  • He knows that the rabid Republicans will try to twist it to say that he was jailed to prevent him from attending his own hearing. When they would gladly teleconference him in from the cell, like they do with other criminals. But that's not good enough for Donald Duck. Either this Jack-o'-lantern gets to sit there and look pretty or he will scream and cry a fit until election day comes around and it's too late.

    It's all part of the nut factory's plan.

  • I can't be the only anatomical male out there that both agrees with the sentiment but also hates the statement. Say what you will, it's stereotyping against a sex, and therefore sexism by definition. No distinction is made that it's the shitty men. And if any man were to protest against it, they would be labelled an aggressor and dismissed as mad for being challenged or called out when they are simply protesting unconcealed prejudice.

  • Sadly for me it looks like I'll need to go the DIY route with an esp32 board and an e-ink display, and drop any kind of stt + tts plans

    Latte Panda 2 or just wait a couple years. It'll happen eventually because it's so obvious it's literally unpatentable.

  • Magic

    In all reality, it is a ChatGPTitty "fine"tune on some datasets they hobbled together for VQA and Android app UI driving. They did the initial test finetune, then apparently the CEO or whatever was drooling over it and said "lEt'S mAkE aN iOt DeViCe GuYs!!1!" after their paltry attempt to racketeer an NFT metaverse game.

    Neither this nor Humane do any AI computation on device. It would be a stretch to say there's even a possibility that the speech recognition could be client-side, as they are always-connected devices that are even more useless without Internet than they already are with.

    Make no mistake: these money-hungry fucks are only selling you food cans labelled as magic beans. You have been warned and if you expect anything less from them then you only have your own dumbass to blame for trusting Silicon Valley.

  • Just give up hope. It's really not worth it.

    I loved Pop!_OS as it made Debian/Ubuntu extremely usable as a daily driver. Finally I got fed up with outdated package bullshit coming from different angles and went to Rocky. Wish I did it sooner.

    Appreciate System76, but they've dropped the ball hard and I don't think it's recoverable

  • Yeah you can't say Euphoria is good while also saying sexy female protag bad (idk if that's the specific "hit" you were referring to).

    Like fuck this conceot of delineating media based on sexual preference. It either has sexual content or it doesn't. As long as the content is above board, it's all just smut catering to different tastes and anyone who sees one as more appropriate than another is an asinine fool whose ability to vote and lack of critical thinking skills worry me.

    As for the actual topic at hand, censoring of a sexual aesthetic rather than smut, I'm actually quite pleased to see that there is such little difference in the attire but very disappointed with how far they went to censor something so fucking mild. It hasn't hampered the game, but it impeded the aesthetic resulting in a bruised product where the designers' creative vision has been adulterated. Imagine if they went back and changed the Bayonetta attire for the original game like this, how different would the character look and how would that shift the tone for that character and the atmosphere around them? Their sexuality and attire are directly representative of the character being portrayed. If the argument is that there is no meaningful backstory that ties to the character's appearance or sexuality, well that's a matter of either piss poor writing or intentional story "neglect" to hopefully set up for some sort of reveal, otherwise you're basically playing an erotic Flash game you found on some porn site that's probably sharecropping your family's shared PC out to various wannabe hackers.

    Anyway, nobody can pretend they did a good job censoring the artwork of a foreign studio to cover some cleavage and hips when wannabe actors are being praised for their work on glorified cable smut-- idgaf that HBO was behind it, they're behind Max too and I fucking hate that garbage.

    And I'm convinced this is censorship. There was all this talk of censorship right up until the game's release, and now all of a sudden a change is made to the design last minute that obviously does not fit with the aesthetic. If this was "the version they'd wanted to show", I believe they would have at least left some sign or cleavage easily visible to keep the nuance in gameplay visuals. Instead, we have blatantly obvious censorship with half-assed lies to dispell any notion that there is more fresh drama to be mad about.

  • Red Hat

    No, you're angry at IBM. When news of the IBM acquisition broke, sector veteran colleagues I'm close with moaned and groaned that IBM was sure to do something to piss everyone off again, which was apparently their habit a couple decades back. Sure enough, they could not have been more accurate in their assessment.

    Turns out IBM is three hot messes in a trenchcoat and always has been. Hence why they have already lost the Quantum wars and likely the GenAI wars as well. One AI vet I know says they're posed to even lose the AI war altogether, which is pathetic given the groundwork provided by Watson alone.

  • Happens to me when I eat nothing but beef jerky like I did yesterday. Just woke up like ten minutes ago with a fat man locked and loaded, had to lift my leg to make sure the ordnance cleared the fuselage.

    Maybe it's digested fat? Idk I'm no nutritionist

  • you have to flip the mouse on it's back to charg it how tf is that logical

    nevermind the fact that you don't need to make legacy compatibility a hassle. The Darwin kernel should still maintain backwards compatibility and if it doesn't then LMAO
