Would much rather have Gracie be the mascot on the mega thread and such if for no other reason this is clearly a labor of love from a like-minded artist rather than cheap AI work. Amazing design!!

Thanks for the detailed response will look into it!

Will look into it thanks!

I have a TCL running Google TV that I use Flauncher on - a nice little FOSS lightweight launcher that I like a lot. However, I am only able to switch inputs (for gaming etc.) when using the default launcher. Anyone found a way around this? Pretty sure its a Google/TCL hardware thing and not due to any alt launcher just not wanting to include that

Right now I feel like its more that it’s a hypothetical, while the resource extraction of the AI hype is very real.

AGI itself won’t end us, but the land, water and energy needs of the massive data centers needed to scale up the computation needed for AI development sure are gonna try

More than Twitter. Less than Mastodon. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Its 2030. your state of the art AR glasses have a bug. mr. mime is lurking behind every corner… always watching

Good news, but does someone more knowleagable of these things know the likelihood of a Trump DOJ derailing this? I am hopefully as the original case was brought in 2017 under Trump, and his relationship with Big Tech is at best strained, but I truly don’t know what to expect moving forward.

Sigh I hope LLMs get dropped from the AI bandwagon because I do think they have some really cool use cases and love just running my little local models. Cut government spending like a madman, write the next great American novel, or eliminate actual jobs are not those use cases.

Look I’ve bopped around bsky and do enjoy it. Wish Mastodon had picked up the eXodus but bsky isn’t the worst alternative.

Really hoping we get past the point where day old accounts are saying “bluesky is such a BREATH of FRESH AIR”. I would think so too though if I was breathing whatever is coming out of of Twitter up until now…
