This shit is absolutely atrocious and shows how far we’ve fallen.

Microsoft almost got broken up as a company over simply BUNDLING a browser. Now they’re actively hijacking other installs to put big warnings up and redirecting to theirs. It’s absolutely bonkers this is allowed.

So, I migrated to 5.x and I don’t know if it was just me, or a change in the WebUI or something, but Sonarr stopped wanting to pull files in. I’ve been holding out on the Sonarr upgrade because last I looked at it, it wouldn’t auto-migrate you over, etc.

But when I went to upgrade it - it said that now auto-migrates, and it does. However, the old migrated rules looked kinda dirty, so I was panicking a little. The imported/converted stuff all worked, mind you, I just didn’t like how they looked. In the end, I ended up really really liking the new Sonarr system, though I did have to ask an LLM how to format some new regex.

You should REALLY update…

Are you hard-linking it to somewhere else on the drive via any kind of automation?

For example, Sonarr can hard-link files to the directories they belong in, so that Qbit can continue seeding. If you then delete/remove the torrent/files – then the hard link would still be there.

It’s a play on the joke “There are 3 genders, male, female, and political”

Religion, Politics, Political Genders, and…maybe Football. The real football.

I’ve always screwed them both in very lightly

Yeah. Money. Google has an incentive to make search results less accurate to get you to click around and interact with more ads. As it currently stands, AI models aren’t inserting advertisements; though I suspect that’s only a matter of time.

Because grave robbing is financially motivated for the sake of the individual robbing the grave. They are out to enrich themselves, not others.

Museums obviously do have some financial incentive, but they aren’t just turning around and selling these relics to the highest bidder. They trade with other museums, they share artifacts, for the enrichment of humankind, rather than their own personal enrichment.

The content is not unavailable to search engines. AI LLMs simply are better at surfacing it. I don’t know what point you were trying to make that I missed, it wasn’t on purpose, I assure you.

If someone has put in the work to find and feed the quality content to LLMs, why couldn’t that same effort have been invested in Google Search?

I’d rather a world where 10 companies can compete with google search with AIs, than where they dump money into a monopoly.

Crunchyroll has a monopoly on Anime? Shit, someone better tell Nyaa.

It’s not remotely within the realm of plausibility that Sam Altman genuinely believes any of the horseshit he spews.

Welcome to earth. That’s basically every business ever, and you’ll quite literally never be able to prove that in court; which is the litmus test for this claim.

You’ve got a pretty high bar of proof for proving “actual fraud”…

You can’t provably say that this is a “bubble” as claimed. The tools do what they purport to do. Where’s the fraud?

You might want to look up the definition of reactionary. Because that’s…exactly what it means. To oppose reform/advancements.

You okay there bud?

In political science, a reactionary or a reactionist is a person who holds political views that favor a return to the status quo ante—the previous political state of society—which the person believes possessed positive characteristics that are absent from contemporary society.

Congratulations – Currently you and 18 others are not smarter than an average high schooler.

Honestly, he’s wrong though.

I know tons of full stack developers who use AI to GREATLY speed up their workflow. I’ve used AI image generators to put something I wanted into the concept stage before I paid an artist to do the work with the revisions I wanted that I couldn’t get AI to produce properly.

And first and foremost, they’re a great use in surfacing information that is discussed and available, but might be buried with no SEO behind it to surface it. They are terrible at deducing things themselves, because they can’t ‘think’, or coming up with solutions that others haven’t already - but so long as people are aware of those limitations, then they’re a pretty good tool to have.

It’s a reactionary opinion when people jump to the ‘but they’re stealing art!’ – isn’t your brain also stealing art when it’s inspired by others art? Artists don’t just POOF, and have the capability to be artists. They learn slowly over time, using others as inspiration or as training to improve. That’s all stable diffusors do - just a lot faster.

I collect these into a database I run locally out of a bad habit I had as a teenager. Back in the AOL days you could ‘Email-bomb’ someone, and rightfully it sounds exactly like it is – you’d just send them tons and tons and tons of email.

Well, turns out - that’s pretty easy to detect and block. So I came up with a better way, a more permanent way; and probably the reason so many people see their email address as a private/privacy thing now – You simply submit their email address to every known spam address in existence.

Now, you’ve got an infinite amount of spam being thrown their way, 24/7, at super high volumes, for essentially - what is the entire lifetime of that account. I haven’t done it in the past 20 years or so, and I don’t have any of my old ‘progz’ for it, but I figure one day when I need it again, it will be invaluable.

I had my comment removed because the mods of world news, don’t like me pointing out that this is literally the same as Russia and China meddling in US affairs.

Those are some nice legs…

I mean, the mermaid is missing the part I like the most…
