It’s possible to do less granular simulation of far away stuff as an LOD type thing. An object four times hotter than the surface of the sun should probably have an effect on the world around it. The tricky parts are how you determine where that threshold is, what those objects are, and what the low resolution world simulation should be doing in response

Don’t just state—regurgitate!

That is because nearly all of nvidia’s revenue comes from AI datacenter hardware now, and before that from crypto miners. As long as CUDA works without issue, their main clients by dollar volume are happy

There is room in !unixsocks@lemmy.blahaj.zone for everyone!

The issue then would be migrating all of your existing server to an offline server auth method. If there’s anyone who doesn’t log in during the migration period, anyone else could nab their account name (and presumably everything that account has on it) once it’s fully swapped over.

Plus, if the server remains popular after this, Microsoft lawyers could pursue legal action on the operation to bypass their auth servers as well

If the yolk directly touches the surface, the emulsifiers could potentially mess with things?

The problem is that, for the property owning class, the unaffordability of homes is broadly a feature and not a bug.

When I see something impressive generated by a computer, I may go “wow”, but when I see something, displayed on a computer or not, that I know a person went and handcrafted so many details on, I am inspired by that dedication to the craft. The human elements within art are a big part of what makes it meaningful.

If someone wants to use AI for the parts of a work they don’t care about (or as placeholders) so they can pour their heart into a different aspect of the work, fine. If they want the computer to do all the work for them, they have created slop. This is independent of whether we live in a society that values gross resource accumulation or one that shares equally.

I will say that the push towards slop primarily stems from our societal zeitgeist. The mentality is “I need to make as much money with as little effort as possible”, and sometimes people really do need that money to pay bills. I think that’s a big reason why it’s such a problem. There is little monetary value in actual expression for the effort required when compared with mass produced “content” for dollars.

We’re in the New Gilded Age

I think it depends on the reason you do not use it. The Luddites were primarily frustrated over automation displacing their high-skill job with low-skilled ones that produced worse quality goods. It’s a 2 for 1: we are losing the jobs we need to survive, but also we lose the personal touch from the work of artisans + lose appreciation for their talent.

I am not carte blanche against AI as a concept, but it really does seem like a technology that makes interactions worse quality, more depersonalized, and on top of that it has a horrible externalized environmental cost which benefits nobody in the long run.

Addendum: I believe technology has the power to be liberating when it provides for all of us, and oppressive when it concentrates wealth+power into the hands of moguls and tyrants.

If it gets you talking about it, even in the context of telling them to shut the fuck up, it’s working :)

In my experience, you find out BONTO! had a security breach via an Ars Technica article published around 4 months after the fact because the data was found on the dark web. Zero correspondence from the company itself except in rare circumstances

You see, the thing is that this particular house actually required a lot of skill and planning to make

Technically, almost all of Antarctica is located north of the south pole

I don’t disagree that they’re different terms, but I personally know a bunch of people who buy sorbet and call it sherbert, and basically use the terms interchangeably

In the US, I’ve heard it called shaved ice/snow cone if it’s freshly ground ice with flavor added by a person, popsicle if it comes in a single serving, and sorbet (often pronounced “sherbert”) if it comes in a tub. Usually sorbet tastes the most uniform and has the softest texture, but shaved ice at the County Fair on a hot sunny day hits like nothing else! (Also hits your wallet like nothing else too but that’s event pricing for ya)

Sometimes we call the squeeze tubes otter pops but I’m pretty sure that’s a brand name we use as a generic term.

You always think you remember how to center a div until you try to do it again after a few years
