Hi! If you know about the massive violations of privacy we are experiencing on the internet right now and choose to not even say anything about them, you are a part of the problem. Have a nice day <3

plus it has the added benefit of ;making websites which are not littered with javascript and are reliant on that slop to even load the site. (helps when creating onions too)

can you feel the

Generative Al is being marketed as a tool designed to reduce or eliminate the need for developed, cognitive skillsets. It uses the work of others to simulate human output, except that it lacks grasp of nuance, contains grievous errors, and ultimately serves the goal of human beings being neurologically weaker due to the promise of the machine being better equipped than the humans using it would ever exert the effort to be. The people that use generative Al for art have no interest in being an artist; they simply want product to consume and forget about when the next piece of product goes by their eyes. The people that use generative Al to make music have no interest in being a musician; they simply want a machine to make them something to listen to until they get bored and want the machine to make some other disposable slop for them to pass the time with. The people that use generative Al to write things for them have no interest in writing. The people that use generative Al to find factoids have no interest in actual facts. The people that use generative Al to socialize have no interest in actual socialization. In every case, they've handed over the cognitive load of developing a necessary, creative human skillset to a machine that promises to ease the sweat equity cost of struggle. Using generative Al is like asking a machine to lift weights on your behalf and then calling yourself a bodybuilder when it's done with the reps. You build nothing in terms of muscle, you are not stronger, you are not faster, you are not in better shape. You're just deluding yourself while experiencing a slow decline due to self-inflicted atrophy.

re: generative AI

I have finally fully and accurately explained my problem with how it’s marketed and used.

And now, you can use it, too.

god damn how long has that thing been in there holy shit lol

W for airwindows

and for me it's my brain forgetting where a passage from a song is from and i have to physically go through ALL my shit to find *where* that passage is just so that my brain can stfu about it. also linux and sonic (particularly the movies).

i think it's more so the separate methods of it that are gaining discussion (like ringmod sidechain for example)

and also hear their stories of booting to Linux on the school laptops in their free time to do things like create keygen music

my 2tb nvme literally shaking seeing me look at kontakt libraries even though i already have 250 gigs worth of em (500 gigs free on that sucker yes i'm a hoarder)

and here's the real kicker i barely use even 2 libraries :sob:

TRUE i remember having a dreeam playing left 4 dead with 2 mice wher i could control the 2 pistols independently nad it was raw af, plus having 2 contrasting cursor themes would be sick af

hard

some people think it does a little too much than what it's worth (it's become a bit more than an init system) but tbh i'm fine with it, only problems i have with it are long shutdowns (and looking into it i see it's more of a thing with sddm than systemd, sddm-git seems to solve it but i'm lazy)

one good thing that comes out of it are the graphical illustrations, they at least look good. anyways just my autistic ass screaming into the void about sudden changes to shittier uis.

just got the discord ui yesterday and immediately reverted back to the old ui. i bet they got the mobile design team to do the design for this ui, text chat input border's obnoxiously big, profile status bar conflicts with the server list, and the overly round design makes me want to close the app

The same abstract curved wireframed object in a golden material, this time with contrasting red and blue lighting providing some interesting shades and color mixtures. (also took way longer to render than i thought lol)

yea it's nice, was playing around in blender and well came up with these (2nd one took longer than i thought to render, only 1 bounce on those 2 lights)

girl rotting

yeah i miss pages as well. with more websites would include them

Good thing you're using rsync! Amazing tool.

*me when i move something metal or i just see cauatics in general* damn those caustics tho (once you see them they're basically everywhere lol)

yeah i heard about that and i was like "bruv dafuq were you thinking". some people are just stuck in 2013 i guess

yeah hyprland looks nice but eh i'm more of a windows knockoff guy myself (currently rocking dracula theme on my new pc with a more customised purple as accent color and tweaked titlebar color to match, looks very nice imo)
