I always saw the rules against Wikipedia to be around citations (and accuracy in the early years), rather than it harming learning. It’s not that different from other tertiary sources like textbooks or encyclopedias. It’s good for learning a topic and the interacting pieces, but you need to then search for primary/secondary sources relevant to the topic you are writing about.

Generative AI however

• is a text prediction engine that often generates made up info, and then students learn things wrong
• does the writing for the students, so they don’t actually have to read or understand anything

Yup, it looks like generative AI + image editing after the fact

Image generators have trouble juggling multiple colors and patterns on clothing. It would be a weird stylistic choice to create that effect with image edits alone

Also if you look closely, she has 3 arms. Two arms holding the phone up, one arm holding a soccer ball against her body?

Looks like one user has been doing the majority of the posting, they might not know that people have issues with imgur / of better options

Thanks! I was looking up Niiofetch but it kept giving me results for Neofetch lol

Neat! I’m somewhat familiar with homebrew but I haven’t kept up with it in years. I didn’t know you could put Linux on it too

I wonder how it would do as a media center for the living room. I’d much rather use a Wii remote to navigate on a TV instead of buttons.

Being able to play Jellyfin off of it somehow would be amazing, I imagine it will need a custom app. Possibly based off of this thing? https://www.wiimc.org/about/

TIL 😮

Oh is that what it was 😄

There’s an account that I haven’t used in years, which gets a “Are you trying to log in?” email every few months.

I got 6 emails at once the other day, figured it was the same junk

Do you have a link to read more about what this is 😄

A launcher is the home screen. You can replace the default with something else

What is this other template called?

Others have covered the bot flag, I’ll add a bit more to this

Maybe because I use VPN

Generally Lemmy (and Fediverse platforms) don’t use sneaky dark patterns or hidden blocks. If you are blocked in some way, there should be something indicating it.

TIL, and also ☹️

Right, good point

This is very cool, thank you! Sometimes when I post here, I link to a related research paper. A lot of research paper sites are a pain to use, and even harder to search with

The share menu seems to give me this

How hard would it be to have some openparchment related links at the top of the article pages? Or perhaps a way to link to the articles details page directly?

I think the confusion is in the way it’s displayed. The notation in the comic is ambiguous, where the division is shown as a symbol, while the multiplication is implied with the brackets, so some people see the question as 8/(2*(2+2))=1, while others see it as 8/2*(2+2).

For the later, my understanding is that multiplication and division actually have equal priority and are solved left to right (rather than an explicit order as PEDMAS and BEDMAS seem to suggest). So the second interpretation would give 8/2*(2+2)=8/2*(4)=4*4=16

The reason this isn’t a problem more often is because

• math questions should be written unambiguously, using symbols everywhere and fraction bars
• in real life problems, there is a certain order in which you manipulate the numbers, and we can use correct notation (with an excessive number of brackets if needed) to keep it crystal clear

Also the (2+2) bit isn’t relevant to the confusion. We might as well replace it with 4 when discussing the problem. No one should be messing that bit up

That’s a good point @ImmyJ@lemmy.ca

lemmy.ca and piefed.ca are both compatible and run by the same organization :)

The other comment said “self-deleting”

For the past short while, one person has been creating and deleting accounts repeatedly. It hurts discussion because the threads keep disappearing. It’s harmful behavior that deserves to be called out

Generative AI “anatomy” diagrams gross me out almost every time. It has a similar effect as those old trypophobia images
