…and that’s why the person you originally replied to asked their question. General popularity is generally a bad proxy metric for personal preference.

Is it impossible to like things outside the mainstream?
I think it’s more that people confuse the Israeli government with “the Jewish people”, when the truth is that they are very separate. The Israeli people are somewhere in the middle. There seems to be a bunch of them who are quite supportive of their government’s actions.
Also libretube (android client to piped.video so you don’t connect to YouTube at all) and clipious (android client to invidious) are worth looking at too. You’ll need to tweak the servers you connect to to get good performance, but both work quite nicely.
There’s certainly a bubble bursting. You only have to look at all the layoffs.fyi since COVID. I’m just hoping it’s happening in a slow enough way that it’s not going to take more legitimate companies with it.
AI is the next bubble. It will hit a brick wall either legally or just on functionality (maybe both). I can see uses for targeted models, bespoke to a use case, but training those is too expensive right now. General models are just toys IMHO. Unfortunately it’s going to get a few years for everyone to realise.
Facebook opening up to non-students was the turning point IMHO. Myspace was big, but everybody knew it was trash so not being on it was fine. If you wanted “a profile” otherwise, you needed your own page. That took effort, so only people with something to say bothered with it. Even Twitter was still SMS based and so only for hardcore addicts.
Facebook gave everyone an effortless voice and lordy, do people talk crap.
Would have been a better joke without the “all”. Then the meaning is ambiguous.
A corrollary to what you’re saying is that people assume that because you’ve replied to them, you must be disagreeing with them. Often I’ll agree with a poster but comment to add to their point, only to get chewed out for disagreeing with them when I didn’t.
The problem is shareholders; The fact that extracting money out of the company is prioritised over the stability of the company. This leads to unstable companies which are vulnerable to shit like this.
WB would not be verging on the edge of bankruptcy if it was privately held.
I meant, the sub that banned you also qualifies under the title of “the bad one”.
COVID was the auth left everywhere, at least in social circles.
…for “participating” in the Bad one.
I think you might need to be more specific.
Containers are the ultimate “works for me” in software development. My experience it makes for more fragile software that depends on its environment being perfect and nothing else will do.
You’ve never had “drunk woman that won’t leave you alone and starts crossing the line”? That shit is aggravating whoever is involved.
That annoys me so much. Especially when the randomly generated line noise password I’m using doesn’t happen to include one of the three punctuation characters they need to be “secure”.
The greatest threat is password databases being leaked from the services you use. Not your phone or laptop. Physical access to a device is a pretty high security bar.
If you don’t let people make notes of passwords they use one crap memorable password for everything. Let them store it, and advise them to do it somewhere encrypted. Ta da! Password manager.
The weird trope I’ve seen now is “don’t use the password manager in your browser”. For the life of me, I can’t think why some think a browser plugin to a commercial password manager is safer than the built in version.
…because none of those groups are Tankies and they are all unified against Tankies.
Tankies aren’t socialists or communists (not that those two things are the same either). They are the purist ideologues of communism, where compromise is defeat. Rampant in telling you why you’re wrong, and why only the purest form of communism will bring nirvana. All without understanding the consequences of what they propose.
Even the Communists don’t want them on their side.
Everybody to the left side…bombs right side.
Everybody to the right side…bombs left side.
See… We didn’t target anyone.
Sdxl was 3 models too. Base, refiner and vae.
Cascade is 3. Lores, hires, vae.
