is there any way of blocking links to certain sites in Lemmy?

My parents love JFK Jr and Diana. Idk the former’s reasoning but it really is true that we love royalty

jfc The Boys was an actual documentary.

everything with this admin is just to boost artificial scarcity… even with IP routers

Those focusing on medical intervention are missing the point. Like 90% of contributions to lifespans have been from public health, which focuses primarily on primary and (secondary) treatments. Americans as a society are just not healthy, nor are enabled to be healthy.

can we stop linking to lunduke (he’s a transphobe chud)

… you know they have cameras?

Yeah. I had a locker next to the school’s music room in the farthest corner once. Fun year.

Comparing learning methods and then associating their benefits with the technology feels… fallacious.

For this reason I actually recommend a cheap Android tablet for digital note taking since it is well worth the price. I used to carry paper with me, but having the ability to quickly review notes across several classes (lectures and books) is a game changer. Need to know what was discussed last week? What you took on a topic? It’s very cumbersome with paper.

I feel like ‘technology’ is different when you actually own the tech you’re given. When you can do things with it. Not when it’s a digital casino in your pocket controlled by big corporations.

They’re competing for government contracts and tax payer money, right?

I’m glad people are now speaking about alternatives. The collective ignorance was so unbearable before now.

I was under the impression that Google just didn’t delete data — ever. Like, it’s way more valuable compared to the cost of the disk.

which opinions?

holy fucking shit… every day I get older the more I agree with Stallman on most everything

Since there’s 78 pages, I’m guessing at least 1 ambiguity per page? Anyways, it’s dreadfully big.

I tried to leave a comment, but it doesn’t seem to be showing up there.

I’ll just leave it here:

too tired to look into this, one suggestion though - since the hangup seems to be comparing an L and a 1, maybe you need to get into per-pixel measurements. This might be necessary if the effectiveness of ML or OCR models isn’t at least 99.5% for a document containing thousands of ambiguous L’s. Any inaccuracies from an ML or OCR model will leave you guessing 2^N candidates which becomes infeasible quickly. Maybe reverse engineering the font rendering by creating an exact replica of the source image? I trust some talented hacker will nail this in no time.

i also support the idea to check for pdf errors using a stream decoder.

my direct supervisor has showed me what information he has access to w.r.t. wireless client information, such as client position.

My first thought would be how that is even possible, but given the fact that we record the location of each AP install, this makes a lot more sense.

I wouldn’t call myself an “avid” user but I have been using it for about 6 years.

My pain points would be the current driver support on new laptops. Nothing they can do but it’s always been a pain in the ass to encounter some broken ACPI kernel implementation that for example doesn’t call a required Microsoft Modern Standby extension or fails to bring a computer out of suspend.

My other issue isn’t really an issue, but installers need to have you enter all information and then just walk away. None of “do you want to participate in the package survey” after a super lengthy download. Debian is the worst of these offenders and I can’t believe no one on their team has ever tried to fix it in the years it has been around.

it’s hurting profits!

I use Siri for:

• getting the time
• setting an alarm
• reading a notification
• telling someone I’ll be late
• skipping a song
• ending a route, or creating a new one on the fly

None of those need AI.
