  • that's why i said they were like military pants but short lol

    it's still the same style of pants and that's still how they're described, theses ones are just cut into shorts. military is just the term for the style of pants worn in dress uniforms. it doesn't mean every pair of pants in that cut are used by the military.

  • it's also damn slow and destructive if you're trying to fit it into a true professional workflow with deadlines. i work with programs like it professionally and I only use gimp when i find myself on a random computer that doesn't have anything else. it'll get the job done, pretty much any job, but it might be very slow and painful. as someone who DEFINITELY knows how to use gimp, i understand the op they're clowning more than i understand the 1 peer i know that's actually managing to make money with a fully foss workflow. I also happen to know he largely doesn't sleep to accomplish it.

    gimp and darktable and similar projects are great, but workflow efficiency is what they do after they finish adding features. that just never happens. it's not the exciting work.

  • privately held can be bad, but they aren't inherently so. it's possible for a decent person/idealogue to have a decent product that people want to buy at a fair price. they're just very easily beat out by bigger brands most of the time because they aren't ruthless like the big ones.

  • i think the line generally comes specifically at "publicly traded company" that's when everything other than "line go up" is thrown out. publicly traded companies are inherently bad for everyone but those who invest in them.

  • brother that was over a decade ago. that change happened almost a quarter of the internet's lifespan ago.

    they did that in 2009. YouTube only existed in that state for 2 years. so like 90% of YouTube's existence has not included the star rating.

  • or an in house solution. Sony is big enough to build out their own team for it. I could see that making sense. i think Sony probably has the best bet out of the companies that own all of the music. they could be positioned to be the only ones capable of making a music "ai"

  • think that's kind of the fate of all new things in today's world. if it can be used unscrupulously for money, someone will be doing that for tremendous profit. especially since new stuff usually isn't illegal, Even if it should be.

  • the crazy thing about placebo is just how effective it is. because yes, placebo could do that.

    we have piles of studies that prove beyond a doubt that placebo can measurably and significantly aid in the healing of physical injuries like broken legs. you don't Even need to believe in it. there's studies where patients are told they're being given a placebo that will do nothing, and they STILL got better faster than the group given nothing.

  • dry needing is a different thing. that's where they electrically simulate the muscles to like hyper massage them. it's kind of an extreme deep tissue massage. leaves me sore usually.

    it's not accupuncture, it's a medical sound practice primarily done by physical therapists.

  • sure, but the issue of the un never getting things done or doing the wrong thing is due to the influence and stalling done by states that oppose the common good for religious reasons or personal gain. in the long run that's what Palestine is likely to be.

    so again, i don't disagree with this move. it's necessary, but i also Foresee more problems in the future. nothing really for it, just a prediction.

  • honestly, as good as this may be in the short term, they've really just added one more highly Conservative religious state that will vote against the interest of the common good moving forward.

    I strongly support Palestine gaining statehood and for Israel to stop fucking with them (that extends far beyond the war), but that doesn't mean i like their ideals. i think there's a strong chance that this will cause problems moving forward and that conservatives will use that as ammunition.

    that said, this is the un finally really kinda doing its job for once. ending global conflict through diplomacy. can't say that's a bad thing.

  • that would be fair if these companies weren't incredibly profitable, only increasing that profit, and only using that profit to pay the executive and shareholders.

    it's just greed. they don't need the money.
