James R Kirk@startrek.websiteto Fediverse@lemmy.world•The Fediverse Passport: A needed tool.English10·4 days agoI like where your head’s at, but Mastodon’s system of verification seems much easier to me and doesn’t rely on a third party.
James R Kirk@startrek.websiteto Technology@beehaw.org•Crunchyroll accidentally confirmed it uses ChatGPT for subtitlesEnglish20·4 days agoFor YouTube tutorial videos I have no issue with relying on GPT, but I think it’s important to recognize that the translation of art is art. I don’t feel good about the idea of something without a soul or perspective interpolating a work of art from one culture and language into another that might be wildly different from where it started.
That all said, I think Crunchyroll and anyone else using AI art without disclosing it absolutely should be honest about it.

James R Kirk@startrek.websiteto Linux@lemmy.ml•New Linux Kernel Drama: Torvalds Drops Bcachefs Support After ClashEnglish21·5 days agoIt’s annoying to be treated that way isn’t it?

James R Kirk@startrek.websiteto Linux@lemmy.ml•New Linux Kernel Drama: Torvalds Drops Bcachefs Support After ClashEnglish181·6 days agoThat’s a good point, I have no doubt Linux would not be in the position it is if he were more sensitive to it.

EDIT: New rule?
James R Kirk@startrek.websiteto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Cheeto devouring his nationEnglish1·12 days agoThe top finger kinda gives it away imo
James R Kirk@startrek.websiteto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Cheeto devouring his nationEnglish5·12 days agoI am a happy /c/fuckai subscriber and I am still comfortable admitting that image generators can be great for memes and quick jokes.

James R Kirk@startrek.websiteto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Threads is adding fediverse content to your social feedsEnglish3·19 days ago“EEE” doesn’t really make sense in this context, and even if there was some way for Meta to affect non Meta-owned instances- ActivityPub is an open protocol and Meta is allowed to use it however they want.
James R Kirk@startrek.websiteto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Threads is adding fediverse content to your social feedsEnglish2·19 days agoGot it, very interesting! I look forward to it being worked out soon, Wordpress federation is awesome.
James R Kirk@startrek.websiteto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Threads is adding fediverse content to your social feedsEnglish328·19 days agoStill not fully integrated, but it’s nice to see broader ActiviyPub adoption beyond “follow a handful of users who opted-in”. I never expected Meta to be the company inching towards federation and not bluesky. Makes me wonder if Tumblr will ever follow through with their promises to federate.
edit: To the (sadly predictable) response that “Meta will screw you over in a heartbeat” YES, of COURSE they will, that’s why it’s GOOD to be able to access Threads content safely and privately from a non-Meta controlled platform.
James R Kirk@startrek.websiteto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Plex has paywalled my server!English18124·20 days agoJellyfin is great, but in defense of Plex, they announced that remote streaming would require one of the two parties to have a Plex pass was coming back in March so I don’t know if it’s fair to say they are holding anything hostage.
James R Kirk@startrek.websiteto Technology@beehaw.org•Low Tech Magazine: How to Dress and Undress your HomeEnglish3·20 days agoBig fan of low tech magazine!
James R Kirk@startrek.websiteto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Introducing the Fediverse: a New Era of Social MediaEnglish16·23 days agoThis is great, I just cross-posted it to !fedibridge@lemmy.dbzer0.com hopefully someone can post it to Reddit. It’s really nice to see a intro to the concept of the fediverse that doesn’t get bogged down with technical details.
