I’ve been using OVH without issues. How big is your drive space though? Lemmy uses quite a bit. Federation can take some time too.

cowsay is still my favourite package

I tried, but I like information density and the new UI is a horrible waste of space. I get why people like it and it’s way more modern, I’m saying loads of people who used reddit from the start will probably never get used to the new UI, mostly because of the customizability and open API.

Reddit didn’t have apps in the beginning, so we made them over the years perfecting the UI. I settled on baconreader with a compact view, but it and so many others died when the API was purged. I patched my app and can still use it to this day, but I don’t because fuck them.

Same, my mouth dropped reading the article.

Obligatory fuck spez

Don’t be so cynical, and the value you put on tradition is an entirely personal thing. Valentines day has been celebrated for hundreds of years as well so it’s by definition a tradition.

We spread out days throughout the year to put emphasis on the people who are dear to us, ofcourse we should show them every single day, but it’s not a bad thing to highlight a day of the year.

And since you’ve decided it’s only about consumerism, let me give you a few ways to go above and beyond for you partner without having to resort to consumerism:

• Learning a skill related to your SO
• Revisiting a place or activity you enjoyed together, maybe throw in a well prepared picnic
• Growing your own flowers in advance
• Cooking a meal which is difficult and high effort to make

The amount of value placed in a day like today depends on relationship, but saying it’s only about consumerism is such a big cop-out.

The way AI is trained today creates a black box solution, the author says only the developers of the model know what goes on inside the black box.

This is major pain point in AI, where we are trying to understand it so we can make it better and more reliable. The author mentions that unless AI companies open source their work, it’s impossible for everyone else to ‘debug’ the circuit.

Zero knowledge proofs are how they are trying to combat this, using mathematical algorithms they are trying to verify the output of an AI model in real time, without having to know the underlying intellectual property.

This could be used to train AI further and increase the reliability of AI drastically, so it could be used to make more important decisions and adhere much more easily to the strategies for which they are deployed.

It doesn’t have to know, the processed data that is regulated is about much more than just our participation in the Fediverse. Like ip’s, analytical, usage data and so on, things that are only shared between you and your lemmy instance. That’s what’s awesome about self hosting.

Participation could fall under the same laws as email, all the other data is yours. And as another user suggested, self hosting your instance and currating federation is probably fine. I’m not a lawyer this is not legal advice

It’s a regulation thing I would assume, processing under age data is heavily regulated everywhere so any social media that goes for 13+ probably has a team of lawyers.

I feel like most the old school redditors have long migrated, I’ve only ever heard good things about the new UI from relatively new users.

Lemmy is old reddit, if not OG internet ethos.

Sure yeah it’s a discovery tool OOTB, but I’ve used it to perform specific packet sequences as well.

Also does anyone still port knock these days?

Enter Masscan, probably a net negative for the internet, so use with care.

Hey YouTube, today we’re testing this photon detector I found browsing ebay that was sold by some friendly russians. It’s been collecting dust for 10 years but due to some recent developments it’s as relevant as ever! Now I’ll be able to see the feds coming from miles away!

Any word on the screen? Would be sad if it wasn’t OLED but it wouldn’t surprise me if they wanted to cut cost for the base model.

I hate how often Discord is mentioned as a viable alternative, how that is even remotely close to a link-aggregator fora is beyond me.

Not at all, but I am craving Cinnabon™

Lemmy has a 3 character minimum though

Who wants a short instance name D:

I’ll do some reading, any recommendations would be appreciated!

Religion to me has always seemed as a way to create order in a seemingly orderless world, rationality set aside. I like philosophy for this reason, although it can be very pretentious.

Religion, mythology and probably anything mystical. It’s very easy why people believe in them, they’re so alluring and genuinely wish they had truth to them. Unfortunately the only truth to be found is ancient wisdom, and even that can be very iffy sometimes.

I guess the equivalent would be creating a new account on reddit.com

I think that’s called stockholm syndrome

I’m kidding, because I felt the same when I was new here. Account age and karma are treated like valuable currency over there, glad that’s not a thing on lemmy, and for good reason.
