?

I imagine some instances might ban users for upvoting certain things, you know…

No, the point is… It might be obvious you’re using that specific browser, since it’d be very niche, and combined with something like your IP and maybe something like browsing patterns that might be enough to identify you.

It doesn’t matter how much fingerprinting information you hide if you replace it with new information that’s just as useful.

I don’t know from experience, but I’ve seen mentions of it taking serious work, including dealing with CP content being uploaded (federated?) to random instances…

Not a meme, but relevant https://youtu.be/-ZNoNHk8lbQ

The issue is, plants do that by combining water and CO2 into energetic compounds, with an oxygen byproduct - then they do the same our bodies do, which is breaking up those energetic compounds using oxygen to release the stored energy. And yes, plants consume oxygen and produce CO2 - they just do more of the opposite turning the excess into structural materials.

This requires a supply of energy in a form that can be consumed (laws of physics prevent you doing it by cooling your body down), so you’d need to, for example, receive enough energy from sunlight to match your energy consumption, and generating oxygen through that would actively make you fatter.

Oh, and as an addendum, we could maybe use less oxygen to break up those energetic compounds, similarly to how fuel can burn with reduced oxygen - but the fun thing about that is, that produces carbon monoxide, actual poison, so that’s also a no-go.

Eh, the criticism isn’t invalid - those are still ads being added on the front page. What does irk me is people talking about how something breaks their workflow, yet they don’t even try to fix the issue.

You can disable sponsored shortcuts on the homepage settings, if that’s what it’s referring to

Funnily, Connect sure hides those spoilers… But it does so by blanking them out, so they take up the same amount of space… Or they would, but embeds are also rendered as (uninteractible) plaintext in spoilers.

Not complaining about your post, it’s Connect that’s being different, but it does make the usage of spoilers useless for me.

I think the reasoning for this is that ultimately it’s not relevant - the mods don’t want to point fingers at the admin claiming bad behavior, they just don’t want their community moderated in a certain way and let the admin continue doing what they’re doing elsewhere. From that point of view, bringing up specific disagreements would only stir up unnecessary drama to a topic that’s basically already resolved, detracting from the real issue at hand of how to move forward.

I don’t think I’d agree about it being negligible, but I think that’s ultimately subjective, so fair enough. I get the impression a lot of Bun’s own library are nicer to use equivalents of libraries present in Node, but I think even that is significant for anybody looking to write new code.

By your logic, Bun has no right to exist because it only supports Node.js APIs and doesn’t have its own APIs

I don’t know much on the topic, but I know I used Bun a bit for some scripts, and it most certainly does have its own APIs, so that’s incorrect.

Just for context, minetest was recently renamed to Luanti, which is why the website url and downloads say that.

NSFW is probably a matter of instance and preferences (not sure if filtering NSFW might be enabled by default)

But star trek? What the hell? That seems to be one of the largest communities on the entire platform, and with high quality content and lots of interaction, how did you not see it? Is your instance defederated or something?

Pretty sure what you’re describing isn’t floating-point numbers, but fixed-point numbers… Which would also work just as well or better in most cases where floats are used.

From the very first video in glorious… Was it 240p? Well, since the very early days he’s had this great vibe of an edutainment program with the host being a metallic alien with holograms and stuff, and it’s definitely part of the appeal. You claim he could get more followers by dropping the whole gimmick, but I have to question how many regular viewers he might lose if he stops it.

I don’t think this is a realistic proposal - this is a technological advancements. You might be able to force companies to put invisible steganographic signatures in their services’ output, maybe provide some method for hashing the output to provide a way to determine if an image was generated by them…

But what’s stopping them from using the underlying model on the side, off the books. They could sell/leak the model to external entities. If they just generate outputs without any watermarks, those systems won’t be able to detect them, potentially only lending more legitimacy to those fakes.

And, ultimately, nothing’s stopping independent organizations from developing their own models capable of generating such fakes. What help is it that big companies are limited, if the technology needed to generate images is already known, and might end up easily reproducible by anybody sooner than later?

That said, individual instances of such illegal/immoral services should be dealt with - it’s horrible, but I believe those are inevitable. Pandora’s box has been opened by creating the technology, it was going to happen sooner or later, and we have to deal with the results.
