  • I got halfway through that sentence and expected it to end with "...and make furry art of the mom."

  • And then there's a follow-up scene the next day, where George tells "Calvin Klein" about the encounter.

    Having George retell it worked way better than showing it directly, IMO.

    Jump

  • The part that was actually in the released movie ends at 0:45. (You can also tell by the fact that the audio/video very obviously changes to daily footage at that point.)

    See also the scene afterward where George tells "Calvin" about the encounter, which IMO worked way better than actually showing the rest of it:

  • Your attitude is very reasonable. I strive to be as unreasonable as I can.

  • Like when you run apt install some-package who says that some-package doesn’t contain malware?

    The Debian (or Ubuntu) package maintainer says that. Having an application package available in a distro's official repository is an endorsement of the safety of that package.

    This is something people need to appreciate before they go adding PPAs and flatpaks and whatnot willy-nilly.

  • This comment prompted me to check the gauge of my city's streetcar, and I am happy to report that it is standard gauge as well. Too bad it only goes down two streets so it's relatively unlikely that a protest would march along it.

    (I kinda need a new barbecue anyway, so it's still a design criterion to keep in mind, just in case.)

  • Middle aged American here, and when I was a kid the culture around me regarding france was basically “lol they surrender.”

    Copied from my earlier comment elsewhere:

    Have an extensive history of military might, from rampaging barbarian hordes, to a continent-conquering emperor, to a foreign legion famed as being one of the most badass fighting forces in the world, and nobody bats an eye. But get embarrassingly outflanked one time, and you never hear the end of it!

    • "rampaging barbarian hordes" -- the Gauls
    • "continent-conquering emperor" -- Napoleon
    • "foreign legion" -- the French Foreign Legion
    • "embarrasingly outflanked" -- the failure of the Maginot Line in WWII

    I've been on Lemmy too long, because this is starting to sound like a double entendre.

  • It's not. it's a completely different set of steps (at least at runtime). The Venn diagram circles don't touch.

  • Nvidia Announces DLSS 5, and it adds... An AI slop filter over your game

    Jump

  • If your training data has a pixelated circle as an input and a circle as output, your neural network will "upscale" your pixelated circle to a circle. If your training data has a pixelated circle as input and a high definition pie as output, your neural network will "upscale" your pixelated circle to a high definition pie. Even if it's the same algorithm in both cases.

  • it’s applying advanced lighting methods like subsurface scattering to make materials more lifelike.

    It is not. It is approximating the results of training data consisting of output images that have been rendered with subsurface scattering. It isn't actually running the subsurface scattering algorithm.

  • Half the conspiracies in this country have been made up

    Jump

  • It seems increasingly to me that the screeching about them is projection by the ones perpetrating them. For example, there is a conspiracy to create a "New World Order," and it's shit like this and this.
