Personally I think everyone is wrong here, but none of it in a mean or jerky way, just in perspective .

For your parents, it’s definitely a different vibe now, we need to be more socially conscious about walking up to a woman, we should understand that that is inherently a dangerous place for a woman and she is likely on her guard.

That being said, you shouldn’t be afraid to speak to women either, that is likely just as bad. Women are just people, they have like and dislikes, and you should talk to them the same way you would anyone.

So, I guess what I’m saying is that the days of pickup lines and sauntering over are gone. But there’s absolutely nothing wrong striking up a conversation either, and in fact I encourage it. Notice things, maybe they’re wearing a band T-shirt of a band you like, maybe they have a cool sticker on their phone or laptop, show interest. Don’t be afraid of them.

Honestly not a bad idea, and with the increasing regulations to save the children this would show that the fediverse is making an effort. We may not be highly scrutinized at our current levels, but I don’t doubt that eventually we will be

But but why are the studios who are focusing on making quality games doing okay?! - asks the profit focused studios

God I’m getting sick of the repetitive posts saying the same thing. I’m a human being. I run an instance. I am personally liable for whatever crap my users post. Damn right I’m not going to allow Tor or vpns, and my instance will absolutely take down something if it could land me in trouble. I’m not going to have the feds bust down my door because someone wants to make a bonkers statement.

That’s the joy of federation. Anyone can go and spin up their own instance. There are cloud providers that have a single click option to set one up for you. Go forth OP, be the privacy focused VPN tor instance. You take the personal responsibility on yourself and then come back here and post about it.

I remember reading something from a sound editor for movies and TV. Essentially no director wants to halt production and re-do a scene because the audio is bad. It’s pretty hard to redo a scene if the camera didn’t get a good shot, it’s even harder if the camera was good but the audio was off. Most directors will just say “Just fix it in post”.

But, there aren’t really enhancements for audio. A bad segment of audio is always bad. You can’t just amplify the hell out of it and have it sound good. So the lower the budget the movie, the more costly it is to redo a shot, and the more likely they’ll tell the sound guys that they’ll have to deal with it.

It only takes one person to share to one site and have it reshared, up voted, liked, for it to take off

Math class taught me to be precise I should always say “1 and 32 hundredths Megabytes”

Any that you’re willing to start up? I’m always looking for new communities to join!

I saw a “veteran” crying in a wheelchair with 13 fingers and the comments were just elderly people saying amen. They have no idea that AI even exists as a context

Dignity

Eh, even with that she should still understand consequences. I’d give her long time outs. Next time she does say that you are offended, and need time away. Start with a couple of days. When she does it again make it a week no contract. Make sure she knows its because she was mean and you don’t want to be around mean people. Hold firm during that time.

I don’t like just saying one and done, give them a chance to change their ways. Even with autism that is informing them that they were offensive, and that there are consequences to that. It’s their cross to bear, and I think that’s being very generous in helping them learn that.

Driving should be a very compassionate activity, but us monkey brains use our most selfish tendencies when doing it. I just take the bus now.

Yes. Driving is about predictability. Anything you can to let other drivers predict what you will do is helpful, even if it feels redundant.

Yup, can confirm. Go into it knowing what you would like it to be, and have a list of tlds you are okay with, plan to purchase once and only once. I like namecheap personally.

Ah okay, I think that makes sense. Thanks for your input! I’ll give it a whirl

That’s a great start! A lot of it depends on OpenAI, is there any guide you know of that lets me run completely locally? I use TabbyAPI for most of my inference, and happy to run anything else for training

I understand conceptually how these work, but I have a hard time of how to get started . I have the model, I know embeddings exist and what they are, and rags, and vector dbs, and then I have my SQL DB. I just don’t know what the steps are.

Do you have any guides you recommend?
