Because it is. Just recently some VPN provider I already forgot the name of cancelled all lifetime subscriptions. There were multiple posts on Lemmy about it.

A shitty narrator can get me to hate a book I like.

And that is where I see potential for AI. There are quite a few books which I’d love to listen to but they are all narrated by a guy whose narration I can’t stand. AI would open the possibility to choose a voice and I might actually get to enjoy those books. It’s Amazon though so the ethical implications and quality concerns are something I’m worried about.

Ants… some people would rob their mother for the Ants

Oh for sure, most humans definitely have the potential to be good given the right circumstances. I just think we live in circumstances that will lead to AI replacing human artists and most people will not care. I’m not saying those humans are at fault though.

I think you’re overestimating the number of people who care about how the things they enjoy came to be. Clothes made by sweatshop workers, animal product industry, AI Art… it doesn’t matter.

I can think of another 3 letter word, and it rhymes, that would make this even sadder.

Did you skip Capitalism 101?

where people can only extend empathy as far as a situation that it's possible for them to get into.

I wonder if there is a distinguishing term for this.

Empathy = The ability to put yourself in someone else’s shoes (no matter how different they are from you)

? = The “ability” to imagine yourself in a situation that someone else, who’s very similar to you, experienced.

Is the computer/robot able to freely decide when/if to speak?

No = you should direct your attention to your fellow “divine” beings who programmed them

Yes = fuck you

 

If yes, which word(s) and how does it manifest?

(I’ll leave mine as a comment)

(F)OSS 2D floor planner (self.opensource)
submitted 8 months ago by brrt to c/[email protected]
 

I’m just looking for a simple 2D floor planner that is easy to use and has the ability to show measurements.

The two most recommended open source tools I’ve seen have shortcomings.

Sweet Home 3D:

  • Very 3D centric, which over complicates things.
  • Project was recently acquired/handed off to a company and the iOS version is published by “AI Photo Editor Lab SRL”

draw.io / diagrams.net:

  • Very finicky to set up and create floor plans
  • To display measurements one has to add measurement objects to every wall/object

Does anyone have other recommendations?

 

I’m looking for a way to keep an eye on open source software I’m using, especially if there are detrimental changes. Like for example when there’s an acquisition (Raivo Authenticator) or the project has not been updated in a long time (potentially posing a security risk).

But I don’t want to have to read about every project, just the ones I’m using.

Anyone got any ideas?

 

Does anyone know why there are no dedicated Authenticator apps made by for example Proton or Bitwarden?

I’m aware that they have TOTP baked into their password managers but you still need to have at least one separate solution to log into your vault.

 

Is there a Lemmy app for iPad that has split screen like Narwhal for Reddit had? Post list on the left, content/comments on the right side.
