They have neither confirmed or denied it being a trans allegory.

In an interview with one of the directors, Lilly Wachowsk, she had this to say:

Continuing on The Matrix**, you confirmed a couple years ago that it was a trans allegory —**

No, I didn’t.

You didn’t? Tell me more.

Yeah, so that came from an interview I did for Disclosure. They had a bunch of Matrixquestions. And the question they asked me was about Switch, who was originally written as a trans character who was male in the real world and female in the matrix. And they took that response and attached the question that everyone now references that it’s a trans allegory. And so it was slightly out of context, but I don’t sit here and put a stink up about it, because it is a trans allegory in that it was written by two closeted trans women. And so all of the things that are in it are super-duper trans. The idea of transformation, even the whole “My name is Neo, Mr. Anderson —” that idea of claiming identity, it’s undeniable.

You can uninstall a lot of Apple’s apps that come preinstalled on an iPhone. Not all of them, but a surprising amount.

This is bait

Protect your hearing. Listen to loud music in moderation and use earplugs in loud environments.

Jean creamer. Even the cheap stuff works wonders.

I find the Samples (what I’m assuming you’re referring to by saying “shorts”) feature actually kinda useful for discovering new music. I flip through it every few months to hear snippets of recent hits or what YouTube might think I’d be interested in without committing to listening to an entire song.

Meta Quest 3. I had been saving for a Valve Index but I was getting impatient. Turns out it was an amazing buy and (for me personally) having an untethered headset was more important than I realized. My computer room is small but my living room has plenty of space. Plus the Steam Link app works so well nowadays I can still play Steam VR games but wirelessly anywhere in my house. Pretty awesome deal for something that costed half the price.

Is it possible to implement a perfect guardrail on an AI model such that it will never ever spit out a certain piece of information? I feel like these models are so complex that you can always eventually find the perfect combination of words to circumvent any attempts to prevent prompt injection.

It’s likely because the Quest runs Android and we already have Android ports of San Andreas, which would have expedited things theoretically.

I had one too. My ex and I are on great terms. It makes for some fun moments when we can joke about our divorce and make people uncomfortable.

Garry isn’t even technically building an engine from scratch, right? I thought S&box is heavily modified Source 2.

Someone on Lemmy did a markdown test of all existing Lemmy apps and posted the results. Raccoon was one of the worst performers, and after seeing the results the dev went nuclear. I’ll see if I can find the post.

Let’s say a user decides to download an app from the Play store but the app contains code that is malicious or harmful, users are protected by Google Play Protect which is a security feature that scans apps for malware and other threats.

Then why was that app approved for distribution on the Play Store

They should open up the consoles to have the ability to run full versions of Windows, I bet that would boost sales a little bit.

You forgot the constant Linux fellating

my body is a machine that turns piss into piss

The FTC is specifically pissed that Microsoft was allowed to acquire Activision and then this price increase happened. It flies in the face of all the shit MS said wouldn’t happen to get the merger approved.
