    That's...not proving a point, that's vandalism.

    Ooh, didn't know it was possible to specify the desktop like that. Maybe I'll try it in a VM someday for fun.

    I quickly learned to symlink certain things (usually the least-updated ones) to folders in $HOME, and put together some bash scripting to copy stuff back and forth. By the time I h…

    At one point in the very early 2000s my HDD failed and I was diskless for a while. I used Knoppix to be able to run things using a floppy to store my configs. I've been using Linux…

    Adorable little game, works very well! In today's hole I found a little shortcut by bouncing back from the starting position into just before the little "house" and managed to comp…

    I use LXQt with virtual machines, is it good for using on bare metal too?

    Makes perfect sense, in nature you have a lot of both practical and odd functionality out of filling "bags" with air or liquid. This is a pretty cool approach. If they can improve …

    >The fact that SonicDE's stated mission is to preserve X11 support is itself a warning sign. Why is it a warning sign? Sounds very useful to keep X11 support for machines that have…

    I got $HOME in a huge HDD because it was cheaper. I guess we belong to the cool kids club now?

    Oh wow, I use Pandoc fairly extensively, and have my own templates, and I never knew you could make things as colorful as some of these. Oh no, inspiration has arrived. Guess I kno…

    I do the same thing, I never really noticed what submissions are high rank or not, I just come for my own interests.

    People have gotten so intense with the anti-AI sentiment that I hope this doesn't end up guiding people to places where they can exercise violence "for a just cause".

    Raise your hand if you got Megid without a guide. I love Phantasy Star I-IV (except III, mostly everyone agrees it's too flawed and wacky despite some good ideas). I never got into…

    There isn't enough noise about this kinda news. People need to learn to distrust such systems and exposing failings such as this one is a good way to do it. We aren't going to be f…

    It's not only not been proven, but the island man stuff and testimony of people like Culkin suggest he actually did the opposite of doing bad things to children and was most likely…

    Hot take here, but I think the version of this experiment that used rat neurons instead of human neurons was more interesting. I can't look for the link right now but there's a vid…

    Maybe people are paying attention to those things because there's a need to disconnect from the real world and its problems for a while.

    Oh my god the source is so tiny! It's really hard to parse because of it being minified but I love it to bits.

    It's kind of like Wireworld, a cellular automaton type, similar to Conway's Life but more oriented to circuits. I always loved these things.

    I'm sorry to inform you that the mere automated pre-processing used in building of a training set will most likely disable any form of poisoning because the image is being altered …

    It's human intent. AI is technically another tool, and it can be used poorly (what people refer to "AI slop", using default settings, some LoRA and calling it a day) and it can be …

    This is more like it. Every dedicated artist I know does something else to pay the bills, from actual burger flippers to sysadmins like me. They will make time to draw things becau…
