Idk I just thought those goth wristbands look cool
I don’t think this is the exact cause for the situation, but having more book related forks would probably just do harm by splitting up the audience. The book reading trackers are absolutely dominated by Goodreads, and any alternative desperately needs as much user concentration as possible.
BookWyrm was my first dip into the Fediverse, back when I was looking for an alternative to Goodreads.
Tbh if there’s a musician that deserves this sort of comments, Eno is definitely one of the best candidates.
This has to have some weird ass allegorical meaning.
EDIT: So apparently this is a picture from a “Stammbuch” (“friendship book”) by some Ludwig Hetzer, from 1620. The scan of the book can be found here: http://digital.wlb-stuttgart.de/purl/bsz475519329 (at 12 recto; has lots of other fascinatingly weird drawings and miniature paintings).
The lower part of the page seems to be a dedication from a friend in Latin (seems to be referring to a birthday?), and above might be the text (probably a proverb) that explans the image but it’s in Greek and I can barely decipher cursive Greek, much less figure out the meaning. The first word seems to be θεος (god), the last might be διχαζει (divide?).
Tbh just going off my intuition and the themes in other pictures in the book… the woman is poking the man with a stick with a heart-shaped ending, which could symbolise love/sexuality/marriage. So it could be like a caricature/“warning” showing a wife controlling her husband, literally pushing him around through emotional influence.
Something of the sort has already been claimed for language/linguistics, i.e. that LLMs can be used to understand human language production. One linguist wrote a pretty good reply to such claims, which can be summed up as “this is like inventing an airplane and using it to figure out how birds fly”. I mean, who knows, maybe that even could work, but it should be admitted that the approach appears extremely roundabout and very well might be utterly fruitless.
Maybe the artist just screwed it up, but there’s a snake species that really does have eyes positioned like that, on top of its head. Arabian sand boa:
Basically yes (though it’s probably not a flash game), diep.io
It’s going to take a million trouser legs to get some things back on track…
Yeah, I’ll shill for dbzer0 as the place to host the community.
less hate towards those who own several houses
There wasn’t hate, period. I find it a foreign and even anachronistic mindset, I’d sooner expect people here to be simply jealous of those better-off. Also, owning several houses, not just two, could be problematic, the govt would probably try to nationalise some of them, at the very least in the early period.
I don’t know the details of how it was all managed, housing wasn’t definitely guaranteed (SFRY had a rapid urbanisation of the population, and apparently it wasn’t easy to meet the demand for new housing), but overall the rate of homelessness was quite low, in part also thanks to the culture that didn’t mind large families living in a single house.
I kind of find it funny that people on Lemmy are so strictly against owning multiple houses, while it was completely ordinary for many people in my country (Croatia) to own two houses while the country was under literal socialist government (Yugoslavia).
Ehhhh, if you have expertise in ANY field outside of like programming, you can easily test various models and see that they produce a lot of crap. That doesn’t require you to understand how LLMs work exactly.
The former, I’m sure. Maaaybe GYBE had some inspiration on their own, but considering GYBE is (or used to be?) a bit of a meme on 4chan music board, it has to be them that the meme is referencing.
Why of course, I sure can’t wait until Israelis genocide Palestinians and finally make the region way more LGBT-friendly, God bless. 🫡
I do have to wonder what do people who claim things like these think of LGBTs who participate in right-wing political parties in the west. Are they bothered by such hypocrisy too?
I’m in exactly this situation right now and I’m becoming more than desperate. I probably have several emails asking me to respond and let people know what’s going on. I don’t even dare to open my inbox.
yo lemming, I heard you like lemmy so we put a lemmy in your lemmy so you can lemmy while you lemmy
