  • Yes. That's exactly how we got the first image generating AIs - people took a huge amount of pictures and described in detail what's in there. That's how AI knows how to generate "a cat in a space suit standing on a moon" - there were a lot of pictures described "cat", "space suit", "standing", "moon" etc. and the AI distilled the common part of each image matching the description.

    And there are plenty use-cases to have a description of what's on an image. For example for searching through images based on what's in there.

  • Well, some jobs are probably being replaced. Like, I can imagine someone being paid to describe in detail what's in a picture and writing it down would be replaced pretty quickly.

    But if the article means programmers, devops, sysadmins etc., then hell no, there's no way the current iteration of AI can replace them and instead of spreading misinformation, the article authors should focus on real reasons the layoffs happen.

    But that doesn't bring as many interactions as doom news of companies replacing us with a smart text predict software, does it?

  • The year of Linux happened a long time ago. I assume you mean the year of Linux on desktop, in which case yes, it's been foretold.

  • Loved that game! Well, something with Babiลก is long overdue, especially since he's gonna win the next elections.

  • What did you use? I usually use Syncthing to get my files onto/from the Deck. I also use it to sync my mods, that way I have the same experience whether I turn on the PC or the Deck.

  • You can't, you have to move instances.

  • Can it hurt you, though? My guess would be every sane compiler and interpreter optimizes this.

  • Well, not what I was pointing at. It's pretty much an American thing to just use the preinstalled messaging app and pretend there are no others, that's why the whole blue bubble / green bubble drama is pretty much exclusive to the US.

  • Any chance you're American?

  • Loved that browser, it was so amazing compared to all the half-assed default browsers. Good old days of J2ME.

    I also used its bigger brother on Symbian because it rendered the web better, but it was way too memory-hungry.

  • The long answer is wrong. They read the parts that suit their agenda.

  • IIRC, this is allowed under GDPR. At least in my country it doesn't fall under the broad GDPR and a court ordered the company that did it first here to preliminary stop doing it while it's under investigation. But they're doing it again, which leads me to believe the court didn't find any legal basis to ban it.


    Just a side note, they are obligated to follow GDPR when dealing with EU customers. Even the US has to (or shut down the access for EU users as many US news sites did).

  • Game breaking bug that made it impossible to progress on the single save file I had. I won't be buying KCD 2. Also the CEO of the company is a massive cunt.

  • Hmm, now that you mention it, you got me thinking I'd actually like the Win11 UI on Linux (without the ads and tracking, of course).

  • That was kinda heavy sarcasm.

  • Hardcore Linux users would still not count it and would still wait for Linux on desktop to finally take off.

    Source: Linux has 6.73% share on desktop. Except 2.25 percent points are ChromeOS, which is not FOSS enough, so Linux only has 4.48% on desktop.

  • Not 3 for me, but I really love 5. 3 has way too outdated graphics for my tastes.

  • I only ever used SSH, so I don't know.

  • IIRC, that's exactly it. You can either use their GUI (which is not half bad) or you can use the docker command in the terminal after you install the package.
