You're the only one interpreting it like that.

Some trauma stays with you for life. No one's calling her a "used up rag," the reality is that she may continue to suffer from what happened for the rest of her life.

Isn't face recognition just going to be inherently rly less reliable on darker skinned people? Their features would certainly have less contrast on darker skin, no?

I caved and went for n+1, bought a road bike and took it on my usual evening 26k route.

Beat every segment record lol

I would need even more. Let me buy it digitally. Not streamed, not with some draconian DRM. Just let me buy the MKV files straight from HBO, and I won't download them.

They have to be aware of how easy it is to rip a blu-ray, yet those are still for sale. So let's just skip the middleman and give me legal remuxes.

I'd read that the Hot feed degrades over time while a server is running, and this is responsible for users being shown several month or year old posts when browsing by hot. Some instances like lemmy.world get around this by restarting the server several times a day.

I was just curious about how often sh.itjust.works is restarted, since I've been seeing a high amount of old posts on hot recently.

The fucked up part isn't that AI work is replacing human work, it's that we're at a place as a society where this is a problem.

More automation and less humans working should be a good thing, not something to fear.

I'm a devops engineer, so I understand Linux well. I actually used exclusively Linux all throughout university.

Linux works just as good as windows for 98% of my uses cases. And for the 2% that it doesnt, I can probably figure out how to get it to work or an alternative.

But honestly, I usually just don't want to anymore. After working 8 hours, I'm very seldom in the mood to do more debugging, so I switch to Windows more and more frequently.

If this is my experience as someone who understands it, most normies will just fuck off the moment the first program they want to run doesn't.

If you set up a torrent for them, I'll be happy to perma-seed them from my gigabit dedicated server

A comment on my other account got brigaded by tankies a while ago. Was told to "fuck off, liberal"

But then that guy got banned from the instance, and everything was good.

Maybe if Twitter provided a reasonably priced API, people wouldn't have to resort to scrapers.

I realized that when I look for something, I have a precise mental image of what I'm looking for. If the real object doesn't match my mental image, it may as well not exist.

Case in point, my girlfriend asked me to get her allergy meds. I was looking for a box with blister packs, they were in a bottle. I literally moved the bottle aside while looking, before telling her that I can't find them

My money is that he continues to just not acknowledge it while it continues to get worse

I like to see if my comments are getting any engagement at a glance. Right now, I have to click to be taken to each one

Git is already decentralized - every contributor has a copy of the repo on their own machine.

At that point, it's just about using what's most popular. I have a slight preference toward gitlab myself, but the prevalence of github means I still push most of my projects to there, just because I'm already visiting the website so often.

Not sure if this is the right place to post this. When sorting by New on All, there are a couple posts on the top of the feed from the future.
