I am Zach, AKA AceFuzzLord, AKA Dizzy Devil Ducky!

  • That never bugged me too much, but I'll at least be glad it can be disabled for people who really dislike it.

  • Whenever the Amish are mentioned, I know we're hitching up the buggy, churning lot of butter, raise a barn Monday, soon raising another.

  • I need another pet rock

  • For me it's usually letting anyone else put dishes away. Before that, the ¼, ½, ⅓, and 1 cup measure set but I fixed it by putting them upside down.

  • Ah, yes, sending the military to fight against your citizens. Totally like June 4th, 1989. You know, the date where famously nothing happened. In fact, I don't even know why I brought up that date.

  • As far as I'm aware, there are no ways implemented. Got no idea because I'm not smart enough for this type of thing. The only solution I could think of is to implement a paywall (I know, disgusting) to raise the barrier to entry to try and keep bots out. That, and I don't know if it's currently possible, but making it so only people on your instance can comment, vote, and report posts on an instance.

    I personally feel that depending on the price of joining, that could slightly lessen the bot problem for that specific instance since getting banned means you wasted money instead of just time. Though, it might also alienate it from growing as well.

  • Cannot wait to see their solution.

  • I think it would have been funny in an ironic way if he was shot from behind the barrier. Just something to really prove his point.

  • The way I see AI as a tool in a classroom or learning setting is that you should be punished if you willingly used it due to laziness, not understanding the course work, or I assume most likely both. On its own it's not terrible (environment aside), but it's certainly not something I'd accept if I were a teacher grading homework.

  • If we're talking about the library at the college I go to, besides the wireless hotspots for students that need it, probably all the foreign language DVDs and DVD player (most likely portable)if you don't have one.

  • I'm not that old but was dealing with that in the mid-2000s before my parents finally switched.

  • I signed up for the basic version of their VPN, but having their other services like protonmail or drive or pass has been great.

  • Free MP3 Download, which as of October 14, 2024 is still up on the megathread. The moment I start getting into downloading music online outside of downloading audio from yt videos, the site gets taken down a few months later. Now I don't know where to go for DDL since pretty much all of the other linked sites are either anime music, game music, or upload an [ Insert Service ] link and it'll give you an audio file to download from that service.

  • I second raid5 despite not having much experience with it.

  • I don't know if there's an official term, so I call it the vocalsynth genre, which includes things like vocaloid, UTAU, deepvocal, enunu, diffsinger, etcetera.

    One thing I love about it is that they- especially utau because it's free and there are a lot of voicebanks, tutorials/guides, and other things designed specifically for it- allow you to be able to create a song that would normally never be made by a famous or up-and-coming singer. At least the vocals, though, because you still need to make the backing track (or outsource that to someone else). It kinda evens the playing field when you have people who are not good at singing making songs/covers that are just as good as songs from the music industry.

    Plus, there are so many original songs out there and usually covers of said songs that if you don't like one version, you can always find another version that might sound better. That definitely holds true for the biggest songs and even various lesser known songs. All the songs are made from people across the globe, so you end up with a lot of different songs of different genres, themes, etcetera.

  • The only time that voice doesn't work is if the people you're making an appointment with only schedule out a certain time in advance and you need to go out longer. The cardiologist office I go to only ever lets you schedule 6 months in advance and I gotta go yearly, so I don't have that luxury.

  • I wish that would work.

  • Only a couple levels in, but so far I'd say if you like collect-a-thon style 3D platformers, Yooka-Laylee is worth checking out. So far my only complaint is how they allow you to go around certain edges of the first level past the tutorial and hub, but don't have hidden any hidden secrets.

  • The virtual reality you used to see in movies or on TV where you would put on a helmet and actually enter it and have full movement capabilities. Something like that one episode of Batman The Animated Series where Commissioner Gordon goes into the Riddler's computer and gets trapped or just about any other cliche, dumb way they portrayed VR back then.
