Yeah the obsession of like “make it a home” is weird to me in a world of rising living costs and very few being able to afford a house. My apartment complex just raised my rent $200 this year and that’s low compared to the market. Why the fuck would I put posters or photos up I’m going to have to take down when I can’t afford the next rent increase next year?

Excuse me that’s meme version KD6-3.7
Like a free ride when you’ve already paid
yeah but “sir meemsalot” put his watermark on it so it must be good
But also implemented incredibly stupidly. You are purchasing a url in a blockchain that points to a server or domain a singular person or org owns in most cases. That gets rid of any point of the blockchain. With enough money I just buy that server, the image url you purchased is now under my control and now it’s porn or something unless you pay me to restore it. There were very few NFTs where the actual thing you’re buying is on a distributed blockchain rather than a pointer to a centralized and privately owned server. In programming terms it’s what rust does to prevent bad pointers with https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch04-02-references-and-borrowing.html

5·2 months agoI haven’t smoked or consumed thc in a year. I took a 10mg edible with a friend a week ago and we went to a hockey game and I felt like my stoned college days laughing about stadium hot dogs. Everyone is different. But tolerance builds more and more the more you consume and more frequently
Yeah Anthropic has a whole research department for this

And you’re exactly right. Models at this point are like a trillion floats in complex vectorized matrix math and we don’t really know how that works to produce the output we see

Linux@lemmy.ml•Why isn't there a Windows community? Is Linux winning?
1·2 months agoI think the answer is pretty complex and gets into why online communities in general become hostile, not just Reddit.
First off, there are incredible amounts of money and effort being spent to make people feel tribal and hate each other. Destabilization happens by convincing people that those next to them are at fault for their woes, and ensuring they don’t look up at the strings being pulled.
Second, those who generally aren’t hostile naturally don’t gravitate to places that are, so the gravity of hostility increases by hostile people being there and echoing hostility to those they perceive to be being hostile to them, even if the sentiment is “be less hostile.” It’s baked into meme culture. “Touch grass” is genuinely like “hey go outside, take a breath” at its core, but is now an insult or hostility that gets a reaction of further hostility.
Third, the world is really fucking shitty in ways outside of most people’s control. You can vote, martyr, donate, but generally the world has gotten to a close point to 100s of sci fi stories we’ve written warn us about, and so some people are just doing what the money in item one is spending, the conditioning works. Feels warm to hate someone. But then for those on the opposite they want to hate what they consider stupid.
That being said, people are genuinely shitty often, and it’s foolish to pretend that’s not the case. Open source has often been full of pettiness and bickering. Many a GitHub threads are just arguing about someone who wants a feature and is mad at volunteer developers for not delivering it. I could go on a tirade but I’ll end there

Linux@lemmy.ml•Why isn't there a Windows community? Is Linux winning?
4·2 months agoI haven’t seen how Lemmy responds to troubleshooting requests about Linux. But I remember some Linux Reddit communities being full of vitriol of like “don’t use things you don’t understand” or like “distro? version? Hardware specs? Logs? Did you even search?” Which I believe led to people just starting out uncomfortable with asking for help there
Everyone pisses, but if you did it 50 times a day you’d go to a doctor.
engineers are just letting
That’s a bold claim cotton, I’m sure there are no project managers, middle managers, or executives involved
I mean as long as you use the shower to get clean too, that’s just pure efficiency
Can’t wait to see how much lint is in her dryer
EAT THE RICH
I think or something along those lines
Yeah lol they also have a literal self destruct that will destroy the fab process in case of Chinese (or other) invasion corporate or national


Yeah I think it been a Mac feature since like 2018, but more newly adopted in KDE. But either way it’s just a helpful UX idea, and potentially aligns with someone’s behavior of just like moving the mouse fast to verify it’s still working
