AntiMicroX. I use it for the same reason.

If you have a mic, also consider using Talon to navigate with voice. Saying "talon wake" and "open freetube" instead of navigating with a controller saves a lot of time.

The material can be used like regular plastic when coated,

Coated with what? If you say PFAS, this is worse than microplastics.

Pretty much what AI already was doing on the internet.

Minecraft bedrock edition, that is.

Real Minecraft still supports VR.

You don't need to convince me that trump is a horrible person.

However the words used in OPs title are misleading and bad faith. As for who saw trump's post, sure it matters morally, but it isn't what I'm trying to point out here.

"Trump posted Nazi era symbols" is disingenuous and doesn't help our side.

I meant the thumbnail appeared after he pressed "post", not that the article was edited. I say likely because as a software engineer I know how thumbnails generally are loaded on sites like these. They're not part of the "post" data, and appear a short while afterwards as the site fetches metadata from the linked site and creates the thumbnail in the background so it doesn't force the user to wait.

I would say maybe snopes can't tell the difference between posting an image vs posting an article and have an automatic system generate the image, but what actually is going to happen is the maga people are going to say "see, I knew the fact checkers were biased. They intentionally make bad faith articles like these"

The platform automatically adds the thumbnail, so it was the platform that posted the symbol, and it was likely added after he posted.

I did not need this meme interrupting me in the middle of athletic.mp3

That sounds like a cool concept. I'll have to look into this "Lemmy" thing.

The AI race ends with everyone running cheap local models and no business being able to profit from them.

He's slacking off at the office, obviously.

Currently at bronze which means it at least starts up, but that's about it.

I still recommend GIMP 3.0 as it has made huge changes that vastly improved user workflow, such as non-destructive editing, multi-layer selection, lower clicks required for each action, etc. It feels much more modern now and non-developer user friendly.

Or you get a windows VM and run your favorite program in that. It works but has a slight performance decrease. You can disable internet access on the VM to prevent telemetry and spyware.
