I did not always use an ad blocker. Frankly my stance is they’ve made their bed, now they get to lie down in it. If it wasn’t for YouTubes ad quality being so poor I would have never bothered taking the 30 seconds it takes to install an adblock those 10 or so years ago

Probably not, it’s from way back in last year and an original

Okay so imagine for a second that somebody just invented voice to text and everyone trying to sell it to you lies about it and claims it can read your thoughts and nobody will ever type things manually ever again.

The people trying to sell us LLMs lie about how they work and what they actually do. They generate text that looks like a human wrote it. That’s all they do. There’s some interesting attributes of this behavior, namely that when prompted with text that’s a question the LLM will usually end up generating text that ends up being an answer. The LLM doesn’t understand any part of this process any better than your phones autocorrect, it’s just really good at generating text that looks like stuff it’s seen in training. Depending on what exactly you want this thing to do it can be extremely useful or a complete scam. Take for example code generation. By and large they can generate code mostly okay, I’d say they tend to be slightly worse than a competent human. Genuinely really impressive for what it is, but it’s not revolutionary. Basically the only actual use cases for this tech so far has been glorified autocomplete. It’s kind of like NFTs or Crypto at large, there is actual utility there but nobody who’s trying to sell the idea to you is actually involved or cares about that part, they just want to trick you into becoming their new money printer.

It looks like it was an accident, everything else has much higher resolutions

Douno off the top of my head. To take a wild guess they might just wrap a file handle and give it s nice api? If that’s what they do then moving from the file zeros out he handle for basically the same reason smart pointers set their internal pointer to nullptr, so they don’t delete it (or close the file in this case) underneath the new object.

Depends on the object what happens when they are moved from. Some objects are put into a valid moved from state (usually depends on if doing so is free or required anyway. For example to satisfy the invariant of the moved to unique pointer the moved from pointer needs to be set to nullptr in order to prevent the moved tos unique pointer being deleted from underneath it)

I caught up, chapter 50. Um so frankly put this is just porn. I’m genuinely kind of invested now though so fuck it, this is going on my trackers

Hmmmmmmmm

Half way through the first chapter and it hasn’t hooked me yet but I am still… intrigued.

Okay so chapter two down and I think I’m noticing a pattern in who is bothering to translate this Manga so far. Both chapters were done by totally different people and neither was super high quality (though not terrible). Wonder if pattern persists since there’s 50 chapters at least where I’m sourcing it from.

Lol this dudes a trooper they learned not just English but also Japanese competently enough to translate it well enough. Hats off to you Chekov

I’m not sure why exactly but the fact they are going to research more “lewd sounds” is incredibly funny to me

Alright so chapter 8 kind of hooked me, been about half an hour of time investment so far including updating this here comment so if anyone else is also curious there ya go.

It’s not controversial your just really stupid or really stupid and also a natzi

It hasn’t though? That short “film” in the thumbnail is very not great. Just to summarize a few issues clothing items randomly change colors, clothes randomly switch to different clothes, they attempted to copy the really nice crane shot in Frieren but used “AI” to do it which just smeared ugly green shit around the screen cause there were leaves, a path they are walking on randomly changes material multiple times, ect ect. All the usual AI video crap. They didn’t solve any of the issues it has and it there’s one “animator” credited.

Spoilers if you care (no I’m not going to actually mark them) but there’s a part where using AI would have been a really good directing decision, especially with the faults but because the “director” is just a tech bro who’s incapable of understanding art they completely missed an extremely good use case.

Actual animation studios don’t and won’t use this crap until it’s dramatically better. The closest thing they currently use is cacani (actually an interesting tool scroll through that) and it uses absolutely no “Ai” whatsoever

Yeah I’m not sure why it shits the bed so badly. If it helps you can move the folder under local (rather than downloads/<source>) and it’ll show it again

Please, I don’t want Okay Buddy Hololive brain rot on lemmy

Because it sounds like English words which is “cool”

I genuinely don’t know why people are confused about the Demons in frieren. They are fundamentally incompatible with humanity. There is no Grey zone. They are monsters, not your happy friendly fantasy where some monsters are good monster monsters. The only connections they are capable of understanding is strength. The only language they truly understand is power. They learned the human tongue not to communicate but to manipulate. The anime and the Manga make it exceptionally clear, the Demons in Frieren are just monsters. There is no redemption. Just like how you can’t genocide a lion, or a mosquito you cannot genocide the demons in frieren.

Eyy I just watched Red Ranger, extremely enjoyable for how stupid it is. I bet I’d have loved power rangers if I watched it as a kid

Since there’s been some good replies to this I shall now add my oh so very important reply to the pile.

Water isn’t actually wet, water wets things. Is a cup filled with water wet? No, the cup is dry and contains water. Are freshly washed dishes wet? Yeah, they have some water on them that hasn’t dried off yet.

“Is water wet”, “Is (breakfast) cereal a soup” and “Are hotdogs a sandwich” are some of my favorite stupid nonsense arguments to have. It’s entirely pointless but there is an actual right answer going by the definitions

Until you’ve paid hundreds of dollars into using your own internet to play online (on servers your console company doesn’t even pay for)

No you can’t? Do you even know what the steam deck is? It’s a hand held gaming device, like the Nintendo Switch. Adding a computer monitor to the steam decks price tag is nonsensical. Like the Switch you’d be using a TV if your hooking it into something. A wireless controller? Why? It’s a steam deck it has a controller built in. Joystick grips? The fact you think those are needed goes to show how shit the standard console controllers are lmao.

I can’t judge but wow. Impressive

You cannot have a string argument, arguments and variables in JS don’t have a type. All you have in JS is objects. Actual functions, like full on function foo(){} are still objects, like you can actually store data on the things.
