ParkingPsychology,

Looks like that's coming in Firefox 117 (we're at 115 currently).

You are correct, I'm on ESR apparently.

ParkingPsychology,

A prominent S

I guess that's a 5, not an S, since it was the 5th Separate Assault Brigade that was involved.

ParkingPsychology,

On the discomfort side, couldn’t they have the collection and recording happen in the background? If no other passengers or staff can see the numbers, there’s less of a chance of someone feeling uncomfortable with the process.

The weighing process involves humans, so that wouldn't be possible.

Their average intelligence being what it is, when instructed to have one person on the scale, sometimes it's one, sometimes two, sometimes two and a stroller. Sometimes somehow a horse ends up on the scale and no one really understands how, including that horse.

Unless you check the weight, you don't know what exactly was weighed.

ParkingPsychology,

It's just an oversimplified position. I think you can want very little (quantity wise, as number of desires), but exercise massive amounts of will to achieve it. And then you can live with more or less ego, or more or less empathy and care.

I'm sure there's dozens of other ways to do it. You just can't get there with "NPC" and "not NPC".

Some people are much more the protagonist in their story than other people. And then there's the degree to which the story actually overlaps with reality. You can make it all up and not follow up on it, or you can make it come true, and everything in between, human reality does allow for that.

ParkingPsychology,

No need. Homo sapiens is near the end anyway. Doesn't matter how it ends, if we get replaced by AIs, the next "Homo geneticmodified"or get wiped out. Kind of awesome to know, right? After 250,000 years, we're among one of the last Homo sapiens. Peak Homo sapiens.

You know what that means, "Homo sapiens"? It means "wise man".

We're going to get completely ridiculed for doing that in the future. Who the fuck even calls themselves "wise man". So lame.

ParkingPsychology,

There's a reason you don't often see machines over 300x300x400. At that point it gets hard to keep tolerances tight, requiring manufacturing changes or else you end up with printing artifacts.

This thing prints at 300mm/s at 1100x1100x820 and it's manufactured in a first world nation at low volumes.

It's hard to see, but I think they made the gantry (the whole Z platform, I mean) out of two plates of aluminum. They didn't bolt i beams together, it's just two massive plates with holes cut into them. That's the sort of engineering they did to get this thing to work at that size, with that speed.

Doing that is expensive.

ParkingPsychology,

They all migrate to USA in hope of getting jobs at big techs.

Eh... It's overrated. The pay is better, but otherwise it is definitely a downgrade. Maybe from east EU, it's a decent deal, from west EU, it's very disappointing. You basically end up thinking "but the money is good" over and over and wanting to go back to actual civilization.

ParkingPsychology,

Exactly. It's an odd type of gambling with your life.

ParkingPsychology,

I'm following the combat activities (the actual combat, not high level strategic stuff). It's all mines, mines, mines and then some trench warfare.

No amount of ATACMS can do anything about that. You still have to advance slowly, figure out where the mines are, clean them up or move around them and then take the trenches.

Drones can do a whole lot more good for a whole lot less.

ParkingPsychology,

/r/combatfootage on reddit. But you can also do it on twitter by following OSINT accounts (and you can combine the two). I just couldn't deal with the constant twitter BS anymore. They both mostly have "second hand" sources. First hand are telegram accounts, but I rather receive it filtered and sorted by votes, so I never went that far.

ParkingPsychology,

Bro, can you please talk to me like I'm a normal human being?

ParkingPsychology,

If you're going to defederate from everyone that's stupid, you're going to be very alone. And then there's the technical difficulty of having to defederate from yourself.

Might I suggest that next time you spawn, you do so on a planet that does have intelligent life? Kind of pointless to complain about idiots when you were the one that decided to be a human just before planetary annihilation.

ParkingPsychology,

You can't counter someones argument by just saying the same thing you know.

Sure you can. You can also win any argument by replying "no you". You just don't leave a very good impression if you do that.

He brings up a good point as you can in fact argue your likeness in court.

This would likely require a court case but chances are the AI law would have to offer an exception to it.

It's probably just going to fall under existing law and the owner of the AI replaces the owner of the copy that was made (so same laws, no exception). Not sure what law that is exactly, but I assume it involves royalties and the like and there's an exception for certain things, like news and maybe art.

Here's an article on it from the perspective of painting. I don't see why it would any different if it's an AI "painter". It's still technically painting what it does.

ParkingPsychology,

It's not just that the person would be expensive. Systems like that require system specific knowledge. So it's possible that it would take an outsider 3 months of study to get to the point where they can fix an issue properly in 5 minutes.

You can't make a baby in 1 month with 9 mothers. Some tasks just have an upfront cost and SOME IT automation jobs are like that.

And yes, you can try and do bodge job after bodge job "just to keep it going". And that works for some time. But eventually the small mistakes end up causing large outages. And then you need someone that can piece together how the small issues cause big outages.

ParkingPsychology,

Society isn't really good at knowing what it requires. And sometimes it's better to be cautious. Also capitalism breaks down in certain markets, one of which is the "job market".

Any market that involves a lot of players and little oversight will get manipulated like crazy, including the job market. Employers try to counter that, but in the end the people that are best at getting hired for a job get that job, not the people that are best at doing that job. How could it not be?

And that includes the jobs of the people that do the hiring. So it's a market that's rife with inefficiencies.

[ COMMUNITY UPDATE ] - A Note on piracy and Lemmy.world's decision to ban piracy communities - 2023-08-14 (lemmy.ml)

As you may know, Lemmy.world has decided to ban any communities that deal with the subjects of piracy. Considering that this sub might be considered piracy-adjacent, I’d like to make it clear that discussing the subject directly is not allowed, nor is requesting/offering Plex shares in posts or comments....

ParkingPsychology,

Self censorship is the best kind of censorship. If you're an oppressor of speech, that is.

ParkingPsychology,

There's a freedom of choice a moderator has and that is to lean towards restricting speech or allow a higher level of free speech.

You're the one that's deciding to exert censorship and not just that, you did so in a way that puts the spotlight on you, it is an act of ego.

You didn't have to do either.

It doesn't bother me that you did that, it doesn't impact me in anyway. I'm just providing commentary.

Odds are you won't listen to me and I can respect that, I wouldn't listen to me either.

But I've been a moderator for long enough, so I know others will do the same to you and eventually you'll get the message. Or not and then you'll just get tired of this thankless work and go do something else with your time.

ParkingPsychology,

This is more about your windows knowledge than windows. All the stuff you're mentioning can easily be done remotely with powershell remoting.

Also, I often just SSH to windows servers. Works fine, has been like that for years now.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/administration/openssh/openssh_install_firstuse

ParkingPsychology,

I still have to log in via fucking RDP to set it up.

Nah you don't. I've made plenty of headless installations for windows. You think everyone with a datacenter with hundreds of windows servers logs in to each of them with RDP? You can do it with an unattended.xml file. Which is harder to do than what I had to do to make a headless raspberry pi ubuntu server. By a lot, although if you look long enough, you might be able to copy someone else's unattended.xml.

Also, Windows Event Viewer still blows

Yeah, it's... an acquired taste. You can actually script it. But it is harder than string manipulation, since the events are all objects, not strings.

Then why has every Windows admin I’ve ever had to deal with use the GUI?

Cause I'm lazy.

ParkingPsychology,

And a single "S" is also a token. Which has vectors to all other words that start with an S.

One thing to point out here is that the word sentences is severely mistyped as "sententences". That's not going to help.

ParkingPsychology,

That's probably 150 aborted campaigns totaling 900 hours and two completed 25 hour each campaigns. Source: I'm at around 1500 hours, maybe 2000. A lot of it predates steam, so I don't know exactly.

I've only completed one campaign ever. At some point you know you've won and you're just steamrolling. So why bother.

ParkingPsychology,

Go with docker images and save your setup files/commands, so you can always redeploy on a NAS/new server later. Go with lscr.io/linuxserver images.

It probably took me a good 20 hours to setup. Then dozens more hours to get my existing library imported, but that's just part of the process.

Initially it is time intensive, but it's totally worth it. Make sure you make proper backups, so you don't lose your work.
