As long as they aren't putting ridiculous terms on model usage like SD3 and the weights are provided I'm happy with it

This often happens to me on Windows with the Index so it might not even be a Linux specific issue

It's good to be skeptical of institutions, just don't go dismissing or accepting science based on ideological/class association, that's how you get shit like Lysenkoism

more limited risk

Doubt

I want to do stuff

Total water absorption doesn't matter that much because the significant thing is surface texture. If you're going to dry them anyway you might as well instead wash them without directly pouring water on them.

This assumes you're going to fry them. If you want raw mushrooms in a salad, it's going to be a lot more noticeable.

Running mushrooms under water makes them soggy, that's just reality. You can get them just as clean wiping them with a slightly damp paper towel or cloth without that happening.

"We immediately began to sink, they saw that… They heard us all screaming, and yet they still left us," he told the BBC.

"The first child who died was my cousin's son… After that it was one by one. Another child, another child, then my cousin himself disappeared. By the morning seven or eight children had died.

It replied that its staff worked "tirelessly with the utmost professionalism, a strong sense of responsibility and respect for human life and fundamental rights", adding that they were "in full compliance with the country's international obligations"

I used to write that kind of stuff for a living when I was really poor and scraping by, it paid by the word and so low that you could realistically only crack minimum wage if you kept typing continuously and didn't stop to think or do any research.

Microsoft hasn’t detailed ESU pricing for consumers yet, but the company did previously reveal it will offer these extended updates to consumers for the first time ever

They're actually gonna make us pirate security updates huh

Really interesting article. The general idea seems to be that people having their access to banking shut down has been a real problem for a long time, and is most commonly imposed on marginalized groups, but people don't realize it's going on, and the people on the right making noise about this issue ignore where the bulk of the problem is.

This is sometimes how I feel when I appear on the 'anti-mainstream' 'free thought' media outlets. They want to hear about the financial censorship of the Freedom Convoy, but they don’t want to hear about restrictions on Aboriginal payments. This hints to a skew in their freedom of thought, and it’s certainly not open-minded. When they approach me, they’re trying to recruit that mercenary side of me who is nominally prepared to defend their narrow free thinking, but this poses an ethical dilemma, because their selective curation of what examples of payments censorship they’re prepared to ask about or listen to amounts to a silent form of censorship in itself. Selectively hearing, and amplifying, one set of injured voices - the Truckers - can be very similar to blocking another set out.

Firstly, yes, it’s very important to fight the general principle of payments censorship (and, by extension, to protect the cash system that provides a buffer agai nst it). Secondly, I must inform them that the actual chances of payments censorship being used against them is smaller than the chances of it being used against refugees, migrants, the homeless, or sex workers, who face recent real-world cases of financial censorship.

If there are two or more cell towers within range of the phone and they have access to those towers they can triangulate the location of the phone already.

Yes but only if it's actually secure and safe ie. fully open source

No, I mean, I'm saying I doubt they even really need the trucks, except maybe as an explanation of how they got the data legally.

I don't buy that they don't have direct access to the cell towers themselves

I think it’s an inherent part of not-face-to-face communication

I don't know about that, I've had many good arguments online and few face to face. In person people are generally going to put too much effort into avoiding conflict to fully or accurately express their possibly controversial thoughts. I think the tendency to talk past someone and take a very combative stance is mostly a culture issue rather than an anonymity one; bad arguments get praise and attention because people agree with it for tribalistic reasons, and treating the 'enemy' like people provokes criticism. People end up seeing argument as a vice, something you do purely as a way to vent, and not as a way of working through ideas and seeing new perspectives.

Was this "Unmoderated" in the sense of the classic Reddit move of first banning the moderators so they can ban the sub without saying why?

I think framing this as "refusing" to use AI is kind of weird. They believe in doing things the traditional way, great, I think games that use all hand-drawn nondigital art are also cool for going against the grain like that, and making a point of supporting artists is laudable, but it isn't like anyone is trying to force them not to.

Thanks, I've never been diagnosed or anything but it's something I've had trouble with all my life, kind of just learned to be very wary about various social situations because I'd get it wrong a lot.
