Doing the Lord’s work in the Devil’s basement
To clarify : We’re talking about differences in the codebase here. They are still exactly the same game, with some very minor disparities in certain mechanics.
The technical differences tend to disappear over time because they rely more and more on the datapack format, which is shared between the two codebases.
That’s because arch is very old and back in the days it was prone to breakage. Ironically, it is now much more stable and easy to maintain than an Ubuntu derivative but people will still recommend Mint to beginners for some reason.
No it’s actually very simple stuff. Arch is surprisingly stable and easy to manage, and had been for the better part of a decade
Oh boy. You’re about to discover the wide world of male sex toys and it’s gonna rock you.
Also their role system is badass. It’s incredibly fine grained and makes it possible to manage large communities with plenty of different user levels.
Yeah sounds more like an indie cash grab. Although I do like the “no guns” angle
I think gaben has retained his popularity because you just never hear about him. He doesn’t go around publicly doing evil shit so he’s got the benefit of the doubt. Not that I disagree with your general point about billionaires…
I’m not much into it but I think Polyphia is a good example. I once got down a rabbit hole of related bands on YouTube, I don’t remember the names but it definitely is a scene. It’s hyper technical, definitely progressive, but you’ll hear little if any overdrive, kind of like the latest Tool album but taking it even further.
Tim Hansen from Polyphia is like nothing I’ve ever heard. He even plays on nylon strings most of the time, and he just shreds the fuck out of it. Check him out on YouTube if you haven’t already!
There’s also Polyphia and that whole movement of progressive metal with no distortion. Their technical level is stellar.
I don’t know about the US but in European GDPR parlance, of it can be reversed then it is NOT anonymized and it is illegal to claim otherwise. The correct term is pseudonymized.
Artists are perfectly able to use the fediverse, that is not what is stopping them.
They don’t come because they need to be where their fans are. That is why Cara will only be a splash: their niche is artists who place more value on the anti-AI slant than on meeting their audience where it lives. By definition that is not conducive to a lot of organic growth.
I’ve worked on a couple of Saas in Europe and thankfully GDPR has shaken things a lot. What you have to look for is terms of use where you are the controller, and the Saas is only a processor. In that case they don’t have the right to use the data you generate for their own purposes. This generally excludes telemetry like product analytics and logs, but even those must not include any user data, just an opaque id and technical informations.
It is not a false dichotomy though.
Being mentally healthy and well integrated does not require you to live in a perfect, just and balanced universe. It requires you using all the cognitive, psychological and philosophical tools at your disposal to deal with the universe on its own terms.
Keeping yourself depressed for the sake of “not being deluded” is in itself a mental illness symptom, and only has negative consequences for everyone.

Large language models like GPT, llama, and Gemini don’t create anything new
That’s because it is a stupid use case. Why should we expect AI models to be creative, when that is explicitly not what they are for?
Disclaimer : I currently work in the field, not on the fundamental side of things but I build tooling for LLM-based products.
There are a ton of true uses for newer AI models. You can already see specialized products getting mad traction in their respective niches, and the clients are very satisfied with them. It’s mostly boring stuff, legal/compliance like Hypercomply or accounting like Chaintrust. It doesn’t make headlines but it’s obvious if you know where to look.
Or you could just prompt it to not guess prices for articles that don’t exist. Those models are pretty good at following instructions.
Love it, please keep up the good work!
holy shit you’re right i don’t know where i got the idea that it was the same format
