"Computer, fix this code and don't make mistakes."
if you ask me, mushrooms are a bullshit double standard. THEY get to show their genitals to passing hikers in the state park, but when I do it, suddenly everyone gets real prudish? What’s THAT about?
I am a professional designer with two decades of experience and I gotta admit, you're smoking crack if you think GIMP (the project that is almost entirely held back by its stupid name) is superior to Photoshop.
It might be able to get the job done for small tasks, but it is not a serious tool for serious people. I'm sorry. I'm as pro-FLOSS as anyone can get, and even I recognize that right now there's just no competition in the design department. Affinity is Mac-only, and comes with its own problematic aspects.
AI photography is so stupid. That target's got legs. Handsome ones, too.
I'm really not far off. Once my Tiny11 install breaks, it's on to Bazzite.
FWIW, this is why AI researchers have been screeching for decades not to create an AI that is anthropomorphized. It is already an issue we have with animals, now we are going to add a confabulation engine to the ass-end?
Honestly it's a little staggering how much better web video got after the W3C got fed up with Flash and RealPlayer and finally implemented some more efficient video and native video player standards.

was a revolution.
Godspeed, you hero of gyros, you hoagie heroine, you rigoletto of Ruebens...
Most InfoSec researchers are unaware that most hackers can be stopped by saying "please."
I have been saying it for 6 months straight now, and now, I need you all to say it with me:
No matter what is to come, we. do. not. split.
I worked with one of the inventors of IPv6 for a bit of time, and I think knowing Carl really gave me an insight into who IPv6 was invented for, and that's the big, big, big networks — peering groups that connect large swaths of the Internet with other nations' municipal or public infrastructure.
These groups are pushing petabytes of data every hour, and as a result, I think it makes their strategists think VERY big picture. From what I've seen, IPv6 addresses very real logistical problems you only see with IPv4 when you're already dealing with it on a galactic scale. So, I personally have no doubt that IPv6 is necessary and that the theory is sound.
However, this fuckin' half-in/half-out state has become the engine of a manifold of security issues, primarily bc nobody but nerds or industry specialists knows that much about it yet. That has led to rushed, busy, or just plain lazy devs and engineers to either keep IPv6 sockets listening, unguarded, or to just block them outright and redirect traffic to IPv4 anyway.
Imo there's not much to be done besides go forward with IPv6. It's there, it's tested, it's basically ready for primetime in terms of NIC chip support... I just wish it weren't so obtuse to learn. :/
Nah, as someone who gave an honest, college try at making use of OneDrive, I maintain its fate vis a vie the rusty hook.
