1·7 days agoThe training does and using it does as well if everybody does it all day everyday. Things add up.
No. It’s one of the many, many problems, even if it wasn’t shovelling money into rich wide dude’s mouths and trained on stolen data, it would still use absurd amounts of energy, could be used for propaganda / further eradicate what is true, make creative people loose their jobs, make normal people rely on machines that sell hallucinations for facts etc. etc. This shit is mostly terrible.
Oh hey, reality being even worse than Black Mirror again 😿
So what are you using on the desktop and how long have you been using it? I’ve switched to Linux / open source software a year ago and especially learning programs (design / media tools in my case) was super painful for some time. But I had the motivation of not wanting to use an OS that tries to spy on me and getting away from a super shady monopolist (Adobe) as a motivator that kept me going. Sure there are still some things that get on my nerves but those exist in Microsoft’s (and Apple’s) and Adobe’s products as well.
I guess you have checked out Krita? I like it a lot.
Ooops, yes, sorry, Eevee is Blender’s real time renderer (like a game engine) that fakes fakes a lot of stuff while Cycles is the classic “physics-based” renderer. I heard that it took under a minute to Render a frame which is absurd for movie quality. But it makes sense since the look is kinda stylized (only noticed in the cinema that characters are kinda cell shaded) but it still looks so good, the lightning, fog, water, bloom, dephth of field, wow. Was really worth it watching on the big screen. Story is a bit weird but loved the characters and their interactions.
3·15 days agoHaha, whoops, I’ve been using Futo Keyboard for month, (it’s amazing!) not realizing that it’s sponsored by the same company that also gives money to Immich, nice!
Now this one I can get behind!
Just saw Flow at the cinema, I can’t believe they rendered this all in Eeevee, wth!
Yeah, agree.
OP: Would you be able to mark that image as sensitive / nsfw or whatever it’s called on Lemmy?
Yeah, I think it depends on how the distro decides to implement it, can’t remember now but I think e. g. in Fedora KDE you need to tick a box somewhere in Discover’s (KDE’s updater) settings (and then it’s Fedora’s own Flatpak repo?). In Bazzite which I’m using atm it’s Flatpaks all the way down anyway 😸
It’s also quite nice in KDE that you can do Flatpak permissions etc in System Settings.
2·19 days agohttps://cartes.app/ is a new kid on the block to replaces Gmaps, looks very cool bit is also very alpha atm. But I’ll keep checking it, it has some very cool features already (French only atm which I don’t speak at all but it’s still super usable.)
I’m pretty sure Osmand centers the map in North Is Up mode but I’m not 100% certain.
Interesting, I’ve had the exact opposite problem with Osmand last summer: Could not get it to use POV mode (not smart enough to navigate otherwise when cycling), it was always stuck on North Is Up (there’s a button to change that on the upper left corner which they now changed to click and hold so I have my hopes up that it’ll work now).
Because fusion is a scam.
Don’t try to understand fascists, you have to give up logic to be one.
