It isnt pseudoscience, theres some papers out there on locked in syndrome and they have a system that is very good at reading thoughts with something like 75-85% accuracy. Requires very sophisticated and large equipment to use though, and it has to be trained on each person individually (through things like yes/no answers with blinks or focusing on saying one word, so its not some sort of thing that can just be automatically done, it requires a great deal of consent and concentration on part of the staff and the patient). Its very possible this could be downsized and made more available in the decades to come, its still in the early phases.

knowing starmer im sure he was just thinking of cases where people have the cervix removed for cancer or something

lemmy, im a content piggy. make more content for me to stare at blankly. thanks

everyone is a sap for beta testing a game for 8 years, lmao

I was sketched out by their move to get rid of inactive free accounts, but this is nice to see. Really hate the idea that if I'm unplugged just for a bit I lose a ton of contacts.

Its just ok. Its mostly just hanging out in a park and is super commercialized. If you're a little more socially outgoing, go around and talk to people and try to make friends. Easier at a bar. Unfortunately, some people got handsy with me at a gay bar before so I'm not a big fan of it anymore. I've gone to pride basically every year since coming out, sans the covid ones where they stopped hosting it for a while.

i call on joe biden to stop doing genocide

AI actually can be very good at translating things locally while keeping tone and intent, and thats what mozilla mentions here. I'm fully down with AI powered local translation tools native to firefox, it'll put it way above the competition

Some LLMs are low enough in resource usage to do this on weak and older PCs

ROC is 'Republic of China'. That means they think they are Chinese. USE YOUR BRAIN

taiwan is literally chinese, they say they are china. stop inserting your opinion on geopolitics when you havent even read the country's wikipedia page. can you even point it out on a map?

i feel like if youre putting it on an old thing, you wanna go super small in order to keep up with new software demands. Damn small linux, puppy linux are the way to go

i still have an early 90s desktop that i have running that i mostly use to look at pdfs while im cooking, lol

theres a lot of other places reporting on this, and a scientific paper in nature. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-01-02/breakthrough-in-diabetes-treatment-research/103278156

traumatizing people as kids to be productive members of the capitalist system

Do you happen to know what metadata matrix stores? I assume matrix.org specifically stores email and username, right

She has trauma, according to the article. Most traumas are largely systemic issues that have been improperly handled.

how has no one discussed matrix here

thanks, that lets me load it into my setup much quicker. i do environmental research so this will be useful

still a bit of a shame no safetensors or gguf

tragic that it doesnt include a gguf or safetensors file for easy access. ill load it up eventually. this would be very useful for invasive animal research
