Well also I think this body type is and has always been attractive to the vast majority of people. Beauty standard are not very attainable (like you said, it's a status thing), but they aren't even what most people actually like.

This is actually a really interesting question. A modern LLM probably couldn't do it, but I wonder if something like Alphazero could?

My guess is that no current AI is capable, as it requires abstract reasoning and precise movement. But maybe in the next 5 years.

If you roll a set of dice, do you own the number?

I don't think it is a tool in the same sense that image editing software is.

But if for example you use a LLM to write an outline for something and you heavily edit it, then that's transformative, and it's owned by you.

The raw output isn't yours, even though the prompt and final edited version are.

I think the solution is just that anything AI generated should be public domain.

Probably the latter. I've been a two or three on the scale since before I used Arch or Firefox.

Exactly. I think a small, light and cheap battery plus a gas range extender for long trips makes way more sense than carrying around 2000 pounds of battery that only gets fully used once a year.

Firefox is really pretty customizable, more than most other browsers.

I've been using this theme: https://github.com/Naezr/ShyFox

Have you tried neovim? More powerful than nano, but still super fast.

When someone is inevitably executed for proprietary software, are you put to death for making that rule? Or does the executioner get executed (creating a feedback loop of executioners who must die)?

Not everyone's using Lemmy, how about Fediversary?

Why is this a bad things? It's just a meme. It's not like they were going to hire an artist for this.

Wow, care to tell more about what that was like? I'm aphantasic, and the idea of suddenly unlocking the ability to visualize is fascinating to me.

I'm between 4 and 5, and no, I don't need to. I can conceptualize things pretty well, I just can't do it visually.

Yes it's stupid, but try marketing 7 when your competition has 5000.

I agree with some of what you’re saying, but can you explain (in simple terms please) how the hard problem doesn’t exist? I’m not quite following. The subjective experience of consciousness is directly observable, and definitely real, no?

(I don’t think adding some metaphysical element does much of anything, and Penrose still doesn’t really explain it, just provides a potential mechanism for it in the brain. It’s still a real “thing”, unexplained by current physics though.)

Also, to your other point, my I believe everything is just an evolving wave function. All waves all the time, and we only perceive a slice of it. (Which has something to do with consciousness, but nobody really knows exactly how). The Copenhagen interpretation is just how the many worlds universe appears to behave to a conscious observer.

I don’t think it’s incompatible with many worlds, unless I’m misunderstanding something. The many worlds interpretation means that the observer doesn’t collapse the wave function, but rather becomes entangled with it. It only apparently collapses because we only perceive a “slice” of the wave function. (For whatever reason).

I think this is still compatible with Penrose’s ideas, just not in the way he presents it. Anyway, I think he’s not really explaining consciousness, but rather a piece of how it could be facilitated in the brain.

Here are my recommendations:

Bad North: Real time island defense with procedural islands and character permadeath.

Inscryption: Roguelite deck builder (but it’s more than that, hard to describe without spoilers. just play it)

I realize these might not be the exact type of roguelike you’re looking for, but I highly recommend them.

I think you might really enjoy using a tiling window manager on linux.

Really? I think it looks pretty good, better than last year's. I certainly would not get this color, though.

“Sober as a cat” is a funny expression, because they’re the only type of pet I can think of that gets drugs (catnip) for fun.

I agree about presidential drug testing though.
