Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•AI is the digital equivalent of an atom bomb. You can refuse it but you can't prevent others from using it... and there may be dire consequences if only the worst people have it.English
2·2 days agoI can agree with that. As much as I’d prefer pressing the “delete all Ai in the world” button, it has some uses and doesn’t have to be predatory.

4·2 days agoIf devs are reading this, please put it in the app description if you support Piefed. I thought there were only 2 apps available for Piefed until this very moment.

1·2 days agoJump button for comments that jumps instantly (like Red Reader)
Ability to turn NSFW masking off for feed, or at least not make it two taps to open the full image AND demask it.
Redgifs internal feed integration
Have recent subs be account-specific instead of shared. i don’t want to see a NSFW sub on my main.
Cross posting + cross post comment combination.
Maybe some more themes and customization like ability to create custom sub combos from the app (or whatever it’s called on the fediverse, on reddit it is a multireddit)
Please and thank you. A+ app name BTW. Love that it is on F-Droid.

3·2 days agoThis is crazy to me. I would have gone insane as a child if I couldn’t have imagined badass scenarios in my head when I was bored.

2·2 days agoI don’t think “the left” needs to abandon religion. I have the left in quotes because most of the time we’re actually talking about progressives. And you can’t be progressive while dictating the beliefs of others. Leftism, however, benefits greatly from being united in belief. Unity is what it’s all about. But they don’t, because leftists are usually more progressives than anything else. Even when it happens, the hive mind mentality is what makes extreme leftism easy to fall apart and easy to slip into dictatorships at high population levels. And yet, we are approaching a post scarcity, post career having society, which demands socialism to some extent. But with a reliance on globalism. And bad foreign policy in place.
I don’t have an ultimate point in this I guess. I don’t know the solution, but it’s not stamping out religion and it’s not the reactionary fascism that America is a part of now.

3·2 days agoI think that this is good and all for a regular person end user that might want to use it for efficiency. But the main problem OP is stating is that there will be people who will not use it so ethically, and we may not have the ability to “opt out”, as it were.

PC Master Race@lemmy.world•Is getting a 4060 prebuilt in 2026 a bad idea?English
1·4 days agoIt’s not a terrible deal. The main thing I’d consider is what parts you already have and if they are available to be used moving forward. 1070 is old-ish but you might have had 16 GB RAM back then, and if so stick with it. You’re not likely to need DDR5 as a necessity, I’d worry about capacity more. It sucks because usually it’s cheap enough to be a non-factor.
PSU is a little low for a newer GPU but that’s not terribly expensive. You may even have a better one if you built your own last time. Motherboard similarly isn’t too pricy of you want to stick with DDR4.
I feel like you could do better than a 4060. I have a 3060 TI and that’s good enough for now to get me through the drought I think, though I did consider upgrading. But I would consider 4060 (even 5060) a lateral move at best for my 3060 TI. a downgrade in some ways. It’s an upgrade to a 1070 for sure but maybe not as much as you’d think for $800.
I am going AMD when I eventually upgrade, because they are a better value and are far better on Linux which I have most migrated to (I dual boot). Definitely consider AMD.
Lastly if you’re on Windows, consider keeping the 1070 as a second GPU and using Lossless Scaling. This can be set up to run on a specific GPU so you can get more mileage with universal frame gen.
If I were to buy now, I’d scavenge RAM from a workstation or something, maybe through an auction. 32 GB if I could get it. Could even find a decent CPU that way, some workstations have an i5. Then I’d buy the best AMD GPU in my price range after meeting compatibility requirements like wattage, motherboard that works with my RAM, CPU, and GPU. . But that would depend wholly on what deal you can find on RAM. You’re not gonna find a deal through normal means ATM.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What lurking suspicion do you have about something but is hard to prove?English
3·4 days agoIt would explain a lot tbh.

This is a little bit douchey with the wording but not entirely incorrect. Nintendo fans play Nintendo games, and that’s usually it. As much as they’ve gotten better at third party support, it’s cheaper to just buy a separate console or PC, which has games go on sale and have it run better. Rather than buying Witcher 3 running sub 30 FPS at full price years after release because Nintendo tax. But if you do that you’re not a “Nintendo guy”. You’re just really onto video games, so BoTW won’t surprise you.
Similar to how Apple repackages features. If you use Apple products you’re usually either a tech guy or an Apple guy. The tech guys have a healthy respect for Apple but don’t appreciate the repackaging and business practices. The Apple guys are impressed, because Apple facilitates being locked into their ecosystem, and therefore they’ve never seen it.
