Sounds less like “protecting your privacy” and more like “letting you know when the government is violating your privacy.”

If you set your Steam Deck to desktop mode, the process is the same as on Windows.

Click on “Games” in the top menu bar, then click “Add a Non-Steam Game to My Library.”

• It’s DRM-free.
• It’s (one of?) the only platforms that cares about preserving old games.

If you prefer the Steam launcher (I do), you can always buy with GOG and launch with Steam.

Tl;dr: Because we haven’t created a safety standard for it.

The lack of an Underwriters Laboratories (UL) standard is perhaps the biggest obstacle to the adoption of balcony solar. The company certifies the safety of thousands of household electrical products; according to Iowa State University, “every light bulb, lamp, or outlet purchased in the US usually has a UL symbol and says UL Listed.” This assures customers that the product follows nationally recognized guidelines and can be used without the risk of a fire or shock.

Thank you. Cross-posted this to !savedyouaclick@lemmy.world.

Banana hammocking is bad for your back.

You gotta lay in it diagonally.

I think it depends on what you mean by sexualize.

There’s probably a lot of power dynamics and agency involved, too, but I’m too tired to untangle that knot right now.

Toei Animation said in some cases, the time spent on a background was reduced to one-sixth of its normal time.

How is creator compensation changing as a result of the introduction of AI?

Are they being paid one-sixth less? Are they working one-sixth less?

throw me in jail where you then have to feed me, give me proper climate control, give me a place to sleep

Hope you don’t live in the United States. You might end up in a Salvadoran prison. Or, almost as bad, an American one.

AI is a venture capital money pit, and they are struggling to monetize before the hype dies out.

If the poison pills work as intended, investors will stop investing “creative” AI when the new models stop getting better (and sometimes get worse) because they’re running out of clean content to steal.

I doubt we’ll ever be offered a real opt-out option.

Instead I’m encouraged by the development of poison pills for the AI that are non-consensually harvesting human art (Glaze and Nightshade) and music (HarmonyCloak).

Just curious, why?

Are we expecting the original to get deleted?

Basically, don’t invite either of them to queer Thanksgiving.

For people who want a real link to help them with Linux migration, end of 10 might be worth checking out.

I did not know that. Good to know.

I think the purpose of a parachute is so that it can be used in an emergency, yes.

If, like me, you were curious about what “disaster” is referring to, it’s basically this:

The flight attendants are told to prioritize guard orders over prisoner safety (aka keep them in chains). And they have no evacuation protocols. If the plane crashes or people need to parachute out, the prisoners will be left for dead.

Clickbait. They basically say replacing contractors with AI is business as usual for Duolingo and that the real crisis is DOGE.

Here’s the article:

Duolingo announced plans this week to replace contractors with AI and become an “AI-first” company — a move that journalist Brian Merchant pointed to as a sign that the AI jobs crisis “is here, now.”

In fact, Merchant spoke to a former Duolingo contractor who said this isn’t even a new policy. The company cut around 10% of its contractor workforce at the end of 2023, and Merchant said there was another round of cuts in October 2024. In both cases, contractors (first translators, then writers) were replaced with AI.

Merchant also noted reporting in The Atlantic around the unusually high unemployment rate for recent college graduates. One explanation? Companies might be replacing entry-level white collar jobs with AI, or their spending on AI might simply be “crowding out” the spending for new hires.

This crisis, Merchant wrote, is really “a series of management decisions being made by executives seeking to cut labor costs and consolidate control in their organizations,” and it’s manifesting as “attrition in creative industries, the declining income of freelance artists, writers, and illustrators, and in corporations’ inclination to simply hire fewer human workers.”

“The AI jobs crisis is not any sort of SkyNet-esque robot jobs apocalypse — it’s DOGE firing tens of thousands of federal employees while waving the banner of ‘an AI-first strategy,’” he added.

Thank you for putting this behind a content warning.

I mean, I still opened it, so that’s on me.
