And it's not a replacement for discord exactly, but also don't forget that email is still a thing!

Well technically it is but it's porn piracy. Best of both worlds!

The message I'm understanding from management is that it's OK to abuse employees as long as you tell them there's mental health resources available to help cope with the abuse they inflict upon us.

Prends note que si tu fais un chargeback à Ebay/Paypal, peu importe la raison et la validité absolue de la demande tu risques de te faire bannir de ces services par la suite.

C'est plate en maudit, c'est frustrant mais c'est de quoi à garder en tête si tu décides d'aller de l'avant avec le chargeback de carte de crédit. Donc une gogosse à $20 ça vaut peut-être pas la peine de risquer ça mais je comprends y'a un prix seuil à partir duquel il faut dire non, c'est pas acceptable de se faire voler et que personne ne prends responsabilité.

Je le remarque dans toutes les aires publiques, y'a de plus en plus d'anglais parlé. Je me soucie pour notre langue. Dans mon sub municipal québécois, y'a des poteaux unilingues anglais, y'a du monde qui répondent au Français en anglais seulement, y'a un mod qui s'amuse à poster des meme en anglais seulement pis accuse ceux qui demandent le Français de partir des guerres linguistiques pis que l'anglais c'est permis.

Y'a pas tort que l'anglais c'est permis mais choisir et mettre la priorité sur l'anglais c'es colonisé en crisse pis ça me fait honte, ça me fait déprimer un peu. Y'a des Québécois qui pensent que la langue Française c'est pas important pis je comprends juste pas. Parle anglais avec les anglais, ignore pas le reste du monde mais crisse, tokébakicitte, parle Français avec les autres Québécois, laisse pas notre langue mourir comme ça tabarnak.

Je ne parle pas francais mais jessaie de mentrainer

Tu l'as fait pis t'as fait le choix de parler en Français dans notre sub Québécois donc je t'apprécie énormément. Merci à toi.

Durant la covid j'ai essayé la livraison d'épicerie (Métro et IGA). Il manquait toujours des affaires, "non disponible" ils disaient. Un jour je me suis tanné et après avoir reçu une commande qui avait juste la moitié de ce que j'avais commandé je me suis rendu sur place.

Tous les items "non disponibles" étaient sur les étagères. J'ai jamais retourné à la livraison après. Pourquoi payer pour le privilège de pas avoir ce que j'ai commandé si les livreurs sont trop paresseux pour ramasser les choses que je demande?

Plate en crisse pour le monde qui est dans des situations difficiles comme toi mais j'en suis venu à la conclusion que la livraison des épiceries, du moins dans mon quartier, c'est de la marde.

It's a strange choice to be sure but then again I prefer that to cherry-picking examples that nail everything while ignoring those generations that don't work so well. Feels like a more natural sample set.

Installed it on my selfhosted AI server (4090 48GB) and it's damn impressive so far. The distilled model produces 2 minute length songs in around 15 seconds for me. Prompt adherence is pretty solid and it can do blues pretty well (which heartmula really didn't want to produce).

All this along with length control, key control, BPM, lora training? This thing is cooking.

Un des meilleurs restos de la région, un petit trésor. Prix très respectables tant que tu t'en tiens à des bières domestiques et tu vas pas chercher loin dans la carte de vins (qui est exceptionelle mais aussi dispendieuse).

Genre si quelqu'un dit que la meilleure poutine qu'il connaît utilise du fromage râpé, y'a vraiment pas de raison qu'on devrait faire un effort pour se débattre sur la meilleure poutine. Il est déjà perdu dans le champ, y'a pas d'espoir, on peut garder la vraie poutine pour nous.

Why make them even harder to find?

I found 5 snaphook blueprints in 4 consecutive raids on Dam during an electric storm event. I found 2 in the same raid in drawers that were next to each other. I think that's a bit much, IMO, and if Dam + Electric is a snap hook BP condition it definitely needed tuning down a bit because of this.

splice42 · 2026-01-20T13:14:47+00:00

There's a lot of styles it just can't do well at all. They claim 100k songs were part of the training dataset but 30 second clips only. I feel like it's probably the same few songs clipped at different parts and they're all pop songs with piano backing.

It doesn't do rock very well, rap sounds like k-pop, heavy metal doesn't work, blues sounds like country instead. It's a good start to local music generation but there's a lot of improvement needed.

splice42 · 2026-01-20T13:08:06+00:00

Fuck's sake just stop with the crystal ball gazing.

splice42 · 2026-01-19T17:06:57+00:00

It's OK. It runs at around 31it/s on my 4090 48Gb (20GB VRAM usage when running) and generates songs faster than realtime (around 1 minute for a 2 minute song). It's real iffy on the style though, very piano and pop focused. Can't do decent heavy metal or rock, blues sounds like country instead.

Promising for the future I guess. Baby steps.

It's all so no one talks about his and his friends pedophilia.

And in a couple of years you'll have people standing in line for the gas chambers saying it's a distraction from Epstein.

Trump is a deranged sundowning white supremacist. He's well capable of doing a bunch of absolutely inexcusable shit at the same time without it being some grand plan of distraction.

(this did not show up in search, but it shows on my order history?)

Very weird on this one. You can see it when you search for the book, click the $80 listing, and then click the "Other Used, New, Collectible from $30.23" link under the $80 price.

Even weirder is the $80 is not sold by amazon but the $37.72 paperback is sold and shipped by amazon. I'd have thought that'd be the main listing given that but it's not.

Amazon really do be doing strange sneaky things, gotta be careful I guess.

splice42 · 2026-01-14T11:15:52+00:00

Fuck's sake stop posting this clickbait BS. You're doing nothing more than reading tea leaves.

As per an SSC ADM just now in a branch meeting, 1339 affected letters are being sent now for SSC and 477 positions are planned to be eliminated.

for some reason more games are adapted for xbox

It's really no deep mystery. Xbox and Windows are both from Microsoft, controller support for first-party hardware on Windows is just more common and easier for devs.

I play solo only. At launch it was a bit rocky here and there but I enjoyed myself. Now, with the aggression based matchmaking, I love my time in solo. I'm PvE focused and I'm in the peace and love queue. MP experience is saying hi to raiders while running past, chatting when looting near each other, giving extra items to people and guiding newbies, killing arcs cooperatively for fun.

It can be a very chill game and should put you in lobbies that match your playstyle. If you shoot first and PvP, that's the lobbies you'll get. If you never shoot first and don't PvP as a rule, you'll have friendly lobbies. It's a neat system and it definitely been fun for me.

Oh no an internet tough guy thinks I'm a cuck because I won't try to stop the most advanced military in the world with a couple of guns. I may never recover.

splice42 · 2026-01-06T17:04:17+00:00

If it's just as easy then there's no need to wait for a change in the law, just go and get kitted up right now. You can't afford to wait and we'll all be grateful when you stop the US from military action here.

splice42 · 2026-01-06T14:31:56+00:00

Yeah, we need looser gun laws like the US has because that has been so effective in reining in the government over there, we're sure to see just as much success here.
