  No kidding. I know it doesn’t change their point. You could tell by the way I said it doesn’t change their point. The original commenter might not have known it’s to the point of models consuming their own synthetic data. They may have learned something.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Finally a website where you can test if your private key is leaked inspired by haveibeenpwned⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I have some other keys for different things like “service accounts.” But I mainly have one personal key I use for things that need ssh keys.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Grindr CEO Says App Will Be “AI-First” and “Not in the Business of Politics”⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The training sets aren’t all human created. They have models that feed other models training data.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Finally a website where you can test if your private key is leaked inspired by haveibeenpwned⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  My key is used in so many places I’m reluctant to update it. I probably should, even just to use newer crypto standards.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Some people prefer corn for some ungodly reason ⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I was and still am a very picky eater. I’ve started cooking for myself and have become dramatically less picky. However, I’m still not a fan of raw onion. I almost like them more the more they are cooked. I don’t like raw onion, but I love caramelized onion. I guess it’s really I just don’t like the texture of raw onion.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A self-hosted approach to long-term file storage and control⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, I only put specific things their. Management and monitoring things. The services are still local.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A self-hosted approach to long-term file storage and control⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve been using a VPS for a while now. I still maintain it, so it’s very much like self hosting.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A self-hosted approach to long-term file storage and control⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Self hosting can be stretched to mean you’re hosting your own services on a cloud provider.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A self-hosted approach to long-term file storage and control⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Defense in depth for one. It looks like this project is made for protecting your data on cloud storage. I’ve noticed right now there seems to be a lot of projects around using relatively cheap S3 storage solutions.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Self-Host Weekly #150: Watchtower No More⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Just self host the whole thing with Forgejo. I run a few github actions on runners all on my own stuff.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Self-Host Weekly #150: Watchtower No More⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I haven’t used it, but this project looks interesting: github.com/dkorecko/PatchPanda

  It doesn’t just update you containers, it checks the release notes too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hands-On With The Anbernic RG DS; The DSi Reimagined (my review)⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You’ll want a Thor for that. I’ve been using it instead of my N3DS.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨4 reasons Plex is turning into the thing it replaced⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s really not. They handle authentication but then everything is sent to your server.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it true that one of the reasons VHS beat Betamax was porn?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Except wasn’t hddvd cheaper and initially porn was using it?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨IBM CEO says there is 'no way' spending trillions on AI data centers will pay off at today's infrastructure costs⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  A lot of companies. Don’t forget that IBM was ahead of the game with Watson and Watsonx. Also, don’t forget that Red Hat is owned by IBM and OpenShift is getting big in the AI space allowing GPUs to be pooled and workloads to be scheduled dynamically.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨IBM CEO says there is 'no way' spending trillions on AI data centers will pay off at today's infrastructure costs⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sure but they’re in the business of consulting on how to build out that AI platform and the business of providing an AI platform.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tattoo Ink Moves Through the Body, Killing Immune Cells and Weakening Vaccine Response⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s also important to keep on mind that the burden of proof is on something to prove or is safe, not that something is unsafe. It happening to human cells in mice would have me assume it happens to human cells in humans until proven otherwise (that’s the null hypothesis in this situation). But also I don’t have a tattoo or any interest in getting one so I’m not too bothered by this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Immich Is Now Stable!⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Okay, you’re missing out on one of the best new self hosted services because of a knee jerk reaction in that case.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why a new Steam Machine when the first ones flopped? Because this time, Valve say, it'll actually have games⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The GabeCube.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PC Master Race⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You can blame crypto, you can blame AI, but when it comes down to it everything is worth what people are willing to pay. Clearly companies are pushing that further and further and people keep paying.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PC Master Race⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There was a generation where it was true at the launch of the console. That’s the period I’m talking about. Beating a 5 year old machine is hardly worth bragging about.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I only knew one person that had one. He worked for Microsoft.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PC Master Race⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That was a brief period when consoles were way over priced for the components they had.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨There was no need to ever improve upon THIS⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So, even better argument for auto climate control. Set it once when you first get in your car and are still parked, then leave it. However, yes buttons please. If this meme is about buttons vs touch screen, then I strongly agree with the meme. My vehicle not only has the auto climate, but also it is using buttons. They’re stupid capacitive touch buttons that Hyundai has since switched back away from, but at least they’re always in the same spot and I don’t have to change any screens to access them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨There was no need to ever improve upon THIS⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Hard disagree with this. Climate control has become a must for me since the early 2000s. Set and forget is always better than fiddling with things. And now my current car has three levels of automatic so it doesn’t go full blast at the beginning, it’s amazing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Banana⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Wrapper is totally biodegradable. Just toss it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Banana⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  “Real bananas”? Aren’t they basically all the same strain of Cavendish?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They say remote working less productive⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That can certainly depend on the lunch. Usually in the morning I would do idling tasks like checking email and just simple stuff. I would be hungry and mostly just waiting for lunch. Thinking about that now, I wonder if it would be different now that I’m taking GLP1. That’s that “food noise” that gets muted. I would always take the earliest possible lunch and then come back ready to knock some stuff out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They say remote working less productive⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Nah, I was most productive for maybe a few hours after lunch.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reddit stock falls for second day as references to its content in ChatGPT responses plummet⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You keep trying to throw out all the data because some is bad. I don’t think these companies would be paying that much for all bad data. You seem to really want to justify some bias you have. It’s really weird.
