This work builds off a previous paper in which the researchers explored harms that can occur when one uses deterministic systems at scale. They found that using a machine-learning model to deterministically allocate resources can amplify inequalities that exist in training data, which can reinforce bias and systemic inequality.

#VLCPlayer could use a better #randomisation when playing a playlist on random. Too many episodes come up on repeat, selection seems heavily #biased to the earlier entries in the list.

There is something that #music software manufacturers have against #randomisation functions. Meanwhile, randomize buttons are everywhere. But it's hard to define what you don't want to randomise or whether you can operate the button by automation. and this is such a strong feature for any producer.

you cant have it all :(

TRICK FOR PICKING random searx instances.

1) Bookmark 36 #searx instances, mapping six to SX1, another six to SX2, etc.

2) Use a six-sided pen like a dice by rolling it on your desk, twice. Once to pick SX1-6 and again to pick which bookmark in the list.

3) Happy #searxing over #Tor and #I2P!
