My guess is it could lead to paranoia.


My guess is it could lead to paranoia.
Haha I did that once too, because I had a system that when upgrading I wanted a separate home partition so I could just reassign it to my new install.
I also use KDE, and it is far from minimal, but as I recall my system is only half that with a full system upgrade!
Some say creativity stuff takes much room, but for instance Blender is only ½ a gig.
But maybe my system is bigger than I remember, because even at 40 gig it’s near irrelevant compared to the size of an SSD today, and with 1 gigabit internet the upgrades are fast anyway.
IDK if there’s a way to see the size of my actual Linux install not counting 3rd party media or games?
On my system Blender is only ½ a gig with all dependencies…
76 GB packages from you Linux distro? Did you simply install ALL packeages?
22.8 GiB install size !?
WTF?
I must admit I don’t recall the size of my own installation, but that seems HUGE!
Anyways congratulations on getting it trimmed. 😋


That’s OK, I wouldn’t dream of buying American RAM anyway.


Only if you use their products and allow them to profit from it.


Because lemmy does some automation that often doesn’t work, and for some incredibly stupid reason, you can’t disable it when posting.
As a poster you don’t have 100% control of what is posted, and that is simply wrong.

Sigh, why does lemmy add these useless shitty texts automatically without the possibility to exclude them?


Being radical is not a sign of being progressive in thinking and definitely not a sign of doing what is best.
Being radical left (or right) is not to be more “modern” either.
UK at the time was way more radical on both the left and the right side than most European countries, exactly because of FPTP. And it lead to politically unsustainable solutions. Again a sign of stupid policies, and a sub par form of governance.
Nationalizing is radical, but it’s a double edged sword that can easily become a burden. It was already at that time an old fashioned socialist way of thinking.
The more modern Social democracies of Scandinavia avoided nationalizing but used regulation instead. A model that has been proven on average to work way better.
So again I’d say the UK politicians weren’t neither modern or clever in nationalizing industries, as I wrote in a previous post, and nationalizing an industry has nothing to do with modernizing it, on the contrary nationalized industries tend to become monopolies, and monopolies tend to stifle innovation.
Also the improvements in the Social Democratic countries on health education and infra structure quickly surpassed the UK.


It’s almost like it’s a hobby for Conservatives to lie.


I was told in history lessons, that it was also why UK didn’t modernize after WW2.
While the rest of Europe modernized, especially Germany that had to rebuild a lot.
But when UK rebuild, they made the same mistakes as the first time all over again, because of tradition as you say.


There are striking similarities.


The most idiotic part is that UK actually had a vote to end this shitshow, and they chose not to!!!
How moronic can a population get? Why the fuck did they vote against democracy?

Of course the anti democratic British idiots failed to suggest the only sensible option which is proportional representation!


There have already been several lawsuits against AI companies, where it is revealed that AI art is copied from existing original works.
You may be right, but I don’t think that battle is lost quite yet.
AI is mostly good for memes, beyond that it tends to quickly becomes repetitive, and of little value.
Of course AI art generally has a human “director” guiding the AI on what to do. As I said previously we will see how it turns out.
I’m not sure the end result of this will be within 10 years.


The strategy is to raise prices and get more sales at the same time
Good strategy if he can pull it off. 🤣🤣🤣


That is true, but for instance Ian M Banks predicted AI being able to make art already back in the 70’s in his Culture series of books.
Even accurately simulating famous artists. And his conclusion was that AI should not make art at all, because it would end up detracting from the value of art.
I think the reason the CEO is wrong, is that it will be a legal shitshow, and I think AI art may become illegal, or at the very least required to be clearly labeled as AI art.
We will see how it turns out.
Which distro has Factorio as part of the standard package system?
Seems like a nice way to save €32,-.
