Isn’t this better than trying to make it so that you never click off YouTube, the way it works if you are logged in? I would much rather have no recommendations than have an algorithm give me recommendations with the express purpose of maximising ad revenue extraction from me
People already do this on “low-tech” levels ie community monitoring and alerts, but yes it’s not been done on particularly high-tech levels in a similar manner to the surveillance state
I think the use case would be for laptops, for people who want to comfortably use their laptops outside or just want their laptop screens to be easier on the eyes. Only slightly different to a tablet insofar as it has a physical keyboard, so i imagine the tablets could be adapted.
Okay…? Your point?
How is it not transformative and intentional to reinterpret neurological signals as music?
I mean it also means I inherently have an off-site backup, which is important given that my home occasionally gets raided by the police. I’m not worried about data access since I use FDE on everything, but data loss is a real concern.
I know what you mean; I think it would be hurtful to people with Parkinson’s, but whatever, I luckily don’t have Parkinson’s so not much point arguing it.
Characterising involuntary but normal phenomenon as intentional or artistic is maybe a little less gross, but still asinine.
That seems like a very bizarre take. Isn’t that a very common artistic device, to find creative interpretations of natural phenomena, and to imagine intention where there is none? I mean, art is subjective so maybe that’s just your personal taste, but it seems like a strange thing to be offended by to me.
It seems to be the journalist presenting it as such, but in any case, I don’t think the artists are suggesting it’s equivalent to what the guy made when he was alive. It’s an interesting artwork riffing off of the fact that the person whom the DNA belonged to was a musician. That also seems like a pretty disrespectful way to talk about people with Parkinson’s.
That’s a pretty misleading headline. The news article is about a cool art installation, in which an artist has used a deceased composer’s DNA to produce electrical signals that are interpreted as music. Still cool, but it’s not “composing music” in the same sense as the alive musician was composing music.
I rent because of government surveillance; I want my server in a different country.
It’s not an outlandish amount, but for instance I have my own VPS where I host a variety of services, and it still has under 1TB storage. Most hobbyists who rent a VPS would have less storage than that.
Given the US adults I see on the internet, I would hazard a guess that they’re right.
I don’t know about the US specifically, but oftentimes, and definitely where I’m from, laws can have a small amount of “common sense” leeway and judges can find justifications for rulings if they want to rule a particular way. e.g. I have pirated games that I legally bought because there’s literally no functioning “official” download link anymore, if anyone were to ever prosecute me for that, even if it were illegal technically a judge could find a way to rule it lawful out of sympathy or whatever other reason, if they wanted to. A lot of the time it’s “the government can’t have possibly intended this law to be enforced this way, therefore I rule XYZ”.
In any case, as you said, I’ve never heard of anyone being pursued for that. And if it’s not enforced, it’s not a law.
I represent myself in all my cases :)
Great news for defendants though. I hope at my next trial I look over at the prosecutor’s screen and they’re reading off ChatGPT lmao
If you run any proprietary software connected to the internet then it can send this info to whomever. If you use a regular web browser with Javascript enabled then a lot of this info can also be obtained by whatever website you’re visiting.
Only if you use privacy as the opposite of public. “Privacy”, though, generally refers to counter/non-surveillance. It’s not surveillance to be able to access data that you explicitly publish publicly.
It’s quite common for nazis to do both. “The death count is inflated, but they deserved it anyway/I wish it were more” and such.
“Why are you so mad” I’m having a casual conversation on a social media platform lol.
Filesystem doesn’t matter hugely but as the other user said, ext4 will be the fastest anyway (possibly xfs, not sure how ext4 and xfs compare). CoW filesystems like btrfs are slower, though most people don’t notice a significant difference. People use CoW filesystems for other features like self-healing ability and backups.
I would strongly recommend getting an AMD card. As the other user says, AMD’s drivers are fully FOSS and work well with Linux. Nvidia has a bad reputation with Linux and especially Wayland, though these days it’s mostly usable, but IME is still prone to breakage upon updates. IME AMD GPUs “just work”.
