I love how this is formatted like a poem

Not what the article says

🥵🥵🥵

Most mp3s have the artist name in the metadata or title. And, even the most rudimentary platforms show this information front and center. It is not an ad. It is a feature we desire. We want to know who made it, so that we can understand its context, its subtexts, and yes, find the artist for more of their work.

Image files typically do not make use of these mechanisms, and certainly the platforms we view them on rarely do. The general convention is to ‘sign’ or watermark it instead.

It is as simple as that. To remove the signature of a webcomic is like stripping an mp3 of all metadata and making the filename a random string. It’s fundamentally an inconvenience to everyone involved. No one wants this.

(This is not to mention that the wholesale removal of attribution and complete divorce of creator and creation serves the ultimate goals of corporations. They’ve done it with food (where does your milk come from), furniture (who made your chair), and now with art (who made this comic?)

You seem to be conflating an ad (buy JokoMolk brand milk!) With attribution (this milk was produced at x farm). Perhaps, if we better understood the orgins of things, we might make informed decisions!)

I used to work in a robotic lab. It’s kind of amazing to me that someone would let a… maybe… 80 lb robot run around in a store without a kill switch.

On a side note, it’s kind of amazing how far physical robotics has come in just that small amount of time. Although, it seems like from a operational standpoint, there hasn’t really been a paradigm shift, in terms of spatial awareness.

This is just simple inverse kinematics, with the most impressive thing being the auto-balancing and micro adjustments to a shifting center’s gravity. Impressive, yes. But, it is a technology that’s existed for a pretty long time, just not in consumer electronics.

Still, I feel like the idea of a full on android is closer than I believed previously. The hardware is pretty much there. If we really do see an exponential acceleration in software development, then I suppose it is inevitable.

I would like to mirror another commentor and mention that Shougo is Japanese and probably issuing Claude to communicate.

I started over doing entry level spray tech work treating exotic plants through americorps and worked my way up. I do a lot of field data collection and gis work now. So, I still utilize my old software skills. I work for my local government doing environmental land management.

GIS is definitely a software adjacent job that is utilized a lot in land management. But that isn’t the initial route I took. I really did just kind of started over.

I did this 9 years ago. I make 2/3rds of what I did in software, but I don’t regret it. pivoted to environmental work. My job satisfaction is like, a thousand percent better.

It’s kind of similar, I think. I mean most store bought bread is low quality compared to the artisinal product. Corporations don’t care if the product sucks so long as they can replace the worker.

This is such a weird post. Is it satirical? Baking as a profession functionally does not exist anymore.

I got elden ring recently. Played it for maybe 4 hours so far. I am utterly convinced that the narrative style is tounge and cheek. Like, actually a joke. That isn’t to say it’s not deep, or interesting on face value, but it’s just so immediate; such a firehose of wackyness… It reminds me of metalgear, so much in its way of being simultaneously non-serious and serious.

At this point it’s literally cheaper and easier to fight WWIII IRL.

Settings->system->switch

It’s prettyI think they could really use making a web page that covers all the current features, because some of the old articles say that the switch doesn’t work or it doesn’t support the Fairphone moments app. I think it actually does, although I haven’t used it yet.

I just got mine yesterday (also USA). I am a little sad to lose tap to pay. Hopefully, microg and team come up with a solution.

The only app that completely refuses to work so far is ClaudeAi.

I configured the physical switch to the flashlight. Are you leaving it on mic and camera?

Where did you get this picture of me 😅😅😅

Shit rolls downhill

😂 girl, I’m not a cop!

God I wish they’d stop putting cameras in these and just make a nice pair of prescription glasses with good integrated headphones, a heads of display, and some basic touch controls on the stem.

I would genuinely enjoy this for easy listening and maps.

He was giving them real school shooter vibes, to the point that employees were manually reviewing his account, but they choose to ban him because they saw it is less than credible.
