  • Three Inverse Laws of AI - Susam Pal

    Jump

  • it's kind of a critique of the three laws of robotics. it's main point is the effect that those laws would have on the people living alongside robots governed by them. the primary issue it points out with the 3 laws is basically that if people have an abundance or free labor that is strictly bound to do everything for them and protect them from all harm then they basically become slaves to their own servants (the books use that phrasing, probably because the characters narrating don't see robotic labor as slavery). they're not the best books I've ever read but I think they make a really good point about how ai/robots should be governed and about what the difference between one of those and a person even is (or rather if there is one at all, save for the three laws), and they are decent just not the best.

  • Valve antitrust lawsuit reportedly reveals lengths Steam owner is willing to go to prevent cheaper prices elsewhere

    Jump

  • you can get cheaper prices elsewhere all the time. look at humble bundle (idk if they're still around but thats where a lot of my games came from a while back), green man gaming, or any of the console app stores. depending on who has sales when games are cheaper all the time. y'all are falling for propaganda trying to discredit one of the only decent companies left in gaming written by their competitors and their competitors' friends. try thinking a little before just following the social media hive mind because you've spent the last couple decades seeing proof that this is a blatant lie.

  • It's hard to justify buying a Framework 12

    Jump

  • yeah the framework 12 doesn't make a lot of sense bc the price point is way too high. kinda sucks bc if it was at more of a Chromebook type of price point it would be undoubtedly the best option for schools.

  • Systemd’s New Feature Brings Age Verification Option to Linux

    Jump

  • hey dumbass, private corporations have to follow the law and they need to react fast enough to have a system in place when the law takes effect.

  • Systemd’s New Feature Brings Age Verification Option to Linux

    Jump

  • thats fair, but a lot of people are giving them shit for complying in the first place with a law that is going to be in the state they're based in.

  • Systemd’s New Feature Brings Age Verification Option to Linux

    Jump

  • its age attestation, not age verification (saying it vs proving it). also, dont give systemd shit about this bc they are just covering their asses in case more restrictive laws go through.

  • Meta is shutting down VR social platform Horizon Worlds in further pivot away from the metaverse

    Jump

  • glad they're finally realizing the metaverse is bullshit. the term came from early cyberpunk (genre, not franchise) media to describe the internet as we know it before it was invented and properly named.

  • How often do you fluff your pillows?

    Jump

  • i have to cram it all in the pillowcase and then fold the leftover pillowcase (I have a big pillowcase and normal sized pillow) under the pillow. i usually have to redo it once or twice bc I toss and turn a lot.

  • Can you touch type?

    Jump

  • i can do something similar, but when they tried to teach me how in like 5th grade I was very determined not to do what my teachers wanted so I do it weird

  • KDE Plasma 6.6 released

    Jump

  • thats exactly what plasma needs right now. feels like every time I read this week in plasma they just extracted it straight from my mind and fixed the things that were bugging me.

  • Discord Alternatives, Ranked

    Jump

  • Honestly I don't think those things are that big of a deal. yeah it's annoying, but very few people are going to be setting up on new devices often enough for the verification thing to matter (also it's only needed for encrypted chats, which won't be most of them) and most discord users either don't care about emojis or use whatever is available on their server as part of the server. Just letting rooms (probably need a way for all rooms in a space to have them too) have a set of custom emojis tied to them should work for most people. for the people who do care about emojis and stickers, they can have any emoji or sticker they want.

    I think the main issues are things like slow load times and trying to keep every room loaded at all times. the first can be alleviated by going to a less popular instance or by fixing the second. most people won't trust instances other than the main one for a while bc they are new to the federated stuff. The second can be fixed by just not trying to load every room. you still need to check for new messages every so often but that doesn't mean they all have to be loaded at all times. I'm also pretty sure you can turn of the verification thing in your instance account settings.

  • Discord Alternatives, Ranked

    Jump

  • thats exactly what I mean though. the technical side is already great, if they can get the ux on par with discord (which is a very low bar) they'll have a shot. thats something they could feasibly do in the short term.

  • if matrix can get some of the remaining issues fixed I think it has a decent shot at taking over, but people will probably pick another "federated" proprietary app like with bluesky

  • What technologies are constant failures but we can't stop trying to make work?

    Jump

  • well most (tech-related) industries dont really get much traction when its just private companies. generally a private company starts something and then open-source projects keep the underlying tech working while major companies rebrand stuff every year.

    thats part of why I'm so excited for the steam frame. it'll finally give a vr platform that doesnt rely on proprietary stuff, freeing people up to do stupid things with it and accidentally make something really cool. what we really needed is for the bubble it was in to burst so the companies that had it in a chokehold would let go, but it just got smaller and they held on. its a lot like the ai situation right now where there are useful and sustainable use cases, but its too wrapped up in shareholder circlejerks for anyone to get the chance to set it up right.

    also, I need to get my ender v3 working again. that thing was fun.

  • What technologies are constant failures but we can't stop trying to make work?

    Jump

  • vr is useful but its too wrapped up in corporate bs to really take off for now. its dominated by companies obsessed with ai and by pathetic startups that never finish a product. it just needs meta to be less dominant.
