• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lemmy votes ARE public, should they be anonymous?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  All it takes is some API calls and some simple python scripting and you could data mine a person. Maybe they subconsciously only upvote LGBT posts. Maybe they downvote leftwing posts.

  Then, oops, one day they post something that can doxx them and now they’re getting targeted ads or worst case a stalker or someone who wants to get them fired/thrown in jail.

  Now imagine a machine learning algorithm or AI has done all the data mining and it took just a couple days to work through all users on lemmy.world.

  If there’s any data that could be used to make money someone will eventually try it.

  If you know plex it’s the same thing just open source.

  But they are just video player front ends for your media libray

  I wonder if it’s actually interpreting the bookshelf or if having such a busy background is taking a toll on the compression. That would alter the details on the person’s face

  Sever your spinal cord so your body is paralyzed. Then you won’t have to worry about pain.

  This would be a wild situation though. Feels like human centipede levels of wild

  Are there any good voyager 2 documentaries that anyone would recommend? Looking at the pic of Neptune and damn it’s crazy that they sent them so far and got great results

  All having references to be able to hold many containers/weapons

  Nah nah nah, it’ll instantly blind you. You gottasave your sight to see the mushroom and fire storm

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lemmy Active Users looking good⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Speculation on this graph alone, I would say that students being off/people avoiding family gave the bump in December. And I’d expect another bump in May/June as Summer starts

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you manage your server files?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sftp using the KDE file browser Dolphin. Keeps it simple for my monkey brain as if I’m accessing the drive locally.

  4.39?!? Fuck that’s so much. Granted I used to drink the powder mix so I’m used to those prices

  They want the land and the $500 billion worth of natural gas in the sea

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Samsung joins Google in RCS shaming Apple⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The color is one part, the other is that it breaks functions in iMessage. So the elitism doubles up

  Apple BLASTED for overheating issues on the iPhone 15. Apple SLAMMED Instagram for bugs. Consumers FLAILED by headlines
