Unique means one of a kind but is there a word that means uniquely unique?
  • Alexei Leonov is a monster of a man.

    Imagine being the first human to go out into space with nothing but a spacesuit, chilling and having a good time, only to find that your suit was not able to handle the pressure difference and having blown up so much you can't reenter the capsule, rendering you stuck on the outside.

    And once he got in just being like, "man, that'd make a great drawing".

  • Doing a "hack simulator" would likely be easier in other languages, so you will hopefully run into some problems regarding acquiring and presenting the information, which I imagine would give you a decent understanding of the flow of data in python.

    I'd say "Go for it", doesn't sound too advanced and not "hello world"-simple either.

  • Windows PCs can't sleep properly, and Microsoft wants it that way
  • Yup, that's the one.

    Had quite some problems with programs not cleaning caches properly and drives having weird behavior when accessed in offline state when they first introduced it, though I imagine it surely must have become more robust by now.

  • Windows PCs can't sleep properly, and Microsoft wants it that way
  • Mostly for not loosing unsavable work across transit. Though, Windows has kinda blurred the line between shutdown and standby, so now you can do neither (I guess you can still shutdown properly holding down the shift key while pressing the button, but who thinks about that?).

    But standby was indeed much more prevelant when booting your laptop took 2~5min.

  • I was thinking about Knights of Sidonia. They bough the rights while second season was being made, and while I'm not sure whether they also Labelled the first season as Netflix Original, they at least took it down from everywhere and instead put it on their own site.

    EDIT: Correction, as far as I can see, they bought the rights a month after the first season finished airing, and they did call the first season a Netflix Origin.

    When the second season aired, I got pretty butthurt that I not only couldn't see the new season on other sites than Netflix, but I couldn't even see the first season anymore!

  • 'Mænd har nogle meget store udfordringer, som bliver mere tydelige gennem hele vores liv'
  • Godt at se at der er nogle der gør et eller andet, for det er vel relevant, men jeg synes at ham Sebastian får formuleret sig selv ret uheldigt.

    • Hvad i alverden skal "transfer" referere til? Menneskehandel? At snakke om følelser? Måske noget med fodbold, da det bliver nævnt i kontekst? Det må næsten være noget med fodbold, ikke også?

    • "Hjerteviden som udtryk for kontakt med følelser og hjerte". Det har vi allerede et udtryk for, og det er "følelser". Hjerteviden er lidt noget andet, men jeg skal dog tilstå at det er sundt at kende sin hvilepuls og generelle blodtryk.

  • Would anyone like to AMA?
  • Not OP, and not native English, but going by this subs topic and my understanding of AMA (Ask Me Anything), OP's request doesn't sound outrageous in any way.

    Looking at the comments, I'm clearly missing something, so perhaps I could have you clarify this misunderstanding for me?

    Edit: looking at your answer to OP clears up my question. I also stumbled on OP's ambiguous spelling and had to assume what they meant, but thought there was something much worse at play after reading the comments. Kinda like "DM" can mean multiple things.

  • Mates, tell me your troubles
  • I do agree, though, you can be a pirate and still see the necessity in copyright no matter how warped it currently is, the kind who challenge copyright to change it and not just ignore it, those who try and keep the market healthy in their own unique way.

    Though, while having seen some, I'm still unsure how many and how vocal they are on this instance.

    EDIT: I guess I did butcher this comment really bad, that's what I get for trying and compress 4 paragraphs down to 2. I'm pretty much trying to say, that while copyright, as it is handled right now, is most definitely counter productive to society, the idea behind it does have some merit. It's not a black/white situation. Furthermore, there exist pirates who also try and care about the market, not necessarily focused on copyright, but simply caring about those whose content they pirate.

  • Mates, tell me your troubles
  • I guess it comes down to whether AI should have the same rights as humans, or rather those of a tool.

    The idea is not to stop making diffusion art, but to limit it a little, so the tool cannot be used to shamelessly copy a distinctive artists style without consent. Similar limitations would also be healthy for other disciplines, except perhaps those which generally are not considered hobbies or recreation.

    And you are right about relevancy to the post, though I think it's good to talk about this as it is a technology which soon will fill a considerable amount of our lives, and the instance kinda focuses on it.

  • Mates, tell me your troubles
  • MLAIs need to be trained before they can be used, and the data an MLAI might need depends on the type of AI. The diffusion AIs often rely on artwork which mostly is gathered from artists trying to make a living off of their hobby - the professional "hobby" artists kinda being the forerunners of what many envisioned AI would hopefully lead to in the future.

    Now, if we carelessly use these artist's artwork, copyright or not, we might remove or inhibit their ability to live off what they love, which would be a giant blow against those of us fighting for AI as a relief of forced work and enabler of personal freedom.

    My concern is therefore, in a world where many use AI without consideration for enshittfication of others lives, do the models often used on dbzer0's communities just scrape the internet of training material, or do those who make and sanitize the datasets ask the artists for permission/use openly available (using the equivalent of the unlicense) material instead?

    dbzero0 is a instance which represents copyleft, but my impression is that it also represents the want for more personal control and being able to do whatever one wants. Though, I'm unsure if the general community consensus is to do whatever one wants even at the expense of other common people (everyone for themselves, kinda like the big corps do), or if the community consensus is to do whatever one wants while making sure that others also have the ability to do so (FOSS, commissioning the little man instead of buying from big corps, donating money or labor to small communities instead of being the product of some large social media platform).

    I really do like being part of dbzer0, but this question on the instance's stance has held me back from recommending the instance in my circle of friends.

  • Mates, tell me your troubles
  • It feels like there has not been a whole lot of drama while I've been here. I really like that - the ability to scurry off to the other instances and witness their happenings, and then return to our own little safe haven.

    We (as an instance, according to my observations) do appear to have some run-ins with a certain other instance every now and again, but they don't appear too much of an annoyance if you don't interact or engage their taunts.

    I love that @[email protected] is also a contributor of fed-related projects. Makes it feel a little more personal.

    If I were to note anything bad, it might be that I feel reluctance towards the stable diffusion communities. Mostly because I'm not sure whether their training data is ethically sourced. But that and more is a concern I have regarding AI in general, as automating our hobbies was kinda the opposite many initially wanted it for, namely automating labor so we can instead do our hobbies. Not I can judge anyone automating a hobby, as I'm kinda skimping the edge myself, but we, us who work with MLAI, should generally try and push away from any dystopian futures.

    All in all, I'm happy being here. Thank you @[email protected] for providing this space! And for everyone else on this instance, don't forget to appreciate it, either by donations or labor, as that is how we keep such spaces running.

  • Labeled album hosting solutions

    Good day everyone. I've been looking for a solution to host my photos/images, containing 100+ year old photos from a small island community and it's inhabitants.

    More specifically, I'm looking for a solution which allows pleasent browsing and viewing of the albums and the photos within, and has labels/fig text for each photo.

    I've looked into Pixelfed, as it seems to be easily integratable with other fedi services and can be self hosted (fedi integration is not a must), but found that while it has collections, the photos within cannot be easily traversed. Similarly, it has albums, but those do not have a proper overview and appear to lack per-image-text.

    If Pixelfed had a way to enable the ease of navigating the images in an album to the collections, such as moving to the next image in the collection by use of arrow keys (or simply a link) instead of having to go to the collection overview and clicking on the next image, then it would be ideal, but I have not been able to achieve this so far.

    What kind of solutions are you using for sharing old or interesting albums of photos on the internet which require explanation?
