Once it's already progressed to a blame game, the answer is usually: it's not constructive or productive (any more). You need to find another way to escape the dynamics. Once people are set on an opinion, repeating the same stuff doesn't add anything. It just makes everyone feel worse. Usually for both parties.
I think that's philosophy of science. We humans don't have absolute truth. We're just on this world and trying to figure out stuff. Our way to do it is science. And the way it works is by forming models. We observe and describe. And choose a name for the phenomenon. That's all done by us.
"Energy" is a scientific term. And as such, it's part of a model. A model made by us to describe what happens in the real world.
And we can use science to figure out whether things emerge from underlying things. I think with energy, a lot of that is just a measuring unit. Something being higher (potential energy) or hotter (thermal energy) or an electric field are real things. Wikipedia calls energy a "quantitative property". But propery just means we can measure it. Not that it's a direct force or attribute of some particle or something like that.
I'm not sure if your word "concept" is a good choice here. Energy is kind of a description of what happens and a way to quantify it. There are underlying processes(?). They add up in that way, so it's a useful description on a higher level. But that's kind what we do. I call mayself a human, while I'm really an agglomeration of atoms, physical and chemical processes...
Thx, that's helpful.
Can you give us some more information on what's false?
Good question. I don't have an answer to that. Maybe someone else has, but I guess there aren't that many out there with a music catalogue like this. There are several smaller services which show up on Google. But I don't have any experience with them. And there is Apple, Tidal... But I don't know what they pay forward to artists.
Spotify is based in Sweden. Though, they're ripping off artists, too.
It means AI can recite information from a domain that PhD-level people are concerned with. This doesn't mean it can draw correct conclusions, rephrase emails properly or do any heavy-lifting like come up with computer code beyond boilerplate templates and tech-demos. It's mainly just hype. AI is useful. But not very bright as of today.
And how does the "manmade" tie into that? Did we make the photons? Exert the force or did we do something that brought force into existence?
I guess we can't answer OP's question, then. That's too unspecific. Something gets exchanged, true. Is that man-made? Likely false, but depends on what we're talking about.
Ja, deswegen verwunderte der Artikel mich etwas, der wie früher, komplett auf frühkindliche Ereignisse fokussiert ist. Wenn sich seit Freud etwas getan hat, fände ich es ganz nett das irgendwie einzuordnen.
So, what would it be a medium of, then? I mean money is a medium of exchange. And by your logic, energy is a medium of ____ ???
I think it's a waste of time. It doesn't really add anything. If you don't want to lose your subscription in the unlikely event that your server/instance goes down forever, just use the export feature to make occasional backups. You can always create a new account after something happened. No need to invest that time otherwise.
You're free to use sockpuppets though. Or if you're moderating stuff or participate in instances/communities who don't federate.
Hat Freud vor 120 Jahren auch schon gesagt.
Well, it's a mass-produced, embedded device, designed to do one specific task. I guess lots of the video related stuff is assisted by hardware and they usually strip down the embedded Linux to the minimum needed. Because every Megabyte of storage costs extra and they need to hit some 99,- or 89,- price point. Furthermore, they don't want it to boot for 20 seconds, so these devices generally don't contain any extras. Similar things happen on wifi routers, the ones below $100 usually contain similar amounts of memory (or less). At least the last time I bought one.
In doubt, their customer support is the first "authority" to contact.
Google the product name and Linux. If nothing turns up, you need to find the name of the SoC / processor and google that. Find out if it's supported by Linux and what other people did to install Linux. You might need additional hardware though, like a serial or JTAG adapter and a soldering iron. Plus the required expertise. And I must warn you, that thing has 1 GB of RAM and 256MB(!) of flash storage. You won't be able to do much with those specs. Like a slow FTP server or one small website or a few other tiny services which don't use a lot of resources.
I think so, too. We've seen the big tech companies jump forward to lick the new US government's boots. While the nonprofits haven't done the same. So it seems to me they're still with the people. This also doesn't come as a surprise to me, since they want to do good, or at least something else than make record profit by ripping off people. I'm still using their Free Software. But I will cut down on relying on services hosted in the USA. I mean even if they're a benevolent foundation, they might still be forced to cooperate with law enforcement and I don't want to see my private data end up in Elon Musk's AI or something like that. So I'm either hosting services myself or going to choose a provider and datacenter within the EU. (And I'm not using that many cloud services in the first place.)
Sure, go ahead. Technically it's not 100% correct. I mean lemm.ee wouldn't be your provider, it'd be the people operating the server who provide the service to you... But I think it's close enough. Only issue I can see is the term "provider" usually being used with commercial services. Like a cellphone provider or ISP. So I'm not sure if people start to think this costs $10 a month or something and is run by for-profit businesses... But we also use the word "provider" for free things, so I'm not entirely sure about that. But generally speaking I think we use different terminology because we don't think of the Fediverse as a product.
Wer macht denn noch eingedeutschte Variablen-Namen?
Is there a working Spotify downloader that actually downloads from Spotify?
