My cat acts like its the end of the world and my guinea pigs dont even flinch. I even vacuum inside their cage and have to stop them trying to eat the vacuum.

Its the linux of food so yes.

Its gotten significantly less optimistic and more cynical. Its in my opinion more of a reflection of the state of the world than a Lemmy specific issue but it affects Lemmy users more because this isnt a space that allows people to live in ignorant bliss.

I dont deal with that because its not a logical conclusion.

If you have no one to rely on its not that that person doesnt exist its that you havent found them and built that trust. Be discontent with loneliness and take it as a sign to go out and find social connection.

A worse scenario is to become content with loneliness

My preference is usually a big kitchen sink application. I dont care about the application size and resources as I’m not anywhere near being resource constrained yet.

They said any form of age verification. I can verify the age of users on my system

Ok cool. Completely pointless comment

I was in university living in a house with 12 of my friends drinking more often than not. Having the best and worst time lots of exciting events and conflict.

Now im working a decent job, living in an alright house. Its boring and mediocre but I’m happy. I improve small things each day and advance slowly.

if im the root user then no user on my system has privacy

Depends on how its verified

I started listening to Ghost a few years ago after listening to Square Hammer. They are so good I have no idea how I got through my life without hearing them earlier. Love their costumes as well.

Ai is becoming a very good tool in the.software industry. I think people are going to have to really consider their AI stance and really hone in on what they actually find to be the unethical parts because it will be so widespread and you need to fight against its parts instead of it as a whole.

For me the copyright asymmetry and hostile integration with existing life. I dont want to live in a world where openAI can train a model off all works but i can’t do the same. I dont want openAI to scrape every website relentlessly while I get blocked from scraping any large website.

For power usage I dont care. Thats a local government issue. They choose to let an ai data center drive up costs and water usage then they suck and I’ll hate them for approving that. Theres plenty of places to put a data center where power isnt an issue.

For art Its awful because its trained unconsensually off artists works and two because it has no intention behind its creation. Ive come to believe that the reason we appreciate art is because of the human intention that goes into its creation. Thats why there is objectively bad art that we resonante with more than a perfect still life because the artist has a story alongside the piece and gives it unique value that ai could never truely replicate.

This is why I can accept AI usage in software development and still hate AI. If its built off an open source model its fine but i dont want to support development using these closed source models and end up in a world where american megacorps control the tools to create software.

I hate reading about how hard it is to sign up.

Changes look good but god dam I hate the discourse around fediverse software its like pulling teeth.

Project managers. Not racist I just dont like them. Never met one that wasnt a useless overpaid Muppet.

I like ddg. I think its getting better and better. I almost never need to fall back on google search Compared to 8 years ago where i often had to.

Yes we must think of the children of course.

I’m not even an apple user but i use their maps as an alternative to gmaps on ddg.

Thats like the worst way possible. Email file size limits suck and using a USB is tedious when i can be sent wirelessly.
