I think gimp is great software, maybe you just haven’t given it enough of a shot to learn it.

Corporate owned social media is always going to have a far right leaning stance, with algorythms leading to what people watch.

I will be extremely surprised if this comes anywhere near gimp. AI is not at the stage were is can create amazing software all by itself. It will likely be buggy and/or feature incomplete.

Probably more of a joke responce than anythint else.

New phone? I only ever buy used.

This is all trumps fault guys! The US was a friendly, perfectly stable nation until trump came into office! /s

And then every experience I have using someone else’s device is “how do you possibly put up with this many ads”

Why is almost every country on that list worse than they used to be?

It’s quite easy actually. You just need to spend 90% of your day watching TikTok. /s

Seriously though what do you mean by this? Most young people ‘tech trends’ are just capitalism fucking them over, the screen time of gen z and gen A is insane. There is nothing interesting going on there, all the cool stuff is here on lemmy: Linux, open source, AI without the billionaire hype etc.

I’m a member of the younger generation myself and I don’t understand why people so many people don’t see it as a leach on their lives, maybe it’s my neurodivergence that makes me have a different perspective.

Interesting, I will look into that although it does contradict my view that oil companies have control over the US government rather than the other way around.

I don’t understand the wording of that sentence.

They don’t have to extract the oil if they don’t want to, but clearly it’s profitable for them because they are extracting oil.

The coups don’t cost them any money, it’s the tax payers that pay for that.

I’m pretty sure big oil wants more oil. If govenment stops letting them take the oil they will just coup them again. Why does big oil not want this?

I might be cooked

Doing it on tor would work.

But now your making yourself more obvious, and you need to tell google your address. Is it really worth it?

Do they though? They aren’t some kind of god how would they know your if you don’t tell them your address or someone else tells them for you?

I suppose so. And by downloading more rare models you could be the one seeding torrents to others who didn’t!

I’ve just found out a lot of Chinese models are published to modelscope which seems to be a Chinese version of hugging face.

Downloading LLM’s because the US will censor them seams unlikely. Censorship will pretty much always be bypassable with vpn’s or tor.

Maybe I just don’t have the same threat model as you.
