  • Crunchyroll accidentally confirmed it uses ChatGPT for subtitles

    Jump

  • For YouTube tutorial videos I have no issue with relying on GPT, but I think it's important to recognize that the translation of art is art. I don't feel good about the idea of something without a soul or perspective interpolating a work of art from one culture and language into another that might be wildly different from where it started.

    That all said, I think Crunchyroll and anyone else using AI art without disclosing it absolutely should be honest about it.

  • There's still no Threadiverse RemindMe bot :(

  • Because unlike Mastodon there is no one main "discussion forum" fedi app, we have Lemmy, mbin, kbin, piefed. The term has nothing to do with Meta Threads!

  • twas a joke, but that's a nice feature!

  • Storing upvote / downvote totals you gave to each user, and a setting to display that history next to their name.

    Where is the instance that autobans any account that users have downvoted X times? I want to join it.

  • Fchan, the federated imageboard, is apparently still alive

  • Lemmy does feel more and more like 4chan every day...

  • New Linux Kernel Drama: Torvalds Drops Bcachefs Support After Clash

  • This is literally literally a drama article

  • It's annoying to be treated that way isn't it?

  • That's a good point, I have no doubt Linux would not be in the position it is if he were more sensitive to it.

    Jump

  • Anyone else here actively put off by Linux drama and headlines like "Torvalds Drops support After Clash!"

    EDIT: New rule?

  • lemm.ee has shut down for good

    Jump

  • I think linkrot is happening much faster here than on reddit, even if just counting deleted posts.

    Are you sure? Are lemm.ee posts showing as deleted for you? It looks like the copies of anything posted to lemm.ee still exist on the instances that it was federated with. Try this link !animation@lemm.ee, I am pretty sure it should still work on your instance.

  • Which Distros Are Doing Best Currently?

    Jump

  • Not positive but IIRC with Fedora you can change updates to weekly/monthly etc.

  • [Question] Quietest 16-18TB hard drive for NAS

    Jump

  • Yeah haha, as the other guy said, this drive definitely seems on the louder side of average, but the thing I wanted to illustrate is the pattern of the sound which I think is distracting at any volume.

  • [Question] Quietest 16-18TB hard drive for NAS

    Jump

  • Those used enterprise drives are actually highly reliable but they do make a ton of very unpleasant sounding noise and it's not just loud "brown noise" whirring like a normal HDD.

    Here is a video of what they sounds like, not something most people would want on their desk.

  • Which Distros Are Doing Best Currently?

    Jump

  • We're simultaneously in a place where there are more options than ever, and yet it's become increasingly clear there are really only 4-5 options.

  • This is so true Rule

    Jump

  • You're correct where it counts (not Roman at all) but it was around before Italian Fascism:

    It was during the period of the French Revolution that the gesture was invented by revolutionary republicans who framed their politics as a revival of the Roman republic.

  • Reddit CEO pledges site will remain “written by humans and voted on by humans”

    Jump

  • Does it count as "a human" if it's a bot reposting human-made content for the 50th time?

  • I know he's just selling the platform to AI companies, but it's an odd take considering they've been moving away from being a message board and towards being just another content feed for years now.

  • I am a happy /c/fuckai subscriber and I am still comfortable admitting that image generators can be great for memes and quick jokes.
