I really wish “AI” would die; machine vision and convolutional neural networks used in this application don’t have much to do with the large language models most people think of with the modern incarnation of the term ai

it would also un-shield any site from user generated content, making lemmy instance operators liable. all comment boxes on any site would disappear; the dead internet theory would become a reality overnight within the us

if your in the EU give fairphone a look, over 7 years of updates promised for the fairphone 5 in addition to being one of the more repairable phones out there

regardless of internal politics, the censure of such comments seems like NZ is happy make an appearance as an american lap dog in this light 🙁

the moment that something touched by a human bias exists, “unbiased” is a loaded term devoid of meaning when we are talking about humans and our information

tbh that just reinforces my growing distrust of the direction they are headed

I'd really like to see the mod team removed since they unilaterally took over the community

I wish we would spend that on maintenance and expansion of the electric trolleybuses. Makes more economic sense in comparison to electric battery electric buses. Or spend more on conventional buses and staff, since private car usage is far more environmentally damaging than a diesel bus fleet.

There’s a small army of cookies and local storage data on any of their sites. Private tabs are devoid of cookies and storage data on initial launch which starts YouTube in its default state. Unless you’re clearing cookies and storage every time you visit YouTube they’ll track you.

Soooo close; generally only condenser microphones require bias power, which is called phantom power in the professional audio world. Dynamic, ribbon and piezoelectric microphones do not need phantom power as the movent of the diaphragm directly creates the output voltage that is measured and applying phantom power does nothing, with the exception of ribbon mics which destroy themselves. But yes the 5v bias is the third connector to enable electret condensers microphones to work.

The standard way for guitar or bass amps to be hooked up to a live sound system is via microphones. Buying loud amps just for playing shows is something that should stay in the past. My personal opinion from working shows is the less onstage volume the easier it is to mix front of house and provide good monitor mixes to individual members of the band.
