I have it working on Debian, it wasn’t THAT hard, but I never got it to work with the GPU so it was SUPER slow. I’ve since found XTTS2 which set up super easy, comes with a web GUI and just supports my GPU out of the box.

I do remember some posts on r/sex back in the day that were absolutely kids (teens) and you could tell by how

• Freaked out they were about totally normal stuff.
• Excited they were about how great sex is.

I remember there was a funny day when there were two top upvoted posts on r/sex (probably in like 2017) where one was like

• It turns me on when my boyfriend masturbates to me, am I normal?

And the other one was like

• I (female bodied, they/them / nb) am a furry and my wife and I like to pretend that I’m a wolf and I’m hunting and eating her. What can we make that will look and feel like real organs I can “rip” out of her stomach and eat, and what could we use for fake blood that would be the easiest to clean up?

People kept linking the second one in the first one and reassuring this poor girl that she’s totally normal.

Honestly, sometimes when I can’t sleep, watching eSports helps (especially Starcraft II). IDK why, but put on a super chill caster like Wardii and I’m out in 20 minutes.

Having some loud, disruptive ad punch through my ad blocker and try to tell me about Liberty Mutual when I’ve almost dozed off is close to the most rage inducing experience imaginable. With Youtube now working to inject adds directly into video streams, I’m actually anxious about the future of my best sleep aid.

Yes, but nothing real came of them. The US government has a long and well recorded history of spending money on pseudoscience, even well after it’s been debunked, as long as there are True Believers in the chain of command.

And the conspiracy theory community has a long and even more dramatic history of taking those mole hills and turning them into mountains (especially if grifters can sell books and / or T-shirts and / or weird copper sculptures that are supposed to “protect” you from it).

Look, I grew up with parents (and a wide community) who believed in psychic shit, crystal healing, telepathy, getting messages from the Akoshic record, what evs. It’s NOT real and also believing it is NOT harmless. You’re gonna find PLENTY of misinformation about what people “believe” but if you look into any of it, you’re going to discover that somewhere along the line someone channeled something or someone like David Icke or Garahm Hancock or Rudolph Steiner or Drunvalo Melchizedek or Raël is involved, or someone is selling tickets to their lecture or psychic seminar.

Honestly, only if this is a roleplay community. We’re getting into the realms of crackpots and conspiracy theories here.

That sounds like pseudoscience to me.

On the other hand, there have been rather dramatic advances in brain / computer interfaces and using machine learning to interpret electrical signals from the human brain. The good news there is that every brain is different, the machines need to learn each brain individually (a model trained to pull dream images out of my brain will pull just gibberish out of yours).

So far, the researchers would need your close cooperation in order to train a machine to understand even a little bit of what’s going on in your mind. This tech is nowhere near being used for interrogation.

TIL, Trump is just autocomplete.

I know many of the people here already know this, but how do we get this message to journalists?!

Journalists have this information, but articles about it probably generate 10% of the clicks, shares and eyeballs->ad revenue that either the hype or the scaremongering does.

As a PHP developer, I’m in full support and look forward to contributing to what will be a vastly simpler and easier to use Linux kernel.

A lot of senior people have fucked off from corporate life to consult and do their own thing and companies have laid off more expensive senior developers with decades of experience in favor of the young and talented and of cheap H1Bs. This is the result.

Above and beyond what the other poster said, they’re a propaganda outlet for the management class… they love to (for example) boost studies that say Work From Home is bad and inefficient and “debunk” studies that say it’s more efficient or has other benefits (with headlines like “The data is in folks, it’s time to go back to the office!”).

And if you need more evidence of who they really are, they’re owned by Axel Springer.

Came here to say this.

Business Insider? Really?

I have my Boomer dad using Linux Mint on his laptop, but he was still using Windows on his desktop PC.

Then it updated to Windows 11 and he HATES it and asked me for help to put Linux Mint on his desktop as well.

This is a real estate agent in his 70s who needs help making scans and downloading email attachments.

The taco sauce I make when I make tacos at home. It’s mostly pepper sauce, balsamic vinegar and butter with a bunch of spices (and lots of garlic).

Start an Opensource Software Project. Soon you will have two full time jobs.

Someone should really make a !gnu+linux community in the vein of r/linuxcirclejerk

I just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as butthole is in fact GNU/butthole, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU+butthole.
