Maybe, maybe not… there’s a credited photographer, for what that’s worth which is not much… what saddens me is that even if it’s real, I can’t truly enjoy it anymore because how how it seems to be AI…

2·2 months agoTechnically i believe that as long as it’s less expensive than the top consoles, it’ll have it’s market share, no?
As a veteran geek but absolute Linux noob, can you explain a bit the differences of Bazzite vs Mint? Just recently installed Mint on an old laptop, and it went quite smoothly… But the real test will be my plex server!

Technology@lemmy.world•ICE Will Use AI to Surveil Social MediaEnglish
16·3 months ago“That’s absolutely right — my mistake! Sorry for that mix-up! Looks like I just confused a respected Latino councilmember with, uh… a totally different kind of public figure. Whoops! Let’s definitely not send ICE after the wrong person again 😅 Thanks for catching that!”

Technology@lemmy.world•Donald Trump and Peter Thiel are using AI to supercharge the surveillance stateEnglish
6·4 months agoSo media manipulation and systematic disinformation to achieve political goals… What’s unclear about the company’s mission? Am i missing something?
Frankly this might boil down to what you’re willing to jeopardize. This might be a case of ultimatum with your husband, i.e. i won’t be with someone willing to pay for our daughter to put out misinformation, harm and pain into the world. If you divorce him and take half the assets, it might make it harder to pay for that quackery.
If you’re not willing to put your foot down to the extent, you might need to make peace with it…

Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•The Oval Office, then and now.
169·6 months agoThere’s a ton of scholarly and peer reviewed articles and studies on the “architecture of fascism” the “art of awe” etc, and how through history, grandiose and gilded decor and architecture has been used to manipulate, convince and enthrall the masses.
Example: https://www.ucpress.edu/books/propaganda-and-the-jesuit-baroque/hardcover
I’m wondering what would or will happen when the Newson, Sanders, AOC, etc start to make messages intended directly for members of the armed forces, saying “this gov is no longer legitimate as it has broken it’s oath to the Constitution. You shall not obey unconstitutional orders”… Particularly if and when some generals follow suit…
Dangerous, but not more so than this fascist government…

What plastic duct? It’s a standard foil one, but had a break in a couple of spots and since we’re replacing it by a new one next week, we have a piece of tape on it… Am i referring to the wrong thing?
UPDATE thanks all for the comments, just a few clarifications and updates:
-
all electrical work is work-in-progress, we’re finishing it up tomorrow, it’s still an active worksite. The old outlet and old bx wiring is being removed, we’ll only have the newer wiring (and of course all outletd will be in their gangboxes and covers will be on)
-
the dryer vent will be changed and installed without sag when we finalize
-
the 4" abs drain connects to the old one with a rubber fernco gasket, those do require hose clamps and they’re up to code (though the top clamp could be straightened!)
-
the water lines are pex, they’re all good
-
we don’t have a choice but to push the water up with the washer pump - the drain evacuates to the city sewer around hip level in that basement
The worries for me are really the 90° out of the sump pump and the other 90° into the drain column, shouldn’t that be a downward Y? And the double S p-trap, is it creating some risk?
-
The top one, where the washer drain comes in? Or further down?
For the record he also connected the sump pump pipe like this, with a 90° - shouldn’t it be a downward Y instead?
