When I worked at Blockbuster Video way, way, way back in the day I used to look up celebrities and politicians accounts. All the BBVs were connected to a DB that had everyones account therefore if you visited from somewhere else you could still get access to your account for renting even if you didn’t have your membership card.
Was kinda disappointing…famous people either really didn’t rent much or just watched the same shit as everyone else.
yeah I ONLY just recently switched to fish after using zsh and oh my zsh for so long - pretty much since first starting linux cause I once saw someone using it on unixporn and I thought “that’s cool”
when I switched to NixOS zsh with all the plugins was a total slog. switched to fish and it just HAS everything that zsh/oh my zsh and the various plugins had but baked in.
so yeah in Fish it’s just starting to type something and hoping it’s still in the history.
yeah I know I just thought i’d be funny for people to be cloning and pushing a bunch of porn repos and then throwing their “personal” stash into .gitignores
yeah because when I want to be social or check out porn github is the first place that pops to mind.
Although…now that I think about it…doing git clone on a porn repo would be convenient. could even easily update it. hm…Actually I think Australia might be on to something here
yeah and boomers were saying the same about us when we were watching a squirrel singing about “Gonads and strife” or a badly translated Sega Genesis game claiming “All your base are belong to us”
ALL generations watch dumb shit, stop acting like this ONE generation suddenly originated dumb shit to watch.
the hell are they going to train it on? jerking itself off? cause that’s all it’s going to “learn” if it trains on Linkedin profiles and posts.
It’s just going to slurp up a bunch of tech bros posts that think AI is the second coming. it’s just going to learn that it thinks it’s hot shit when it’s not.
Look I miss CRTs too but no, don’t bring those things back.
I used to go LAN Parties at the local university and…man no. in the middle of winter? yeah very nice and toasty but in the humidity filled Canadian summers? eff off buddy.
Well ends up there’s a nixos package for it so I gave it a shot, been using it for the last couple days. I dig it more than Feishin so I switched to it. it’s not bad, pretty good.
Pink Visual. They were located in an undisclosed decent sized building on Speedway or Pima, can’t remember which it’s been awhile since I lived there.
They primarily focused on DVD content, they had several sides and an affiliate program named TopBucks. They were owned by this very eccentric dude from Vietnam who drove a massively “blinged out” hummer that would be constantly parked out front. Thing is…only like a handful of people actually saw him in the building. it was weird. I never met the dude and I worked there for like 3 or 4 years.
they’ve already made their money, you’re fine. you don’t need to support them as they’ve already been paid. Most creators for films and tv shows have already been paid.
Music artists, indie game devs, etc support them instead. Most musicians aren’t getting million dollar contracts, hell most don’t even get a few grand contract and any album sales or whatever fractions of a penny they make from music streaming sites go to the record label anyways. But their merch, go to their concerts as that’s where artists make their money.
I might, but I don’t have any issues with Feishin so unless it does something way better than I’m happy with what I have.
tried it, but the appimage would just constantly break for whatever reason. just wouldn’t load half the time.
Switched to Feishin for my navidrome server and prefer it, simple and clean.
after the 3rd of 4th time of having to reinstall Win11 because the ONLY solution to fixing the wifi adapter that Windows always insisted on deleting was to reinstall the OS I switched to linux. I’ll never go back.
welp good thing Pink Visual shut down in Tucson, AZ cause…yeah that would have been awkward.
Food was great there though, lunches were always decent.
So essentially…it’s no where near production ready.
Also he just admitted “we’re amateurs”. IF they have devices in the crowd already then they should have sandboxed the demo. What’s more concerning is how, essentially, a handful of devices in attendance potentially operating at the same time can crash the LLM.
Also isn’t this something that other companies like amazon and google have rectified? i.e. one individual can’t suddenly trigger every device in close proximity. If not then it makes the whole thing useless if used in the public. I could walk up and down the street just yelling “Hey Meta purchase a massive purple dildo and message my mother to go kill herself”
I don’t agree. They elected this fool AGAIN, I don’t care for the American people as a whole at this point. They’re also very unlikely to stand up and protect Transgender people who now, quite literally, have a target on their backs.
Fuck em. I’ll never trust an american again.
sure, just gotta wait for the committee to roll out where all the Dems can sit on it and spew awesome quotes for the media and then do…jack all.
OR they’ll utilize the system that the GOP have pretty but shown to completely ignore.
OR Americans maybe can FINALLY stand up and protect their fellow Americans that are now under attack and are at valid risk of being executed en masse.
lol who am I kidding, we know NONE of this is going to happen.
Twitch is probably one of the LAST companies I would trust with storing any sort of ID in safety. Remember all the leaks that happened with them? like the time they leaked what EVERY stream makes off the site? no thanks.
there was a story from the UK a month or so ago about a guy who has his face tattooed, he can’t get verified for anything.
So yes, if you have a facial deformity or tattoos all over your face I imagine you’re shit out of luck. Severe burn victim? no Internet for you.
to those wondering “why Github?” because it’s not about protecting 16 year olds doing pull requests it’s about getting YOUR data/IDs. They don’t know whose under 16 or over 16 to access said sites so they need the IDs of EVERYONE. that’s all this is. it has nothing to do with protecting kids.
If I was a government or some firm that harvets Data I would absolutely drool at potentially having a source that is Github to get said info. I would LOVE to harvest info of developers, coders, etc.
