I just accept our fate.

Humanity will probably realize we seriously fucked up around 2050 and near the end of the century mass migration will lead to a death count much bigger than WW2 or the chinese civil wars.

The only grace is that most of us reading this thread will die from various reason before the second stage.

I will still do my part by reducing my CO2 footprint but unless we find some miracle technology producing nuclear power plant levels of energy for the cost of a charcoal power plant, shitty world leaders and corporations will ruin everything for fake wealth.

Irisos ,

Let’s not forget the unmentioned income thanks to gathering all that user data.

The real value of Youtube (and social medias in general) is not the raw revenue they generate.

It’s being able to be able to predict what will trend in advance to sell ads to anyone, anywhere. Which is proven by their 200+ billions in revenue from ads from all services.

It’s extremely likely that in an alternate universe where Google doesn’t own YouTube, their profit today is lower than what they currently have.

But like you said, poor YouTube is not making money explicitly on its own so they’ll use it to justify any cost increase attempt when they already know what the real money maker is.

Which task would be ideal for an LLM such as chatGPT?

Here’s some context for the question. When image generating AIs became available, I tried them out and found that the results were often quite uncanny or even straight up horrible. I ended up seeing my fair share of twisted fingers, scary faces and mutated abominations of all kinds....

Generating a large amount of utterances to train your cloud service language model for a bot because I’m sure not writing hundreds of utterances all asking for the same thing.

For development, I have a single image per project tagged “dev” running locally in WSL that I overwrite over and over again.

For real builds, I use pipelines on my Azure DevOps server to build the image on an agent using a remote buildkit container and push it in my internal repository. All 3 components hosted in the same kubernetes cluster.

The Kids Online Safety Act is Still A Huge Danger to Our Rights Online. (www.eff.org)

The Kids Online Safety Act is Still A Huge Danger to Our Rights Online.::Congress has resurrected the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA), a bill that would increase surveillance and restrict access to information in the name of protecting children online. KOSA was introduced in 2022 but failed to gain traction, and today its authors,...

They could implement restrictions to block VPN traffic. But that would be repealed as fast as it came when these very congressmen would phone angrily their district on why they can work from their million dollar home anymore.

Support: Sorry VPNs are now blocked and you cannot work remotely without them

Congressman: Who are the idiots that voted for these laws

Support: Well, you and your friends

Minecraft's recent EULA changes place heavy restrictions on Java servers (twitter.com)

Just spreading awareness about whatever the fuck Mojang thinks they’re doing. Given their enforcement of the EULA, or the lack thereof, this probably isn’t going to have as huge of an impact, but I think it’s still something worth talking about....

Irisos ,

Even if they updated to a new version, the hack clients developers would probably just update their custom clients to ignore Mojang’s server ban list and call it a day.

The new EULA is a joke and it’s easier to tell everyone to use a third party client (which is most of the time better than the official one) than try to abide to them.

It’s fine. He just exchanged trademarks with Egosoft twitter.com/EGOSOFT/status/1683477783584858115 so he is in the clear 👍

If it is using chatgpt as a backend, my guess is that they are using Azure OpenAI and know what they are doing.

Azure OpenAI allows you to turn off abuse monitoring and content filtering if you have legitimate reasons to do so.

It would be very hard for a malicious actor to get the approval to turn off both using a front company. But if one would manage to do it, they could create such malicious chatGPT service with little to no chance to be found out.

Irisos ,

How is that a rip off? You pay 20€ once and get the ability to sideload any UWP app and develop for the console.

Compare it to both Nintendo and Sony where:

  • You have to pay multiple times the price of the console for the dev kit
  • You don’t own said dev kit
  • Their SDKs are not publicly accessible
  • You have to sign multiple NDAs on top of all those issues
  • Assuming you have no problem with all this, you can be rejected as a developer for any reason

Considering how locked consoles were and still are (Except for the PS3 “other OS”) period. Being able to get a decent current gen console, that doubles as an emulator, with development capabilities for an additional 20 euros is a gift, not a rip-off.

Irisos ,

In addition, Facebook already had support for XMPP at some point in time but killed it.

Why? Because they couldn't dry users off other platforms after Google closed their own support for XMPP.

Even if Meta "play nice", we already know their aim. Siphon users off mastodon and then remove activityPub support when most servers are on life support from loss of users.

Show them this video and tell them this is what happens when you neglect your teeths. https://libreddit.domain.glass/r/popping/comments/py6qlw/teeth_cleaning_i_feel_this_was_the_most/

Nearly nobody will get a mouth that bad if they at least care to look at their teeths from time to time and have a basic hygiene, both dietary and oral.

But to at least get them interested, this video does the work really well.

(The video shows removal of a massive plaque of tartar. So I don't recommend anyone uncomfortable, with looking at the inside of mouths and with seeing some bleeding, to watch this video)

Irisos ,

It’s really good. There are some issues here and there like some games not launching when using upscaling or some non default settings.

But otherwise, most games run on it and better than on PS3 with recent CPUs.

Irisos ,

If you are not using any HA feature and only put servers into the same cluster for ease of management.

You could use the same command but with a value of 1.

The reason quorum exist is to prevent any server to arbitrarily failover VMs when it believes the other node(s) is down and create a split brain situation.

But if that risk does not exist to begin with, so do the quorum.

Irisos ,

Probably the best one I have found so far.

By the way, do you have any plan to expose an API or daily extract of the data you have?

While those websites are useful for manual searches, I think it would benefit the feddiverse much more if there was a way to integrate all those lists into an app. At least without resorting to web scrapping.

Irisos ,

Thank you for the information I’ll definitely check that out.
