The pound shop in the UK used to sell everything for a pound. Now it sells stuff in multiples of a pound.

When I update Fedora to a new version it keeps the old version available to boot to on bootup by default. Just another reason why I like Fedora.

Well, that is how it works in Portal.

Thanks, it was a good suggestion. Unfortunately, that wasn’t it. This book has many short sections with a question at the end of each one, but the one I remember has fewer longer sections without a question. And it has different stories.

“Spaceship or asteroid”?!

It’s clearly a spaceship.

No, but thanks. The title is something about philosophy generally, and it covers multiple topics.

No, but thanks

I can’t wait until AI video is good enough that you can input a book and it outputs a movie which is as faithful as you like to the original, you can change how all the characters look, etc

You know what’s even more confidential? Running models locally on my machine without connecting to some third party’s servers.

Free speech means freedom from legal consequences. If it’s a crime to say a thing, and there is a penalty for saying them, then it’s a misnomer to call it free speech.

From the literal BBC website this morning:

"This afternoon’s statement from the UK and dozens of other countries calling for an end to the war in Gaza describes the killing over 800 Palestinians trying to receive humanitarian aid as “horrifying”.

There are almost daily reports of Palestinians being killed while seeking aid since the Israeli and US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) began to distribute aid in late May. Both Israel and the GHF have disputed death tolls, recorded by the Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza, however the ministry’s figures are widely seen as a reliable count of bodies seen by Gazan hospitals.

Some of the deadliest incidents in recent days include:

Yesterday, at least 67 people waiting for UN aid lorries in northern Gaza were killed

At least 39 Palestinians seeking food were killed near two aid distribution points in southern Gaza on Sunday

On 20 July, at least 21 people died during a crush at a GHF site in Khan Younis

Ten people, including six children, were killed in an air strike while waiting for water in central Gaza on 13 July

Twenty-four people were killed by Israeli fire near a southern aid site on 12 July

On 11 July, at least 15 people, including eight children, were while queuing for nutritional supplements in front of a clinic in central Gaza

Krita with AI Diffusion plugin is the best I’ve seen, you simply circle the part you want to change, write what you want to change in the prompt, click generate, and it does it.

Well then that’s not free speech. If there are any limitations, even sensible ones, it needs a different name. Like, limited speech for example

That’s just not the case when you argue against Marxist Leninism on tankie instances, express any nuance regarding trans people (I say this as a trans person) on blåhaj.zone, or mention other highly charged and divisive subjects. And yes, some people self censor, but only because if they don’t they’ll get properly censored or banned, and have to create a new account.

If it’s being censored they could hardly say it in public could they?
