Audiobooks, audiobooks, audiobooks.

I work with my hands though, so having an audiobook on while I spuddle away isn’t much of an issue.

I’ll pause it when someone wants to talk to me. I use music when I have to think. But on slow days, audiobooks all day long.

Instance block chatgptjailbreak.tech. Another set of problems solved.

I don’t do anything with it, pure set and forget. I probably should, I don’t use XXX at all. NSFW is under a different stack, different gluetun, and different network namespace. As for size, I don’t know but I found this in the FAQ:

What are the system requirements for bitmagnet?

As a rough guide, you should allow around 300MB RAM for BitMagnet, and at least 1GB RAM for the Postgres database. You should allow roughly 80GB of disk space per 10 million torrents, which should suffice for several months of crawling, however there is no upper limit to how many torrents might ultimately be crawled. The database will run fastest when it has plenty of RAM and a fast disk, preferably a SSD.

BitMagnet installation

Servarr integration

I’ll add that I have BitMagnet, and Prowlarr under a Gluetun container.

I run one because why not. I’ve set it as No1 priority in Prowlarr, with the same requirements as any other indexer. BitMagnet is currently second for successful grab count.

I just set and forget it, reccomended compose. Bind mount the DB to a NVME and let it do its thing. It’s at ~20m entries currently and isn’t climbing much from there. Although it’s No1 priority I consider it a back up so I don’t give it too much attention if I’m honest.

I use the paperless scanner inbuilt into the paperless app. Works fine

Incredible campaign

Isn’t the opposite true? How do people talk and experience games?

“I played GTA and Michael drove a car off a bridge” Vs “I played GTA and I drove a car off a bridge”

The same doesn’t hold true for other media: “I was watching/reading LoTR and Frodo walked to Mordor” vs “I was watching LoTR and I walked to Mordor”

I prefer spelling it with an extra “Raw”

I’m gonna make the jump to nixOS eventually. I’m just about comfortable with YAML and only in the context of docker-compose. The leap from that to nix seems too great. I’ll start this year though.

I’m on my anticorp march right now and currently targeting Google. Search is done with searxng. Next is docs. Then email. Then Maps. Then the behemoth that is Amazon.

If genAI is a tool, can you tell me what exactly it is that it does?

“What do you mean you were led to believe I don’t know what it does” - person who asked what it does.

That assumption?

Please tell me the piece was called “who’s afraid of RedAI”

If genAI is a tool, can you tell me what exactly it is that it does?

Just to be clear, you just learned that GenAI can be used as a tool to help someone interpret text? Well at least you learned something.

This is what I mean by hyperbole being "AI-bad"s own undoing. You know AI as tool can do things. You try use what it can do as insult, but sadly all you do is errode your own credibility. It is funny though.

I suppose it’s better you’re here. You could have been out there repeating history

The point of learning long division is so you understand it. Once you understand it, THEN you can use the calculator.

That wasn’t my experience of learning long division. Not a lot of time was spent on understanding the process. A lot of time was spent on repetition, repetition, repetion until it was wrote. The division button on the calculator was faster, does offload my thinking, but it’s easier and gave more accurate results. Using my calculator in long division class would have been considered cheating though, offloading my thinking like that.

But counter to that, I also spent a lot of time in Dreamweaver chasing the dotcom bubble that popped before I entered the job market. Even with the pop we see websites everywhere for everything.

No. The corollary of my luddite argument is that tools are tools. Attacking the tools don’t work to solve systemic problems.

If genAI is a tool, can you tell me what exactly it is that it does?

See my first comment for one example of students using it as a tool.

See, the “AI bad” people are funny. In a reply to comment about how people are actually using GenAI as a tool to achieve their goals “If genAI is a tool, can you tell me what exactly it does”? I must say, admitting to not not having a clue what genAI even does is a massive hit to your credibility on this topic. But to answer your question about what it is that generative AI does as a tool: it generates things. Pictures, videos, text, music, it generates things.

It is a shame the airways a late clogged with this nonsense instead of how the wealthy are using tools, any tools, to concentrate wealth.

Look, GenAI is a tool, use it for what you think it’s useful for (even if you think that’s nothing). Let others use it for what they think it’s useful for. But for the love of god, attack the system not the tools.

Someone just told me that Ecco the Dolphin, by virtue of not having AI, is saving the planet. There really should be a comm devoted to the things AntiAI peeps say.

I didn’t really say AI bad,

Implying GenAi gives wrong answers isn’t saying AI bad?

If you ask AI the same question twice you get 2 answers, different AIs give different responses, different prompts, different people, different geography.

That’s true of people too, and we trust them to do all sorts of things. Ask 20 people what happens after you die, how many answers are you getting? Not just that ask any technical question, ask 4 beekeepers the best way to do a thing and you’ll get 5 answers.

GenAI is a tool, if you try use it to hammer in nails you’re gonna have a bad time. Don’t try use it to hammer in nails.

It turns out wrote answers to wrote questions is something it does fairly well, and it’s still getting better. That’s good, as a society we’ve moved past wrote answers to wrote questions. We should now prepre kids for the society they are going to grow up in, one with GenAI. Critical thinking is something it does fairly poorly, critical thinking is something we do fairly poorly, let’s teach that.

Beyond academics, shitty throwaway art is something it can also do fairly well. Just want an image use GenAi, want a master piece get a human. You already do this, how many of your clothes are handmade? Used a milliner recently? The Luddites taught us a lesson, attacking looms don’t work.

I hope I was the last generation to spend hours on long division with quotes of “you won’t always have access to a calculator”. Those that go into fields where long division may be useful should learn it, the rest of us have calculators.

Nah I grew up with the “you won’t always have a calculator in your pocket” crowd.

If AI gets everything wrong then students using it to offload their thinking will get failing grades. AI getting everything wrong is a self solving problem.

But sure, attack the person, not the argument. I’m sure we’ll have a well reasoned discussion.

The AI bad crowd are really tripping up the capitalism bad crowd. I don’t know what to do about it. I don’t want them stop, they’re hilarious:

The post complaining that GenAI is used for CSAM, tools used for CSAM is bad, and the people that use those tools are bad people. The tool used to complain about AI: the internet!!! The internet, famously absent of CSAM.

The constant hyperbole is funny. Not so much the witch hunts. We can all see the post, students using AI to get through classes means AI can get their questions right. The hyperbole is funny.

Accusing anything and everything of being AI is pretty shitty though, knock it off.

But, they do distract from genuine concerns about how capitalism is using tools, any tools, to concentrate wealth. The tools are tools, it’s the capitalism that’s the problem.

I assume everyone here is wearing cloth made on a loom. The Luddites taught us that attacking the tool (the loom in that case, GenAI in this one) doesn’t work.

It’s good that students are using ai to cheat then. We won’t need to detect it as the answers are wrong.

Worked for the dotcom bubble. It blew up and we were left with corporate hellscape internet, not so/interesting independent internet, and the dark web.

AI will blow up leaving a few massive players, the Google/Facebook/etc equivalent. Some independent people doing interesting and not so interesting things. And a dark web.

I can’t vouch for it. But my understanding is that DOS is it’s own wild west of Case By Case Basis. My understanding is that if DosBox pure would be happy with the .zip you give it, Romm may or may not be. If DosBox won’t fire it up with no tinkering god help you.

I got fallout to run in a desktop instance, but it still didn’t run on Romm. Gpt suspects it’s the nested folder structure

/INTRPLAY/FALLOUT/[game stuff here including data folders]

Gpt is wrong more than it’s right though.
