Ahh i inwo u can do some fancy tricks to spell words inside ur ipv6 addresses apalrd did a good video on migrating to ipv6

Debian used to be so good. What happened!? (lemmy.world)

Firefox on Debian stable is so old that websites yell at you to upgrade to a newer browser. And last time I tried installing Debian testing (or was it debian unstable?), the installer shat itself trying to make the bootloader. After I got it to boot, apt refused to work because of a missing symlink to busybox. Why on earth do...

muntedcrocodile ,

I use debian headless as a server never had any issues but then again pretty much any linux system is gonna be a decent server since everything is containerised now.

muntedcrocodile ,

Heres a great idea write a frontend that u can type a human request in then pass that to chatgpt to generate an appropriate sql query then automatically send it. What could possibly go wrong.

muntedcrocodile ,

If u make privacy illegal then only criminals will have privacy.

"Moderation tools are nonexistent on here. It also eats up storage like crazy [...] The software is downright frustrating to work with" - Can any other instance admins relate to this?

After a year online the free speech-focused instance ‘Burggit’ is shutting down. Among other motivations, the admins point to grievances with the Lemmy software as one of the main reasons for shutting down the instance. In a first post asking about migrating to Sharkey, one of the admins states:...

How does piefed compare python/flask is far easyer to develop I really think moving away from developer with such extreme politics is a good idea.

muntedcrocodile ,

I think content really should be served on a p2p basis recon it would improve robustness and reduce load on servers also would stop the whole ip vote association. I believe thats how peertube serves its videos but i dont see why it can’t be extended to serve all media

muntedcrocodile ,

The security issues are minimised compared to havibg a centralised instance. And yeah some ISP may block/rate limit thats why net neutrality is so important.

muntedcrocodile ,

It means that each actor can only expose themselves to a subset (more peers less people) of the total network. As opposed to the current situation where u can collect information on more people as a singular actor. But yes you do expose yourself to the peers you connect to.

muntedcrocodile ,

Wasn’t he part of MK-Ultra so isnt the government is probably to blame for some of his antics

muntedcrocodile ,

Money yes fame hell no it used to be seen as the curse of greatness now its seen as the goal idk what’s wrong with people.

muntedcrocodile ,

Blockchain also has problems its solving I recon the whole not bullshit was a psyop by thr us government cos finances that they couldn’t have absolute control over would allow the people to bs free. I recon monero is the best as of present especially since its actually anonymous payments.

muntedcrocodile ,

Sounds like this is will foss models. This is why all the bug tech companies are pushing ai dangerous narrative they gonna legislate away our freedom for moss models to keep hold of a monopoly. This is how liberty dies with thunderous applause.

muntedcrocodile ,

Some are foss in the sence its free. But u do have a point.

muntedcrocodile ,

I believe some may reach that and it does set a significant limit on capability of foss.

muntedcrocodile ,

One day humanity will reach for the stars and bring our little friend home.

muntedcrocodile ,

Where arw my raptor feathers. They are objectively the coolest dinosaur!

muntedcrocodile ,

Does it have tool use? What language is it? Does it use langchain?

muntedcrocodile ,

I wrote this github.com/muntedcrocodile/Sydney

Been having decent success with it but gotta implement proper document embedding.

muntedcrocodile ,

I believe there is some work being done on an alternative code base written in python with flask it has lots of promise and i recon with a bit of extra work it might allow for mastodon integration into one server which would be cool af.

Really want to get to the stage where an account is just a private key I hold and all federated services can work with a single username.

Imagine having a single username which is for all services.

muntedcrocodile ,

Apple has its llm’s running locally. Thats a huge win I hope that sets a standard i really hope someone make an android app thats foss that can do something simmillar.

muntedcrocodile ,

Does copilot use chatgpt thats not local. And thats why we need a good foss ai ecosystem.

muntedcrocodile ,

But android doesnt run the llm locally. Can someone please make a foss app that can do simmillar things.

muntedcrocodile ,

The point of a local llm is u can give it access to contacts notes app control fucking everything simmillar to whaf apples done cool app tho.

muntedcrocodile ,

Long answer ask a geologist. Short answer water.

muntedcrocodile ,

U not suggesting we ban teachers from voluntarily disclosing information that sounds like a recipe for disaster.

muntedcrocodile ,

The primary purpose of a company is to make the shareholders happy if he’s doing that then i guess what’s there to complain about

muntedcrocodile ,

Ur getting a censored experience the censorship they have locally is hardcore.

muntedcrocodile OP ,

Thats not comforting. I checked the documentation and that seems to think its federated. I heard that .ml is selectively federating the modlog is that perhaps what’s going on if so idk why its still effecting other instances?

muntedcrocodile ,

Surly there exists some artificial material that perfectly mimics the properties without degrading.

muntedcrocodile ,

Maybe ceramic pellets could work as well surly it would help both sides of the pillow be cold.

muntedcrocodile ,

Just cos something is around forever doesnt mean its bad. I mean rocks exist practically forever. If plastic didnt disrupt ur bodies chemistry then there really wouldnt be much problem letting it exist in the environment forever.

muntedcrocodile ,

Hey ADHD out of sight out of mind does have some up sides I guess

Is Craigslist Dying?

I went to Craigslist in my local area for the first time in awhile. I used to like “best of” Craigslist because some of them were great, there still are some, but its just not the same. A community I used to visit had about half the number of posts as I remember, and of jobs and things for sale, I would say roughly half the...

muntedcrocodile ,

How does automatic hastag inclusion work?

muntedcrocodile , (edited )

Thats cool I guess seems that will help mastodon federation a lot. I dont see why we can’t add arbitrary hashtags for general post tagging tho.

muntedcrocodile , (edited )

Thats a lot of data but surly its not all their articles cos I’d very much like to train mixtral7x8b on it along with 4chan data and shir from the dark web. Surly there is a project where such a model is public and being trained on literally everything regardless of legality.

EDIT: why am i getting downvoted?

muntedcrocodile ,

They are very good they exceed the capability of many humans in many tasks. If consume energy = bad for environment then all electric vehicles are bullshit cos they have energy inefficiencies that petrol cars don’t (thermodynamics is a bitch). U do realise the argument about if asking an ai to create an image is art argument is literally the same argument that was had about if photography is art.

Llm are decently trustworthy especially with chain of thought reasoning and tool capabilities. And they are extraordinarily useful people wouldnt be using them and creating a market for them of they weren’t. I can’t train my brain then share it for free to everyone on the internet to download I can with an ai tho.

muntedcrocodile ,

I like to think of .world as a introduction point for the fediverse. I think it should be trigger happy with defederation to keep the instance approachable by the mainstream then let people choose other instances based on what they offer.

I moved to lemm.ee cos they d9nt defederate from many people and that aligns with my whole ideology on free speach.

muntedcrocodile ,

U can export and import pfp and followed communities etc but not votes or posts.

muntedcrocodile ,

Its the fediverse nothing ever gets deleted its shared across all federated peers its the one downside to moving away from centralisation.

muntedcrocodile ,

I haven’t yet I like to argue with them I know I can’t win cos winning an argument requires the opposition is intelligent enough to apply logic but its still entertaining.

muntedcrocodile ,

People regardless of race exhibit what’s commonly known as self awareness u can test self awareness with a mirror. Ducks and geese do not recognise their own reflection they are therefore not self aware. Same as a tree or a rock or something of equally low intelligence such as urself. Never said it was moral and calling them diseased is just factually wrong, Tortured sure but stop lying it makes everything else u say less impact full.

Now stop appealing to emotion cos its easy to ignore give me some actually facts and maybe I’ll give a shit.

muntedcrocodile ,

Because as a species there are absolutely zero ducks and geese who exhibit this behaviour.

”Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them.

In this formulation, I do not imply, for instance, that we should always suppress the utterance of intolerant philosophies; as long as we can counter them by rational argument and keep them in check by public opinion, suppression would certainly be unwise. " - Karl Popper

The only reason u see them constantly dunking on everyone is because all the truthfull factual backed up with evidence replies they get get censored if it has a single thing to do the hexbear or .ml. Idk how they do it but a replete to .ml on a .world community can be censored by .ml but replete to that censored comment still work fine. .ml selectively federates the modlog as well to hide admin abuse. They will ban u from every .ml community for 1 comment disagreeing politically especially if u have evidance proving them wrong.

We have tried countering them by rational argument and public opinion but that is failing. We canot tolerate the intolerance of tankies ob lemmy.
