In today’s chautauqua…
Whether or not it’s worth it remains to be seen, but that’s the main use-case I can see that this board adds that appeals to more than just tinkerers.
Awful title from Hackaday, makes it sound like the Raspberry Pi itself is growing in size. It’s actually just an oversized accessory you can attach a Pi 5 to. The article body itself doesn’t do a whole lot to make that clear, either, until you click through the links and see better pictures of the product.
I can’t even remember the last thing I burned, had to have been over 10 years ago and it was likely install media for some Linux distro. I haven’t had a functional audio CD player in a very long time.
I did, however, rip a couple audio discs a few months ago. I was surprised that my USB disc drive still functioned.
edit: just read the other comments and I find it hilarious how almost everyone burned some distro install media
They won’t, ever. Not the general public, at least. Most are still perfectly content and onboard with paying for 10 different streaming services for music/movies/TV. Only immediate numbers mean anything, and $5/mo is better than $10 once, simply because 10 is larger than 5. Plus, look at all this extra shit I didn’t want that is included!
I see it wholly as a loss, because it advances the idea of subscriptions for anything and everything, and Microsoft will be right there on the front lines taking advantage of the new revenue stream (so losing local installs won’t hurt them at all and is what they’re going for).
Seems to me like there will be a split. A lot of critical thinkers that are frugal will move to Linux and up its market-share, but there will also be a lot of deals that companies make with cloud computing platforms as well for their employees instead of purchasing new laptops (which will probably also allow them to cut back on their IT staff).
Those that are still lost when it comes to tech from 20 years ago will also buy into cloud compute platforms just because they use it at work and can’t be arsed to learn something slightly different.
In the general public’s eye: convenience is literally everything
lmao, you got me there!
Indeed, but I can’t use video games as an example in that time period
I wasn’t dogging on the author, actually praising them. In case you haven’t read the book, this is what Soma is.
If it was a typo: Freudian slip, serendipitous If it was intentional: More kudos to the writer, clever
Either way I find it funny and perfectly fitting.
Exactly. Or, to be more precise to the point of the comment that started this thread:
Physics is to Chemistry what AI is to LLMs
100% this, people say they understand AI is a buzzword, but don’t realize just how large of an umbrella that term actually is.
Enemy NPCs in video games back to the 80’s fall under AI.
Quote from the article:
With the mass adoption of ChatGPT, MidJourney, and soon Soma, OpenAI’s video-generating application
Mis-typed Sora, or is that a cheeky reference to A Brave New World?
Looks like it’s time to ditch PieFed. The past week has uncovered some other pretty shitty inconsistencies and incompatibilities with Lemmy instances that are beginning to make it impossible to use.
Just for your future reference I guess, might help to post a comment or put the link the description for other fediverse platforms that are clearly lagging behind.
Must be something wrong with Piefed then, because there is no link whatsoever in the post as I am looking at it right now, other than the image’s link. The title isn’t a link, either, just text.
Maybe post a source, since you quoted something from somewhere…
It’s not that they didn’t post a source, it’s that not all fediverse platforms are compatible with the Reddit-way of posting.
For those that don’t have a link in the description or title, a source:
Actual: https://openai.com/index/disney-sora-agreement/
Archive: https://archive.ph/NMDdb
In the very quote you pasted:
Newer versions of Mickey Mouse remain copyright-protected.
It’s only the version that was in those original cartoons that is public domain.
The ouroboros vibes are strong with these companies
Ohhh, very odd. I’ve been noticing a lot of inconsistencies between Lemmy and PieFed like this, and now an app is something else entirely. Seems the fediverse is not unified on markdown support!
Apologies if I came off as condescending, not my intention.
