Nice

Bruh .ml censores the urls too

This is exactly why I just could not get into mastodon, and probably Twitter-likes in general

There’s no way, atleast at the time, to sort by top of the day. No way to see what was trending across the larger fediverse, no real way to find new and interesting things every hour on the hour

Lemmy is thankfully significantly better with this, and it’s honestly become my go-to social app now

It appears to be a TypeError

The embed on my client only gave me the middle 2 panels for context and honestly still funny

Honestly “Triplet Towers” rolls nicely off the tongue

Nah they use “an open standard” being just markdown files or something, but the apps are still proprietary as far as I’m aware

I really hate how I sometimes, though rarely, see Obsidian talked about as if it were open source just because it uses an open standard

Like Photoshop isn’t open source because it can use PNG kinda thing

“I am inside of a Generative AI algorithm”

I can see the utility, but there should be at least some critical operability in case the phone or app doesn’t work for whatever reason, to help avoid injuries like these

Mad respect, this is the exact same outlook I have

This is also a reason I use Open Source software, because I know that if it’s not the developer, then someone else can pick up the project and live on in perpetuity, as long as it’s useful to even only one, the software will always be there

IMO I’d call “AI Artists” a type of Art Director, since they themselves don’t make the art but instead direct and dictate what exactly they want, and if the result is different they tweak their wording to direct the art into a different direction

Art Directing, whether for a human or a machine or otherwise, is still a skill itself and still has to be learned to get good results, but it’s distinctly different from making the art yourself so I wouldn’t call them “Artists” outright

Except the ones who are dead

Yeah, that’s what I’m getting at, proprietary software on Linux is just a step forward towards a fully FOSS future

For the most part, there aren’t many professional fields that have a good FOSS option, so in the meantime their only option is to keep using the industry standard until a good alternative matures like Blender has

At the very least, people would have the freedom to not use microsoft or apple while still working professionally in their respective industry, so that’s more free overall

Why not both? I don’t see how proprietary software on Linux will slow down FOSS at all, and it’ll only bring more users to Linux who otherwise have to use windows for their software, so overall more FOSS users in the community

And programs like Blender have already matured to a professional level, so I’m pretty optimistic that other FOSS apps will eventually follow, too

Yup
