Have you tried tossing the URLs into yt-dlp? That's the go-to software for downloading video from streaming sites.

Sounds like Rober gets to repeat this with a cinderblock wall and use the car as a tax write off then.

Wait, they're adding vinyl cutting to the extruder? What in the mad science hell?

I can't see a world where that works well unless the cutter is on a different part. I'd imagine that a vinyl cutting head has entirely different design considerations and constraints than a 3D filament extruder.

Just this one. The dbzer0 instance is run in a manner I agree with (as democratic as possible, many choices determined by community vote), run by an admin I respect (former top mod of r/piracy, developer of a number of software projects that significantly improve quality of life on the fediverse by killing CSAM and offering community based trust and verification of instances), has been around long enough that I have no concerns about it suddenly disappearing with no notice, and generally doesn't defederate from other instances unless they're pedo or nazi related (so I don't need to be on multiple instances to get at the fediverse content I want to see).

Plus, at the end of the day, if the instance goes down, I'll just create an account somewhere else. If I don't remember one of the communities I was subscribed to then I can't argue that it was all that important in the first place.

For warehouse positions, at least a decade ago, "hiring events" consisted of showing up with a valid driver's license. I think they did a background check. No interview. Boom, you've got a job.

They effectively have an infinite labor supply and have everything structured to be incredibly resistant to what little room there is for error.

So is this (unfortunately the comment was edited to what it says now after Cranston responded to it).

You're making a huge assumption based only on the fact that Windows hides these logs from the end user.

I've had line of sight to those logs through a system that automatically highlights those errors and warnings for something like eight years now, for a fleet of over 1000 Windows machines at the start which is now roughly 5000 total.

In that time I've seen less than 200 graphics driver issues logged, and they all were on machines with failing hardware.

Yes, they are not anywhere as visible to the end user as they are on Linux, but they are also significantly less common (graphics issues in particular).


Also, if the warnings are meaningless, why display them to the end user? It's just more noise that actual problems can sneak by in.

Hahahahaha. At least they had the balls to publish and host it themselves.

 

US Congress proposed bill to allow AI to prescribe drugs and medical treatment

Original post from the Fuck AI community: https://lemmy.world/post/24681591

The fact that this has even been proposed is horrifying on so many fucking levels. Technically it has to be approved by the state invovled and the FDA, but opening this door even a crack is so absurdly out of touch with reality.

I always get a kick out of goofy ass edits of right wing, facebook tier "memes"

 
 

We've heard the anguished screams of the Funhole community for an alternative to the Funhole Times. For a hard hitting publication unafraid to dig deep, unrestrained by concepts like "common sense", "integrity", "anti-treason laws", "libel lawsuits", and "basic measures of competence".

We're proud to bring you a snippet of the inaugural issue of the Funhole Gazette, and we hope some competition will drive us all to make even better content in the new year!

We also vigorously deny any allegations of sabotage of the Funhole Times facilities.

New Ed! Not much particularly new info, just a general lament and summary of the state of tech and how much has been pinned on magical thinking. Has some wonderfully quotable sections.

What if what we're seeing today isn't a glimpse of the future, but the new terms of the present? What if artificial intelligence isn't actually capable of doing much more than what we're seeing today, and what if there's no clear timeline when it'll be able to do more? What if this entire hype cycle has been built, goosed by a compliant media ready and willing to take career-embellishers at their word?

Please forgive my addition to the title, as it's meant to be a play on "Waiting for Godot", not a comment on the Godot game engine. Wanted to make that more clear than the title alone would.

 

This old youtube poop has ruined Le Mis for me. Sends me into the giggles. Can't believe this poop is 11 years old. An absolute classic from DaThings.
