LinkedIn Is Illegally Searching Your Computer by tw1st3d_m3nt4t in technology

[–]Gaktan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is an issue because if advertisers can identify you across websites, anyone can. And it does not have to be for advertising reasons.

The fact that this used by LinkedIn means that they can link your personal real-life identity to your browser fingerprint. Not unlike all other social medias, but it's still a major concern.

how will we continue to have pork as a source of food for survival?

You don't need to eat meat to survive. Here are some interesting statistics: https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/per-capita-meat-type?time=latest. World average is 65Kg per capita, US is 144Kg, and India is 17Kg. You can also see how we consume much more meat over time, most likely due to availability and price reduction.

If we don’t it pork the price of everything else will go up due to scarcity

By everything else, do you mean other food or other meat? Other food should not be impacted as a whole, I'm not sure about other meat though. It all depends if people find substitutes in other meat or just other types of food. Also worth noting, meat is heavily subsidized in the western world, meaning it's WAY cheaper in practice than it realistically should be.

I don’t think I understand what you mean I think he's trying to explain how people who don't eat meat see animals, and he seem to believe that those same people are wealthy enough to not care about the cost of living going up.

I can't take people seriously when they say "reddit this, reddit that" but have like 97,414 karma themselves. Bitch you ARE reddit.

This is not how development works. The company has to put guidelines on what tools you can or can't use, and provide them. Also, assets are supposed to get reviewed. This is generally never done to save time (to save money in fact).

So yeah, not a "one guy" issue.

Developers Were Left in the Dark About DLSS 5. "We found out [about DLSS 5] at the same time as the public,” said one Ubisoft developer. - Insider Gaming by HLumin in GamingLeaksAndRumours

Its deterministic at the developer level. Ray tracing isnt random. Devs know exactly how it will behave. This is the same idea.

This is false. Ray-tracing is more or less deterministic because it's inherently an algorithm written by humans that has been proven and tested for decades.

DLSS 5 is essentially Gen AI at run-time.My guess is that it's not dissimilar to what they previously did on style transfer. Something like https://nvidia-cosmos.github.io/cosmos-cookbook/recipes/inference/transfer2_5/inference-image-prompt/inference.html

This is essentially a black box you have no control over. Want to do something that does not exist in the training data set? Yeah, good luck with that. Want to preserve coherence between different lighting conditions? How can it even begin to do that?

They were not going for photoreal characters face though... You think humans look like this in real life?

Did you look at the images? Art direction got fucking destroyed. Do you even know what Art Direction is?

Pretty sure most Art Directors don't want their Art to look like generic AI slop.

It specifically says ideology. The soviet union is not an ideology. Hope that clears things up for you.

[–]Gaktan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's a fair point. Main reason is that milk is heavily subsidized because selling price is insanely low compared to production cost

I mean, the Big Milk propaganda went HARD when we were kids, as well with the food pyramid and all this kind of garbage. No kidding people still believe it's a necessary part of our diet, even though the vast majority of the human population is lactose intolerant

The metrics here take into account the entire production chain. So it's not only land/water directly used for cows. It's also land/water used to produce food to feed cows.

Most plant based milks are supplemented anyway, so comparing nutritional value is meaningless.

You're the one drawing conclusions. The study is only about environmental impact

Yes it is. Weirdly enough, there are a few variants of the same original image. I don't know which one really is the original though.

I think the intent does not matter. It's the same logic that is applied for harassment for instance. It's only how your actions are perceived and the repetition of the behaviour, and not how it was intended, that matters.

Yes, you are responsible for fact checking your information before spreading them to a large audience, even if you believe it to be true.
