What a weak ass loser.
  • I'm not sure what lupen pretending means? And now I am actually just wasting your time. I'm at work and getting paid so I don't really mind wasting mine tbh.

    I also didn't get the question mark comment before, is not making sense your way of avoiding having to face the fact you might just be wrong? Big ego I guess?

  • What a weak ass loser.
  • Sadly, I'm at the point where anybody is better than trump and his crazies. Ideally, we would have a proper political system that didn't force us into one camp or the other but you have to be realistic about things.

  • What a weak ass loser.
  • You can click on my history. I'm left enough that I'm essentially a commie.

    I'm voting for whoever the Dems want at this point, hell I'd vote for bush if he switched sides and the Dems decided on him.

    I don't participate in circle jerks however, no matter who it benefits.

  • What a weak ass loser.
  • When you said context, I took it to mean the context of the word itself. I thought, before watching the video, that you meant college wouldn't make any sense in that phrase.

    I'm not even close to being a moderate, but I'm also not a hypocrite that's going to get all emotional about innocuous things, that's literally one of the reasons I hate the whole republican party.

    Grow up bro, not everyone that challenges you on the internet is automatically some trump loving loser that can only be wrong. We aren't all knowing sages just because we choose the good side, it's a fucking easy choice to make anyways.

    Write both words on a paper and take turns reading them as it comes up.

  • What a weak ass loser.
  • I'm saying that in this context, both college and colored both make sense. The context isn't damning at all.

    The whole argument is monumentally stupid for sure but nonetheless, this is one of those situations where you will hear what you want to hear. I heard colored the first time and college the second time.

    It might very well be this effect at play and nothing else.

    It seems like a lot of people are responding very emotionally to what could very well be nothing but an auditory trick.

  • What a weak ass loser.
  • Well the context was him talking about a sorority so it's not really at all damning. I hate fox news as much as the next guy but it could easily be one or the other. If you listen to it while saying either word in your mind, they both slip right in.

    I'm more frustrated by the fact he mentioned healthcare as if to imply she didn't do enough? When have Republicans ever been pro-healthcare? It seems like blatant manipulation.

  • OpenAI could lose $5 billion in 2024
  • That's completely true but the model that is beating OpenAI and Claude is 405b parameters. Those small models are catching up very fast and it's impressive what can be run on consumer GPU but you need a monster rig to run the full 405b even at small quants.

  • AI trained on AI garbage spits out AI garbage.
  • That would go against the principal of the archive imo but regardless, if you take away all means of acquiring data freely, you are just giving companies like OpenAI and Google who already have copies of it an insane advantage.

    AI isn't going away, we need to make sure we have free access to it as to not give our whole economy to a handful of companies.

  • Diesel-smelling
  • I'm really tired of this pervasive fantasy where people actually think we can get rid of all cars and bring public transport to the masses in the space of a year.

    We live in a car centric society and changing that is going to take a decade at the minimum.

    EVs are our best solutions currently, we don't have time to wait for trains or hydrogen. We should absolutely start trying to phase cars out completely but that doesn't negate the fact that saying "EVs don't help" is essentially being an oil barons mouthpiece.

  • Is there any actual standalone AI software?
  • You need a GPU for any kind of performance.

    For text I suggest: Ollama backend - command line interface, very easy to download models with one line of code. Supports most models and you can talk with the model inside the terminal so it's stand alone OpenWebUI - easy install with docker and is meant to work easily with ollama. Comes with web search features and uploading pdfs. A bunch of different community tools and modules are available.

    For img I suggest either: Automatic1111 - Traditional UI using gradio. Lots of extras you can download through the UI to do different things. ComfyUI - Node based UI, a bit more complicated but more powerful than automatic1111

    For models, you can go on civitai and just download whatever you need and drop it into their respective folders for both auto and comfy.

    For text, there's also LMStudio which is very user friendly. It is closed source and much slower than ollama from my experience though. I have a 4060 in my laptop (8gb VRAM) and I'm getting an image every 2 secs about using stable diffusion 1.5 models and text speed is on par with chatgpt with the smaller 8b-9b model. For text I suggest gemma2 which is probably the best small model out right now.

  • Polyphasic sleep
  • For the first week, it will feel like you are skipping sleep. It's basically rewiring your body to go straight into REM sleeping when it normally takes a few hours but that rewiring takes time.

    I was taking the scheduled naps and everything, it just doesn't give any relief for the first week.

  • Meta won't offer future multimodal AI models in EU

    Meta's issue isn't with the still-being-finalized AI Act, but rather with how it can train models using data from European customers while complying with GDPR — the EU's existing data protection law.

    • Meta announced in May that it planned to use publicly available posts from Facebook and Instagram users to train future models. Meta said it sent more than 2 billion notifications to users in the EU, offering a means for opting out, with training set to begin in June.

    • Meta says it briefed EU regulators months in advance of that public announcement and received only minimal feedback, which it says it addressed.

    • In June — after announcing its plans publicly — Meta was ordered to pause the training on EU data. A couple weeks later it received dozens of questions from data privacy regulators from across the region.

    The AI-focused COPIED Act would make removing digital watermarks illegal (as well as training any kind of AI on copyrighted content)

    www.theverge.com The AI-focused COPIED Act would make removing digital watermarks illegal

    The new bill is the latest in a wave of AI-related legislation.

    The AI-focused COPIED Act would make removing digital watermarks illegal

    A bipartisan group of senators introduced a new bill to make it easier to authenticate and detect artificial intelligence-generated content and protect journalists and artists from having their work gobbled up by AI models without their permission.

    The Content Origin Protection and Integrity from Edited and Deepfaked Media Act (COPIED Act) would direct the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to create standards and guidelines that help prove the origin of content and detect synthetic content, like through watermarking. It also directs the agency to create security measures to prevent tampering and requires AI tools for creative or journalistic content to let users attach information about their origin and prohibit that information from being removed. Under the bill, such content also could not be used to train AI models.

    Content owners, including broadcasters, artists, and newspapers, could sue companies they believe used their materials without permission or tampered with authentication markers. State attorneys general and the Federal Trade Commission could also enforce the bill, which its backers say prohibits anyone from “removing, disabling, or tampering with content provenance information” outside of an exception for some security research purposes.

    (A copy of the bill is in he article, here is the important part imo:

    Prohibits the use of “covered content” (digital representations of copyrighted works) with content provenance to either train an AI- /algorithm-based system or create synthetic content without the express, informed consent and adherence to the terms of use of such content, including compensation)

    "Put this in your mouth son, it will help with the fever"

    I didn't have the heart to tell him what the gag was really for as I watched the bite mark ooze puss.

    best app for lemmy?

    The one I'm using is becoming so buggy to the point of being unusable. It was never really great tbh, what are most people using?

    As an added question, are bookmarks associated with the lemmy account or the app?

    Edit: I'm on android, currently using Jerboa.

    Sentient spiders

    I've just finished A Deepness in the Sky by Vernor Vinge. It was amazing and coincidentally my two last books where children of time(1 and 2) and (as to not spoil the reveal) a certain book involving spiders/crabs that live in high pressure environment.

    I'm thoroughly enjoying the theme I have going on even if it was purely accidental, what would be some good recommendations involving sentient spider to pursue next?
