That's the problem. Change the timeline, and the daleks are back. So it can never be 'forever.' I chuckled internally when I saw the name of this article.
I'm re-reading the paper that got @timnitGebru fired from Google and I'm realising now how they foreseen every problem related to LLM we're facing now. It's always good to re-read good papers (and depressing sometimes)

@liseo It kind of did in the United States, not counting the tons of audio theater made for podcasts and, of course, not counting drama from overseas from the BBC.
@liseo Oh, I agree. Modern audio theater made for the Internet is positively vibrant. It was drama made for FM and AM radio in the U.S. which is a rare breed.
@liseo I do, as well, but my primary interest is science fiction drama. I have the usual suspects like X Minus One and Dimension X, as well as lots of drama from the BBC. If you have any unusual or rare SF drama, I'd love to know about it.
That was fast. TikTok is 'in the process of restoring service' after Trump said app stores and other providers won't be penalized for hosting the app. It's still not available in the app stores, though.

I have just read a most gloriously kink-informed science fiction short story. I am in awe of the author's powers of #kink negotiation. I think it might be the first time I've come across a story in this format, too.
Thread: I've been having a crap week, feeling sick all over the place, didn't play any music all of yesterday but today I sat down at the keys and wrote this weird little thing in 7/8, no drums, no tempo even. Fed it to #Suno for some ideas, and boy did I get some ideas! Just had to share some of them here. This is the original, and it's bad playing central. Luckily, Suno makes up for it. To me this is where AI can truly shine. Not just a random prompt and hit up a random word generator, but feeding it some ideas as a basis and letting it rip. 1/
Alright, now this has the most beautiful time-signature and I still haven't quite worked out what it is but I'm totally here for it. Probably my favourite generation of the lot. I got 8 in total, but this is the last one I'll share. I want to meet the drummer that can pull this off, and yes I know there are some of those out there for certain. #Suno
Wow, that is super complicated but beautiful. As a time signature nerd, I need to slow it down to figure out what's going on there. Did you manage to get it though finally?

Developers, please be careful when installing Homebrew. Google is serving sponsored links to a Homebrew site clone that has a cURL command to malware. The URL for this site is one letter different than the official site.
Note: Google allows the ad sponsors to specify an URL that will be displayed on the ad (original brew.sh here), but the click takes you to the malware domain brewe.sh.

The Colibrio Reader is an implementation of the Colibrio Reader Framework, the most advanced development framework for building digital reading systems.
The only detail I see is that it is not available in my native language, which is Spanish. Let's hope they implement it soon. Likewise, if you have a way to contact the developer, I would like you to tell vhim that I would like to help translate into my language.
Found this Windows virtual display driver which basically acts like the software equivalent of a dummy plug. This solves a very specific problem for me: If I close my laptop lid and try to take screenshots or share my screen, they show up in 480p because Windows apparently defaults to that when no display is connected. This also makes websites render in their mobile layout unless I zoom the page in. The driver goes all the way up to 4k resolution and can actually emulate multiple monitors if you need that for some reason, but I found 4k lagged my poor five-year-old laptop noticeably, so I'm using 1080p now. This also would have been really useful in the days when screen readers didn't have screen curtain, but now they do. When looking through the assets, make sure you download the setup instead of the driver, unless you want to manually configure it. github.com/VirtualDisplay/Virt…

Hallo Zusammen, weiß jemand von Euch was mit dem Friendica Server auf anonsys.net los ist? Ich kann die Seite nicht mehr aufrufen, bekomme nur noch einen 404er Fehler.
Leider weiß ich nicht wie ich @Tuxi ⁂ der den Server betreibt erreichen kann, deshalb frage ich einfach mal in die Runde.
am kommenden Sonntag (19.01.) wird es eine längere Downtime wegen der Migration auf einen neuen Server geben. Wenn notwendig, werde ich über mein Backup-Account tuxi_backup@friendica.opensocial.space Statusmeldungen veröffentlichen."
@Matthias Nein leider nicht. Heute Nacht ist der Import der DB mit einem Fehler abgebrochen. Es wird einen neuen Termin geben, wenn ich weiß, was los war.
TikTok shut itself down as part of a pro-Trump propaganda campaign.
The likelihood of a quid-pro-quo with Trump is extremely high. Using TikTok will mean being propagandized with pro-Trump messages over the next four years.
