@jk is the pidge touching down, or going up? Who's to say? maybe they''re just levitating and vibrating really hard

@jk I can relate to this, here's (an attempt of) a picture of a cat

@Rachelburch gorgeous part of the world. What a lovely shot too, especially with all the flowers out.

@Rachelburch 🥰

@Gargron Nothing wrong with that. Enjoy the party! 🎉

@Gargron

Gosh! I stopped watching Eurovision when this madness began. I even forgot that's early May.

@ismh
Is this real?

@ismh @Gargron "congratulations, cupertino, you've ruined pencils!"

@ismh
Coming generations of humanity are going to have a tough time 😄

@dangillmor They could simply be the best question and answer site in the world, but it’s never enough, is it?

@dangillmor@mastodon.social

Funny thing is, with how difficult they make it to answer questions, the impact of users withdrawing content is that the impact of any given user removing answers is amplified.

Too bad it's all for naught (at least from a farming of existing content standpoint): they'll just scan the site backups for content. They'll be boned for future traffic, though.

Funny thing is, the various AI bots have probably already scraped the site of all its contents.

@dangillmor

I can't see how this deal is in _anyone's_ interest.

OpenAI _need_ high-context, unpoisoned data to train on, and even if they correctly keep tabs on what responses are AI-generated, the effect will be to reduce the amount of human-generated expert replies.

Stack Overflow's "product" isn't answers but expertise. If OpenAI could replace that, why bother with StackOverflow, and if not, Stack Overflow just put a big question mark behind their main selling point.

@Mastodon #ActivityPub If integrated #OpenStreetMap it would be an huge benefit to the #opensource #community 🌍🌎. Imagine wanting to see a place on openstreetmap and user photos appear (like google earth) or geolocate a photo or video on socials that supports ActivityPub. The possibilities are huge and would involve more people.

@samhenrigold @dgriffinjones @cultofmac I thoroughly enjoyed the surrealist Apple-based interplay on offer here. An unexpected WTF moment from the hottest new comedy double act on the internet. Bravo!

This was the funniest thing I have listened to all week. Thank you and I hope to hear you in future episodes

@louisa_ 😆

@louisa_ ghost tabby! 😍

@Gargron Ruth Radelet's (of the Chromatics) music video for Stranger was shot on 16mm. Released a year ago.

@Gargron
I don't think so.

I'd bet a lot of money it was shot digitally, and made to look like film. And they did a bad job, throwing every bad film filter they could find at it.

Portions of most frames are way to sharp and clean to be shot with film cameras that have so many other problems.

Sorry

@Gargron On the other end of the musical spectrum, Knocked Loose did their newest video entirely on film.

@stroughtonsmith

@stroughtonsmith Incredible to watch this game torpedo itself into oblivion. Hard to fathom that no one stepped in and stopped this.

@stroughtonsmith Sony has been user-hostile since they became dominant with the PS4. Shame that Xbox has become so irrelevant. Has made this life-long console gamer (and PlayStation fan) turn to PC gaming for the first time.

@runpaintrunrun Just like his brother!

@Gargron

The kitty is hacking the printer so that it actually works the way it's supposed to

@Gargron

Does the kitty already retrieve printouts reliably? 😁

@MooseAllain i haven't laughed out loud at the Private Eye in a while, but this did it. it's a wonderful cartoon. good to see you are in the Fediverse!

@MooseAllain That's so stupid, I love it! :)

@MooseAllain Very funny.

@Gargron That's a wonderful photo. Looks a lot like the cover of the Tapestry album.

@Gargron @NotFrauKadse That cigarette shoes is it as an image from the ‘70‘s. 🤷🏻‍♀️
Lovely light.

@Gargron @NotFrauKadse I really like this shot. The lighting is wonderful, and it exudes a very authentic and relaxed atmosphere. Nice work!
