He implicitly defines consciousness as an ability to step back from the particular ruleset or training to see “the big picture” and deal with new circumstances. In particular how humans are different from godel’s incompleteness theorem, which constrains the function of all algorithmic systems

Good question. I don’t actually know. My previous statement is a lie, I’ve only seen them in movies

I’ve been lucky enough to find some women that are a lot of fun to be around, and understand my interests at a deep level. I’d describe it as kind of like friendship, but with a woman

Men become feral if left alone long enough. They identify with the mountains and the moss. They smoke their pipe tobacco while looking longingly along a river. They maintain weight for the winter. They become one with the universe. Then they become horny and the great cycle continues

Everything is customizable if you are brave enough with the code :)

But yeah gnome is known for breaking changes & rewrites. As a result, Cosmic desktop was born to be more stable and reliable with plugins. That’s ~alpha. But if you truly wanna DIY, then the tiling window managers are king. Stuff like dwm and awesomewm where you configure every part of the UI and can easily make your own widgets

Damn dawgs, Trump campaigned saying that he would fix this as a mere president-elect. This is my “wow holy shit” face, actually seeing it happen maybe :O

Ok so he said same about Russia, let’s see it

I remember one internship in college, I realized that after 4 months of work, the result was 15k lines less code than when I started. I figured out new ways to structure the system so it was much easier to write and maintain, while actually adding features. That felt great

And yeah, there are many ways for it to happen. Ex. someone was shipping the tests with the code and decided to stop, debug symbols being removed, inlined dependencies being externalized, maybe a new version of a UI toolkit has extra icons built in

Efficiency can gently creep in. What blows my mind is that this is averaged out across so many packages at once. And sure, sometimes it goes up too, but nothing like Windows/OSX. It’s really cool that you can make a Linux that will fit into ~any space you want, whereas the min requirements for Win11 include 64gb of hd

Out of all the comments here hahaha this is the one that gets me lmao

You haven’t had an update with less than 52 packages?? Ever??

Well, I took the time to read the whitepaper, and it’s yeah, pretty dumb sounding. The gist is that it’s p2p post sharing with lots of captchas & a crypto edge that it probably doesn’t need https://img1.wsimg.com/blobby/go/eb02f20b-e787-4a02-b188-d0fcbc250ba1/pleb.tex-6d2e1bf.pdf

The similarities to Lemmy are substantial, it’s just not on activitypub, but rather its own pubsub thing. If you want to host data, you still have to keep a node running at all times, it’s not the case that “there are no instances”. Those instances can moderate the content, so it’s not the case that “there’s no moderation.” The whitepaper mentions that “its possible to delegate running a client to a centralized server…” rather than having to have a fat syncing client running on your own machine … in lemmy, it’s more like “its possible to run your own node if you want”. Plebbit doesn’t care about maintaining history of posts, it expects that servers will go down over time, and the data will be lost. Lemmy is pretty similar in that regard too, if all instances hosting the data go down, then it’s lost. The expected outcome is that there’s a handful of big nodes, as is the typical result of this form of “decentralization” - same as Lemmy, Email

Ultimately, I don’t see Plebbit doing anything particularly smarter/better, and having private/public key cryptography involved doesn’t really matter. They talk about blockchains and using coins as anti-spam mechanisms, but I don’t see why that’s relevant to the implementation

There’s like 1.2 million people in USA prisons. Why this group in particular?? Just do what every dem president does and release all the potheads without actually fixing the war on drugs problem

Wow that’s pretty fkin shallow my guy, try going to Mexico one day. There are ancient ruins the size of modern cities everywhere, unique construction styles that make Hollywood look like a tin shack town, and a very rich show/restaurant scene. I mean it’s a huge fucking country, and I don’t think you’re gonna find Mexicans that see drugs as a good Christian lifestyle

Honestly hilarious level of QQ. The election wasn’t rigged. He won by almost 100 electoral college votes. He had the most popular votes, by 2.5 million people, roughly 50%. Republicans swept House, Senate, and Governors

Elections in the USA are always pretty close, that’s how it works. But this victory is a complete and total one with no real room for doubt

You may not like it, but those are the facts. Don’t mimic the sad boy GOP crying “election fraud” — the people voted. Yes, that means there are people in this country that disagree with you and don’t trust the direction of the Democrats. You might call them brainwashed, bigoted, transphobic, or religious extremists, but they get to voice their desires anyway. Society is a push and pull between different value systems, and imagining half the country is “evil” will only cause more harm

Nothing is going to stop the transition. Buckle up, and try harder next time. Maybe the Dems will actually let a primary happen rather than choosing your leader for you

Can’t you just go to WordPress.com, log in to their hosting, and install the plugin?

“The Pleiadian star constellation light codes are the download of radiant abundance in the etheric world”

But also there’s “that’s so fear coded”

Yw

Basically, media cannot truly be DRM because: (1) it ~has to be converted into data that screens and speakers can display (2) ultimately if it’s fetching widevine encryption keys, those keys are somewhere in your device and can be retrieved

So yes, you can do it. A “capture card” is such a “gyzmo” — but often, you can just rip using software, i.e. record the decoded stream

My guy they just caught an object falling from space using a pair of giant chopsticks

Seems dope, I mean, your computer don’t work and retyping text is lame

Then how do you defeat the new bsod in the Linux kernel? It’s got a fancy QR code!!

(It’s “install bsd” isn’t it…)

Perfume?

Nah, ugly ppl still make the music, behind the scenes :p
