  • WinBoat is a new Linux app to run Windows apps with "seamless integration"

    Jump

  • Nope. Haven’t gotten the installer to run. Tried copying over the already installed software too, no dice.

  • The only reason I boot into Windows is to use Substance Painter. It unfortunately requires 3D acceleration.

    Corporation: Literally fuck off and die.

    Also corporation: Why do they hate us? :((((

  • In a first, Google has released data on how much energy an AI prompt uses

    Jump

  • My comment is in the context of this

    Also interesting that we’re ignoring something here – big tech is chasing cheap sources of clean energy. Don’t we want cheap, clean energy?

  • I’m not saying it is. I’m saying that predatory companies shouldn’t run critical infrastructure.

  • This was in 2018. I don't think they even have proceedings anymore...

  • Don’t need to be so extreme. Lumber, saws, nails, and a hammer and you could build an excellent gallows.

  • Well, patents and what have you are a thing. I’m mostly thinking that I wouldn’t want e.g. Facebook to run any nuclear reactors or energy grids. That’s something I prefer the government does.

  • 95% of Companies See ‘Zero Return’ on $30 Billion Generative AI Spend, MIT Report Finds

    Jump

  • Highly recommended. Children of Ruin was hella spooky, and Children of Memory had me crying a lot. Good stories!

  • Sure we do. Do we want the big tech corporations to hold the reins of that though?

  • The Children of Time series by Adrian Tchaikovsky also explores this. Particularly the third book, Children of Memory.

    Think it’s one of my favourite books. It was really good. The things I’d do to be able to experience it for the first time again.

  • Dedicated music server or all-in-one media server?

    Jump

  • When I set up Navidrome I had no idea jellyfin could do music too. Pretty happy with them separate though. Not for any particular reason, they both do their jobs really well.

  • Empty homes are on the rise. So why aren't they being used to solve the housing shortage?

    Jump

  • I like the sound of this.

  • CrowdBucks is a new payment system for the Fediverse

    Jump

  • Ah. My mistake then.

    They are ubiquitous here, even when paying by card it goes through klarna.

  • Klarna is Swedish.

    Nasty company though.

  • Codeberg: army of AI crawlers are extremely slowing us; AI crawlers learned how to solve the Anubis challenges.

  • I wish I was still capable of the same belief in the goodness of others.

  • Given that they already ignore robots.txt I don't think we can assume any sort of good manners on their part. These AI crawlers are like locusts, scouring and eating everything in their path,
