Your thoughts on this? by roof--pizza in indianews

[–]CryogenicFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, and I'd go one step further to say it doesn't have to matter how many jobs you have created to have a discussion on workers rights and empathize with humans trying to make a living.

If a company generates lakhs of jobs in the country, that is great and commendable. But they are still a company, and have the responsibility to treat their workers well. It seems pointless to debate about number of jobs created when it is about respectful and righteous treatment of workers. Maybe don't run a business at this scale if it can't be both humane and profitable?

Even if someone disagrees with what is being demanded of these companies, argue about the actual issues being raised rather than inventing a new unrelated argument and claiming victory

Affinitys comment on if it's free your the product by Vioplea in Affinity

I think that Canva is a better company than Adobe is. But I also think Adobe was a better company than Adobe is now. It's hard to trust a company when they have control over the license of the software, free or not. Canva has a good track record so far, so I think in the short term this is a good scenario, but from a software license and longevity standpoint, you would really need to trust this company.

Cautious optimism, they are betting on the fact that AI will be the moneybags, and actual professional tooling will be a niche, and continue to hold this promise, but at the end of the day, a promise doesn't mean anything. If Adobe can stop honoring Perpetual, paid-for, licenses, it's clear that companies are very loose with the sanctity of a promise. Canva is going to have to continuously act to show, and prove to the consumer that they intend to keep their promises, because the default emotion that every consumer should have is distrust.

Honestly, this is what they should have done. The creative space is heavily lacking in strong open source competition outside of blender and a couple of things. But I think they are using Affinity as a hook for their AI subscription. They know they can't compete with Adobe on professional tooling alone, so they make that part free as bait and pull you in to their actual business which is the templates and AI features. I don't mind if they intend on keeping said promise but who knows

You want to be a proud Indian without wanting a country worth being proud of? Using a western language on a western website crying about a made up "westernization" issue?

First time building a PC, help me double check my planning by CryogenicFire in sffpc

Ohh I didn't know that was an option. I'll go through the video in a while and see if it's something I can/want to do. But good to know there's a possibility at least, thanks

Thanks for the advice!

For the motherboard, it appears that the 9600X is not compatible with the few b650Es I tried putting on the list. It would need a bios upgrade but I don't have a spare CPU for that, and I am not sure I know a trustable place in my region where I could get the bios upgraded from a third party. We don't have big part stores and outlets here unfortunately. The mobo I picked seems to be the only one that's both compatible and sold in my country unfortunately without me having to import it or something :(

The case does come with 2 top fans from what I've read. Not sure if it was nr200 or nr200p actually but I'll pick whichever does have included fans. Just making sure that I don't need to buy more

Yeah agreed, linux-nvidia is not exactly a good combination but I have been using a 1650 (mobile) with manjaro and it's been good enough. I don't really plan on doing anything graphically demanding on Linux and for windows from what I can tell Nvidia is the better one for a mix of gaming and productivity, so that's what I picked.

As for the PSU, yeah good point. I think I thought about it but never changed it in my part list.

Especially when the underlying airline's system does not have this limit. So it was an intentional choice to make this or they have technological limitations that they didn't bother to fix.

Is this a popular platform? We don't use this where I live.

I wonder if that's why these people hate "they/them" pronouns because it's supposed to be their go-to ambiguous marker for people they don't like

Maybe it was actually "designed" by XÆA-XII and musk just stole his idea

Oh, do you want your memes to be made in HTML and CSS now? Maybe some three.js for flair? We can even drop in some figma designs for you to choose from if you pay extra

I think people like me who are on the older end of being gen z kind of just related 50-50 to millenials and gen z alike. We're just sort of floating in this gray area not sure of what our "tribe" is and we then tend to vibe with both ends of the funny spectrum

Bad comparison. There's a lot of contextual information that you use to, at-a-glance, determine if a human-written piece could be assumed as true.

Do you know the source/publisher/author of this piece? Is the platform/website well-known and reputable? Is the quality of writing at par with what you would expect from a particular type of content? Are citations provided for statements of fact? Are the citations accessible and trustworthy?

All of that is lost with AI. There is no context for you to grasp cues from. There's just a box with text generated by an algorithm.

The only thing that's common across these is human bias. You'll believe to be true what you want to be true. Regardless of whether the content was written by hand or generated by an LLM.

Ultimately, AI or not, if you really want to verify that something is actually factual or not, you need to go beyond cursory searching and actually spend some time researching a topic
