They were also able to have that episode in which gravity was broken. No CGI, jut draw.
I love it. But I keep it to myself because star trek online forums are pretty aggressive when you say you like it.
We are doing all the AI thing wrong. We were supposed to be replacing hard repetitive manual work with technology. Not replace the art creation.

"Technology, you were the Chosen One! It was said that you would destroy the need for work, not join them! Let us focus on culture and enlightment, not leave us with the hard manual work!"
Don't worry, this is only a problem until they can fully generate actors from scratch. It's just a matter of time.
If you are craving chocolate, you are probably craving magnesium. Unless you are really looking for an excuse to eat chocolate (not going to judge you), you can try to eat something else magnesium rich (or even a magnesium supplement) and that should do the trick.
Curious take by Oracle after its very recent campaign trying to push out their Java competitors by saying Java 21 is not going to be LTS so you can't trust it. Well, maybe not your Java 21, Mister Oracle. Talk for yourself. Not very FOSS-like attitude.
Yes but actually not. Federated, yes. Everyone contributing, yes. Paid for access... that's a path I prefer not to walk into. Payment should be voluntary.
I am gladly paying for my mastodon account and I will gladly pay for my kbin account when/if recurrent payments are possible. But I understand I am a privileged one. 20€ a year for me is easy at this point of my life. But not everyone earns money. Not everyone lives in a country where 20€ a year is small change. 10 years ago I wouldn't have been able to pay that easily.
A world in which we federate and each of us contribute and pay, if we can, the amount we can, that makes sense to me.
A world in which you can't access the good parts of the internet unless you pay for it, that's scary to me.
I haven't tried it yet, but is the fediverse indexable?
Yes, it is. At least mastodon allows you to select on the profile if you want to appear on search engines or not. So I understand the rest can implement the same thing.
I definitely moved to DuckDuckGo the moment I realized Google was ignoring the text I was writing on the search box. I was searching for a bug fix in my code for weeks, something very niche and difficult to find. When I finally got the answer and moved on to the following bug, Google kept mixing my previous bug with the new one, making it impossible to find the right answer. It got so used to me being focused on that niche thing, it couldn't believe I moved past it.
DuckDuckGo forced me to write "smart queries" again, giving context on the search text. But it gave me the results I needed. Not the ones Google googlexplained me I needed.
If our hope is on ChatGPT and its friends, we are doomed.
In a couple of years there will be entire webpages automatically generated with content no human has reviewed. Not even read. And they will be so optimized for SEO, they will be the first results on most search engines.
And the content of those webpages will be crappy. Elegantly written, yes, perfect English. No grammatical errors. But it will tell you the recipe of gazpacho is done with hot spicy tomato sauce and that the acne you have can be cured by sleeping naked under the moon the second Thursday of the month.
I already miss the human-generated internet and we are still here!
I was here before the federation broke and was able to interact with the rest of the fediverse. Please, be patient, it will come back :)
From experience escalating other projects, he's probably at the stage where the urgent (the site collapsing) is done before the important (delegating tasks). If he stops to delegate tasks, the normal functioning of the site will collapse.
Anyone who wants to volunteer and don't know where to start can start by going to the currently opened PR and reviewing them, testing them, improving them. Of course @ernest will have to review them afterwards. But if three independent developers say they already tested and reviewed and reported the potential mistakes, that makes his life much much easier.
