  • Is the threadiverse abusing Likes and Dislikes?

  • Going by your explanation, sounds more like different design choices mixed with different interpretations from users, not necessarily abuse.

    And if the lead is wrong, still what I saw as wordplay I can't unsee "<.<

  • Konform Browser v140.7.1-100 released

    Jump

  • still pissed the name is not inspired on a canine/lupine

    Jokes aside, glad to see it getting updated! Specially as some if the fixes are in line with Mozilla's "wontfix" lable. At worse, it should push the other forks to implement it, pressuring or ostracizing the now worsened browser, Firefox.

    And about cross-posting as a thread, even on hybrid softwares like Mbin and Friendica you can't, so contents would need to be copied manually anyways.

  • Isn't "capitalism" a communist word made for slandering free market though?

    Edit:

    Also, from my understanding, free market is the potential to grow by one's own merit, barred only by a State that is there only to organize and defend society, not control it.

    And going by grammar, dunno the original meaning of -ism, but nowadays it seems to be related to power or following potential, so capitalism would be power through capital, or chasing after it, with capital iirc being the communist word for money.

    If this line of thought is correct, then capitalism would be a gross oversimplification, if not even a very shallow explanation, which would help remove the meaning of the concept to be slandered.

  • 90's kid and the earliest system I remember using is WinXP. Hate it now, but I love Win98FE, Win2K, Vista and, from the little I have used it, Macintosh 7. I still want to get a NEC PC-98, but any of the models are as expensive as a cheaper car. 🥹

  • Dunno if NBC is repositioning, pushing a tendency, or both, but glad to see the indication that parents are taking the role that should never stopped being theirs.

  • Are LoRa networks a way around the surveillance state?

    Jump

  • The surveilance state will continue to grow as long as it's left to its own devices. Pushing against it is the most guaranteed way to avoid it taking over whatever aspects of your life.

  • Looking for ML coders for help with open source/creative commons board game AI player logic.

    Jump

  • By the way, my focus capacity isn't good either, and normal study, e.g. university, I've found to be terrible for that. If you have a clear objective in mind, and you can discipline yourself into chasing it, that's a good chunk of the problem solved, at least from my experience. But also from my experiences, if you can find a tutor or private teacher that can adapt his/her strategies to keep you engaged in the studies, that should help immensely too, though the discipline to go after objectives still being needed imo.

  • Looking for ML coders for help with open source/creative commons board game AI player logic.

    Jump

  • A bit of a tangent, but regarding using AI, though it helped kickstarting your project, I strongly suggest studying coding as you can to be able to spot any oddities or straight up bs the LLM put in the code.

    Also, either done by you or someone else, one of the few important things that were teached to me when I tried programming in university is that understanding the logic of your intended program comes before the programming itself.

    So going generally by your description, ask yourself, how is a player meant to play your game? How could a game AI (≠ LLM AI) mimic that behavior? And perhaps it would make sense to include some degree of randomness to the AI's behavior?

    With those from the previous paragraph, perhaps you could have a starting point to figuring out what to do.

  • Dunno for how long they had LLMs before making them public, but for several years now, their updates are a gamble of what's being fixed and what's being broken. If such issues do precede LLMs, the joke seems unfair.

  • Sony-led program offers PS5 rentals starting at $13.50 a month in the UK across 12, 24, or 36-month leases — console has to be returned at the end of the contract

    Jump

  • Agreed to the author's opinion at the end:You don't own the games installed in the console. Physical media requires Sony's hardware's validation. Now you start to not even own the hardware anymore. And all that being slowly normalized for decades, drop by drop, and just now the situation seems to be reaching a breaking point.

    Also impressive Sony didn't keep pulling a Nintendo after the Bleem Emulator case. Imagine how bad it is to be able to run a game outside of the native hardware. /s

  • What's the point of switching to Discord alternatives, if they're going to be subject to the same age verification laws?

  • Them = Discord indeed

    And if it's their intention and not from others, them I think the second paragraph still stands.
