You posted an article you didn't write, people reacted to the article (mainly its title), you took people's reactions as a personal attack while simultaneously claiming no responsibility for what people are actually reacting to.

Grow the fuck up.

This 'beating' you're refering to; ie the continued downvotes, is because you continue to act like a god damn child.

To answer your question directly:

Yes, complaining about people reacting to someone else's content you've posted as if they are personally attacking you is incredibly immature.

So is continuing to tantrum about it once your poor behaviour has been explained to you repeatedly.

Darkassassin07 , 5 months ago to Technology in George Carlin Estate Files Lawsuit Against Group Behind AI-Generated Stand-Up Special: ‘A Casual Theft of a Great American Artist’s Work’

It's called 'George Carlin: I'm glad that I'm dead'. Have a look around, the original upload was removed, but there are others.

Darkassassin07 , 5 months ago to Technology in George Carlin Estate Files Lawsuit Against Group Behind AI-Generated Stand-Up Special: ‘A Casual Theft of a Great American Artist’s Work’

Just finished it:

It's an interesting piece. I'm not sure I'd pay to watch it or any other AI comedy specials (didn't even watch it via YouTube to avoid ad revenue), but given free access I wanted to at least see what's up.

It both starts and ends with very clear disclaimers that this is not George Carlin but an AI impersonation of him. The voice is pretty close, but not quite right, though it matches his cadence quite well. Even without the disclaimers, it's pretty obvious to me it's not actually George Carlin.

The majority of the video is clearly AI generated art to match the current topic, mostly stills with a handful of short sections of AI people mouthing the words. I'm fairly sure the script and art were curated by a human, along with the overall editing of the special.

Quite a bit of highly political comedy in a very similar style to Carlin, but definitely doesn't hold a candle to his original/genuine work. It also discusses what he/it is, some of the controversy around it's existence, and the possible future of AI use throughout all professions, but mainly standup comedy roles and similar (like talk show hosts and news anchors for example)

Worth a watch, if you can keep an open mind and recognize there's a difference between the original and an artistic representation of him. I don't think the tools used changes that, especially with it clearly stated as being an impersonation.

Lmao, you could de-ice the world's roads with all that salt.

Ripped it from YouTube last night to add to my media server; curiously it's no longer available on youtube this morning... (at least the original Dudesy upload I'd grabbed, there's re-uploads)

80% of social media is just reposted memes. TF are you talking about...

Just be happy people are enjoying what you've created. It's not like you were being paid for it anyway.

Somehow I'm not surprised... Fuck Tesla.

I mean, if you're required to stay there that'd be some mad overtime pay where I'm at: first 8hr at 1xpay, next 4hr at 1.5xpay, then everything after that is 2xpay.

I can't say I wouldn't consider it.

I doubt the regions this may be required in will have such labor friendly laws though...

Darkassassin07 , 5 months ago to Mildly Infuriating in My new landlord sent me an email that containts only ads for other companies.

My employer only sends important notices such as changes to medical benefits and how you access them; via the same email they spam me with ads, coupons, random imternal job offers from across the country....

I had blocked it after 13 spam emails, not knowing its also the official channel for important shit as well.

Darkassassin07 , 5 months ago to Selfhosted in Hosting private UHD video

Emby, Jellyfin, and Plex will all detect connection speed, adjust quality settings, and transcode the media to playback without buffering.

I wouldn't recommend Plex. They've been steadily moving away from self-hosted private media servers and towards just serving comercial content to you.

I myself run Emby as I'm rather fond of their development team and their attitude towards privacy. It does require payment for 'emby premier', ie the installable client apps and transcoding features, but it has single payment lifetime licenses as well as monthly.

Jellyfin is a popular open source option that is built on a fork of Embys older open source code before they went closed source.

Either would work for you.

Darkassassin07 OP , 5 months ago to Selfhosted in SquareSpace dropping the ball.

Tbh, laziness and lack of need.

I'll probably reconsider once renewal comes around, but that's ~4 years away. Until then, as long as things continue functioning: meh. Doesn't really make a difference.

Darkassassin07 OP , 5 months ago to Selfhosted in SquareSpace dropping the ball.

Idk, but it seems really stupid.

Having not actually looked into it at all:

I'm wondering if they have an api for updating records instead of traditional DDNS. Not the same thing AFAIK.

Either way, I'm already using cloudflare as a nameserver so this shouldn't matter as much as I thought.

Darkassassin07 OP , 5 months ago to Selfhosted in SquareSpace dropping the ball.

I'm an idiot.

I already do this. The swap to Squarespace wont actually effect me.

🤦

Darkassassin07 OP , 5 months ago to Selfhosted in SquareSpace dropping the ball.

Oh fuck.

I just remembered I use cloudflare as my name servers, google (well, Squarespace now) only handles the registration.

I probably don't have to do anything then.

Kinda feel like a moron now...
