Not meta enough.
Have a CGI artist make a video that looks like a video created by AI of fake people drawing it.

You can get up to 12 minutes locally even if you’re patient. Technically you can go way further if you do it in parts though, and use multiple generations. Might take a few weeks to “direct” it right though, depending what you want to make. If it’s vanilla stuff, maybe 3 days for a 45 minute video on a 3090?

Putin might want it because he’s an idiot, but China would prefer the economic stability.
Realistically only China might come out of this winning.
Keyword “might” because they really screwed themselves over via one child policy.

I have 2 partners but only 2 arms unfortunately. Though I have been able to do half of each before at the same time
- Comment on I have seen a lot of movies where the Catholic School Nuns smack a students hand for being disruptive or something is this a trope or a real something? Like most notable in Blues Brothers 1 week ago:
In El Salvador, the nuns were way more hardcore than just using a ruler.
Once one made my dad kneel on raw rice while holding up books for half an hour.
My mom has to do something similar too but with salt outside in the sun, but for a bit less time.

I did. She “used to be a Lesbian”, but wasn’t able according to her.
Anyhow, she was very cheery and happy living there apparently.

I kinda believe you because I’m designing a bra because of my partners bigger sizes 😅
And I’ll be doing the patent application soon so I also don’t want to say what it is 😂
- Comment on Microsoft May Have Created the Slowest Windows in 25 Years with Windows 11 1 week ago:
Comparing the Linux of 10 years ago with today is like comparing an NES with a Nintendo Switch.
It’s improved drastically, and it’s even used now on a well known consumer product - the Steam Deck.
It’s also gotten to the point is easier to use than Windows. I installed Bazzite for 7 people last year - none tech savvy - and all of them have liked it more than Windows, despite having only used Windows before. 2 of them also had hardware work with it that suddenly stopped working after a Windows update (wired headphones).

They’ve done more than donate. They also rigged some stuff to benefit Hyperland developer specifically from something they didn’t qualify for as well or some such.

I’ve known someone who spoke like that in real life unfortunately. She might have had about the same literacy levels and opinions.
I wish it was 0% but it’s at least 20%.
Why not higher? They couldn’t really use a phone either, and this person somehow does.

Su that’s why they never released 9 - it was too perfect and they wouldn’t make money in the future

Look, I’ve used Cachy. It’s great, pretty polished, looks nice.
But do not recommend an arch distro like that until you know person is more tech inclined.
Because a lot of Windows users are not, and they’re not going to want to open the terminal.
Cachy is best for those who like to more effortlessly tinker with their system, like messing around with Polkit so KDE doesn’t ask for a password every second.
Don’t forget, it’s not about what we’ve always wanted from an OS, but what the other person might want from an OS. When unknown, pick the simpler solutions, like Bazzite, Debian, or Mint.

If reincarnation is real, it’d be real fucked up but unsurprising if Hitler was reincarnated as a Jew as punishment but instead of learning a good lesson he learned from his mistakes he learned how to get away with genocide this time.
- Comment on Music Assistant 2.7 - Taking over the airwaves 4 weeks ago:
In case anyone wants to use something while waiting on some features for this, here’s an alternative set up:
Cheap Ikea ZigBee smart plug and an analog Bluetooth speaker(s) (like the Marshall ones) kept at on with volume set to max (and, if using a music player that supports it on your phone, you can keep bass and treble controls at max as well).
You can then turn on the smart plug, which will turn on the whole set up, connect your phone via Bluetooth, and play the music via a file manager that has a music organizer (if music is on your own server) and control volume levels and an equalizer on an app of your choosing.
At least, that’s how I have things at the moment

- Comment on Trains cancelled over fake bridge collapse image 1 month ago:
I agree it’s not that simple, but it’s just a proposed possible beginning to a solution. We could refine it further and then give the vet refined idea as a charter for a lawyer to them draft up as a proper proposal that could then be present to a relative governmental body to consider.
But few people like to put in that work. Even politicians don’t - that’s why corporations get so much of what they want - they do that and pay people to do that for them.
That said, view count isn’t the same as membership. This solution wouldn’t be perfect.
But it would be better than nothing at all, especially now with the advent of AI turning the firehouse of lies into the tsunami of lies. Currently one side only grows stronger in their opportunity for causing havoc and mischief while the other, quite literally, does nothing and sometimes advocates for doing nothing. You could say it’s a reflection of the tolerance paradox that we’re seeing today.

Rick Rolling the meaning is pranking someone.
Badger Badger Badger it’s the humor of the song and animation, and the unexpectedness of the mushroom, plus some absurdism of course.
Nyan Cat is the closest, in that it’s just absurdist, but also it had a catchy song and was art.
6-7 is pure absurdism. There isn’t a meaning to it, and it’s lack of meaning is the joke. It’s meaningless is so absolute that the brain defaults to base pattern recognition to give it any semblance of meaning.
And I’m not saying that’s bad. I’m just stating that it’s literally a meaningless joke. Some may ascribe it’s rise to prevalence as part of modernized brain rot culture, itself an extremist version of absurdist humor that began to rise in the 80s with Gen X and exploded with millennial, but evolved through very compressed short form content.
To me, I think it’s maybe a prelude to an increase in dark humor again (and indeed we saw a rise for a moment in which 6-7 was given a dark twist with the mixing of SCP fiction with it’s focus on voidness, emphasizing the insanity of the meaninglessness of the meme, but also the emptiness of everything) similar to millennials, since I think Gen Alpha already sees how bad the situation is for their generation even at a young age and will eventually perhaps evolve to a mixture of dark nihilistic violent humor; the meaningless of 6-7 it’s expression of nihilism in a humorous way.
But that’s just a theory. A meme theory.

They weren’t.
6-7 is literally not meant to have meaning. It’s meaning is that it doesn’t have meaning. That’s the joke.

Proton isn’t social media.
If you can’t understand why big = bad in terms of the dissemination of misinformation, then clearly we’re already at an impass on further discussion of possible numbers and usage of statistics and other variables in determining potential regulations.
- Comment on Trains cancelled over fake bridge collapse image 1 month ago:
Just make the law so it only affects things with x-amount of millions of users or x-percent of the population number minimum. You could even have regulation tiers toed to amount of active users, so those over the billion mark are regulated the strictest, like Facebook.
That’ll leave smaller networks, forums, and businesses alone while finally giving some actually needed regulations to the large corporations messing with things.
