Here are a few more I made with Bifröst Project. It can handle generating in 1280x1024 which is pretty nice. I don’t really like the square format that much.

Glad you liked it. Here’s one more for the road!

No one expects the laser from the back.

They say war changes a man. I guess that goes for poodobots as well.

The messed up powerlines were annoying me, so here’s one more attempt.

Sure… It’s a bit hard to get pitbull, lab and robot to all come through clearly but I tried! (I also took it easy on you and didn’t make him too pitiful looking.) First image is the completed version, second one is the initial 1024x1024 generation.

Not bad, but he looks a bit too upbeat for this thread. Let me fix that for you.

edit: I did the other one for fun also.

He seems very helpful and willing to give you a hand.

Any requests? I can make various dog breeds, wolves, foxes, whatever it takes to completely extinguish the joy in your heart.

Bonus white Dobermann and Siberian Husky pup.

That is the worst site I’ve seen in a long time. Do yourself a favor and add

Then it’s a cat-and-mouse game between the anti-adblock tech and the anti-anti-adblock tech.

My money (not literally though :) is on the anti-anti-adblock tech. That can be crowdsourced and generally adapts much faster than big companies.

Fans? Customers yeah, but fans?

They actually did at one point, but they threw it all away.

The article seems to repeat the same stuff over and over again.

On Lemmy, a popular social networking site, user KerfuffleV2 astutely noted that the article repeated points that had already been stated in the article.

“It seems like the article repeated the same content multiple times” said KerfuffleV2, a user on the social networking site Lemmy. “Perhaps they get paid by the word.” the user added.

A rather uncreative article on thestreet.com triggered some snarky online comments including one from a user named KerfuffleV2. This user noted that the article repeated the same content multiple times.

Maybe I misunderstood you but my point was if it interpreted the language preferences I set in the normal config as “knowing” the languages I added and didn’t offer translations, that wouldn’t necessarily be what I want.

The languages I might want to see aren’t necessarily the ones I know. People who are learning languages might set that (I did for the language I’m learning, anyway).

I’m sure there’s a way to disable it, even if you have to go into about:config

The timing and similarity highly suggests this is a problem with how almost all software has implemented the webp standard in its image processing software.

Did you read the article or the post? The point was that both places where the vulnerability was found probably used libwepb. So it’s not that there’s something inherently vulnerable in handling webp, just that they both used the same library which had a vulnerability. (Presumably the article was a little vague about the Apple side because the source wasn’t open/available.)

given that the programs processing images often have escalated privileges.

What? That sounds like a really strange thing to say. I guess one could argue it’s technically true because browsers can be considered “a program that processes images” and a browser component can end up in stuff with escalated privileges. That’s kind of a special case though and in general there’s no reason for the vast majority of programs that process images to have special privileges.

It’s a briefcase full of cash.

I’m pretty sure you could just say “It’s tax free” or even double the amount to $2 million and it wouldn’t really change which people would do it and which wouldn’t.

I’d do it, as long as I was really convinced that the only danger was mental, not physical.

It’s actually not that hard to start having them pretty frequently. I always had that same problem though: I’d realize I was dreaming, say “Wow, I’m actually dreaming and aware of it. This is amaz-” and wake up. There are supposedly tricks you can use to prevent yourself from waking up like spinning around, but it didn’t seem to help even when I remembered to try in the dream.

You can make them more frequent by just thinking to yourself “Am I dreaming?” and checking if you are a bunch of times a day. 5-6 is probably enough. Keep that up for a few weeks and you’ll probably start having frequent lucid dreams. I read that lucid dreams aren’t really that restful compared to normal sleep though, so don’t try to induce them unless you can spare the sleep time.

Ahh, I hate Snap so much. It actually what drove me to switch to Arch (btw). It was just so annoying going to install something and having it try to pull in snap and all its dependencies… And of course, if you don’t want Snap you have to deal with the inconvenience of finding another way to install the app.

There are reasons to dislike Snap on principle and also very practical reasons. It liked randomly preventing the system from shutting down. Installing a new OS on a slow or unreliable internet connection and want a browser? How about we install Snap and then tell to download that thing and maybe a bunch of random internal dependencies with no visible progress and unreliable error handling? Get it away from me.

As sad as it is to say, “in general” no product is. Some stuff is worse than average like cocoa and child slave labor or meat/eggs/dairy and cruelty death for animals but overall unless there’s really visible evidence showing a product was produced ethically (or more ethically), then it probably wasn’t. After all, if the business selling the item could brag about it, they would.
