My gaming PC has 9

To be honest I’d feel stupid saying that alout at anyone. They’re not called that in my native language - I think.

Both spoons are the same size. Different size ones wouldn’t fit together like that.

It only sounds bad to the fringest of the fringe that’s deceivingly loud on twitter. Good luck trying to find even one real person thinking those terms should be changed. This kind of stuff is why people vote for Trump.

By using Lemmy we’re already filtering out certain people and opinions. I personally think that the more control we have over what we see, the better. I don’t think it’s opposing views people want to filter out. It’s the ones having those views and being dicks about it.

Unavoidably so but then again, going sideways because of a downvote is just more data on who you might want to block.

Echo chamber within echo chamber I guess.

It’s not the people whose opinions I disagree with who I usually block. It’s people making snide comments like this while fishing for upvotes. I’ll reserve my attention to the ones who have something to say rather than ones just wanting to make noise.

If this mean we’d be able to see who has up- / downvoted a comment on our own and possibly on other people’s posts then I’m all for it. This would be highly useful at filtering out the people here I want nothing to do with.

AI will be only be able to produce art that already exists or realism.

Well, that is not true at all.

Generative AI isn’t just limited to imitating or copying existing art. It’s fully capable of creating original pieces, much like humans do. Sure, AI models learn from large datasets of existing art, but that doesn’t mean they’re limited to mere copying. Instead, they take these inputs, find patterns, blend concepts, and can then generate something entirely new. This isn’t too different from how human artists operate. They too absorb influences from the world and other pieces of art and generate new ones based on that. Nobody is creating art in a vacuum.

The additional benefit AI has is not being tied down by existing concepts. Human creativity often gets shaped by cultural trends or personal experiences, but AI can step outside those constraints, giving us a fresh take on art and creativity in ways that many human artists can’t. Not to even mention that you need a human in the loop to write the prompt. AI doesn’t create art alone no more than a paint brush does.

I use browser for no ads. Applies to many others too. I avoid downloading apps as far as possible.

I stopped using it after it switched owner anyway

The way I think about it is that we’re all “snowflakes”. No two people are exactly the same. So while one can correctly claim to be unique that also applies to everyone else. It’s not like everyone else is the same but you’re unique. Also, being unique doesn’t automatically mean someone is better than others - one can also be uniquely bad.

I haven’t claimed it doesn’t imply fragility too. Just that the uniqueness is the primary meaning of it - thus the term snowflake. “I’m unique and thus deserving of special treatment”

If it was primarily about fragility then we’d probably be using some other term as that is not generally the first feature that comes to mind about snowflakes.

Wikipedia and most dictionary definitions talk about uniqueness. Each snowflake is unique. That’s what most people mean by it.

Snowflake is a derogatory slang term for a person, implying that they have an inflated sense of uniqueness, an unwarranted sense of entitlement, or are overly emotional, easily offended, and unable to deal with opposing opinions.

You are not special. You are not beautiful or unique snowflake. Quote from the novel “Fight Club”

It doesn’t. It implies that being unique is a bad thing.

But how do we hate-follow Elon then? We need our daily dose of outrage after all.

Are you sure? Last time I checked it just gives you a pop-up asking if you’re sure you want to use that word as some people can find it problematic and if you say yes it’ll get posted like a normal tweet.

Well I said black twitter because I’m talking about the Voldemort slur I’m not even allowed to say aloud

To my knowledge, twitter doesn’t block anyone from using slurs to begin with. I’m sure you can find plenty used on daily basis on “black twitter” for example.

That being said I’m going to need a more credible source than a random screenshot

What’s minor in this case? The fact that it’s not specified makes me think we’re speaking of a 17 year old.
