Heya bud I think you’re lost lol

Problem I get is some places call it an Americano when us Aussies generally call it a long black. Same shit with cup sizes, it’s maddening when you have to figure out how to order your usual at some place pretending to be more upmarket than they are

As others have said, just avoid McCafe like the plague find an actual coffee spot via recommendations from locals

Findings could improve training for lip readers and boost the capacity for artificial intelligence to read lips and provide transcription and other digital services.

Horrifying potential for AI but I guess you do have to throw it in the mix in order to get funding for research like this

100%. From the arstechnica piece:

Making Old Reddit users log in could impact Reddit scraping but also will address Reddit’s interest in connecting as much traffic as possible to specific users—a strategy that is common among companies like Reddit that rely on advertising for revenue.

I just found this out naturally and immediately came to lemmy to see if someone’s posted about it.

Seriously I don’t want a reddit account and old.reddit.com without logging in has been a great way of checking up on the odd thing without having an account and being stuck in the dark patterns that keep you engaging

Tea means gossip. It’s queer slang that also broke out into the vocab of those white gen alpha kids

Saw your instance domain and thought I’d add something from home that Malcolm Turnbull has repeated a lot about American politics, which is that when you lack compulsory voting, government parties no longer have to appeal to a broad majority but instead can gain election by exciting a crazed minority with whatever sticks at the wall. Hate wins

Six Democratic lawmakers are pressing the nation’s top intelligence official to publicly disclose whether Americans who use commercial VPN services risk being treated as foreigners under United States surveillance law—a classification that would strip them of constitutional protections against warrantless government spying.

As if Snowden didn’t already prove constitutional protections don’t matter to the glowies anyway. Also, don’t expect privacy by placing your trust in strangers. Use trustless systems for that.

Huh. That write up seems pretty useful. It’s so weird that the redesigned app is just an alias to the old and untouched app that’s still sitting in system32

Glad this was posted here because I thought his script sounded really AI generated (or at least super PR speak). The below quotes really stood out as jarring having heard and read through a lot of AI slop, but the overwhelming praise given throughout the script to the concepts of youtubers and their viewers and finally his new product all also gave me that weird AI deja vu.

1:29 "Soon, the press wasn’t just a press; it was information traveling in waves through the air.

7:35 “Newpress isn’t just another media channel or media company. It’s more of an idea. An idea that journalism can be done differently…”

8:21 “It’s not breaking news; it’s nourishing in-depth journalism that teaches you how the world works.”

I generally enjoy Harris’ content (the bunker video is something I actually sent to a friend and had a whole conversation about - incredible video), so I’m really not trying to be a hater. What I’m actually hating is that picking up on stray deja vu is sometimes the only real way you can know something is AI anymore, and because it’s such a vague reference point I come away with an uneasy feeling about sources like Harris that I would otherwise have been comfortable to treat as trustworthy.
