Taking a break from reality to watch high-speed film launches of the Space Shuttle.
Stepping back in time to a world when NASA was sending humans into space using a lot less computing power than your new TV.
It's a very calming video, watching thousands of pounds of fuel ignited as the shuttle and it's boosters slowly rise into the sky. 45mins of rockets on fire.
@jpellis2008 I believe so, although I don't know how many NLS affiliates have them to distribute. I'm personally not interested in getting one and so I haven't done any inquiries or investigations as to how readily available they are. I'm sure others out here know way more about this than I do.
"Only humans can do this because we're special" and other lies we tell ourselves
With a large enough dataset and a well trained model, all we need is compute and ridiculous amount of tokens and yes, it will be able to create and maintain subtext through a novel-length story. RT: wandering.shop/users/JulietEMc…
Bringing this from writer Joseph Malik over from Bluesky. I think it's spot on.
"Subtext separates a novel from a novel-length story. Subtext is the part that AI can't--and never will--generate. It can't read for subtext.
I think there is a clear cross section of people who believe AI cannot produce things that human brains can produce as well as the idea that animals do not have the capacity to think
The human mind is not unique. We operate on data and patterns and stimuli. We can feed an AI model stimuli too, and it will generate output based on its dataset and learned patterns.
What *is* unique is our emotions. But they can be simulated. They can also be faked by people without them (psychopaths), or those who are not actually experiencing them organically (acting)
Meanwhile, I want AI to do stuff I DON'T want (humans) to do. Common house chores? Yes please. Dangerous jobs, like mining deep underground? Yes please. Dumb and repetitive tasks, like factory conveyor belts? Yes please. Tasks that require incredible precision, like brain surgery? Yes please.
Let humans do the wondering, the exploring, the art. Let us tell the stories, the culture, like we have done for hundreds of thousands of years.
@collectifission I agree, but obviously generating artistic works is cheap and easy in comparison whereas solving the other tasks requires interaction with the physical world and other humans which is risky. Physical harm to a human or property carries a lot of liability, so unless they are shielded from it there's not a lot of incentive to invest in this area.
Sigh. It's possible to remotely, physically locate any O2 mobile customer at any time over the internet with a trivial method using their mobile phone number, due to O2's poor implementation of 4G Calling which, by design, gives away the Cell ID.
After Debian archive was updated to 12.11, the Debian CD team did the hard work of preparing and testing our installation medias to ensure everything worked properly. Their work is now complete and the images are available at debian.org/distrib/ #debian #bookworm
How do you explain the release with a known defective kernel ? How is it it was not postponed ? I thought #Debian was all about stability, and not about "yadayada we told that date, we launch that date, bug or not"... ?
tieto párky? ahh to vám musím povedať tiež, kupujem si raňajky do práce a celkom nabitý týpek si ich kupuje, si hovorím tieto som ešte nevidel. naposledy nakupujem v potravinách #za_rohom a helemese, neviem uvidíme

"Privacy watchdog Noyb sent a cease-and-desist letter to Meta Wednesday, threatening to pursue a potentially billion-dollar class action to block Meta's AI training, which starts soon in the European Union."
OK, I admit I am still skeptical. And probably will be until I get to attend one of these shows myself. Do you really believe the choirs in this video are not edited or somehow enhanced post-production? youtube.com/watch?v=RpCNaICb1F…
Over the past few years Jacob Collier has been experimenting with what he calls the 'Audience Choir', where he uses his audiences like an instrument, conduct...
Všem, co tvoří videa pro #VHSky bych chtěl poděkovat. Obzvlášť těm, co nahrávají pravidelně.
Já vim lidi, že nemáte tisíce shlédnutí, jako na #YouTube, nikdo vám nikdy za nic nezaplatí (naopak část vás spíš platí, aby nějaký VHSky byly :)) a je nás tam málo, ale když se podíváte, tak dneska už to neni poloprázdná stránka s ničím.
Jsou tam recepty, zvířátka, IT věci, přednášky i filmy a to všechno jen díky vám všem.
Teď bych ale měl žádost/prosbičku/apel na vás. Chtěl bych, aby tenhle post měl co nejvíc přesdílení a komentářů, aby o projektu vědělo co nejvíc lidí a třeba někoho dalšího napadne, že to jeho háčkování, 3Dtisky, výlety, politalky nebo třeba jiný varianty broukpytlingu můžou bejt pro někoho zajímavý a natočí je. Nebo někdo, kdo o VHSkách ještě neví začne pravidelně sledovat :)
Zároveň chci požádat o diskuzi o tom, co vám tam chybí, přebývá nebo co by šlo vylepšit. Chtěl bych vědět, proč tam jste (anebo ještě nejste :) ) a jestli třeba neznáte nějaký zajímavý účty, co ještě nemirrorujem.
Pojďme si ten náš #PeerTube doladit tak, aby si každej něco našel.
@vol4life8657 @HarmonicaPlayer Well, I was able to dl the whole playlist. I love it when people number their tracks when putting together a playlist on YouTube. Wish more people would do that.
@vol4life8657 @tinygirl @HarmonicaPlayer Darrell, thank you for recording these tutorials. I just posted the link on the Tech-VI list and will also post it to my LinkedIn feed.
Hi everyone, Jessica from Be My Eyes here. As a part of global accessibility awareness day, we put out a new update for the Be My Eyes app for Windows that is completely rebuild from the ground up.
America's largest remaining antebellum plantation, Nottoway Plantation in Iberville Parish, Louisiana, has burned to the ground. The cause is still under investigation but Parish President Chris Daigle says the building is "a total loss." In recent years, the plantation had been rebranded as Nottoway Resort, a luxury hotel described on its website as "restored to her days of glory." Sharing a video of the burning building on Facebook, a local man named Brad Gordon wrote: "If you don't understand why Black Americans are celebrating the symbolic dismantling of this monument to bondage and generational oppression — well, today, we simply don't care." Here's more from @AxiosNews.
