I think it's funny when people show the suggested ai thumbnails in a community post or whatever making fun of it
Matt lowne did it a bit ago and it's kinda hilarious how awful the suggested thumbnails are https://youtube.com/post/UgkxMgmzHZ4AMnR4CShol15LcikhaKsxXvl6

This is the same reason nobody in the group chat in the cornell case spoke up, everyone in it was almost certainly already known to be trusted to not speak up about such things, or be actively interested. Nobody that would have told the authorities would have been allowed in, even though many guys (likely even a decent amount of college frat guys) would have spoken up if they were in the chat. They would never have been invited in the first place

Is there actually a downside to just, typing a random string of numbers manually over a number generator?

Honestly don't even need to infiltrate, just let them do the work of getting candidates into elections, just still vote for them and that's it, and push them further left, or pull members further left. Even in the primaries it's better to vote for them unless there is a better candidate. I just see no reason to actively fight, they're still better than nothing, and also often already doing community/direct action, getting boots on the ground to go talk to people and get them to understand and support socialism.
Tbh I'm not entirely sure what you mean by them not having solidarity with anti-imperialists in the global South either tho

Ok so how about we do that, and also vote for DSA? Like while we are building this party, why not just also have everyone go out and vote every few years? At the very least, having democrats and DSA types won't actually prosecute and actively fight against such a party while the right absolutely will. And people seeing that change is possible from incremental policy change can also help people see that hey, these socialists aren't so bad, what else is further to the left that could be better?
All of that is also just so far out, I would rather have slightly better policy on healthcare, affordability, queer/trans rights and acceptance, etc. I don't want to sacrifice my trans friends lives and safety by letting the right win temporarily in hopes that it will cause a violent revolution resulting in true communism in a few decades if it means they won't be alive to see it, whether from being killed by the state or from suicide. Even if it means a few extra decades of fighting for true communism
Edit: also, if current day DSA takes majority power, that opens the door to further left parties being viable.

Y=-x²
Y=-x^2 is a perfectly valid and understandable equation tho
Edit: I completely misunderstood, the line is how you should read it lol

After GOTY pull, Clair Obscur devs draw line in sand: 'Everything will be made by humans by us'
So if I'm reading it right they basically just tried it out and then decided to not use it, removing anything that used it? I can see how technically that it 'was used at all in development', but also seems a lil silly to pull the awards based on it.
They probably should have clarified how they used it a lot earlier, but I also don't blame them for trying out a new tool.

Driver facing camera in cars
Yep, creepy, and point about the laptop camera is often invalid because depending on the model some laptops have a hardwired switch or cover for exactly this reason. Also usually have a light to tell you it's on, and aren't constantly in use.

Reddit’s 2023 r/Place turned into a battleground for dunking on the CEO
Another fun thing is that at 0,0 in the center of the canvas it said "Never forget what they stole from you r/save3rdpartyapps" and later had a join-lemmy.org banner above it. We also had a few other places for the join-lemmy banner but that was the final location, and a big thanks to the Black Company discord server for helping with that.

Linus Tech Tips (LTT) release investigation results on former accusations
Reply in thread
Unless I'm reading it wrong thats exactly what they did, hire a third party, external agency to conduct an investigation. If the complaint is that it's biased because they paid them, then idk what else you wanted them to do. I could understand not fully trusting them still, that's your opinion and choice, but criticizing them for conducting a voluntary third party investigation is a little silly

Second one isn't a source, and first one literally says he implemented a tax on second houses, which is a tax on the rich. I don't know what you mean.
You also can't blame someone for not reading every comment on every post in the community.

Superconductor Breakthrough Findings Replicated, Twice, in Preliminary Testing - Tom's Hardware
Heres my analysis of what all has actually happened from a similar post with this article yesterday
From reading through the article and it's sources, here's what seems to be the case:
a simulation at Berkely National Labs with their supercomputing capabilities has verified that LK-99 theoretically has superconducting properties
Argonne National Labs also seems to be involved and doing stuff, but nothing official from them yet, besides maybe helping with simulation stuff
a Russian scientist is working on improving the synthesis process and has made some low purity samples that produce the Messnier effect, but higher purity than the original I think. It's all from Twitter (x) threads and a little hard to follow. Her handle is @iris_IGB
China National Lab (Shenyang) first principles analysis suggest gold and silver doping LK-99 will make superconductors as well. [Directly copied from article]
Under the guidance of Professor Chang Haixin, postdoctoral Wu Hao and doctoral student Yang Li of the School of Materials Science and Technology of Huazhong University of Science and Technology they have successfully verified and synthesized the LK-99 crystal. It can be magnetically levitated for the first time and this is shown on a bilibili video. They expect to realize the true sense of non-contact superconducting magnetic levitation. [Also Directly copied from article]
Direct source for last 2 points and also more info in general
https://www.nextbigfuture.com/2023/07/tracking-lk-99-superconductor-replication-efforts.html
I would give LK-99 a 95 percent chance of either being a true rook temperature superconductor or directly leading to the discovery of a true rook temp superconductor in the next few years.
A few caveats however: according to the simulation, the conductive pathways only forms when the copper bonds to a specific higher-energy spot in the crystal, so getting higher purities will likely need a fair amount of innovation on the production process. There are some other complications with the synthesis, so even if it is fully and properly confirmed with more papers and such it will still likely be a while before it can start to be used effectively.
