Huh, TIL. Thanks!

A Google Image search for eggplant seeds shows something much larger than what OP’s talking about.

Meta’s AI policy chief who voluntarily enlisted for the IDF in 2009 under a program which enables non-Israeli Jews who aren’t eligible for military conscription to join the Israeli army.

“There are much greater models [that we can skim a 30% fee from]”

I really like the aesthetic, but the gameplay looks pretty much identical to every other extraction shooter I’ve seen. I feel like that’s such a niche genre that already has a lot of big contenders, so it just seems like a weird move for Bungie to invest so heavily into this genre without offering anything substantially different.

You could look into getting some cable channels as a pretty cheap and easy solution. They’re just plastic half-tubes that you can bundle the cables into and stick to the wall, so you could just have one pipe that runs up the wall to the back of the TV. You can paint them to match the wall and hide it a bit, too.

I think we still rank pretty far behind even Lemmy Koopa in the search results.

Drop some Mentos in it.

I’ve heard this before, but I never understood how people find this easier. It’s still the exact same maze, you just swap the “start” and “goal” labels.

There was fine print at one point during the stream that specified that 4K will be limited to 60 FPS.

You gotta press the C button first, to ask them.

It is the food of the sea, after all.

Just for what it’s worth, you don’t need CSAM in the training material for a generative AI to produce CSAM. The models know what children look like, and what naked adults look like, so they can readily extrapolate from there.

The fact that you don’t need to actually supply any real CSAM to the training material is the reasoning being offered for supporting AI CSAM. It’s gross, but it’s also hard to argue with. We allow for all types of illegal subjects to be presented in porn; incest, rape, murder, etc. While most mainstream sites won’t allow those types of material, none of them are technically outlawed - partly because of freedom of speech and artistic expression and yadda yadda, but also partly because it all comes with the understanding that it’s a fake, made-for-film production and that nobody involved had their consent violated, so it’s okay because none of it was actually rape, incest, or murder. And if AI CSAM can be made without actually violating the consent of any real people, then what makes it different?

I don’t know how I feel about it, myself. The idea of “ethically-sourced” CSAM doesn’t exactly sit right with me, but if it’s possible to make it in a truly victimless manner, then I find it hard to argue outright banning something just because I don’t like it.

There are some devices that do this, but as you’ve already noted, they’re crazy expensive. There’s cheap(er) ways to accomplish the same thing, though.

Assuming you don’t need to do any heavy-duty computing on either screen, you could probably get away with a very cheap laptop for the primary display, and something like a Wacom display tablet for the touchscreen element. I’m not sure how compatible such touchscreen displays are with Chromebooks, but most Chromebooks easily have Linux installed on them, which I’d imagine has much better support. Or pretty much any low-spec Windows laptop would also work just fine.

You could probably get away with a decent setup like this for the $500-600 range. The tablet could rest over the keyboard of the laptop, or if you’re clever with drafting and have access to a 3D printer, you could probably easily print yourself a mount of some sort to secure the touch display over the laptop keyboard to avoid pressing keys and give it a more intentional design. I don’t know how well using an on-screen keyboard would feel, so something modular like this, where you could easily expose the real keyboard without too much fuss, may be a good route to take.

Just use the calendar on your phone. Set an event for a year from now titled “Go back and see if I was right” with a link to the comment in the description.

Food delivery scammers will often do this and blur out their whole street. That way, when they report to their Uber Eats that they never got their order, the support team can’t compare the driver’s delivery photo to anything and will usually refund the meal because of it.

This is my thought on it, too. I don’t disagree with any of the point OP is making, but I think a larger issue is people misusing ActivityPub platforms and trying to make them into something they’re not. It’s not meant to be a messenger, it’s not meant for privacy. Everything being public and transparent is part of the core design of the Fediverse. The idea of private groups/posts on the Fediverse seems counterintuitive to me.
