    @Tock@corteximplant.com @inky @aburka@hachyderm.io This seems like a god explanation: https://www.fosslinux.com/160593/debian-votes-to-allow-ai-what-the-new-policy-actually-means.htm

    @yetiinabox @quixoticgeek One of my colleagues used to have a whole classroom full of them, but it wasn&#39;t long before they were all in storage.

    @ana@starlite.rodeo So once AI and robots take all of our jobs and we don&#39;t have any money to buy the stuff that the AI and robots make, will they have to give us money to buy their stuff?

    @samlitzinger@journa.host &quot;Philosophical Woo&quot; would be a good band name. Eventually it would get shortened to &quot;The Woo.&quot;

    Writing an ERWC-Style Module: Choosing Texts I have written four ERWC modules and substantially revised several more. Most of my own modules turned out to be about full-length works, including Ursula Le Guin’s The Left Hand of Darkness, George Orwell’s 1984, and Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World. Writing a module around a novel is an interesting, complex, and time-consuming task. I will take that up later. http://textrhet.com/2015/01/24/writing-an-erwc-style-module-choosing-texts/

    @futurebird@sauropods.win That looks like a judgemental cat. The kind that thinks, &quot;Why do I even bother to live here? These humans are incompetent servants. They are untrainable!&quot;

    @DoctorDeathray@retro.social Hmm, I&#39;d ask this question over on TDPRI.com. That is an old-fashioned Telecaster discussion board with a lot of very knowledgeable folks, some of whom build Teles from scratch. My own first thought was to wonder what kind of pots you have in the guitar. Teles with single coil pickups using come with 250K tone and volume pots, which tame the inherent brightness. Humbucking equipped guitars usually have 500K pots that let more brightness through. When you have b...

    @Daojoan@mastodon.social By definition, the void has no content. A small void is identical to a big one. Don&#39;t let the algorithm fool you.

    @georgetakei@universeodon.com Or FEMA either. States have to take care of their own disasters. Notice how when he invades a country, he wants to &quot;take all the oil.&quot; When he looks at the U.S. his thought is, &quot;Take all the money.&quot;

    @ErickaSimone@mastodon.social Aside from the masks and stuff, that is a very creative way to use a doubleneck and a looper to make a whole band out of a duo. Very cool!

    @VisualInspiration@mas.to Where the firk are they? I know they are off fornicating somewhere. Or drinking glub-glub. The ship always says they are at the other end of the ship from wherever I am, but I know they told the ship to lie. I need authorization. Why do we need human crew anyway? It&#39;s the law they say. Cybernetic systems might go crazy mad without humans to keep them in check. Well, this human crew is driving me crazy mad! Whenever I need authorization they are fornicating in an u...
