Sekoia,

For syntax highlighting, it’ll soon be possible (might already be?) to add syntax highlighting languages yourself

Sekoia,

I am tired and only glanced at this so at first I just read “you a piece of shit” which ended up being very much not the intended message

Sekoia,

That’s because it’s suspended from your instance. Many instances are blocking threads since. Yknow. Facebook. Privacy and such.

Also the whole “committing a coup”. And the “actively spreading discord”. And- you know what I’ll just stop there

Sekoia,

That’s Grant Anthony O’Brien. Look him up, watch True Facts about Grant Anthony O’Brien it’s great.

Anyway no idea if this is him or a character.

Sekoia,

Can’t blame you on Dark Bramble that shit’s terrifying

Sekoia,

I don’t get what the image has to do with the text

Sekoia,

“The ranges experienced by humans” is extremely variable. My friends from hotter countries can barely handle 10°C, but are fine at 40°C, and it’s entirely the opposite for me.

I assure you that for regular use, Celsius works great. I don’t really think either is better than the other in practice (outside of chemistry), but “it’s the range people experience” is kinda bull. A 10 degree F difference from 0 to 10 is very different from 60 to 70.

Also, water freezing at 0°C (and boiling at 100°C, to a lesser degree) is quite convenient in everyday life. Just check for a minus sign and you know if it can freeze.

Sekoia,

I’m not aware of any word like that

Sekoia,

Aw fuck I read that so much, and then it just kept spiralling into its muscle fetish. By far the most “the writer’s poorly disguised fetish” thing I’ve read. I don’t wanna read about steroids I wanna read about regular people doing stuff the aliens find impossible and inventing shit (||Von Neumann probes||)

Sekoia,

Er ist ziemlich aalreich, nei?

Sekoia,

Yeah, but the bridge is correctly over the river and the buildings aren’t really merged. Tough though.

The second one got me tho

Sekoia,

Personally, I have no issue with models made from stuff obtained with explicit consent. Otherwise you’re just exploiting labor without consent.

(Also if you’re just making random images for yourself, w/e)

((Also also, text models are a separate debate and imo much worse considering they’re literally misinformation generators))

Note: if anybody wants to reply with “actually AI models learn like people so it’s fine”, please don’t. No they don’t. Bugger off. arxiv.org/pdf/2212.03860.pdf here have a source.

Sekoia,

Sure, it’s not proof, but it gives a good starting point. Non-overfitted images would still have this effect (to a lesser extent), and this would never happen to a human. And it’s not like the prompts were the image labels, the model just decided to use the stock image as a template (obvious in the case with the painting).

Sekoia,

You do realize homophobia is still… like, a thing, right?

Also, people constantly mention or reference their own sexuality. You don’t notice it because it’s straight, but every time a male coworker mentions his wife (or the opposite) that’s an indirect reference to their sexuality. Every time the male lead kisses the female lead in a movie. Every song where a male singer sings about their girlfriend or some girl they like. There are also baby shirts that say stuff like “lady’s man”. Granted, most people also find those ehh, but they exist.

Fact is, being straight is considered “normal”, and other sexualities weren’t, and still aren’t to many people. This means that, yes, some people are gonna make a deal about it.

Some of my friends never really “came out”, because it was actually normal for them, so they never had to figure it out. For myself, I was mildly homophobic when I was a teen, which meant figuring it out was a bit of a process, so me “coming out” did mean telling my friends. Now imagine how it is for somebody who grew up in an extremely homophobic environment.

All of the queer people I know irl “make it part of their identity” just as much as you might make “being left-handed” or “being spanish” part of your identity. That is to say, it’s a fact about them they might mention occasionally when relevant, or make jokes about it, or reference the culture. But you don’t bitch about that, do you?

TLDR: your comment seems to stem from pretty complete ignorance about… well, everything you’re talking about. Please don’t be dismissive about stuff you don’t know much about, it makes you look bad and a lil’ self-centered.

Sekoia,

Joo esperanto estas mojosa!

Mi ĵus atignis kvarcent tagojn hieraŭ

Sekoia,

I’ve only had jackfruit a few times, but it was delicious every time

Sekoia,

Oh god fucking dammit. I scrolled past this at first.

Sekoia,

I got this one for free because a company couldn’t be bothered to reinstall windows

Sekoia,

Yes, it’s laptop RAM

Sekoia,

I… don’t know why I didn’t think of that. I’ll have to check if I have another.

Sekoia,

Thank you! I’m not gonna try and fix the box itself, but somebody suggested it might be the power supply.

Sekoia,

Well, I fully disassembled it, and I’ve found some components that are heating up a lot and probably making the buzzing noise.

files.catbox.moe/6pazjn.jpg

However I have no idea what they are, if they’re the problem or some connected component. The label doesn’t return anything, so I think this 'uns a goner :(

Sekoia,

To be honest, I don’t think it’s worth the bother. This is just an i3-5 something, and I got all the working parts off of it. But it’s good a good idea, thanks!

It is I, the great and powerful Arch Wizard of Mastodon. I have used my arcane magicks to post this to Lemmy. You must like, boost, or reply to this post within one day, or else I will manifest within your abode to install a GNU/Linux distro on your computer.

Sekoia,

I will manifest within your abode to install a GNU/Linux distro on your computer

As a preventative measure, I have now installed Linux on all my computers

Sekoia,

Do they tho? A single atom is too small to have an actual “color” I believe, and if you arrange them differently you’ll have different colors. For example, carbon arranged like a diamond is clear, but carbon in coal is black.

Sekoia,

This isn’t a lemmy L, look at how many posts there are in that sub

(It’s less than 1)

SpaceX Might Have Lost 200+ Starlink Satellites In Just 2 Months Shows Data (wccftech.com)

SpaceX's Starlink satellite internet constellation has lost more than two hundred satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO) since July, according to data from a satellite tracking website. This is the first time that Starlink has lost a significant number of satellites in a short time period, and these losses are typically influenced...

Sekoia,

… which is maybe why things that are essentially critical to a developed country’s lifestyle probably shouldn’t simply be companies. If we go off of “it’s not profitable”, public transport wouldn’t be any good, postal services would suck, etc.

The internet should be a public service like mail.

Also, in the US they paid the ISPs to hook everyone up to fiber, and then they just… didn’t.

Sekoia,

Uh no people definitely did. Mostly the people that actually knew how this shit worked. But even laypeople complained when it was just Dall-E and Midjourney.

Sekoia,

I can’t tell where the head is facing

Also nice hand/hoodie

Sekoia,

Yeah ik but

Man idk. It looks smooth. And the hoodie sleeve slightly over the hand is nice.

That cat is great tho, really nice color

Yeah idk what my brain is doing either.

Sekoia,

I mean technically I do that, but mine doesn’t do a web search (linux) so it’s not equivalent anyway. It is very convenient tho

Sekoia,

I believe that part is a joke

Sekoia,

I’ve been told several times “ah yeah I had kinda guessed” as a bi dude. Literally no idea how you could tell, considering I look the same as before I figured myself out.

Sekoia,

I mean yeah but. I am the most standard skinny white dude.

That said I have literally 0 gaydar so.

Sekoia,

“15 minute drive” at rush hour. My man could walk.

This entire comment could be summarized by “butbutbut people who live in areas with shitty public transport have to drive”

We already know this. The point is to make it better, because good public transport is better for literally everyone. I live on the edge of town, and I’m 5 minutes from 7 bus stops for 5 different bus lines, and a train station. Most of those buses come every 10-15 minutes, and are up to 5 minutes late at rush hour. It is by far a better experience to take the bus than to drive for me.

Sekoia,

Point 2: actually a very significant portion of pollution from cars are micropollutants from tires and not related to emissions Point 3: trains. Point 4: if we’re considering random scenarios: “oh no my car broke down” is… much more common than “my loved one is in the hospital”. Good public transport is only marginally slower, and is a more pleasant experience as a whole.

Most of these are from you never having had actually good public transport, it seems to me.

Sekoia,

Special lanes and priorities! They’re a thing! Literally in the city next to mine (not necessary cus the town is small enough).

Sekoia,

That’s just called a skirt

Sekoia,

Idk, a skirt is a lot less clothing than a suit. Not much can be changed. If you look at a kilt, it’s pretty similar to a skirt

Sekoia,

I made myself a python script to automatically tag and download entire albums from youtube at a time. I use syncthing to automatically sync it all. Quality isn’t the best but I can’t tell anyway so

Sekoia,

Well yeah, that’s their rule. “Fuck y’all” and “Anything to get me ahead”.

Sekoia,

I just shaved my legs and it feels pretty great :3 kinda sucks to keep finding areas I missed after but damn this is comfy

Honestly to me face shaving is much more important tho. Shaved legs feel great, shaved face is a necessity (I have the worst combo of super light skin + dark hair, even if I literally just shaved the roots are still visible on the chin. It makes that area automatically more masc I think, which sucks)

Sekoia,

Thanks! I don’t own any makeup, but when I do I’ll have to keep this in mind. As an extra, for some reason some skin around my mouth (under and sides) has a weird yellowish tint. Any ideas about that?

(Tiny aside: to be clear, I’m a guy that likes to look fem/andro)

Sekoia,

I don’t get that much myself (it only gets rough when you go against the grain and it does that anyway even after shaving, just not as much), but I feel that for facial hair. A day of not shaving and it’s already not smooth

Sekoia,

Worth a shot! Thanks!

Sekoia,

It’s more relevant for NA, it’s an indigenous thing iirc.
