Anyone who uses a Meta product, at this point, and thinks they have free speech, privacy, and/or ownership of their data either just joined the internet or is choosing to stay ignorant of the lengthy and growing list of abuses—abuses that are core to their business model.

Seems fair to me to ask for help paying for costs, especially if you’re some kind of business that regularly uses the service.

This is not just “using the internet,” though. AI use ≠ finding some conspiracy-fueled rant on some long-forgotten message board. ChatGPT does not scour the internet or have any sort of meaningful sanity checks on the pattern of words it generates. It doesn’t “know” what it’s saying, nor does it “care.”

If he had done even the most basic of generic internet searches, he would have discovered the DASH diet.

The inclusion of this goober’s use of AI is yet another example why using what is essentially a reinforcement and pattern-generation engine is one of the dumbest things a person can do. It doesn’t seem to matter how many experts remind people of its limitations, so all that remains is pointing out every time somebody does something stupid, so people can at least get a reminder that the other end of the conversation is dumber than they are and only an illusion of intelligence.

What do you mean, “if you make a backdoor, anyone can use it?” How can that be possible, when AI was the one that wrote the codebase for it?

Big tech never had net-zero goals. They had PR campaigns, and they no longer have to pretend they care, because AI is the potential payday they’re putting all their effort into making a reality.

If it weren’t for regulation and financial incentives from governments, they wouldn’t have done almost any of what little they have.

You have to create a second partition or use a Virtual Machine. Look for dual booting instructions, if you want to install alongside your current distro.

It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday […] it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.

I hate how words don’t mean anything to these people, and their shitbrained followers eat it up.

You can find the video interview. I’ll spoil it for you: He didn’t say he would prefer the human race endure following that very concerning pregnant pause. Rather, he hemmed and hawed.

Thiel isn’t just a transhumanist, he’s an accelerationist, and he has a fuckton of money.

Somebody should check their PCs and internet history; after all, name a better duo than Conservatives and Projection.

Wanted to mention that you should be able to find the EP on Spotify and YouTube Music now, as well, if you prefer one of those.

Look for “threaded inserts,” probably something with a coarse thread. These will give you a mounting point for machine screws.

If you’re worried about using just the four provided bolts (I would be), use multiple inserts or regular screws to attach a board at multiple points, then use the inserts on the board.

So glad you liked it! I’m just a fan, but they’re seriously my favorite band recently, and if you cared to do so, I know they would appreciate kind words. They’re 100% indie and supported by the community, and they love it when people love the art they make! They also have a Discord, if that’s your jam.

For what it’s worth, downvotes don’t show up on my instance, so people can downvote all they like, and I’ll never know the difference. Maybe they didn’t like that I cross-posted in multiple places so more people could see it. I dunno.

Anyway, enjoy the EP!

Bruh, as an American, have y’all (politicians) learned nothing from our slide into authoritarianism? JFC, you can practically see the fingers of clandestine fascists pulling the strings to make you (politicians) dance.

Veela also streams on Twitch, so if you want to watch a professional make music live, it’s a fun community (she also simultaneously streams on YouTube, but the YouTube delay is really far behind Twitch).

Ironically, they’re still wrong, because even in their wildest conspiracies, they didn’t imagine Wi-Fi could be used to “take pictures” of a sort.

You might be a little high, but you still did the funny.

No. I don’t have any studies on hand, but the data that I’m aware of says that stevia is one of the small few that actually helps your gut biome. However, too high of a quantity can lead to other issues (I think related to the heart).

And REPO.

Bazzite isn’t just modified Fedora, it’s based on Fedora Atomics, like Silverblue and Kinoite. If OP isn’t even sure about which distro to use, tossing them into the world of ostree might be a little much, since a lot of the online advice doesn’t take immutable systems into account. The Discord community they have is helpful, though, and there’s more than a few users here on Lemmy who use it, who I’m sure would be willing to help.

Nobara is just modified Fedora, however, and it’s also nice.

Pop is great, but I wouldn’t currently recommend it, since they’re putting 99.9% of their effort into Cosmic. I have heard longtime users mention how certain packages and updates are behind, and while they’re willing to wait, I wouldn’t want to put that upon somebody new.

Not a bad recommendation in general, but just my two cents about the current state of things.
