Is “replacing the sole” still a thing we can do with some boots? I keep replacing my boots because the sole is worn down, but the rest of the boot is still good, and I’d love to have the option of just replacing the sole. Are there companies that make boots where this is possible? Or do I need to find some local shoemaker?

If I was less lazy I’d make an opposite picture where the cleavage is blasting men’s eyes with a laser.

At first I was angry when I read this (because I’m sick of loss), but then I thought it’s oddly fitting.

It’s so dumb. I’m obviously going to keep using non-proprietary headphones. Even if I have to buy a whole docking station with an aux jack.

Don’t care. Want ports.

They’re emotionally parallel.
But now my OCD is triggered, thanks.

I know now manufacturers would love to just sell you a dongle add-on or two that plugs into your USB-C port and has all of the other useful ports on it you actually need
I had to get one of these for my previous work laptop.
- Comment on Parallel Empires 4 weeks ago:
I still use my T420 because of the nice keyboard. Something like that plus usb-c would be amazing.

People still know what LLMs are, and they know that it’s a subset of AI. If the internet is swamped with bots actively trying to set linguistic habits for marketing reasons, you’re not required to perpetuate and validate that.
Shills and goons are trying to make “AI” refer to LLMs specifically. It’s an ad campaign. You’re not getting paid to perpetuate this stupidity.

That’s enchanterelling.
- Comment on Lemmy be like 4 weeks ago:
AI remains a broader field of study, an active field of study which tons of people are invested in, and they use AI to refer to the broader field of study in which they’re professionally invested.
I’m just describing how language works.
No you’re not. And you’re not as smart as you think you are.
If everyone says a word means a thing
It’s not literally everybody, and you know it, and you also know that LLMs are not the entire actual category of AI.
- Comment on Lemmy be like 4 weeks ago:
So are you saying that a slur (for Black people, for example) is linguistically “correct by definition” ? And it actually describes members of the demographic?
- Comment on Lemmy be like 4 weeks ago:
This hype cycle is insane, and the gross psychology of the hype obscures the real usefulness of LLMs.
- Comment on Lemmy be like 4 weeks ago:
If people use [slur] to refer to [demographic] that does not make it correct by definition.
- Comment on Lemmy be like 4 weeks ago:
Not really, since “AI” is a pre-existing and MUCH more general term which has been intentionally commandeered by bad actors to mean a particular type of AI.
AI remains a broader field of study.
- Comment on Lemmy be like 4 weeks ago:
An AI could be demonstrably 30 times more accurate than a human in diagnosing a cancer on a scan Lemmy would still shit on it because it’s an IA
I think this is an exaggeration.
- Comment on Lemmy be like 4 weeks ago:
The LLM shills have made “AI” refer exclusively to LLMs. Honestly the best ad campaign ever.
- Comment on Lemmy be like 4 weeks ago:
It’s a response to the overwhelming FOMO “ngmi” shilling on every other platform.
