You want to challenge beauty standards? Cast Steve Buscemi as Geralt and Lizzo as Yennifer.

I’d agree with that, but calling it privilege is a bad name. Because how do you implement equality when dealing with privilege? You take from the privileged to level the playing field. So when you apply that to being privileged because you aren’t being discriminated against, the solution is to remove that privilege? So… do more discrimination so everyone is equal?

When you instead identify those that are oppressed and those that are not, the solution to equality is to remove the oppression. So when applied to our situation, remove the discrimination so everyone is equally not discriminated against.

Hmmm. I always thought it was about a donkey named Hotay.

I just got it set up with wavelet using my Sony wh-1000xm3 headphones. It’s interesting. I think it’s better. The autoeq preset definitely makes it a lot cleaner sounding with a bit more definition in the highs. Turning the eq off makes it sound fuller, but also muddier.

It’s all good. I try not to go in public too much, and when I do, I’m most certainly not the chode playing music on a speaker.

I listen to music on my phone’s speaker. Fight me.

To be fair, literally everyone asks “what kind of lunatic made this?!” upon seeing his packaging. The pre-emptive answering of the question seems well warranted…

In the US, evangelical xtians focus a lot more on the old testament. That yields a lot more fire and brimstone with a particular focus on punishment. This is where you find all the stories about god turning people into pillars of salt and committing genocide because he was grumpy. The new testament, i.e. the teachings of Jesus, focuses on kindness and compassion. Focusing on new or old testaments will yield wildly different moral structures.

Morpheus? I’m up for a Matrix reboot. Robert Patterson and Kristen Stewart have that unmistakable chemistry of Neo and Trinity.

https://notion.so It’s a web-based editor with a good android app. Has basic formatting, plugins/integrations, and dark mode. It’s free for individual use cases. Has some nice paid features for collaboration and business use cases, though the free plan still allows sharing and concurrent editing.

E: noticed this is in self hosted after posting. Maybe not what you’re looking for, but it’s a good service if you’re ok with that.

No, master-backup-2021-updated-steve-forked is the release branch…

People kill people… with guns. So we regulate people’s use of guns instead of putting guns in jail.

Like I said. Unions are important. So is labor regulation.

You’re mad at the wrong thing. AI, when used ethically and responsibly, can increase a human’s output in many tasks. This is a good thing and is how we advance as a society. AI does not hurt people. We’re not talking about Skynet.

What does hurt people is when unethical companies exploit their workforce by capturing their increased output without also compensating them for producing that additional output. That’s theft, and it has always happened whenever new tools are invented. But that theft isn’t perpetrated by the tool; it’s the employer that’s at fault. This is why unions are so important.

I wouldn’t call them bad artists for being outpaced by AI. No human can produce content by hand as fast as a computer. AI is just another tool in an extremely long list of tools that have changed how art is made.

If you go back far enough, I bet cavemen had arguments when someone invented the first brush and could paint all day long without bloodying their fingers scraping them against cave walls. Half joking there, but new and better tools are always being developed. Cameras are a great example of a new tool for art that made art a lot more accessible and affordable and we now accept as a normal artistic tool and not a threat. This attitude against AI will also pass over time.

The other big question is who’s paying for the infrastructure? If payments are done through a third party like Patreon, the host can’t take a cut. Serving lemmy text and image content from a home server is one thing. Being a 4k streaming host is an entirely different business. Way more computing load and bandwidth, which means higher hosting costs.

You can even write your own OS from the ground up. Everything is possible with enough time and reverse engineering. But is it a good idea? Usually not.

💯 she got it for the RGB

He killed a fuckton of vampires tho

Hot damn, where can I sign up?!?! I get the same except for a 1.2 TB data cap and pay $130/mo. Xfinity in the Denver metro area. Finally getting fiber this winter, symmetrical gigabit for $90.
