That's... thats a fly, with stripes for some reason.
Maybe, but gen AI produces actually useful, tractable results. That's already heaps more than crypto, which is just techno gambling
Yeah, love all the armchair political commentators on lemmy. I live in Berlin, what's happening in the Neukölln district of Berlin has nothing to do with peaceful protests. It's a whole bunch of "kill all Jews" mixed with a hefty dose of "burn it all!", and somehow it's always a giant mob of violent men in their twenties, who aren't exactly paragon of empathy and diversity, imagine that.
Be that as it may, no government in the world would leave today's events unanswered for.
Yeah, this ain't "dihydrogen monoxide lol11!", hydrazine is really really nasty stuff.
So uh, turns out the energy companies are not exactly the most moral and rule abiding entities, and they love to pay off politicians and cut corners. How does one prevent that, as in the case of fission it has rather dire consequences?
Also a cautionary tale about the effectiveness of external destabilization efforts.
I think burkinis are dumb, personally, but I don't give a damn what people wear. This is just typical ingroup-outgroup postering fueled by a proto fascist government, standard stuff really. Also, hygiene? Bro, it's the ocean, a layer of clothing extra ain't gonna make a difference.

Y'all know what shmups are, but just in case: a "shmup" is short for "shoot 'em up", a genre of video games where the player controls a character or vehicle, often in a two-dimensional setting, and fights a large number of enemies while dodging their attacks. The genre traces its roots back to the golden age of arcade gaming with pioneering games like "Space Invaders" and "Galaga". Shmups often demand quick reactions, precision, and strategic use of special abilities to survive against overwhelming odds. They often have various sub-genres like "bullet hell" featuring screen-filling attacks, "run 'n gun" with on-foot characters, or "cute 'em up" sporting a less serious, more whimsical aesthetic.
Now, here are some of the best shmups across different retro platforms:

Anything I missed? I love this genre, even though a lot of these a hard as nails, but save states and slow-mo mode sure make some of these a little more accessible, heh.
If you have an Anbernic or Miyoo this collection is the real deal. Any game imaginable is in there, it's perfect. I pulled it via torrent and copied it to my 128GB secondary microSD on my Anbernic RG35XX (running GarlicOS) and it works so, so well. Highly recommended.
Every week a new topic, last week was Capcom VS Marvel. The two hosts are pleasant to listen to, the podcast is usually a tight 60-90 minutes.
I've implemented a few of these and that's about the most lazy implementation possible. That system prompt must be 4 words and a crayon drawing. No jailbreak protection, no conversation alignment, no blocking of conversation atypical requests? Amateur hour, but I bet someone got paid.
