Technology@lemmy.world•I'm struggling to think of any online services for which I'd be willing to verify my identity or ageEnglish
21·1 month agoIt is possible to build an age verification system, where you use your actual ID with a cryptographic process without any personal data. The technology has existed for decades now.
They are using the wrong kind of Linux! My kind of Linux is superior, because it’s broken in a different way and more difficult than yours.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What does this error screen means at Internet Archive?English
31·1 month agoTry downloading the file.
Homebrew is supported on Ubuntu, Debian, and Fedora.
I use it on my recent Linux Mint install. Mint has pretty old packages or enormously bloated flatpacks, that come with limitations.
neovim only came in an ancient version, that doesn’t support lazyvim. Nicotine+ came as ancient from the Mint packages or as a 4 GB monster via flatpack.
I used Homebrew and everything installed quickly in current versions and worked like a breeze.
The great thing about Homebrew is that removing it is as easy as
rm -r /home/linuxbrewNix is great as well of course and very powerful. Can be a bit of a bitch to write all the config files though.

Open Source@lemmy.ml•You can now use detailed open source licensing filters on AlternativeToEnglish
3·1 month agoAs a user the license doesn’t matter for you. Even if you contribute back to a project, you will be able to use your changes in the project.
The license only matters if you want to redistribute a changed version yourself or use parts of it in your own software.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•ELI5. Limit of current gen AI/LLMsEnglish
31·1 month agoSure. Lots of fiction, especially TV stick to well established tropes, regardless of a human writing it or not.
Best of both worlds:
- install boring stable distro
- use Homebrew to install bleeding edge stuff, separately from the base system.
Arch takes a long time to install, even if you have done it before.
Fedora is pretty good. However in order to install drivers or firmware for specific hardware can be more difficult as it involves adding extra repositories.
the current Nvidia drivers were incompatible with the shipped kernel
A more common issue with Nvidia is older hardware no longer being supported by Nvidia’s current drivers and the kernel not supporting the old drivers. For older cards, you need to run kernel 6.8 or older for the binary drivers to work. The open source Nouveau driver is noticeably slower and getting hardware accelerated video to work can be difficult. So you can easily end up with mesa-llvm, meaning your CPU emulates OpenGL.
The easiest way to get this to work is to install Linux Mint 22.1.

41·1 month agoYou can improve the novel writing by using agents. First you generate just an outline with the plot points to every chapter. Then you chop that up and feed it to several agents to flesh out individual chapters. Finally the generated chapters are verified against the outline and overall plot. If that doesn’t fit, the agents are tasked with a rewrite. Repeat that until you have something serviceable.
As you point out, there exists plenty of bad writing in TV series. These often have a number of different authors, who don’t necessarily know the other episodes very well.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Greece's ex-finance minister Yanis Varoufakis charged over use of MDMA decades agoEnglish

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•If contemporary professional comedians were magically taken to the Paleolichic, they'd probably work much earlier in the day. Back then, there were no Late Night Shows or well-lit comedy clubs.English

You have the ability to break anything. Your distro, maintainers, developers also like to break things from time to time.
Don’t blame yourself for others breaking things.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•People who reject challenging ideas as stupid without engagement are like intellectual nepobabiesEnglish
1·2 months agoYes, humanity needs a spiritual transformation of thought.
Marxists are materialists necessarily because it stems from a rejection of capitalism and private ownership. The vision of a classless communist society is extremely vague and put off to the far future.
Leftists often stay trapped in criticism, deconstruction, contrarianism. Anti- capitalism becomes an end unto itself. If the revolution is successful, revolution itself becomes a fetish.

21·2 months agoI was wondering, if you were referring to Soulism. I first encountered it, when a Soulist instance was announced.
What you’re saying jibes well with themes I know from psychology, therapy, and occultism.
Contrary to materialist Marxist victim thinking, soulism seems to empower the individual to change.

6·2 months agoTotally. Especially today people hole up in their tiny bubbles and echo chambers. Any challenges to their worldview and beliefs are rejected as woke, cultural Marxist, far left, fascist, racist, bigotry, etc. Being able to endure and process the emotions that come up, when you’re challenged is a skill people across the political spectrum have less and less. Emotions are endlessly validated regardless of facts, to the detriment of society and everyone’s wellbeing at large. The celebration of victimhood is toxic for everyone and keep them disempowered. It’s not just the left. The right has its whole „white genocide“ myth, and endless conspiracy theories about powerful evil elites.
It’s extremely prevalent here on Lemmy/Piefed as well. Actual discussion between opposing viewpoints is rare, and usually cut short by mods.
People should just talk to and more importantly listen to each other.








Sieht lecker und fleischlastig aus. Guten Appetit.
