This is the root cause of why so many people hate AI. They are just salty that we don't need them anymore.
>>106973708>we have built whole machines that can help us do these things and they have already become so entrenched in our way of life they may as well be part of usBut they aren't. Unless it's a pacemaker, it's a collective, and disastrous imo, choice for everyone to replace irl socializing with the virtual echo chambers.>we are the force of nature itself naturally selecting for the best and most efficient path forwardI agree we're a force of nature. However I think the "efficient" way forward is just service to global capital; to homogenize the world out of all meaning, because meaning after all is immaterial nonsense to some people.>things beyond our control will forever come crashing down upon our heads and once more we will dig out from our burrows to reclaim the scorched earth and rebuild, smarter, stronger and more powerful than we can possibly imagine right now.On an individual level yes, it's good to accept what's out of one's control. However the e-waste, internet and AI being maintained is a conscious decision by world leaders. This consolidation could be reversed so the world doesn't get scorched.>don't you want to leave something to mark you were here?Maybe a grave. Nothing is forever.It's a stretch, not sure if you think this way, but I don't think a museum is good to maintain.Crafts, ways of life etc that are sustainable, are an expression of culture should be passed down as a living art with /some/ trad institutions and museums for reference for some form of keep the past preserved in artefacts as well.Replacing human crafts is the museumification of culture.

>>106974266>But they aren't. Unless it's a pacemaker,wheelchairs? shoes? bicycles? airplanes? CARS? technology is not just beep boop bing bong wahoo shit it's everything we have created. you right now would not even be able to have this conversation without several layers of human technology. you would have no money, no job, and you would sit on your ass all day with nothing to do because without technology you can't even sow seeds to grow food. live one day without using one piece of technology, i dare you. no other creature on this planet lives in such close symbiosis with inanimate objects it has created solely for the purpose of making life suck a little less. every other being on this planet struggles in a short life, dies an ignominious death and rots back into the ground where it lays, like a vegetable. but when a plant does this it spreads its seeds. what do we leave but empty corpses? the technologies we have created are our seeds and they inspire future generations of ourselves to grow from them.> it's a collective, and disastrous imo, choice for everyone to replace irl socializing with the virtual echo chambers.we are discussing an immature technology that has only been around for less than a decade and trying to compare it to thousands of years of human society. we're not quite at the point where you can have a meaningful conversation with a computer, but we are close. there is no danger to us in trying to bridge that gap. there are 8bill retards on this planet, and some of them will think like you and some of them will think like me. we are not computers, and consensus is never that easily achieved.a rush of unskilled people who wish themselves to be great artists are simply playing around with a fun new tool. we haven't lost meaning, we are hunting for new meanings. when the mammoth died out, did grug mope about that the world had lost all meaning? no, he simply found more tasty animals to eat, and more creative ways to kill them

>>106974341It's interesting to me that most logos you see have the logo competely separate from the company name / logotype. In my mind it would be good to enmesh the two somehow, like have one of the letters resemble something related to what you do, e.g. the letter O resembling a snowflake if you're selling fridges.I suppose there's good reasons for not doing that.

Here is the bug;https://issues.chromium.org/issues/40451869If you use the webaudio api to decode audio for playback will cause memory to leak in all chromium browsers. Even if you reset the tab, go to another page, manually clear out all your audio sources, buffers and etc (the latter slows the leak but doesn't stop it). The only way to clear the memory is to completely close the tab;.If you are making a media player or a game you are fucked. one minute of 44.1kh audio is 80mb a minute. 10mins of audio is 800mbs of ram.Firefox does not have this problem but I want my game to be played by as many people as possible and some people still use chrome because they don't know any better. How can I deal with this issue since the incompetent retards and google refuse to fix it?Thank you for reading my blog.

I'm stuck between Ubuntu/Gnome versions.22 doesn't have working thumbnail pickers24 and 25 removed a folder's Open with... VS Code option, and takes 3 more clicks. I do this enough for it to be annoying.25.10 doesn't work with tiling shell and the default tiling is frustrating to use.25.10 doesn't work well with wine (because of no x11?)I might actually return to 22. It's the most comfy, requiring little to no tweaks.I don't want to touch a different DEs because I know I'll find a bunch of other devils that are worse time sinks.

Good luck!

Is there a list of applications on KDE that most users don't need and can be easily defined as bloat for me to remove? I want to clean my processes and drive a little, and frankly I fear removing things I don't understand fully. For example Kmix doesn't even to work, it's that other audio interface that I can't seem to find the name for that's handling all the audio controls. Unless the system is running two instances of Kmix for some reason I reckon I'm better off uninstalling Kmix.
