  • I indirectly spoiled myself by looking at the cast appearance page of the last season in the series' Wikipedia article and now I'm reluctant to finish the series.

  • It's definitely not Dr. House. You can tell by his face that he's actually willing to listen to what others have to say

  • Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world

    What do I need to know about the Odyssey before watching the film?

  • A number representing how positive or negative a person is going to respond to whatever I would speak that's on my mind right now. If it can be updated in real time, you can experiment with basically infinite scenarios on starting or continuing a conversation with someone to determine what's the best dialogue option to proceed with.

  • I've seen this topic covered briefly in one of CGP Grey's videos. The video also gives a POV of a person with this syndrome. The POV was surprisingly interesting to watch and I was wondering if there are other similar recorded experiments.

    What do you think makes a story immersive?

  • For me it was the announcement in the Blender's official Discord server about its acquisition by Affinity, renaming it to Affinity 3D.

    (Edited to include the announcement text)

    Canva Announces Acquisition of Blender to Launch ‘Affinity 3D’

    @everyone Canva announced the acquisition of the Blender Foundation’s development assets and core engineering team. This landmark move expands the "Affinity" creative ecosystem following Canva's purchase of Serif last year. Rebranded as "Affinity 3D," the software will serve as the foundational 3D powerhouse within Canva’s subscription model. CEO Melanie Perkins stated the move is designed to bridge the gap between professional 3D rendering and the intuitive, drag-and-drop accessibility that defines the Canva brand.

    The integration into the Affinity ecosystem promises a seamless, unified workflow. Users will gain non-destructive, real-time links between Affinity Photo, Designer, and their 3D projects. The engineering team plans to overhaul the interface to mirror the streamlined Affinity aesthetic while retaining the high-performance cycles and geometry nodes power-users rely on. Canva has emphasized that the open-source spirit of Blender will be preserved through an "Affinity Community Edition," keeping the core architecture free for students and individual creators.

    The acquisition acts as a catalyst for the "Canva Magic 3D" generative suite. By training AI models on Affinity 3D data, Canva will introduce text-to-3D generation directly into its browser-based editor. Users can generate custom models, textures, and lighting via prompts, which can then be imported into Affinity 3D for refined manual sculpting. Analysts believe this positions Canva as a direct competitor to Adobe’s Substance suite, creating an end-to-end powerhouse that simplifies 3D for everyone from social media marketers to professional VFX artists.

    What was your favourite April Fools joke of this year?

    What makes Pulp Fiction special?

  • Is it true? I've been lately looking out for a new atomic distro but I've heard it seems it's not developer friendly with the sandboxing and extra efforts to get apt/rpm working. I am relatively new to Linux and stuck with Mint for now so I can't add anything to it.

  • I can attest to it. Lately my server needed to be repaired and got its entire disk wiped. Fortunately I managed to back up my compose files and bind mounts. After reinstalling the OS and transferring the backed up contents, I ran 'docker compose up' and eventually everything came back up exactly how they were when being backed up. Even the Postgres backup of Joplin was recovered purely from its bind mount.

  • Happy cake day!

  • Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world

    What is the worst sponsor segue you can imagine?

  • That is a behemoth of a homelab you have set up there. My jaw would've dropped out if it could.

  • And I still refuse to use the 'Complete and Instant Annihilation of the Final Boss' potion since I may need it in the future.

  • Thanks for your response. I already have Joplin synced with my server as a solution for my documentation. However I meant to ask how you structure your documentation, know what and how to mention, and organise it for future reference.

  • Selfhosted @lemmy.world

    How should I properly document my homelab?

  • Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world

    Can you recommend Youtubers / Podcasters who talk like shitposters?

  • You do have a point. I think I may be overthinking this after all. I'll just try to talk with them about this upfront.

  • You're right. I cannot avoid it completely. Sometimes I use it unknowingly through some other online service intermediate or work in projects among peers who do use AI. What I should've said is I avoid using it to the best of my ability.

    1. My complaint is with commercially available generative AI like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude etc. The fact that they are being proposed as solution to every conceivable problem without addressing its drawbacks to equal standards and everyone accepting it as such is what's wrong to me.
    2. I wish to inform them of the implications of using these services what others failed to do. I do believe some people would consider reducing their uses if not stop altogether if they heard what it really is and what they contribute to by using it.

    It's hard but right to admit that I'm coming off as an 'AI vegan' with what I've said earlier. I don't want to be casted out for not wanting to use something just for the sake of it, like with other mainstream social media.

  • This is a brilliant idea! I was wondering whether talking subjectively would be detrimental to my point, but having it explained this way is so much better. I think the key point here is to not berate the other person for using AI in between this explanation.

  • The post is aimed at me facing situations where I state among people I know that I don't use AI, followed by them asking why not. Instead of driving them out by stating "Just because" or get into jargons that are completely unbeknownst to them, I wish to properly inform them why I have made this decision and why they should too.

    I am also able to identify people to whom there's no point discussing this. I'm not asking to convince them too.

  • They've lost so much of their brains to AI, that even valid criticism of AI feel like personal insults to them.

    That's the issue. I do wish to warn me or even just inform them of what using AI recklessly could lead to.

  • Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world

    How do I explain my reluctance to use generative AI in good faith?
