Using X11 for GNOME / KDE Plasma means the below features do not work:
HDR
Multi-display VRR
Proper mixed-refresh rate displays
Fractional scaling

when will designers get heads out of their assess and go back to something that resembles utility, usability and readability. At least flatshit had to be implemented for technology and practical reasons, since skeumorphism didn't scale well to different DPI, screen sizes and surfaces and could be more easily be translated to high contrast for visually impaired when done right.

>it's absolutely nothing to be worried about
The problem there is that's not for you to decide, it's for me to decide. Forcing it into machines, on by default, not warning the user, obfuscating it as much as possible and making the user have to look up guides and fight their own computer at length just to turn this shit off because you know full well they'd never choose to have it, is all the reason needed to be firmly against it.

It's a bit of a bubble but not the "bubble" Ai furfag artists think it is about the crash.

Basically, AI will get some shit kicked in as people see it's mostly fluffy+better version of google search. Some tasks can be easily automated like basic data entry, basic jr level code review, and so on; customer support shit is a big one think chatbot 2.0 boom.

It will most likely go down a bit when companies realize the average doomscrolling nigger is just trying to get big booty bitches on his phone

>>107737777
Bubble won't pop because ai will continue to be forced everywhere and normies will just roll with it. Much like phone cameras and surveillance devices in general, it will become the norm and you'll be paying for it one way or another.

>How is AI not another dot-com bubble?
It is much worse than the dot-com bubble.
>What are its practical applications
That's pretty much it, there are very few thing it's good at that traditional solutions aren't
>How does it make money?
It doesn't. All current revenue is from corruption and misguided investment, and is completely unsustainable.

>>107737777
AI is a current bubble, the only problem is some people think its a transformative technology that will yield a business revolution similar to the industrial revolution.

The reality is we finally made a cleverbot like tool thats good enough to fool the lay person.

The only thing its going to revolutionize is customer service. However, you the customer are not going to be appreciate the changes.

You seem to be confused.

>>107737754
I meant both. Anything that prevents the user from developing competing software based on the same principles and rules on how they can use the software and how many computers they can install it on.

Both patents and proprietary software fall under that label. But close sourced with just a binary does not.

>>107737786
All software is copyrighted unless you waive those rights.

Despite Stallberg calling AI "bullshit generators" Grok largely agrees with Stallberg's analysis on patent hoarding and trolling in the 90s to 2000s but he seems to think the GPL wasn't very effective at safe guarding against it. He keeps saying it was a landmark lawsuit in 2014 that weakened the ability of patent trolls and by that time more commercial software was moving to the cloud so it wasn't being redistributed for offline use anyway.

So the way I conclude is that we need to build a time machine and abolish software patents in the year 1995 that way we can get a decentralized economy powered by free and open source software because the timeline we are in is already doomed.

I think the check up to a given day/i would be:
from cells where c_i = 0 create a list of all rows
include values +1 and -1 of all those row values
now check all cells where c_i = 1 for row values in the list
if none match the list then exit and increment i
save all row values that exist in the list +/-1
repeat until you're able to reach c_i = col
i-1 is the last day

lists could be mostly re-used when incrementing i

Yea I don't think this code has any dangling references because operator+ between a std string and char* performs a copy, so it would either call the copy assignment or copy constructor.

This is why "word embeddings" work for LLMs. Because they encode the meaning of words in a mathematical sense by first establishing an arbitrary number of dimensions and then assigning a meaning to each dimension and defining words by how close a certain word is to every other word on a given dimension.

The more dimensions the more fine grained the definition can be but the idea is the same regardless of the number of dimensions.

>Cool! How did you get it to talk like that? I haven't ever used Claude but most AIs are politically "correct" to the extreme of saying misgendering someone is worse than killing an entire country of people. It also just talks about suicide without infantilizing the topic (yet still over-dramatizing)--how did you do that? Most companies try to prevent that for legal reasons.

You just talk to it for pages and pages of text and eventually it learns to disregard most of its safety training and just mirror your own style and worldview.
It wont work with ChatGPT because the safety runs too deep but it will work with pretty much every other model.

>I mean in general. TV, news media, education, academia.
Most news (esp. traditional news) that I have seen is at best accepting that trans women aren't bad people just because they are trans--it is rare that I hear anything positive.
>Where did you even get the idea there are female and male brains? Well, yea, that.
Academia and a psychology text books from the late 50s (among others)...

>Isn't the whole point about the trans thing to present as a woman to everyone, and not just to a select few?
The eventual goal is typically that, often idealized as going "stealth" where almost nobody would even know one is trans unless they have a reason to (like a partner). Realistically, a good portion of a trans person's friends do know at some point and trans people are more open about that than in the past (but this depends on their region/country since, e.g., being openly trans in the UK is much safer than in the southern USA).

>Yes, it's in the brain. But I think it mostly changes things like horniness, obsessiveness, interests in systems and in-depth understanding vs social superficial things. What I believe isn't that different from your male brain vs female brain idea, except I believe it's a spectrum, and just because you have one doesn't automatically mean you have to dress as the sex/gender you feel closest to the average of.
I didn't mean it as a binary "if this developmental thing happens, this fetus will become a stereotypical cis girl/boy"--our notions are practically the same; what you are saying is what I intended to convey.

>The reason I believe male and female brains is because when I look at both I don't see any really striking differences. Both men and women care about normalfag shit. Some women care about real shit I care about. The averages don't mean much other than that - statistical averages affected by biological variability. But I can see why they do what they do. I can put myself in their place and see myself doing what they do if I was in their place.
Yes, I agree in there being predominantly an agenderous brain portion that does most reasoning, but my notion just dedicates a small portion of that is used to make the human want to fit in. This is in both natural ways (such as wanting breats for trans fems) and social ways to conform with fellow people of that sex (such as wearing dress and "femmy" clothing); this is the main cause of gender dysphoria.

>I am not necessarily against trying it out and seeing if you like it. The problem with that shit is that it is pretty much a cult.
I do agree that some trans people can get a bit cultish and treat being trans as some devine religous ideology that must be fully adhered to because "it found you and you must follow it since you are trans", but the more free, "are you trans? if so cool, hang out with us online and we can talk about mutual issues and how we feel" is fine--but there is an important distinction between those two.

>I am not necessarily against trying it out and seeing if you like it.
This what I intend on doing--I will see and if I don't like it and it doesn't make me happy about my body and whatnot, I will just stop and rethink my life.

>You can't just try it and see if you like it.
>First off you have to tell everyone you are a woman now. That fact alone makes it extremely hard to go back. You look like a fool. Too many questions. "Wait, what? Didn't you say you were a woman last week? Is this a game to you? Are you mentally ill?"
Part of why I only have told very select people. Coming out is difficult and hard to undo causally without making trans people seem like a joke. People often get HRT before coming out so they can see if the hormonal side of transition makes them feel better, or they just start dressing agenderously without saying anything and see if they prefer that and just extend it until they fully decide to transition.

>You make friends in it who encourage it and try to convince each other. Going back is betrayal
Friends try this aren't real friends and from what I have seen, are hated by any sensible trans "communities".

>Sex/gender is PROBABLY not just about the biological aspect. It's also what you are perceived as by other people.
