I imagine if such a candidate won, the would forfeit their win by not attending the inauguration and not getting sworn in.

And how does that handle a candidate who is in prison, and how is it different?

Remember, remember, the 5th of November

Usually uprooting your life and moving to another country implies a job change. At least that’s how I read the comment.

It can be (linen.dev is one such solution). But the server owners have to set it up obviously, and often they don’t. But it’s not an issue if they cared to.

Since it’s end to end encrypted, Ente just sees some raw bytes, it has no way to tell if what you uploaded is an image or not. So in practice it supports whatever the client can display, so your browser for the web version.

For example I might store blobs of data processed by my database in files that have the Base64 ID of the blob as the filename. If the filesystem was case insensitive, I’d be getting collisions.

Users probably don’t make such files, no. But 99% of files on a computer weren’t created by the user, but are part of some software, where it may matter.

And often software originally written for Linux or macOS and then ported to Windows ends up having problems due to this.

It’s not like getting Ublock Origin from the official website instead of the Chrome Web Store is some kind of a problem.

Ok, well “broken” sounded like, you know, that things don’t work.

They didn’t:

• Android 12: Snow Cone
• Android 13: Tiramisu
• Android 14: Upside Down Cake
• Android 15: Vanilla Ice Cream

They stopped using the codenames in marketing, but they are still there.

What’s broken about it? I use Kubuntu and everything is working fine.

What’s the reason humans need a horn installed in their car? Whatever it is, it’s the same reason for self-driving cars I guess.

According to the article police opened fire at the car because she refused to stop when they tried to pull the car over. Which is just as unacceptable (to my European mind it’s ridiculous police carry firearms), but contrary to the title there is no indication what she was wearing had anything to do with it. In fact the article says her windows were tinted so the police couldn’t know what she was wearing.

It really depends on which language you want to use.

I don’t think what he deserves would be worth any consideration. Movies are made to make money. To keep with my example, the “wolf” was a criminal and a personification of the “evil Wall Street banker” scamming people out of their savings. Yet nobody is saying he didn’t deserve to be played by a DiCaprio, everyone understands a movie is a movie.

All biographic movies have actors that are more handsome than the real person. The real “Wolf of Wall Street” is nowhere similar to Leonardo DiCaprio.

It’s a tool in a box. Maybe an artist can use it get some inspiration and not actually use any of the generated images. Or generate a backdrop for their portrait drawing. Or generate a composition they like and then draw over it.

Wut? Are you serious? You’re just going to boil down an entire artform to that? That’s an unbelievably reductive opinion.

That’s kind of the point, isn’t it? People might spend a lot of time learning the different AI tools, how to supplement them with post processing and manual edits, how to combine them and how to nudge them in the direction they want, and then spend countless evenings trying to get the result they want. And people are going to say “they just AI generated it, they are not artists”, just like people might say photographers are not artists, they just take a photo.

But we know it’s far from “just” taking a photo or “just” generating it with AI. Sure, you can “just” do both, but the result will be far from real art without all the preparation and extra work.

But it’s easy to take a random shitty AI image to laught at, just like it’s easy to take a random shitty photo.

I guess he can ignore a court summons, but then he can never enter the UK again, which he might want to do at some point.

I like Vivaldi and they are going to keep V2 support for a while. I will switch to Firefox when it’s gone, but for the time being I am happy they are keeping the support.
