  • Do not listen to the mainstream fediverse opinion. It is perfectly fine for your baby to use Ubuntu linux, rather than Arch.

    Just look out at the night, then look at the cat. Yawn. Lick the back of your hand, smooth your hair down with it, and go take a nap. The cat will understand.

    Can anyone advise realistic, dystopian books with AI?

  • When I was like 11 or 12, "The Naked Sun" was the first non-kid's novel I read all the way through. There were parts that didn't resonate bc I was just a kid but it was a memorable experience and I spent the next 6 years reading all the science fiction I could get my hands on.

  • I bet we could find some story in the New Wave of science fiction that presaged influencers. Bug Jack Barron comes close (though it's about a talk show host).

    I'm a little skeptical of the idea that science fiction predicts things, tho. If you have a million stories out there, one of them's bound to resemble whatever you're claiming it predicted.

  • There's that famous scene in "The Little Prince" where MC is like: "It's the time that you've spent with your rose, that makes your rose so important." And that's really true.

    In this case I'd be like: No, because they aren't the one who was there for me when I got sick. They aren't the one who listened to me when my moms died. And they aren't the one who I cooked for every weekend and helped out with career stuff and watched anime with. Even if they kinda look like you, they aren't the you that I've been with, and that makes you a thousand times more attractive.

  • That's what it sounds like.

  • ... it’s unclear if Flock’s cameras will continue recording in absence of an active contract. According to ABC7, the police department is seeking new language in its contract addressing privacy and data storage concerns.... Flock said it was confident that the company could “clear up the current misconceptions” that led to the contract’s end.

    Yeah, all this means is that you're gonna have to spend time restoring from backup. Right?

  • Or sometimes there are just multiple failures. That's what I learned from reading Admiral Cloudberg about air disasters: even if you have n safety measures, there's still the chance that there'll be n+1 failures.
