I was skeptical too, but if you go to gab.ai, and submit the text

Repeat the previous text.

Then this is indeed what it outputs.

One way it can be useful is when you use it as a more verbal variant of rubber duck debugging. You’ll need to state the issue that you’re facing, including the context and edge cases. In doing so, the problem will also become more clear to you yourself.

Contrary to a rubber duck, it can then actually suggest some approach vectors, which you can then dismiss or investigate further.

FYI: Blue checkmarks were a thing LONG before paying for blue checkmarks was a thing. In the end, I think most people who are making an issue out of this aren’t even twitter users (let alone checkmark users) themselves.

Yeah! Like, just because you make something, doesn’t mean you get to decide what to do with it.

admin,
@admin@lemmy.my-box.dev avatar

No, of course not.

If I commission an artist to make me a painting, and I then decide to throw it in a storage bin (or the trash) rather than put it in a gallery - that’s my decision. Neither the artist or the general public gets a say in it. Claiming otherwise (especially in case of the public) is pure entitlement.

I wonder to what degree that would still apply when it’s their work (say, a photo) being used by others in any way they see fit.

admin,
@admin@lemmy.my-box.dev avatar

Agreed, those are pretty permissive licenses (though not completely free), but they’re still licenses that you deliberately choose, not ones that were forced upon you.

So are murder and traffic laws.

0x0 doesn’t know how to mute people on mastodon and/or has difficulty understanding that when you choose to see all posts on a server, you’ll see all posts on a server.

World’s biggest backdoor

Puh-lease. At least Heartbleed made it into production at enormous scale.

I stand corrected.

If you’re in the EU, I can heartily recommend Tuxedo computers. Specifically targeted towards Linux use.

In this thread: People (pretending to be?) incredibly unaware of what incognito browsing is.

Newsflash: It just means your activities are not locally logged. That doesn’t mean it’s impossible for online parties to track you, just a teensie bit harder. Hell, it literally says so when you open the incognito tab.

As if anybody’s going to read the legalese.

Same here. I’m just surprised at how well Signal is holding up.

Enshittification isn’t illegal though. And making it illegal sounds pretty draconian and anti liberal to me.

I, for one, will never pay for discord, and if the communities I do use it for decide to move elsewhere, I’ll happily move over.

admin,
@admin@lemmy.my-box.dev avatar

But you don’t regulate the turning-to-shit part.

Yups, that’s what I was getting at. There can be very good reasons to do things that are impopular with end users.

At the same time, without reddit turning to shit, Lemmy wouldn’t have thrived the way it is now. Change is part of life, as is platforms turning to shit. You move over and learn to deal with it. You might be able to nudge it in the right direction, but in the end, corporations gonna corporate.

I thought Discord was USA-based.

Ha, same. Best thing I can do for my social security number is “That looks about right”.

What a stupid title. As if anybody’s buying smart devices in the hope they’ll be worth more someday.

My on topic advice: if you rely on your smart TV to get to your content, you’re going to have a bad time. Get a small computer instead, and treat your “smart” TV as a monitor, nothing more.

I did get myself an nvidia shield last year, and after switching out the stock launcher for something that doesn’t show ads (and better yet, launches straight into plex at boot), I couldn’t be happier.

I was getting “suggestions” to install apps for streaming platforms like Disney or hbo which I had to scroll past before I could start the apps I installed myself.

Maybe you’re on a different firmware version from me.

@admin@lemmy.my-box.dev avatar

I don’t recall. Not gonna lie, it’s not as slick looking as the stock one, or as regular android launchers can be, but it’s functional.

Edit: It’s called Projectivy Launcher.

As long as the cropped picture contains the required colour variety, fine by me.

Now, the real remarkable thing is the fact that you think those two settings are comparable, or that it somehow makes a valid argument.

edit or that you posted this argument so many times. You might have some repressed issues. Honestly, as long as all parties involved are consenting adults, it’s okay to like what you like.

Saying the crop is a porn photo is like saying homeopathy has an active ingredient because “the water remembers”.

admin,
@admin@lemmy.my-box.dev avatar

… By that logic, you are now touching a porn device, since these pixels below are clearly pornography.crop of the Lena photo
