[–] TimewornTraveler@lemm.ee 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

um, folk songs? that's all i know about lol. actually I should ask, when you say "browsing the public domain" what exactly does that mean? is there some kind of archive of stuff that's public use?

you'd be sleepy, perhaps for months or years, until you realize that a fulfilling life is not one spent in oblivion and you find a better way to use your time!

love random comments dismissing potentially good policy because "in my country" which you didnt name, it doesn't work

what kind of fucking scientist says "huh that attempt didn't work i guess it never will"?

You're not even going to tell us what country it is so we can see? probably not, because it is probably a shitty comparison.

and for the record, parent comment was downvoted because it's fucking stupid. there's no UBI in this post. it's as if i take a day off and go to the park and say "Hmpf this is why UBI doesnt work!" like what the fuck are you talking about, UBI is not just when lazy day. the only thing that could make this post dumber would be calling me triggered for pointing out how dumb it is

So your brilliant mind sees someone emphasizing how little work they have by saying they watch movies and you think "Hmpf, that's probably what UBI is like!"

And now because you think it, it's evidence? Fuck right outta here chump.

Having two jobs is fraud? What....?

Have you never heard of Overemployment? There are people out there working multiple easy WFM jobs and just raking in three incomes.

You're allowed to have two jobs lol

I would love to hear someone leverage this negative review as cleverness in an interview though

Is "food" a social construct? (lemm.ee)
 

Hear me out. There's nothing innate to an object that makes it "food". It's an attribute we give to certain things that meet certain qualities, i.e. being digestible, nutritious, perhaps tasty or satisfying in some way, etc. We could really ingest just about anything, but we call the stuff that's edible "food". Does that make it a social construct?

Help me understand Voice Recognition tech

I am interested in getting an app that would allow me to make notes via voice-to-text. I work in a field with HIPAA protections. I'm having trouble figuring out the nuances of privacy related to these apps.

First off, is this kind of software considered "AI"? How does it even recognize that a sound equals a word? Do they use LLM tech? Does the tech learn to recognize my voice better over time? Does it use my recordings to learn to understand other's voices? Is this all a black box? How can I take precautions such that no one except me hears the things I transcribe?

This is just such confusing tech! It seems like it's fairly old and common but the more I think about it in relation to current age AI, the more creeped out I get! And yet my doctor uses one regularly... I'll be asking her about it too, don't worry.

Thank you!

is there no way to rotate landscape gifs? (lemm.ee)
 

I appreciate all the hard work you do, but this is a hard No for me. I can't use an app that forces me to view landscape gifs in portrait mode. Is a rotation button a feature you'd consider?

Rendering Tr as Chr ? (lemm.ee)
 

Huh! In my speech, the Tr in "tree" or "trigger" is really close to Chr as in "chree". In fact to pronounce "chree" I have to aspirate so hard to distinguish it from /tr/.

Is this common? [ˈt͡ʃɹi:] instead of [ˈtɹi:]? Why does this happen? Is there something about going from a plosive to an approximant that creates an affricate?

I'm resolved to just watch from my own collection even as I'm checking Netflix (lemm.ee)
 

I am over being disappointed by streaming sites.

"I wanna watch X, let's see if Netflix has it..."

*Opens webpage*

"Hmm... Netflix usually sucks, they probably wont have it. I'm just gonna say I'll watch Y off my hard drive instead. But let's still confirm that Netflix doesn't have X..."

Next thing you know, I'm watching Y off my hard drive.

Streaming services suck so much nowdays that I already resolve myself to watching something else before I even finish checking. Gotta shield myself from disappointment. Why would you pay for each channel on a TV? Just get the hard copy at that point....

"Why is X so hard to find?" (lemm.ee)

No, I wont name the specific title. I don't want to break Rule 3. But I do want to understand why a movie or show can be so hard to find, because maybe that will lead me to understanding how to find things.

I am surprised how hard it is to find some titles. Maybe it's because the one I'm thinking of is an old title, 60s or 70s era. But it's extremely popular, even today. It's been on hopping around streaming services. One would think it would be readily available on the high seas too. I don't really know how one creates a torrent but I'm assuming anything that can be streamed can be captured. I guess maybe it's just not as popular as I think?
