They train it on basically the whole internet. They try to filter it a bit, but I guess not well enough. It’s not that they intentionally trained it in religious texts, just that they didn’t think to remove religious texts from the training data.
If it wasn’t the LLM it would be random letters on license plates that drive by, or the coindence that red lights cause traffic to stop every few minutes.
You don’t think having a machine (that seems like a person) telling you “yes you are correct you are definitely the Messiah, I will tell you aincient secrets” has any extra influence?
We have ai models that “think” in the background now. I still agree that they’re not sentient, but where’s the line? How is sentience even defined?
The chrome tab groups were what I missed the most when I switched, so I’m happy with the change. It’s a little jankier feeling as in chrome it’s harder to drag a tab out of the group, while in Firefox if you move a tab to the end it’s hard to get it to stay in the group.
It would also be nice if any of it was themeable, but themeability in Firefox is a whole other problem.
It can work in the normal tab bar at the top
It looks like the ux is very different this time tho
I love it, it was basically the only thing I missed when I switched from Chrome to Firefox. I’ve reorganized all of my tabs and everything is so much cleaner than it was a few days ago.
Now we just need jxl, webgpu, and better themes!
Desmos scientific calculator isn’t open source but it is what I end up using most of the time. It just does float stuff though, it can’t handle something like (10100+1)-10100
It also doesn’t support nearly as many features as the graphing calculator does, for some reason. But it formats everything very nicely and you can copy and paste as latex
Linux is between the requirements of a raspberry pi pico and a raspberry pi zero I would say
Although some crazy person did get Linux running on an esp32 once
Italian style chickpea or lentil soup is always great, you can make them almost the same too (just swap out the legumes)
The Chinese market already has better EVs than Tesla for cheaper afaik. Teslas don’t sell well there anymore.
Blahaj.zone is an instance aimed at queer people, but it doesn’t have to prevent non-queer people from participating. I would imagine an instance aimed at women to be similar.
I know some people are suspicious of fedora specifically because of its ties with IBM.
Arch also can absolutely be installed just as quickly as any other distro if you use the archinstall script. I used it recently to install KDE plasma onto a Chromebook from 2017 and everything worked exactly as expected, I haven’t had any issues with stability so far. Can absolutely be done in under half an hour. It ofc doesn’t come with the advantage of understanding exactly how your system is set up, like you would if you did it yourself.
The last time I did that (slightly different setup with xfce) though I broke it somehow and ended up with if freezing often when booting, although I’m still not sure if that was a hardware problem or not, but it doesn’t seem to be happening anymore. I also broke something with the audio jack somehow around then during an update, but chromebooks have weird audio drivers and you need to use this script maintained by (afaik) one person in their spare time. Anyways I would expect a framework laptop to handle it better as it’s newer and more common hardware.
The itch.io desktop app is open souce, but afaik the website isn’t. It does actually allow devs to get paid though, through charges or encouraged donations. There are some games you can get from flathub or the standard linux package managers, but they don’t have any built in features to pay devs.
https://flathub.org/apps/category/game
The expensive part of hosting game files, pages, and mods isn’t really any different from what flathub or similar already does. I suppose cloud saves would require extra storage space, but I’d imagine an open source game store could charge for their cloud while also allowing p2p or a selfhosted cloud, which is a similar model to what a lot of open source projects with cloud features already do. That would be a fairly sustainable monetization scheme for the store I think, especially with donations on top of that.
Devs can be paid partially through donations, although I doubt that would be nearly enough without a system like Itch.io has where it always shows a payment screen that you have to click through before you can download the game. There are a couple more models, ArmorPaint is open source but you have to pay for binaries or compile it yourself, and Aesprite is source available (restrictive license) but takes a similar model. Overall though I don’t think open source games will ever become the standard, even for indie devs, and even if open source platforms do.
When I first joined lemmy local AI was pretty popular here. Popular opinion has shifted a lot in the anti-ai direction recently, especially after the recent internet-wide outcry after OpenAI announced that model a few weeks ago. Corporate AI was never liked, but there used to usually be popular comments defending local AI.
It’s probably partially because the last notable advancement in local image gen AI was about 8 months ago now IMO (the flux model release). Also, ‘open source’ ai has become progressively less of a thing, with most models (even ones with released weights that you can run locally) released under restrictive licenses, probably turning away the foss-leaning fediverse population.
I think I have personally realized, since then, that the benefits of from-scratch image generation on society as a whole are almost nonexistent and “it’s fun to play with for a few hours” isn’t enough really justification for the potential harm to artists.
Someone got some cut down versions of Stable Diffusion to run on a Pi Zero 2 a couple years ago ($15 computer)
Apparently it takes between 30 minutes and 10 hours to generate an image, but it’s still fairly impressive that it can do that at all
lol, I switched to a steam deck from using a linux-ified chromebook for travel gaming so I see what you mean
How powerful is it? Just based on the graphics of what I’d seen I assumed it was around the same.
Anyways, I think the switch can get away with worse hardware as every game is specifically optimized for that exact soc, while the steam deck has to play games optimised for a PS5 or a midrange gaming PC for example.
Can you really prove any of that though?
