That is because you already had the dependencies installed on your system. Flatpak can share dependencies as well so if you use a lot of them it doesn’t really make much of a difference. And since it’s bundled together it is great for having up to date apps on distros that are not rolling. Also good at isolating apps with different toolkits from mucking up your system.

Yeah I suspect that’s right.

Someone will (and probably better). There are more cameras at protests than ever in history. What’s missing is mass action by complacent people.

Forgetting Ukraine?

Party’s don’t have to be part of democracy though. Nonpartisan democracy might more achievable for China than the west currently as the size of their single party continues to grow. Though I kinda doubt there is a lot of appetite for it. I’m a firm believer in democracy but it’s hard to look at the hyper polarization of today’s parties as beneficial in any way. Especially in the simple two party American system.

These people benefit from a world where real evidence is buried and indistinguishable from deepfakes.

AI hallucination probably

You just made that up.

Yep. Moved all our lab computers to KDE. Gnome’s community is actively hostile and outright disrespectful to anyone even asking about design decisions (which are way more arbitrary than they like to admit). Definitely interested in seeing where Cosmic goes.

Who do you think will be doing this treatment?

We think you’re gonna love it.

No reason this would be mutually exclusive.

Yeah but that’s damage to artists. AI music gives Spotify something to put into a playlist that they don’t have to pay even their meagre rate to.

How is paying a robot money in any way equivalent to paying a government to maintain society?

With that definition you’d have a hard time finding any post on here that isn’t an ad.

That just comes standard on pretty much every SUV now. Half the electric vehicles here have a fuckin light bar across the front. It’s insane how much worse visibility is at night outside of towns. Add in more aging drivers and everyone else not even looking at the road and it’s not surprising.

What they know is Google though. Most normal people doing a search now just take the Gemini snippet at the top. They don’t know or care what AI even is really. I don’t know how OpenAI can possibly compete with web search defaults.

What’s with tech people always stating (marketing) things as akin to high end sports cars. The state of AI is more like arguing over which donkey is best, lol.

So they can use it on the first lap as well? That might be interesting when the cars are so bunched up.

Some QT or Cosmic takes on Pika Backup. The maybe unrealistic dream would be some new non gtk photo dam that ignores editing all together and hands off files as needed to an editor like vkdt. Kinda like Adobe Bridge.
