    I’m convinced that the intentions you have don’t mater that much. It’s how well you’ve managed to solve your own problems that determines how fucked up your kid is going to be.

    This is not going to be a popular opinion around these parts, but I’d suggest using Ubuntu, at least at first. It’s the biggest distribution for beginners, is relied on by corporations that provide Linux options, and seems to “just work” most of the time.

  • LLMs are surprisingly great at compressing images and audio, DeepMind researchers find

    It probably is more like the LLM is able to „pack the truck much more efficiently“ and decompression should be the same.

    But I agree that the likely use-case of uploading all your files to the cloud, having it compress your files, and downloading the result which is a few kb smaller isn’t really practical time efficient or even needed at all.

    Business and the economy is doing pretty good atm tho. I feel like the whole reason for all these blatant cash grabs so many companies are doing rn, is because they made so much money last year they want to keep getting that much richer every year, which is plain stupid from a long term perspective if you ask me

    I’d personally seek out any good open source alternatives before trying anything else nowadays. I’m pretty happy with blender and krita now I’m starting to get back into animation and drawing. But I’m old, I don’t know if joung people would not simply choose the one that is free-ish and more popular and better supported

    Good point. All unity users are basically (small) businesses, which does make a difference in how they might react. But I still think the entire platform going under because of this decision is more wishful thinking (wishing that corporate greed is punished) then an inevitability at this point in time

    We’re here on lemmy and mastodon, but Reddit and twitter still have waaaay more users. Unities move has boosted the popularity of other (open source) alternatives, sure, and if I was a game dev I would transition, but most of the devs and studios are going to need a lot more incentive to abandon the tool they spend decades getting to know

  • @fediblock account of mastodon is shuttering operations due to their instance being silenced by mastodon.art.

    Read the threads and it looks like the @fediblock made a post claiming mastodon.art was abusing reporting. But the evidence seems flimsy at best, and could be deliberately cherry-picked at worst. In response, mastodon.art muted the instance of @fediblock, and they where then like “this ain’t worth it” and withdrew. I must note though that mastodon.art is an instance that is a known safe space for black people and other minorities and face lots and lots of harassment on the reg. No one is perfect, but I tend to side with them on this one given the “receipts” provided, and the likelihood of there being more harassment towards them.

    Well we perform pretty well with just two eyes, but the difference is that we are a highly skilled general pattern recognition machine that you just can’t recreate in software yet. A few lines diverging with a bigger and smaller circle under it? Guess that’s a truck going that way. Oh the lines are changing angles? Holy shit the truck is coming into this lane!!

    I don’t think Meta will find it a good use of their time to basically build automatic cross posting. People will do it manually with screenshooting and they need the social graph to measure if something is really rage inducing. And I don’t think mastodon users will care for threads posts if they’re not federated tbh

    Well we would be if everyone just blocked them like gab or truth social etc. But I guess mainly Rothko is considering federating which is why everyone is freaking out
