So if the work they used to train it isn't a copyright violation canthr things it creates be copyrighted? I hate copyright. It doesn't protect the people it should. Public domain everything that these AI create, companies will stay away, and we support creators directly.

Invidious, Nitter and Libreddit still work for me. Unless they lock these items behind a login, even without access to API, which Invidious has never used, they can scrape the website which costs more data to the server.

Probably the best gaming hardware purchase I've ever made. Play weekly, take it with us on vacation so we can hook it to hotel tvs and not put up with cable or smart tv BS. Absolutely love it.

While I think she's missed too much, she's quite old, and I think she should be replaced (though I'm not in her area so this is a moot point really), did anyone here actually watch the video?

This is a confusion in procedure and happens all the time.

Here is the video, go to 53:40 approximately:

Use tech and services outside the big tech. Just Fedi over standard social. Use Peertube instead of Youtube.

Run Firefox.

Set up your own servers for yourself or start a community. Matrix, Mastodon, Lemmy, etc.

Run SearXNG as your search or help others by hosting.

If you can work of free and open source code that helps decentralize and give the power back to the people or create something new. Even if you can code, learning a project and helping others with it or helping create docs, etc.

Spread the word, but don't be annoying. Help less technical folks get decentralized.

It's very difficult and can be disheartening, but you don't have to cold turkey all of it. Each drip in the bucket helps until we're all united and become a tidal wave.

When all the power is centralized that's when those central players think they can do whatever they want.

This is the part that caught my attention:

Privacy features like user-agent reduction, IP reduction, preventing cross-site storage, and fingerprint randomization make it more difficult to distinguish or reidentify individual clients, which is great for privacy, but makes fighting fraud more difficult.

And we do those things, not because we're fraudsters, but because we're trying to protect ourselves from the likez of YOU!

YOU did this, change your model and maybe it'll be better? Oh! But! Mooooooooney! I forgot. Stupid me.

This is the fucking bully telling the nerd that if he doesn't just HAND OVER his lunch money, that he'll get beat. It's YOUR fault! Not OURS!

Edit: Formatting and added about bully

Edit 2: fixing the formatting of the formatting edit. :-D lol

This is why I now have my own domain. Do a catch all and I can create any address I want at any time and then just throw it away if it won't stop spamming me. Also helps to ID those that sold my info. Or use Anonaddy ( https://anonaddy.com/ ). I use it with Bitwarden.

 

I remember reading on Reddit that folks were experiencing oddities with their battery life. I've been fighting with my battery, though I don't think it's a bad battery it's more that the software thinks the battery is dead and shutting down the system.

Does anyone remember how to reset the battery?

Something like letting it fully charge, then fully draining it in one session, then fully charging and draining, a few cycles and it's better or something?

Anyone have any thoughts, suggestions, etc?

 

In science we attempt to classify everything. And everything seems to be a subset of something else. Planet is a part of a solar system, solar system is a part of a galaxy, galaxy is part of the universe, universe is a part of our dimension, etc.

Obviously there are exceptions to this, rogue planets, but we still consider them contained.

I understand the idea of multidimensions is theoretical, but if they exist, do we have a name or even a theory what might contain them?

 

I was thinking about Kitt Pride, XMen, and her super power to phase through solid objects, yet not sink through the floor or lose her clothes, but just wondering if she was kind of outside of our reality and not actually interacting with the molecules. Which made me wonder, if you weren't interacting with the air molecules, would you make any noise? Whether attempting to talk or what not.

I'm guessing the answer is no, but just curious what others thought.

 

Just finished Alma's Awakening on PC. It seems like a classic NES Metroidvania game. While I'm not a Metroidvania fan, I hate backtracking and losing out on items because I don't have the skills to get things, it makes this approachable because of teleports. Beautiful pixel graphics, controls are floaty but just like original NES games. It's pretty rough, but also has a mode to help those folks, like me, that don't have the time for the hardcore stuff. Even with accessibility enabled it's still pretty tough and a few times I quit and walked away for a bit, but it's just so lovely I had to keep coming back and finish it. Wonderful game if you enjoy classic NES style games.

Anyone recommend any other classic NES style games?

Pie Recipes (self.baking)
 

Anyone have any delicious pie recipes?

 

Just wondering if anyone had any fun summer activities for 3 and 6 year old?

We do Crunchlabs boxes and Kiwicrate. Color, go to the museums, arborretum, etc. Anyone have any unique thing for kids to do?

SGF just started. What games are folks looking forward to?

Also am I the only one that looks at the games and if it doesn't have a Demo I just go on to the next one? if it has a demo then I look at it to see if I'm interested in it. LOVE demos and miss the days when all games had demos and tried to sell themselves to you.
