Hmm feels weird that it's real. I thought wikipedia was super fussy about citing without sources? Or are they there?

In overwatch EU servers (maybe in other similar games too), in my experience, in terms of pure toxicity hurled at you, having a french accent in comms manages to be even worse than having a female voice. Couldn't help but smile this one time someone told me they wouldn't be using the team comms because they were french. Amazing.

That's an interesting point. It does look that way to me if I concenrrate solely on the thteadmill, but if you look at her legs, you can see that the left one kicks the ground as she gets the momentum, which makes it go back looking plausible (at least to me) :(

But again, very hard to tell with the image this grainy.

I also thought the same, but the more I watch it, the less it feels like AI. The dangling thing in the handle doesn't change speed or disappear after she gets in front of it, and the speed changes accordingly when the treadmill lurches a little forward. I thought that her legs clipped through the thing dangling from the roof, but she actually just kind of hugs around it. The physics of her jump feel slightly weird but that could absolutely be just me overthinking.

The video is ridiculously grainy so it's hard to tell for sure whether it's AI or not, but that getup and the fact that she's doing that this casually towards fucking stairs makes me think that it's nevertheless an edit of sorts.

Ahh thank you for the explanation. I was asking in the context of the root of the configuration though, especially since nixos usually doesn't use a linker at runtime anyway. Afaik, this process only happens to dynamically linked files, which nixos hates for some reason (although things like nix-ld and buildFHSenv exist) so most of the time statically linked executables are used instead.

I was curious why someone would have that when they can just use nix-ld or yank it directly from nix's glibc package or something

Man, I used kagi for 2 months or so and stopped subscribing after that because while there wasn't really anything that I'd seen that'd make me outright unsubscribe there were many things that I found odd and it didn't make sense to pay so much for a product that I didn't agree with all that much. For instance:

I was unable to remove yandex from my search because:

what makes it difficult to act on this is that Kagi does not save searches as a matter of privacy policy, and including more moving parts would make debugging search quality issues nearly impossible

Despite having so many AI features that barely fit into a search engine, such as a translator (slop frontend) and an entire browser?

It called itself "unprofitable" because search is so expensive while giving an honestly insane quota of AI use as far as I can understand (ex. if user pays 10$ for the kagi subscription: 10$ - 20% worth of tokens = 8$ total quota), giving 100 free searches with, as far as I could see, very little protection against burner emails (the translator seems to not need an account at all and it's an llm frontend, so it shouldn't be cheap), and it had many different views in many different places from me.

But all that made me do was hmmm and shrug it off. I mean, we're different humans from different backgrounds, of course we'd hold different views.

But holy shit. Hoooooooly shit. That conversation about the GDPR in the article. What the fuck. What in the actual fuck did I just read there. The fact that the CEO emailed him an explanation despite him explicitly asking to not be emailed too. Bruh.

A bit besides the point, but I have been thinking about this.

I currently use duckduckgo. However I have two problems:

  • Most of the results are usually SEO spam
  • The page takes a ton of time to load

Google also has the first issue (though not nearly as much), and so do all its wrappers.

The only search engine that made me feel more or less like I was getting decent results was kagi (especially with the fact that I could block and report AI slop and block sites that I don't like), but that's just too expensive for me normally.

What do ya'll do for search?
