"Völlig unverantwortlich": KI-generierte Pilzratgeber bei Amazon angeboten

service announcement!
because chase roberts first book "computer engineering for babies" (the one with the pushbuttons, and the led, explaing logic gates and latch) is a big hit here at home: the guy is kickstarting the successor with switches and more leds! why dont you go over there and order one or two for yourself? while you are at it, you can add a copt of the original book, this is fantastic stuff to show off your nerdyness on the living room table while not alienating normal people (they love the books as well). here you go: kickstarter.com/projects/babye…

If You Want To Be Friends, Then Why Aren’t You Friendly?
A look at one of the most alarming and pressing problems of our age: the much-lamented fact that "the left" won't be friends with "the right," over "political views."A.R. Moxon (The Reframe)

while I do not have the same condition as this person, i also get negative effects from dark mode. for me, it's mid-term persistent afterimages after reading high-contrast white-on-black text, the world will look like it has scanlines for 5-10 minutes after reading just a short paragraph. i use a program called NegativeScreen for software that doesn't have a light theme...
Hello tech bros a reminder that dark mode gives some people with certain kinds of astigmatism (me) eye strain and headaches and so no it's not always "the accessible option"Test your software on light mode please
If the icons on your buttons are now white on a white background because you never did this, you made an app that I can't use
es ist so genial. überall auf der welt erlobbyen(?) sich verlegerverbände sowas wie das kaputte deutsche #Leistungsschutzrecht, und heulen dann rum, wenn plattformen halt keine previews für links mehr anzeigen. meine fresse, was für eine überraschung, in jedem land aufs neue. protip für die politiker unter euch: hört halt mal mehr auf die menschen, die sich mit diesem #neuland internet auskennen, bevor ihr euch scheissgesetze von der contentindustrie diktieren lasst?
liebs einfach wenn begriffe das gegenteil von dem bedeuten, was sie bedeuten:
rasanter anstieg
quantensprung

Questions about art
I watched this yesterday, and it make me wonder
What will be left of the value of art, if everything claims to be art?
What should make anyone keep pursuing such creative pursuits, if the pursuit in itself is rendered useless?
Why go to great lengths developing something like a personal, creative style, if there's no reason to do so?
Which body of work will society refer to as 'great art from the 2010s and 2020s'?
Which body of work will stand out so much that people in a century will want to immitate it

Buzz2k1: The 'reviving old Buzztracker projects'-project
Enough itching about being unable to revisit eg my early rktic releases, a lot of Demoscene soundtracks (including stuff like Ferner and debris). Having extensively used VST plugins, and pestering devs to fix bugs, I potentially caused this mess of a VST adapter landscape.
Because they all try to index the same location for VST plugins, over time, Buzz inevitably crashed.
Testing a quick'n'dirty dll resource hack, I changed the folders for each loader. Seems to do the trick: Buzz is much less likely to crash in an instant. I tried this with about 50 projects so far, and it works (given the old plugins are there...).

Hope this is useful for anyone else, too!
Now, how does one extract the included Jeskola Mixer and aux return from 'old Buzz' into separate .dll's?
