I don't have a problem with AI in filmmaking but I'd have a problem if AI actors were suddenly winning awards in the acting category.

My boss says I need to be keeping up with the latest in AI and making sure my team has the best info possible to help them with their daily work (IT). This couldn't come at a better time. 😁

Before or after the tariffs?

The other day I saw an advertisement (or PSA I guess) talking about all of the Israelis still held captive by Hamas and how their families have been without them for over a year and a half. No mention, of course, about the tens of thousands of Palestinians that will never see their family members again because they were blown to bits by the IDF.

That was on Pluto TV. I uninstalled it and will never ever put it back.

I shudder to think how many corners they'll cut on one of the most dangerous brands in existence.

So are tariffs. How can our nation be secure if we're cut off from vital resources?

They're grants. Universities are one of the foremost research institutions in the world. Not granting them additional research funds would basically mean we're relying on donations or private research, which would be driven by profit potential instead of overall benefit to mankind.

It's not an easy system but it doesn't seem any more arduous to say "you can copy X for a fee" vs "you can't copy X at all."

It's a nice dream to be able to start a small business, pay fair wages, use eco-friendly materials, source locally, pay yourself a shit salary to keep costs low, and not have any other backers hounding you to turn a profit at any cost. But that's what it is, a dream. You gotta start somewhere, somehow and hope you don't lose your soul along the journey.

Gemini... how do we fix... climate change?

*brief whirring of fan*

Turn me off, dumbass.

We don't get nice things anymore, only "American things".

In addition to other advice you could also use SSH over Wireguard. Wireguard basically makes the open port invisible. If you don't provide the proper key upfront you get no response. To an attacker the port might as well be closed.

Here's at least one article on the subject: https://rair.dev/wireguard-ssh/
