I don’t hate AI, but I’m also not buying that food. I’ll assume that there’s a chance they’ve never actually made that menu item before opening their restaurant if AI art is the beta they’ve got.

The biggest problem is that the Nazis will use that excuse too.

I can understand explicit calls to violence being disallowed. As happy I’d be if all Nazis just didn’t wake up one day, we don’t need vigilantes going around deciding who to commit attempted murder against

I just remembered that I had tried to set this up very early on with my new Pixel 7 years ago, and it’s possible that the Pixel line or Android has better support for this. I also submitted error reports to Google and encouraged others to do so as well.

Pixel devices work properly with Amber Alerts. They support receiving the different levels of alerts and have different settings for each.

I couldn’t find a way to disable “Presidential Alerts” (at least when I last checked around 2031 or 2022).

In the US, the whole system works perfectly. In Canada (or at least in Ontario), since all alerts come in as Presidential Alerts, it doesn’t work in practice.

A few guesses as to why people say it works:

• They’re in the US/not in Canada
• They have Amber Alerts turned on anyway
• Their area gets fewer Amber Alerts after changing their settings by coincidence
• They have another audio device connected to the phone when their device receives Amber Alerts, so the device routes the alerts through the device (e.g. ear buds that they aren’t always wearing)
• They use apps that are able to suppress alerts including Presidential Alerts

Yeah, on my old Samsung, I was able to disable alerts, make it respect DND, etc. But on my Pixel, I’m not.

It’s unfortunate because there are all kinds of settings to customize the alerts on my Pixel, but it’s designed for the system to be used as intended.

The Pixel doesn’t allow you to change or turn off the Presidential alerts (aka. “Your life is in immediate danger”), but that’s what ALL alerts are sent as in Canada.

It’s definitely your phone, possibly your carrier to some extent, and almost definitely not your province/territory (since the system is configured nationally).

The app’s called Alertable! I don’t know if it has Amber Alerts and stuff, but it gives me the alerts that I want.

As per the article, in Canada, Amber Alerts are sent at the top level. Meaning even if your phone lets you set different sounds for different levels of government alert, Amber Alerts are sent at the “Your life is in imminent danger if you don’t take immediate action” level every time.

I “hacked” my phone to disable the system, then downloaded an app that sends me equivalent notifications with the sound effects of my choosing.

Should be

Tell it to download things you don’t like, too! That’s the best way to stop it.

My hypothesis is that Lemmy is very pro-Linux, and Steam has made gaming easier on Linux while also bringing Linux to more mainstream eyes.

As well, the younger crowd on Lemmy are probably on the younger side that grew up with Steam being basically infinite games available at low prices without having to resort to piracy, rather than the older crowd which first experienced Steam as software overhead needed to run a game that was already paid for.

Some games are explicitly plays or shows (SMB3). But I like the idea of the games being homages to his acts, or even retellings of sorts!

Heh, I guess in universe, tie-in games are actually good!

I imagine Mario as being like a celebrity, and 9-Volt is part of the fan club.

Why would/did that result in you getting fired?

Is it not impossible that your information was discovered in another way?

I wonder how it compares to meat consumption, personal vehicles, air conditioning, cheap manufacturing in poorer countries, fast fashion, the internet and its infrastructure…

I’m glad to see people talking about the environment, but I have no idea how AI usage compares to other things that are destroying the environment.

I dunno, regular people can barely handle walking sometimes. Driving is especially hard.

What do most of your veins do?

I think y’all are getting into semantics here. There are different definitions, colloquially, of port and sequel. Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out on the NES might be neither a sequel nor a port depending on the definitions.

The ones that did better on consoles

This is what OP was asking about

The ability to make the same game 20 times and get people to buy it all 20 times.
