Not usually, but the second you do it’s complete hell

I want to like pipewire but configuration is a hell scape of configuration files that bare no resemblance to any I’ve dealt with before, and doesn’t recognise my audio interface probably so I have to just fully stop all pw services and use jack for Ardour.

I’m still waiting for a day to use this word in real life

Yeah wasn’t thinking anonymity, but keeping something running and making it hard to take down.

😂 I think I was tired

Seems like the kind of thing a defederated system would be good for…

Well you are doing a poor job of it and are bringing an unnecessary amount of heat to an otherwise civil discussion

Haha wtf are you talking about. You have no idea what generation I am, you don’t know how old I am and I never said there is nothing new under the sun.

You seem to think that one day somebody invented the first language, or made the first song?

There was no “first language” and no “first song”. These things would have evolved from something that was not quite a full language, or not quite a full song.

Animals influenced the first cave painters, that seems pretty obvious.

No… There are a lot of radio shows that get scientists to speak.

Haha coming in hot I see. Seems like I’ve touched a nerve. You don’t know anything about me or whether I’m creative in any way.

All ideas have basis in something we have experienced or learned. There is no completely original idea. All music was influenced by something that came before it, all art by something the artist saw or experienced. This doesn’t make it bad and it doesn’t mean an AI could have done it

What do you mean what do I mean? You were the one that said about ideas in the first place…

I am more talking about listening to and reading scientists in media. The definition of consciousness is vague at best

What new idea exactly are you proposing?

This is always my point when it comes to this discussion. Scientists tend to get to the point of discussion where consciousness is brought up then start waving their hands and acting as if magic is real.

Philosophers are so desperate for humans to be special. How is outputting things based on things it has learned any different to what humans do?

We observe things, we learn things and when required we do or say things based on the things we observed and learned. That’s exactly what the AI is doing.

I don’t think we have achieved “AGI” but I do think this argument is stupid.

Love seeing open source projects from companies that aren’t specifically tech firms

I’m super interested in alternative browsers but never have the time to test them. I always wonder what the Internet would be like if we built it from scratch right now instead of having the legacy of 30 years of development to support.

What browsers does it block?

Someone might recognise your issue though and have suggestions, even if you can’t reproduce it exactly
