Accessibility is “no reason”?! I never called someone ableist before, but… gosh, you’re coming close.

The visually impaired will certainly agree that not helping them with a local AI model is a sacrifice worth being made for the purely moral stance of “no AI at all”.

Hey valve, so, Uhr… Funny thing… I’m actually… Uh
… kinda dead
Well, if you’re stupid enough to tell valve about the death that is
Glad I could help :)
Okay, there will be people disagreeing with me, but I can’t let a new user be misled by us nerds talking distros all day.
So, you want to choose a distro because you expect it to do things differently than your current one? Thing is: Ultimately, they (mostly) don’t differ that much, really. There are extremely few things one distro can do that you cannot do in any other distro. Yes, some files will be in different places, they might use special versions for some packages (which often can be overridden) or use older and more stable versions of stuff (Debian). Yet, in the end, they are all the same OS. They all use the same window managers, the same kernels, the same drivers (mostly), the same logic behind many things. Another distro only feels really different, when you know a lot about the ins and outs of Linux systems. If you don’t, the difference will often be that you have to type either “pacman” or “apt”, or either change /etc/program.conf or /etc/program.d/foo.conf.
Play with the distro you already have and like. You ain’t missing anything. Just don’t get the wrong idea that Distros are like windows: monolithic monsters that can’t be really changed. Like mint but want Gnome as window manager? Go for it. Dislike the way the standard terminal software does colors? Get another one. Don’t like how Program X does some GUI thing? There will almost always an alternative that just plugs into your system exactly as the preinstalled one did.
A distribution is basically just a pre-selection of packages that can be changed at will. Hell, you could in theory get pacman on Debian or Apt on Arch. I don’t know why you’d want to, but in theory you could.
Don’t waste your time reinstalling your machine. Play with the things you already have!
Am I the only one who finds it super annoying, that “detection through sound waves” (Sonar) does video things while “detection through light” (lidar) does the sound things?
WHY?! Swap names already! It’s driving me nuts!
Two things:
Or Trump up some wild charges about tax fraud or something
So we want Google and such to ignore laws when we think they should be ignored? Who decides which is which then?
I don’t get the premise of posts like that. We scold Google and other corps for not following the laws they are supposed to follow (data protection for example).and then we scold them for daring to follow lawmakers, when we don’t like the laws they follow. Which is it?
Those malicious coders are too sly for that. Some write “Sh1t” to throw grep off, others even do a “B3g1n”… They are always one step ahead!
I’d expect them to properly comment it with “#-------Begin malicious shit--------”.
COMMENT YOUR CODE, PEOPLE!
Can we all agree to call this vulnerability “Poobear”?
Added an usb drive by its /dev/sd** identifier to fstab without the nofail option. Wanted to do a quick reboot for something I can’t remember, then copy the files over to the USB drive, since I’d need them on the next day and… no boot. The reboot had assigned another name to the drive (/dev/sdb instead of /dev/sdc or something) and automount wouldn’t skip it because nofail was missing. In the middle of the night, with files I required right the next morning. Fun times.
Can we talk less about AI inevitably doing what AI always dies and fuck up and instead talk about the website that uses AI resources to dangle an even more juicy carrot in front of desperate people throwing away their money with the lottery?
Hello, I am a weirdo. How may I harass you today?
Agreed. If you’re not a citizen of a country and are not living in that country, why should you follow that countries laws and be obligated to keep that countrie’s secrets? That would be like prosecuting the journalists who published the Snowden documents in the UK. They never had anything to do with your laws, USA, so kindly fuck off, will ya?
How exactly do you think stuff around you works? Machine learning is everywhere gobbling up massive swaths of data wherever possible. Insurances, work shift planning, goddamn Spotify. All are using ML and have for years. To think you can just stay away from those Models is ridiculous.
