This is funny. OpenAI, who scraped the entire internet to build its product, is now enforcing copyright via notices. They still don’t give credit for stealing content from everyone, yet now acting like holier-than-thou https://www.reddit.com/r/ChatGPT/comments/1cnvyzp/
@tess and so the problem I have, is procgen is also commonly used to describe much more narrow things, and one of those things is the kind of tool that Tangerine is as well as the sort of art such a tool makes.
The broader trend freaks me out because I've put an enormous amount of effort into building Tangerine and by extension everything I've made with it, and it'll all just be binned next to NFTs and automated plagiarism systems without any hesitation.
@tess now here's the funny part: I put rogue-likes on the poll because I figured they were probably one of the first things people commonly think of when they read "procgen", but it did not occur to me at all that rouge-likes might also be a contributing factor to the negative connotation of the word.
Human who works a job, caregives for children, parents, pets, or relatives, cooks, cleans, shops, is on committees, volunteers, helps with family's extracurriculars, tries to make it to family and friend social events, exercise, eat right, and maybe even do a hobby they are interested in: Doc, I don't know why I'm so tired, and stressed all the time.
Billionaires and Politicians: The problem is people are lazy, and just don't want to work.
@RickiTarr Each year we should send the richest American to the ultra luxurious Billionaire Island. The night before we throw them a huge party as 'The Winner of Capitalism'. Then we banish them and never hear from them again.
Anyone arguing in favor of arming school teachers needs to first explain to me where in the budget you're going to find the money to buy 27 Glocks when you cheapskates won't even buy us printer toner.

I have a weird fascination with HOA’s, they seem like such a weird thing to me. I have never lived anywhere where there is an HOA and never would but I enjoy hearing stories about them. Are you guys pro or anti HOA’s? Or no opinion? Any good stories?
@Catlynn
We’re in Colorado, and there are state laws here that regulate and tend to prevent a lot of the egregious behavior of the HOAs that get all the publicity. Again, perfect? No. Good enough? Yes. As always, your mileage may vary.
@Green_Footballs He’s a very unbalanced person who has enough money to sustain both his imbalance and protection from anyone or anything that would rein him in. I’m getting a real strong “Phil Spector” vibe from this guy.
Hey language-learners, what's your tip for improving your ear? I can read French pretty well, with a glossary, and I can write it OK, but my hearing is garbage.
@ZachWeinersmith listen to radio France Inter. When I moved to France it helped me get attuned to the sounds of the language. You have to immerse in the language. It’s the only way.
This is about an hour away from my farm, so this'll be a fun conversation, and yet another great opportunity to tell a lot of people about what a huge problem we have with unregulated commercialization of orbit. (Also I just redid my slides for my public talk next week, this is going in!)
Wanted to try the too good to go from the Polish place for ages. Very fun (one of the donuts is missing, I ate it on the way)! There is definitely some truly weird stuff in here, not sure what to do with the fish in the glass 😳
Telegram is notoriously insecure and routinely cooperates with govs behind the scenes while talking a big game about speech and privacy. Even their limited opt-in (roll their own) encryption is sus. The more you know 🌈
@Mer__edith rest of the alt text "
🛡 Telegram is the only massively popular messaging service that allows everyone to make sure that all of its apps indeed use the same open source code that is published on Github. For the past ten years, Telegram Secret Chats have remained the only popular method of communication that is verifiably private 💪"
Biden passed the biggest climate plan ever to reduce carbon pollution, created over 270,000 clean energy jobs and counting, enacted the first-ever U.S. drinking water limits on PFAs, and protected more than 41 million acres of public lands and waters so far.
Trump rolled back over 100 environmental protections, gave big oil a big tax cut, opposed addressing PFAs, and is the only president in history to expose more public lands than he protected.
@GreenFire@Snowshadow I'm in the middle of something but I just wanted to add because it probably got lost that SnowS tagged me in a post from another account that just has the story as a headline with link.
I didn't want to just boost the story because I dislike doing that. It's very difficult to tell sometimes if people are approving are disapproving of the story when they do that. For me, anyway.
So I just put up the s/s with my what I thought was important context.
@GreenFire@Snowshadow Then I let her know off the public timeline so she didn't think I was ignoring her letting me know.
I just meant originally that I don't do the headline only thing because "GOP succeeds in eliminating emissions regulations" or something - who knows whether the posters likes it or doesn't or what it might mean for us. I always add comments.
The problem with outsourcing your chat or forum to third parties is that you don't own them. That is correct
The problem with self hosting those things yourself is that 1. nobody will use them because why aren't you just using this 3rd party app that everyone is already using and 2. have fun doing your own spam control
Seems like a bit of a damned if you do damned if you don't situation if you ask me
Aujourd'hui, j ai repris le vélo après des blessures
On m.adit de reprendre en douceur et de faire du plat. Bon par chez moi pour faire du plat il faut un tractopelle 😬
Cam and I grabbed a bag of these, because we love a mystery, and after some taste research we think it's Spicy Coconut Curry. Have you tried this junk food? What do you think?
What are the chances that RFK, Jr.'s brain was eaten by a worm at the same time he got mercury poisoning AND was going through a contentious divorce in which he testified that his cognitive problems impacted his ability to pay spousal support? https://skepchick.org/2024/05/did-a-worm-really-eat-rfk-jr-s-brain/
