  • I like that it isn't just a binary "yes/no". IMCO there's a big difference between using AI to generate a few assets/b-roll, and entirely automated video pipelines.

  • That's a lot of work just to avoid switching to subscribed view.

  • we need more users

    Jump

  • Yeah, there was confusion (and accusations I was spreading misinformation) because zip is still running 1.6.0-dev, with the old wording. While the new wording on .social running 1.6.1 seems like a needed improvement.

  • I was going to suggest source mage but it looks like it's dead

  • Finland's Ministry of Justice is considering halting its plans to start using US-hosted cloud services

    Jump

  • That was my first reaction, but anyone who's been anywhere near the civil service knows it will take 16 meetings just to decide to have a meeting about it. The fact they've started considering it within a year means this must be high priority.

  • Why don't cursive numbers exist?

    Jump

  • The "and" is necessary in British English at least (saying that the US constitution uses it)

    (In older forms it would be three hundred and seven and twenty)

  • Why don't cursive numbers exist?

    Jump

  • I don't know how universal it was, but in old documents it's common to see dates written out fully in the form of "on the thirty-first day of January in the year of our lord two thousand and twenty-six"

    Is it okay to put emojis in your LinkedIn bio?

    Jump

  • 🐟 is technically a pictograph not an emoticon.

  • Why don't cursive numbers exist?

    Jump

  • Traditionally numbers in text should be written out fully, so "three hundred and twenty seven" instead of "327"

    Also western Arabic numerals are relatively new to English, before we used Roman numerals, which are all upper case.

  • thoughts on this insider threat case?

    Jump

  • There was a recent case in South Korea where it was bypassed by just writing it down with pen and paper manually.

  • Hereditary haemochromatosis?

  • With the current situation with Tiktok, it's time for the Fediverse to rise.

    Jump

  • Personally I think IPFS or similar will be a better solution to decentralised video, federation seems inefficient for it, but I'll be happy to be proven wrong.

    Shame the US gov killed LBRY, that seemed kinda promising too.

  • Bold of you to assume they don't already have access to all the existing NSA backdoor.

  • If someone tells you "you support socialism, yet you use products of capitalism", what would you say?

    Jump

  • Ask them why they use products made in Communist China.

  • Ah, the noble profession of privateering!

    Jump

  • Now, take Sir Francis Drake; the Spanish all despise him

    But to the British he's a hero and they idolise him

    It's how you look at buccaneers that makes them bad or good

    And I see us as members of a noble brotherhood!
