i think the only way Linux is increasing it’s market share beyond fringe enthusiasts (that’s us) is by more devices coming with it pre-installed. expecting anyone outside of the tech space to change the operating system their device came with is a pipe dream

the world is hard and kids need to be taught about us in a controlled environment like a school.

i just… harming the cultural artifacts is damaging to all of humanity. they should be targeting the people responsible more directly first. target their houses and their boats and them personally. target their families and the people around them. target the art they own…

hell, the same group does do things that hit the appropriate targets. i just don’t think they’re going the right direction with the art protests specifically.

the article is right, this isn’t going to change anyone’s mind one way or the other. it’s not going to affect the minds of oil execs. the most it might do is increase the donations to the police that guard the art. it is at Best, mildy counterproductive.

the most it will do is piss everyone off. everyone is already mad, this is just making it worse.

it’s destroying our common heritage. the history that we can see on front of us. to learn from where we came and see how we can progress.

idk, it still feels like a fucked up thing to target. why not like… their houses?

don’t replace it if it still works. that would completely defeat the intent of being environmentally friendly. getting rid of it entirely just makes it someone else’s problem. it will still exist somewhere and still be breaking down.

if it’s breaking down and needs to be replaced anyway because it’s a decade old then ignore me lol.

i still don’t see how pointing out the circumstances of their birth is so relevant to discussions about their later political achievements.

maybe bottom middle then somewhere between those two

i still remembe needing to wait literal hours at the gate every damn time. we were never even close to late. they were always panicking. i don’t understand it…

it’s not just parents either. some people are just like that when they travel. I’ve tried going places with friends that made it absolutely miserable as an adult because they were fucking panicking the whole time until we sat on the plane. i swear some people have never dealt with a deadline before or something. don’t know how to deal with a clock ticking down i guess.

no, they just replaced the normal tools with ai-enhanced versions and are labeling everything like that now.

ai noise reduction should not get this tag.

there’s a lot more than generative fill.

ai denoise, ai masking, ai image recognition and sorting.

hell, every phone is using some kind of “ai enhanced” noise reduction by default these days. these are just better versions of existing tools than have been used for decades.

yeah, i use Lightroom ai de-noise all the time now. it’s just a better version of a tool that already existed. and once that every phone does by default anyway.

yeah, the idea didn’t take off until the previous generation of doctors died. it’s a fact that often both encourages and discourages me.

even doctors were too stubborn to accept they may have been wrong about something so important, no matter the evidence. however, even those that are so stubborn that they’ll take it to the grave will eventually be passed up by a new generation who has known of this idea since before they were born. at worst, this kind of stubbornnes is only likely to stall progress for 2 generations.

still, millions of people died because humans are stubborn.

maybe we shouldn’t blame the victim, but we should probably help them escape.

yeah, but they would be better able to put an rma through for you. it is kind of on them to guarantee a working product actually. if the manufacturer gave them a faulty product it’s up to them to get the manufacturer to fix it. most retailers have an entire system and process for this kind of stuff. things show up to retailers broken all the time. part of their job is to guarantee against that and deal with it if they fail to before you buy it. if you asked them to replace it with a like model that worked or for them to initiate an rma and they refused then you’d be in the right to issue a chargesback.

some said i was destined to be a doctor with my handwriting and family. i decided to break the cycle and become a videographer that barely scrapes by. my family is… they like the videos i make of our get togethers…

at least i haven’t accidentally killed anyone.

or iwo jima Island or Mount midoriyama

jima is Island, yama is mountain… midori is green, so midoriyama could be translated as green mountain.

I’m not saying it shouldn’t be done, I’m just predicting it’s going to flop.

it’s not that it shouldn’t be done, I’m just predicting it’s going to flop.

i mean, people have innovated in the areas they care already.

no one really cares that much about audio on phone calls. as long as they’re understandable.

people added video because it adds to the communication. spatial audio will not. it will only become common if one or two of these mega corps decide to shoehorn it into ever device. not because people actually want it or care.

might be a lucrative patent if we ever get holograms though

i mean, i don’t think anyone has actually considered including the leaked data in the leak announcement. it seems so obvious to just say which fields are leaked that i hadn’t even considered that someone might think to include the data itself.
