What is gay underwear? Like a specific brand?

[-] MinFapper@startrek.website 9 points 1 month ago

Maybe that reputation was well deserved in the past?

Yes, but skillful is a different thing entirely

Some stores require you to use the app for order pickup.

Sounds like a store to avoid like the plague.

What a stupid, stupid reason to have to live through another Trump presidency and continue the war unchanged.

FTFY

I think 20 years ago they said it's set to heal by 2050...

[-] MinFapper@startrek.website 10 points 2 months ago

But... that requires the internet to research

You can just run yay with no arguments and it does exactly what your update script does.

To quote the other comment in this thread: "just use Fdroid". No engagement driven design there.

So, before the invention of the camera, the most valuable and most popular creative skill was replicating people on canvas as realistically as possible. Yes, we remember famous exceptions like Picasso, but by sheer number of paintings the most common were portraits of rich people.

After the cameras took that job away, prevailing art changed to become more abstract and "creative". But that still pissed off a lot of people that had spent a very long time honing a skill that was now no longer in demand.

What we're seeing is a similar shift. I think future generations of artists will value color theory, composition, etc. over specific brush stroke techniques. AI will make art much more accessible once enough time has passed for AI assisted art to be considered art. Make no mistake: it will always be people that actually create the art - AI will just reduce/remove the grunt work so they can focus more on creativity.

Now, whether billion dollar corporations deserve to exploit the labor of millions of people is a whole separate conversation, but tl;dr: they don't, but they're going to because there is little to stop them in correct economic/governance models.

False.

I work for Microsoft and I can assure you that any effort I make to increase code quality or reduce jank (or pretty much anything other than shoving more AI in our products) will not positively impact my bonus next year.

You could absolutely install software on Windows 3.5 that would crash the system.
