Specifically in rescue swimmer training they will teach you to push the drowning person away if they grab onto you the wrong way, otherwise you will be drowning too. You basically need to force them into the right hold, because they are acting solely on survival reflexes and those entail grabbing something and pulling yourself up out of the water, which might sink whatever they are holding onto.
Wait until he pulls out a string and a white board, it’s gonna be feast.
Yeah that is the weirdest way to flirt. If she touches you, that’s more clear but touching your food is not really understood as a display of affection.

I’m excited to hear how well it works ^^

It really looks like they fired everyone but one guy who is busting off his ass to “get a game done” in the same development cycle.
Because you can see he’s trying but there’s no way he can actually fill this content desert.
But not as big as th-
I’m sorry
hoshikarakitaridia@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How did Diddy get off with so much?9·13 days agoYes. As much as I hate Diddy, the big charges were very hard to prove and one could say this outcome speaks highly of the jury’s regard for a just outcome, and proves they put feelings aside.
Feelings are valid, but you are supposed to leave your feelings at the front of the courthouse, otherwise verdicts would be very volatile and trials would be an indictment on the person, and not what they did.
Definitely Rocholas.
hoshikarakitaridia@lemmy.worldto AI@lemmy.ml•Anthropic can legally train AI on books without authors permission, judge rules5·14 days agoI think this is an article about this order for summary judgement in Bartz v Anthropic
https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/69058235/231/bartz-v-anthropic-pbc/
The articles is really stretching it’s sources. If you read the order, the judge mentions Anthropic has pirated lots of books just to keep in a library, and thus he grants summary judgement for all of those, which means Anthropic will have to pay damages on all of those.
He does say that the ones they only trained on and that were not pirated are excluded, but that’s because this is summary judgement, so the facts are all assumed in the light most favourable to the defendant. That will be finally addressed in a verdict if this comes to trial.
So basically the judge said pirating shit is so egregious, there’s no way they can levy fair use for that. Which I think is the right decision.
The article and the court document really paint two very different pictures, which does not speak to the journalistic integrity.
I don’t write essays often, but when I do it is because things are bothering me. Specifically, these memes are plenty and basically tell me someone like me doesn’t exist. When this collides with people who say things like “I honestly can’t imagine how you can use windows with all the crap” I get annoyed, and at this point I just wanted to make sure the people who write this know that there’s lots of people like me who have good reasons.
Turns out the world is multi-facetted.
I am one of those people.
I’m sorry but I can’t dedicate the time. Last time I tried to install it for someone else I went down a 5h rabbit hole of finding a driver for a scanner, and I was at the point where I had custom pkg repositories and needed to fix pkg dependency conflicts myself and I don’t have the OS knowledge to do all this, and I didn’t have time because I had to travel back again.
When I tried installing it for myself, I was missing critical software for a variety of things. For example, there’s no good DAW on Linux, and even if there was, lots of VST plugins are only Linux compatible. Things like Adobe Premiere Pro and Adobe After Effects have no solid alternative to this day for Linux and hence I’m struggling to replace them. Blender is on Linux (obv) but for example render engines usually only come with software for windows.
And then there’s a bunch of things where I’m not sure how compatible they are even if they were to run on Linux. Office uses proprietary file format constraints to lock down their ecosystem. Sucks, but everyone uses it, so I’m stuck. Unreal Engine, lots games, my audio interface, drivers for obscure small devices I need? I just don’t know and I have to dedicate time to researching all of it.
I hope you can see why someone like me has a very hard time just switching over. Yes I can just pull the plug and do it, but I will get no work done for a solid 2 weeks and even after that I will be heavily constrained.
And this all on top of the fact that I regularly set up Linux VMs for specific things which break way too often on regular use. Which also does not spark joy.
I hope you can understand why I’m fine debloating windows with Chris Titus for half an hour and then just enjoying 4 years on it without worrying about all of that is easier.
And believe me, I bought a notebook and will try to go CachyOS x KDE Plasma on that, but it will be an experiment and I have lots of doubt that this can replace my setup.

hoshikarakitaridia@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Would you be more or less supportive of Iran if they were woke atheists who were fine with killing civilians & didn't announce defensive attacks or accept surrenders?105·17 days agoTo answer your question while ignoring your dishonesty, bias and ulterior motives:
I would be exactly the same level of annoyed. I have a distrust for any government especially when they play war or when they threaten others.
That said, some governments have proven to be more straightforward and predictable than others, and I definitely prefer those. That doesn’t mean I’m gonna fall in love with one soon, these things only lead to authorianism and I think we can agree between Hitler and Mussolini that’s not an aspiring state to live in.
I would love to have a nuanced conversation, because as someone from Europe, I do have a very nuanced view on all of this and I feel bad for the civilians who get caught in the crossfire of these conflicts, but unfortunately you are basically killing any platform where these nuanced conversations are possible when you’re trying to strengthen your position by using rhetorical questions.
There’s no winners in discussions, and they are only productive if everyone is there to speak, listen, and learn. And that way I can understand why the hell you are doing what you’re doing and maybe respect you a bit, while you understand the same about and stop trying to “catch” other people in something. Because that’s not what these communities are for and you are being an asshole.
hoshikarakitaridia@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What topic do you have the most knowledge, and can you explain it so a child can understand it?2·17 days agoThere’s lots of other computer science topics I know very well (AIs being one of them funnily enough) but even I would zone out if you didn’t bring a little attendance present and a live demonstration when I need to listen to you explain it.
Exactly.
People always wanna classify AI as super smart or super dumb, similar to the human brain or randomly guessing words and doing an ok job. But that is very subjective and it’s sliding a little fader between two points that differ in definition slightly for every person.
If we actually wanted to approach the question of “how intelligent are AIs compared to humans” we would need to write a lot of word definitions first, and I’m sure the answer at the end will be just as helpful as a shoulder shrug and an unenthusiastic “about half as intelligent”. And that’s why these comparisons are stupid.
If AI is a good tool to us, great. If not, alright let’s skip and go straight to the next bigger discovery, and stop getting hung up on semantics.
