I've never used ChatGPT. I only used the initial novelty versions when they were just viewed as fun novelty things back in 2019 and a short while playing with AI Dungeon in 2020.
Same goes for image gen AIs, only used one of the novelty ones in like 2020-2021 once and then the NovelAI leak to make some weird art in 2022 and then did like 1 test prompt on some meme online platform.

I feel like an advanced lifeform in comparison to everyone else.

Just recently got a mac mini for free from my job. m4 pro chip, 24gb ram, 512gb ssd. Booted it up, set everything up, aaaaand what the fuck:

>don't have a 1500 dollar display directly from apple? don't have the 5k resolution equivalent from dell? wanna get a nice cheap 1440p or even 4k res monitor? no, sorry, not good enough, all your shit is blurry as fuck because we don't support those resolutions.
>want to fix that problem? sure buddy download this software betterdisplay off github. good shit right? we fixed apples mess for you.. that'll be 20 dollars plus tip to use the whole app. also our "Fix" just makes everything scale slightly less blurry, but not actually truly outputting at the proper resolution. plus tip. also when you do this you can't have HDR enabled. You get either slightly less retarded looking text or shit scaling with hdr. your choice faggot
>nice logitech/non mac mouse you got there. we're gonna purposefully fuck the scrolling up so when you scroll once it barely scrolls at all, and when you scroll a bunch all at once it torpedoes you to the bottom of the page. if you had a magic mouse from apple, there's a setting for that specifically, but if you plug anything else in you don't get to see or configure that.
>don't worry there's third party apps for that too! download them.. but they all have 7 day trials and disable themselves unless you pay 20 dollars plus tip.
>wanna upgrade that storage? you don't have the right. should've gotten what you wanted out of the gate, stupid. you literally can't even bring it into an apple store and pay an exorbitant fee to have a cheap ssd thrown in. we just literally don't even do it. go buy an external drive you shit head. fucking moron idiot.

who's fucking allowing this stupid shit? do apple fanboys really fucking shell out this much cash just to make their shit usable? what the actual fuck is this shit?

evolution and genetic culling. look up the history of china. No, not the surface level shit. Their real history. Their main dominating philosophies have been 'do what the government says or get killed' and 'do what your parents say or get killed'. So every time theres been little blips of technological advancement that comes from inside china, one of two things happen: the technology is kept secret and only allowed to be used by select people then is lost when the inventor dies, or the inventor and his entire family are wiped out because this new technology infringes on the interests of someone in power who doesnt want to deal with being out competed by a commoner.
Another problem with chinese culture is the concept of 'if the teacher teaches everything, then he goes hungry' so even if you could find like minded people to invent stuff, they were loathe to pass it on to the next generation.

only in the west because the jews have you by the balls and force you to pay more because of fake shortages. chinese and russian gamers are eatting good. the chinese are basically living their best lives at the moment, having access to both cheap finished goods and raw materials similar to the same levels boomers enjoyed in the 1960s. remember how grandpa boomer would brag about his 3 custom cars and other retarded boomer shit? chinese are doing the same thing right now, because thats what happens when a country controls its own industry. You dont let some third party 'buy up all da ram lol' and then have their news outlets tell you 'gosh theres just nothing to be done but pay more for ram sticks that were made 5 years ago lol' because you have no control over your life or your economy.

>Song submission rules/guidelines
Upload the file somewhere, preferably in a lossless format, and post the link here. If you want to update your track, make a new post.
Include the song title in the post, and make it clear that your song is a submission for the album.
Optionally you may include cover art for your track, but please confirm that the image in your post is the cover art or it won't be included. You may not use your real artist name.
Songs that contain anything against YouTube's policies won't be uploaded on YT, but will still be added to the album.
By default, tracks will be normalised to -14 LUFS (integrated loudness) in the release. You may specify a lower loudness for your track.
Use of AI is banned. This includes AI generated stems, samples, and effects. "AI" includes all neural network-based models and not hard-coded automation/procedural generation. You are allowed to ask an LLM about music-related questions, but asking it to give you musical ideas (eg. generating a chord progression) is already a no-no.

LMMS studio is open source and its pretty nice imo

I’ve been running Linux Mint for over four years and was happy with it until the recent drama, especially the AI security scan fiasco. It really shook my trust in the maintainers.

I started looking for alternatives, but after testing hundreds of distros, none of them met my expectations for stability and reliability. I began to accept that my system would just break from time to time until I found a thread recommending Windows Seven as a rock-solid alternative.

After researching, it turns out this version is still surprisingly usable. It’s stable, reliable, and with extended updates plus a good firewall, security isn’t a major issue.

Has anyone else tried this? How did it go for you? Personally, I haven’t run into a single problem so far.

So what? Mint "developer" is not a fucking real developer, it's just a distro maintainer, he doesn't (and shouldn't) write any code instead of some basic python scripts that glue shit together.
Most security "work" that maintainers do is just monitoring software in repost for new CVEs and backporting relevant security fixes (basically git cherrypicking)

why are so many programming "help" groups like this? like, somebody will specifically opt into helping people, and then get frustrated when they dont do exactly what they expect. it constantly feels like im testing everyone's patience whenever i ask for help and its even harder trying to just learn everything myself, especially considering all the weird semantic differences in both the language itself and guides.

like i can imagine a full script in my head but i wouldnt know how to translate it into the language im currently using. and on the offchance that i *do* get the help needed, usually its just "oh just use the blah function", so its not like i just Dont Know How To Code or anything i just dont know the shit thats specific to the engine, and its not like i can just look it up in a glossary or something because the words can be totally different from language to language, like how "object" in one language can be "entity" in another, and object in *that* language refers to an object in an array or something, so theres just a huge language gap that i cant really cross without the help of others, which sucks because working with others sucks
