Copyright issues aside, can we talk about how this implies accurate recall of an image from a never before achievable data compression ratio? If these models can actually recall the images they have been fed this could be a quantum leap in compression technology.

Follow this simple rule for clarity, replace the names and ethnic background of the parties in question with A and B, acknowledge that A and B have historical conflict and are distinct ethnic groups but set aside their cultural characteristics and specifics. Now take the actions of A towards B and compare them to historical examples. Under jurisprudence there can be no a priori exoneration of any group due to historical factors, actors must be judged solely on their actions.

The ICC follows "The definition contained in Article II of the Convention describes genocide as a crime committed with the intent to destroy a national, ethnic, racial or religious group, in whole or in part. It does not include political groups or so called “cultural genocide”." And Israel is walking a fine line at the moment by claiming that they are exterminating a political group "Hamas" but their actions towards the civilian population will determine their guilt or innocence in the eyes of history and the international community. The ICC's job is to collect all the facts that we civilians can not, and make a determination based on those facts. If you believe Israel is innocent, you should not worry as the facts will clearly exonerate them and so will history be written.

Vaselgel is too cheap to manufacture to get the funding it needs to bring it to market, that's why they have been trying for 20 years and haven't succeeded yet. In the US the rights are owned by a non profit Parsemu Foundation formed to fund it. It looks like their private partner NEXT Life Sciences is actually set to come to market with a vaselgel product in 2026 they are calling Plan A.

Interesting marketing choice comparing it to the Plan B pill.

That is the definition of an authoritarian position.

Maybe Atlantis? Also maybe the fremen parts of Dune, though that again is more primitivist in some respects.

I'd say overall Solarpunk still lacks its cornerstone film.

Nausicaa is more solar/windpunk than Princess Mononoke, which is more primitivist.

Reagan cut taxes while increasing spending, despite talking like his goal was to reduce government excess. As a result, the national debt increase for the first time since WWII and has not stopped in that trend since then.

In some sense Waterworld qualifies.

Also Cloud Atlas in some of the settings, though a bit more primitivist

Does anyone have a good source for digitized comics in bulk? I'm tired of paying the corpos for subscriptions and in a dreamworld I'd find the whole backlogs by publisher in decent resolution and format.

 

Hey all, I'm fairly new to the Fediverse.

I'm just wondering what is preventing mallard from being shared on Lemmy, K.Bin, etc. via images or other embeds? Is there some file vetting happening under the hood?

 

A platform to stream torrents rather than download them would be nice.

Also iis it possible to use PopcornTime with more than just the PopcornTime.xyz list?

 

Hello all, I have been dipping in and out of the Fediverse for years now and am loving where the technology is now.

For about as long, I have been interested in building my own network/community for my professional area of activity (cannabis, hemp, and Natural produccts). I have seen many other attempts with few succeeding in the way I would like. One thing I think could really help anchor a nee community would be a steady flow of relevant content in specific dedicated community/magazines so that people can use the community as a source of news and comment on it.

To those ends I am wondering if anyone is aware of a tool that could take RSS feed subscriptions and generate posts from them into a fediverse platform, ideally Lemmy or K.Bin. In an ideal world this would include autosummarization, and posting of a link the the main article. To be clear I would like to run this on my own dedicated instance.

Anyone know of anything like this?
