  • Having grown up on sci-fi I always knew there would be people who reject robots and AI on a visceral level. I just thought it wouldn't be me.

  • If it is not from eccentric (or mad) scientists passion project but capitalism hellscape my approval rate stays low.

    Even for a sci fi l read where owning their own computer was illegal (and the protag labeled as terrorist trying to do so) it was government authoritarian stuff, not artificial scarcity and push to subscription or government-megacorp corruption :(

  • 'What a great way to kill your community': Discord users are furious about its new age verification checks — and are now hunting for alternatives

    Jump

  • Tangential, but if it is enforced (alchohol has good reason to do so) it should be enforced impartially regardless of how you look, otherwise it's discrimination. My comment is based on my Asian looking experience.

  • Are protestors in Iran aware of Briar? Would using Briar to communicate via bluetooth be a viable option with the country's current jamming technology?

    Jump

  • I heard people using Bitchat. Yes it is from Jack Dorsey who admitted security risks there but lacking communication with iphone owners can be an issue for them.

  • The epiphany hits hard

    Jump

  • I had a dream of my locally regeional folklore creatures once, all speaking English. Realizing that they're out of character made me so annoyed that I actually woke up.

  • Artists dump X as launch of new AI image editing feature sparks outrage - Cryptopolitan

    Jump

  • Many artists explicitly state no repost without their permission, requiring proper credits and such. It IS a dick move to AIgen-fed edit while directly interacting author's post; that makes people using the AI feature violating author's will knowingly.

    In reality, people don't read artists' comment or bio, when "single button to AIgen and use the art as prompt" exists. It's basically X greenlits anyone to do so against artists' will, and fair use can argue the use of art but never force artists to stay on a platform. That's what's happening. They may have overstayed on a horrible platform blinded by clout they can get there but that is a different story.

  • [Article] Satellites reveal heat leaking from largest US cryptocurrency mining center

    Jump

  • I reckon those heat signatures were used to pinpoint urban greenhouse for certain plants. Just saying, can people divert the heat for another use?

  • I taught an octopus piano (It took 6 months)

  • Their life expectancy is usually less than 2 years though. Does it worth for them to spend that long? We never know.

  • Don't modern drawing tablets usualy have side buttons that ppl set frequently used functions? The gray bars at the side can be such but idk

  • Gut Bacteria from Amphibians and Reptiles Achieve Complete Tumor Elimination IN MICE

    Jump

  • Jp version of the page provided extra explanation, saying the bacteria selectively accumulate in the tumor because cancer tumor is low oxygen environment and other conditions are also suitable for the bacteria to multiply, that process and related chemicals and mice immune system destroy the tumor

  • It's all just about moderation. People can atribute their mistakes to holoscope so that they won't dwell on it and move on, but to use it to deflect legitimate blame would be toxic.

    I say this not because your mention sounds misogynistic but as if using societal acceptance as a bar to judge someone's hobby or ritual (religious or non-religious sense, not limited to witchcraft stuff).

  • Sad, melancholic even.

    Jump

  • No one mentions F1 hybrid? Mass produced vegitables and fruits are often offspring of 2 distinct varieties, carefully selected to inherit desireble traits from both sides but no guarantee for 2nd generation.

    Kind of soft-lock drm bcs people need to keep buying the specific seed if people want max yield. (I've read article gathering seeds from store brought tomato, growth werent great and the yields were unstable in both taste and quantity, but they managed to iterate 6 generations or so. The "traits" of F1 offsprings stabilize around that so you can keep growing your own variety).

    Heirloom seeds don't have this issue, but they likely have quirks or less immunity compared to F1.

  • Me failing to do justice to the wonderful 1910s silent movie star Florence LaBadie. Dip pen, December 2025.

  • I like how you did the hair, it has character and nice contrast between the rest of the shading style.

  • The Fediverse and Content Creation: Monetization

    Jump

  • Artists need exposure before monetization imho, which currently fedi lacks severely. So discoverability is what I suggest as priority to work on.

    That said, algorithm free is the draw of fedi as well and I personally don't want my feed filled with excessive ad or self promo spam. Getting the right middle ground will be tricky.

  • It's all negative data

  • It's OK to just like lemon water.

    Jump

  • Even regular neutral water shifts to slightly acidic (5.6) as long as it has contact to air (CO2 dissolving). Would be interesting to know how long those store bought alkaline water becomes base or acidic.

  • Come back to this post in 2030's

  • In the beginning, autumn and spring duration were 13 weeks. Then six, then three weeks. The last autumn lasted for a week. In next year they will be four days, we could be seeing a summer and winter transition in eight hours, until they switch in four minutes.

  • When rich people can edit their kids DNA won't that just lock everyone else out and create a new class?

    Jump

  • Technology is (at least for now) not exclusive to the rich. There can be billionaires' secret labs and underground diy labs. Since few science fictions pop up in the topic and CRISPER is mentioned, I am going to leave CRISPER cookbook and Chapter 2 which was written in response to Roe vs Wade.
