As a new grad, I honestly feel like AI output is worse. It gets stuff wrong pretty frequently and even I, as a new grad, at least know enough to notice when it is wrong. These days I don’t use it at all, cause reading the docs is faster and also more accurate (and also cause of all the other issues with AI too).

Execs are desperate to get a return on their investment into AI, which is the only reason they push it so hard, and eventually the slop is gonna blow up in their faces.

One thing I noticed is that a lot of AI “art” is shiny and colorful, which looks appealing to people who know nothing about art. Specifically with DLSS5 I saw some people saying they liked it because of how shiny it made things. Have they never experienced reality before? Since when is everything super shiny? Also you really do not at all need AI to make a material more shiny or colorful. That can be done already very easily and it was the artists’ choice to not do that because they know what they’re doing.

If you’re on your parents’ insurance they’d be able to see what you use it for, but otherwise your medical information is confidential and they shouldn’t be able to see anything. And if you are on your parents’ insurance, you could pay out of pocket to avoid them seeing it on the explanation of benefits.

It was graffitied on a bridge. I liked it so I took it.

Native English. Did 5 years of French in highschool. I picked it back up recently and have been focusing more on colloquial French.

😿 I did too, but ultimately I don’t think I would have been able to handle it so I backed out.

Same!!! Spent 6 months looking for CS jobs and I’ve now given up and will probably soon be working as a cashier. I will still be doing game dev in my spare time though, which is what I’d much rather be doing than software dev. Maybe it’s not so bad (massive copium).

My biggest pet peeve is people who scalp their lawns and spray shit all over it to make it green and kill the bugs. If it didn’t kill the buggies 'n stuff I wouldn’t care so much but I’d still think it’s dumb cause all they need to do is not mow so aggressively and plant some clover to fix the nitrogen. Like their lawn needs less maintenance not more. Stop fucking spraying shit all over your lawn please AAAAAAAAAAAAAA.

I am using 148.0.2-2. It appears as a little key icon in the address bar and you have to click on it to open it.

That’s strange. I just tested it on my machine and it is still working so there must be something weird going on that makes it only work for some people. I am using Debian and have it installed with extrepo, perhaps it is an issue with a specific release?

I use the latest version. I also have resist fingerprinting disabled and sync enabled. It’s been a while so I don’t quite remember but I think one or both of those might be required for it to work. I know resist fingerprinting disables a lot of stuff so for convenience I disable it and instead use a JS blocker.

You can turn it on in settings. I use it and it works fine.

Immigrants are not at all to blame for the housing crisis. It absolutely is 100 million percent rich people’s fault for it. Immigrants build houses. Rich people buy multitudes and horde them.

There is no generation limit so you could go back to your great great greats or later if you wanted. I have quite a few great great grandparents who were born in Quebec and I’m gonna go for it.

For people born after Dec 15, 2025 there is a requirement for a parent to have been in Canada for a while, but I don’t know how many babies are using Lemmy and reading this.

The Latehomecomer.

It’s a memoir about a woman who was born in a Thai refugee camp during the Secret War who immigrated to Minnesota and became an author.

I highly recommend it. It’s one of my favorites.

To be fair, I don’t go out much, but that’s partly because I’m in the middle of nowhere and there’s like nothing out here. On dating apps the men I see pretty much always have their political views set to conservative or moderate.

I did go to a bar in the cities once and I did meet a guy I liked there but nothing ever came of it. I do get the impression that men in the cities are likely much better than where I live, but I haven’t spent much time in the cities though.

I am also thinking about when I was in highschool, specifically a yeehaw highschool, and my impression was that most guys would rather eat crayons than pay attention in class. Those guys also had loser flags on their trucks despite us being in a northern union state, and there were a lot of them. Though I did have some guy friends who were chill, I felt like they were in the minority.

I think I just figured out why I can’t decide if I’m pansexual or finsexual. It’s because so many masculine looking guys my age are assholes, so my brain just assumes that all masculine looking guys my age must be assholes, so I’ve been nearly entirely turned off to all masculine looking guys. I know that good men exist, but it seems like they are few and far between so I tend to just avoid men altogether unless they are gender nonconforming. So basically I’ve limited myself to femboys and wlw, but I would date a masculine looking guy if he happened to be one of the few who aren’t assholes, it’s just that they’re hard to find.

I also live in a small rural area though, so there’s probably a higher percentage of misogynistic assholes here compared to the cities but idk.

Good idea. I reread the page on the Canadian government’s website and seems like there’s no limit as long as you were born before December 15, 2025, unless I read it wrong.

I’d like to move to Canada and my great great grandfather was born in Quebec. I assume that means it doesn’t apply to me, however from the article you linked it should apply to my father, which makes me wonder if there’s somehow something he could do to have it apply to me as well?

One of my favorites is dog-house.neocities.org. It has a flying puppy that follows your cursor around!
