- Comment on Why don't these code-writing AIs just output straight up machine code? 10 hours ago:
They would not be able to.
Ai only mix and match what they have copied from human stuff, and most of code out there is on high level language, not machine code.
In other words, ai don’t know what they are doing they just maximize a probability to give you an answer, that’s all.
But really, the objective is to provide a human with a more or less correct boilerplate code, and humans would not read machine code

- Comment on Notepad autocorrected what I was typing for my foreign language exercise 3 weeks ago:
On windows 10 notepad is just plain old notepad, the same since ever. When did it got all those extra features in the last 10 years?
But see, we are debating notepad and not recommending Linux, at least…
(Indeed you ate right, I was referring to something I only thought and didn’t wrote: that there would be somebody fretting over how notepad had to have text correction capabilities, and you did, but I didn’t write that, so my answer did not make sense. Probably I am not making sense either now, whatever)

Yep, exactly what i said!

A bit less that half reply

Let’s discuss 9instead why would be good to replace such a solid and no frills tool like notepad at all?
- Comment on Notepad autocorrected what I was typing for my foreign language exercise 3 weeks ago:
… On notepad?
Oh come on, use some word editor if you need autocorrect. Notepad is a quick fast text editor that is mostly used for script editing and small stuff, its supposed to be just a plain text editor.
Having said that, I will shut up but still think that notepad never needed a rehaul.
- Comment on I cannot hook an ethernet cable to a router because the router is using all the plugs. What is a backup to make a Lemmy instance with Yunohost? If there’s no other way, what else can I use? 3 weeks ago:
The issue here is the USB stick, not the router. Use WiFi no problem but self hosting on a 32gb stick is a disaster waiting to happen, specially with a write intensive task as lemmy.

He just want you to use your brain and try out stuff by yourself. Go on!

Get a switch, a cheap 5 ports gigabit one is only like 10 bucks or 20 if you want a reputable brand (not needed).
Or just use WiFi…
- Comment on How can I create a Lemmy instance without coding or the use of Ethernet/router wiring? 3 weeks ago:
See here wiki.gardiol.org/doku.php?id=services%3Alemmy for specific lemmy instructions and here wiki.gardiol.org/doku.php?id=networking%3Aexterna… for how to remote access stuff.
While Ethernet is recommended, WiFi will work as well.
The above links are my personal experience only and indeed YEMV.
- Comment on Why do Americanized names of places etc exist? 4 weeks ago:
Would it make a difference?
Its not an English speaking country and its in Europe.
My point stand true for all major European languages like French, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and many more.
My native language is directly derived from Latin and we have a very interleaved history with all Eu countries.
I am using English here because this is an English community.
- Comment on Why do Americanized names of places etc exist? 4 weeks ago:
This thread is full of people who think English is the only language in the world. Its not, every language calls places with their own fashion, often different from how they are called natively. Its just how stuff works when in a country people simply don’t speak the “other” language and don’t share the same sounds either.
Calling the places with their original spelling will only create confusion because in that language, that place has a different name.
Its called translations and its how languages work, get over it.
- Comment on Why do Americanized names of places etc exist? 4 weeks ago:
I don’t want no English telling me what I need to call a country or a city, thank you, I already have that in my native language, ah! :)
- Comment on Why do Americanized names of places etc exist? 4 weeks ago:
Its not respect or lack of it.
Its just human culture and how it works. If a place is so common that its names very often, it gets a local name, or it got it in the past.
Changing that would bear no consequence on how we see that country/culture/place at all.
- Comment on Why do Americanized names of places etc exist? 4 weeks ago:
What?
In myanguage we use our names for places. Like London or Paris, we have local language names. For less known places we use the original name, like New York or Birsbane.
Most important is when the name has historical importance for our culture, we most probably have a localized name for it, otherwise we don’t.
And no, we don’t use the “american” names at all
Its cultural, nothing regarding respect.

He has one thought on his mind: “sex with a 16yo” repeated in a loop until he goes to jail.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
On many places in the world this is considered acceptable. Up to 150y ago it was mostly ok everywhere. Also social class counts sometimes.
No, I do not condone that a 16yo (whatever the gender) has a love relationship with a 42yo. Its so much wrong on ALL aspects.
But without knowing the background, location, family situation and much more, giving out judgment is just stupid.
I am father of a similar teenager, who luckly has no such tastes, but I do not know what I would do in such a situation. Would I condone it? Absolutely not. Would I prohibit it? Mmmmm would that be of any use? How would I address such an issue is probably by talking to both (separately). Yes I would go as far as telling the 42yo to fuck off or I would call the police on him/her. Or destroy his/her car/mess him/her up personally if I am in a place where the police would just do nothing.
But I cannot judge how and why the parents in OP post, without knowing more of the situation.
- Comment on How do I request an inactive community on Lemmy? 4 weeks ago:
Every instance can do as they please. Check the current instance where the community is hosted. Or just start a new one on a different instance…
- Comment on Is there a way to get a massive dump of memory stuff off my laptop by uploading it to a torrent? If so how and can I make it private just for my access? 4 weeks ago:
Why? Just copy the data out of the laptop. A torrent only make sense to let lots of people download it, not for 1:1 data transfer that would be massively inefficient and would have zero advantages.
As for making it private, just don’t share with anybody and only seed it yourself. But of course nobody would ever download it, except yourself if you manually copy the torrent to another machine and leech it yourself.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
You keep posting this question over and over again.
How can we even give you ideas if we don’t even know where this land is?
I have an idea, make a ski resort! Another idea, build a fun water park on it…
Wait, how we can even know that anything like that is possible there?
Can you develop yourself? Do you need to sell it for cash? So sell it. When? Who knows.
- Comment on What are some countries you’ve visited that shocked you with unexpected friendliness? 1 month ago:
Iran has been by far the most friendly and welcoming people. And I visited -a lot- of places.
Also USA had very welcoming people, I must have been lucky by judging from people online, but in real world, my experience has always been very positive.

Cut damage. They cut the board without some protection and that ruined the hard white layer. Shitty carftmanship.
- Comment on why is EVERYTHINGGGGG behind a paywall? 2 months ago:
Gimp or krita are free and can do what you are looking for image editing and transparent background.
Free webapps? And who pay for the hosting? You are looking for the wrong target.
Lots of free PDF editing tools. Even web ones of you self host those (Stirling PDF anyone?).

- Comment on Am I a bad artist 😂? 2 months ago:
I like it on a kind of way.
Makes me think, which is good.
It feels simple. Not mean “look simple” but feel simple.
No idea if that’s good or not.
Overall, yes, you are a good artist. Just because. I didn’t do it but you did, so you a much better artist than me.
