Does anyone here have practical advice or experience with prosthetics or exoskeletons?

    I'm guessing 3d printing would be the way to go since you can prototype quickly. You can eventually make it out of other materials with molds and cnc machines. Fusion 360 is free if you get the hobby version, it's my personal go to option but there is tinkercad and a few others as well.

  • US man, 81, sentenced to six months for creating giant hybrid sheep for hunting

    I read this article https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2024/10/01/clone-hybrid-sheep-montana-sentence/, it mentions it much later and I did miss the part that specified captive. But he also sold to a bunch of places, including private individuals and other breeders. It's not hard to imagine that some will make it into the wild even from captive grounds. He was told not to do it specifically for this reason.

    In 2014, Schubarth petitioned the state of Montana to allow Marco Polo argali into the state, but officials denied the request due to the potential for disease transmission to native species and the risk of the species establishing feral populations.

    Schubarth sold 11 sheep with one-quarter of Montana Mountain King’s genetics for $13,200 total to two people in Texas, prosecutors said. He also traded one of that sheep’s offspring for $10,000 and sold dozens of straws of its semen to breeders in other states.

    I guess I'm at fault in this though. Looking at it, I imagine nothing gets bred and then released into the wild. I don't know much about hunting since I consider it a disgusting hobby.

    You guys are kind of missing my point and hyper focusing on the word here.

    There is nothing inherently dangerous about the word sidealley but if you're at night with someone that is already fearful of the city and you tell them you are taking a sidealley, they might not be so willing.

    Someone that doesn't know how to drive well will probably avoid the bumpy and confusing sideroads.

    The word has negative connotation and it's use is benefiting Google. That's my main point, maybe I should of used less safe instead of dangerous.

    You can already do it but there isn't really any need for a blockchain. I personally use runpod but there's vast.ai and a few others.

    It's usually quite cheap.

    Side loading makes it seems like it's not going through the proper channels. You are loading it from the side while the play store is the right way.

    It implies the play store is the center.

    Sideload Sideroad Sidekick Sidecar

    Using side infront of something means it's lesser for the most part.

    Go ask your mom who had to deal with your limewire phase in high-school if you can "sideload" apps on her phone.

    You want sources or something, what are you expecting dude?

    You might be able to convert to hevc (x265) and trim it down by quite a bit.

    You will always lose a bit of quality converting though, even from 1080p to 1080p, but I consider it pretty acceptable for cartoons and things of that nature.

    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.

    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)

    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.

    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?
