That like seems to be broken, neither the Wikipedia app nor my browser can open it

In my browser I get:

Bad title

Did you mean: Molotov?

The requested page title contains unsupported characters: "%E2".

YIKES... I straight up did not know that...

Oof ouch my misinformed 😬

I wish we could see what outlet it was for context

Generative ai and machine learning are pretty broadly considered different if adjacent technologies if I'm not mistaken

https://www.forbes.com/sites/bernardmarr/2024/06/25/the-vital-difference-between-machine-learning-and-generative-ai/ probably not the best source, I just grabbed what came up

They don't really do the same thing, and have different types of outputs compared to one another, even if both use a neural network of weights or whatever

As a person who has spent a huge amount of my life making art I think the idea that it will get more people into art is naive, and I think being devoid of understanding artistic principles it makes poor reference compared to anything else, which is part of why artists communities loathe generative AI. I follow tons of artists online and they all periodically have to stop and vent their frustration.

A youtuber artist did a whole video explaining how finding reference on the internet is now borderline impossible due to ai content, and after problem solving explained you can avoid that problem by only looking at images older than when gen ai became widespread. It reached a pretty big audience and was extremely well recieved by artists, broadly, hate gen ai and want nothing to do with it 😅

Also just wanna clarify- I'm not downvoting you. I try to downvote when a comment is bad behaviour or doesn't add anything, not just when I don't agree with someone

By the way, this comm is for memes about the fediverse, rather than just memes posted here on the Fediverse more broadly 😅

This is probably not the right comm unless I'm missing something

I think the appeal of seeing stuff that people make is that it reflects the humans who made it.

I'm generally not especially interested in what an algorithm produces, at least not in the same way or for the same reason as I am things made by people.

I don't know what gen ai could produce that I would sincerely find good, it lacks the humanity that gives that product any worth.

Is that generative ai or machine learning? I really don't have the same issue with machine learning

Its not just llm's, I find calling ai generated images "art" frankly offensive and demonstrates a fundamental misunderstanding of what art is and why it's important to us as humans. But my issue is really just generative ai

I don't really think people have an issue with machine learning, it's useful for all kinds of stuff, and doesn't really come with the same ethical problems as best I'm aware, so I have no reason to complain about it.

I don't have parts that make pads or cups necessary, but is this something that would pair well with a menstrual cup? Or is any kind of pad generally not needed with a cup?

I really need to try open suse, for several reasons, but agama looks really nice! The pallete with that green is lovely

Tumbleweed feels like it could be a contender to replace fedora for me which would be cool

[–] Cris_Color@lemmy.world 2 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

At least it's a pretty sight!

I like your username :)

I'm not exactly sure how hard my water is, but I don't think it's soft and I don't think it's like ridiculously hard.

Yeah, trying to raise the babies right off the bat definitely feels like an ambitious choice with exactly zero fish-keeping experience 😅. I think part of me just worries that the breeder who has the pattern I love will end up keeping different stuff and won't have them any more. I rarely see that pattern and when I do its usually a slightly different version/line, and more expensive (I think what I like might be considered lower "grade" or quality. The patterns are more random and blotchy and I think that's prettier than the more organized or symmetrical patterns). That may just be a fomo anxiety on my part

I think I remember looking up the weight and seeing it was within the rated weight limit, but I'll double check it! I live on the third floor, it'd really fucking suck if it failed lol

Thank you for the encouragement! If I give things a go when I manage to get a job I'll be sure to post it 😊 in the mean time I'll just be happy to see people's cool tanks :) I've just about run out of things to research, so if I stay interested it's a good sign it's a hobby I'd like to pursue and not just me having fun obsessively learning stuff about some random hobby and planning out hypotheticals lol

 

Dave2D reviews the legion steamOS version compared to the windows version, and talks about the differences in performance and user experience

 

Had a really good time, I'm really glad we made signs :)

I'm not awake during the day generally so I'm kinda thinking now, maybe a way I can contribute is making signs for people to pass out or give away as a way I can contribute

There were people out handing out cookies and donuts which was pretty cool too :)

 

Didnt get any pictures cause my phone was turned off but there were a ton of people driving by filming

It was honestly really fun, I expected to to feel like a necessary and important chore, but it was super fun waving to every car and trying to get people to honk, and shouting

There were times where it felt like everyone at the major intersection we were at were honking simultaneously and it was kinda incredible 😅 I imagine it helps a lot we were in a fairly blue area in my state

We went to a smaller protest location instead of the main one in our area so we expected it to be really small and peeter out early but it was way bigger than either my friend or I expected

Overall it was really nice, I got to chat with folks, there were folks passing out food so I got a free cookie and donut, got to wave at cars, see people and sometimes little kids in the back seat wave back, try and get moving trucks and whatnot to honk (a good number did lol), only downside is I'm pretty sunburnt cause afterwards we went strawberry picking lol. I'm sure not all protests are fun, but as a first time experience it was a lot more fun that I expected

Walking away from it I feel a bit more connected to my community and I love that feeling

 

Didn't get any pictures cause I turned my phone off but a ton of people were filming as they drove by. We expected it so be a small location (we didn't go to the main one in our area) but there ended a lot of people there

Getting everyone to honk was honestly really fucking fun 😅 I waved at every car, and a couple of guys on motorcycles- getting one of the motorcycles to wave back was a highlight. There were some big moving trucks that honked, some little kids who waved from back seats, overall had a blast

 

This video is super important, I just reuploaded it to peertube so people can watch without instagram

Thank you to bacon_pdp who posted the original Instagram link on lemmy where I saw it! I just knew people wouldn't want to watch it through instagram

 

Edit: I removed the HELP and extra question mark from the end since I've now left it be outside and don't need a advice. I thought the cross post would include the body text from the first post on !cat@lemmy.world so I guess I accidentally left out all the other pictures and additional info, oops

 

I was able to build some trust and now it's extremely friendly, I live in an apartment complex with no pet doors in central NC, should I bring it inside and see if it's chipped in the morning? I don't wanna leave it outside if it might have no home, but I don't wanna steal someone's cat

It looks like an adolescent or a late kitten? The collar has nothing on it, it's just a piece of white flexible plastic with a buckle...

Removed the "HELP" since people in the other thread were able to help me figure out that I should leave it be outside

 

Due to a sleep disorder it's hard for me to participate (I'm not awake during the day) but if I know what's happening when and can try to plan around it I might be able to sometimes

How do you find out what protests are happening? Any guidance for staying in the loop so I can see if there are any I can be a part of?

Sounds like there are a lot of exemptions which is disappointing

 

Listen to the sound of Wikipedia's recent changes feed. Bells indicate additions and string plucks indicate subtractions. Pitch changes according to the size of the edit; the larger the edit, the deeper the note. Green circles show edits from unregistered contributors, and purple circles mark edits performed by automated bots. You may see announcements for new users as they join the site, punctuated by a string swell. You can welcome him or her by clicking the blue banner and adding a note on their talk page.

I adore this site. I learned about it from the internet is beautiful sub eons ago and I still come back to it when I want background noise but all my options feel like too specific of a sound. Its just a lovely little mix of chimes and swells and you can toggle which languages to include to tune how frequent you want them to be
