@vlrny Yeah, it's rough. the ANC already stopped working properly too but I have no idea where the fault is in that because this set is absurdly unrepairable Dx
Do you have a way to repair your current set btw?
@vlrny I wish I could help there, but all my headphones are broken too 
I'm waiting for it to be warm enough without my body aching to at least resolder the damage on my latest bluetooth set

🦊 "System" things - things with system in the name - are just inherently funny to us now, in the same way "trans-thing" names are funny.
🐉 next you'll be making some joke about systemd
🦊 system DEEZ NUTS

Idk how “alt text trains AI” started as a Thing People Believe but like: no. Training diffusion/vision models requires annotation work that’s way more involved than even the best alt text out there.
This is why I get so annoying about people being at least somewhat aware of how AI bullshit works so they can tell that “alt text trains AI” is just another variant of “AI is super powerful and will rule over humans”. Tech literacy, people.
The best thing an AI company could do with alt text is maybe use their own model, generate an alt text for a given image and compare against the human-made alt text but like… that’s no excuse to not describe your images.

I commissioned Evel of @aldercone to make us some new emoji! They're blobfox but with a tilting head and four different expressions:
These are anti-racism emoji. You're welcome to copy them to your instance, but in doing so you confirm that you do not parcitipate in racism, including anti-Black racism. 
If you do use these emoji, consider throwing Aldercone a tip: https://mastodon.art/@aldercone/111223113751816651

Are you using Shopfy to run the backend of your ecommerce store?
Might be time to start exploring alternatives before they absolutely cook you.

suuuuper important research question
@pup_hime good because it'd be awkward to explain to the crown that our exports became bad weather
uspol, macabre
I also question the wisdom of angering bases which have a history of hiring hitmen to protect their assets or committing mass shootings
uspol meta
Almost as interesting as watching people realize where single issue voting will get them in the end
