- Comment on YSK rice commonly contains arsenic, but most of it can be removed by boiling in water (4:1 ratio) for 5 minutes, and discarding that water before starting the regular cook cycle with fresh water. 2 months ago:
Let’s do the math. Rice contains about 0.4 mg/kg As by weight. The “bad” rice in Louisiana or whatever contains about 75% more - about 0.7 mg/kg. Let’s round up to 1 mg/kg to make the math easy. Chronic exposure limits for a 50 kg adult are about 5 mg/day (on the low end).
So you’d have to choke down a full 10 lb bag of rice every day (about 110 cups of cooked rice) to start to tip the scales. Other sources of arsenic, like groundwater, are likely far more significant.

- Comment on SearNGX should be a federated search engine 3 months ago:
One of the things that can get annoying about searxng is that often search engines will rate limit if a lot of people are using one searxng instance. Maybe a “federated” approach would be, if results are rate limited -> send query to another trusted searx instance -> receive the results and send back to user. That way, people can stick to their favorite searxng instance without having to manually change their instance if the search engines were rate limiting.

I hate fourth of july because of this. Fuck your declaration of independence, i piss on it. My dog hid under the bed. I fed her some chicken hearts to calm her down, and received many belly rubs.

Recommend doing a jellyfin server with an *arr stack! Prowlarr, radarr, sonarr, plus qbittorrent. Bonus if you can integrate i2p in there so you don’t have to rely on a VPN :)
there’s also Nextcloud AIO docker. I use it to sync my photos and escape Apple’s 5gb max free-tier backup
Maybe add some assorted services like an invidious instance, Searxng instance?
Welcome to the self hosting rabbit hole!

Unrelated question. What’s a video card that can transcode AV1? I want to add more AV1s to my jellyfin server but i’d need at least a nvidia RTX 4060 if i want AV1 transcoding >_<

- Comment on LibreY vs SearXNG, which one do you suggest and why? 9 months ago:
I love me a no-js, simple search engine 😋
I’ve only ever self-hosted SearxNG but i wanna try out LibreY. As for who gets rate-linited less, if you self host for yourself plus some friends i’d be surprised if you have Google rate limiting your searches. I didn’t run a problem with mine anyways.

- Comment on Meta admits using pirated books to train AI, but won't pay for it 10 months ago:
Thank you for your comment, I think there’s a meaningful discussion to be had here. US “law” is meant to legitimize the ruling class and serve to protect their interests. In this case, copyright law, meant to legitimize the control of US media corporations on intellectual property, is actually hindering their reach and access to materials that can train their AI models. In any case, this is going against the spirit of what the law is made for, which is to protect corporations.
Law isn’t made from a vacuum. Law is written by the ruling class passed and minted by the ruling class. I did not remember voting for any copyright law (the US is not a direct democracy), and therefore the law is imposed to us.
So, you are correct, we are at a crossroads. More specifically, corporations are. Will they lobby to be an exception to copyright laws so they can continue training on copyrighted data, or will they weaken copyright laws enough so that their actions will be deemed legal?
My take is that since their models are trained from copyrighted data made by the people, the access to their models and its predictions / inferences must also be made accessible to the people. Of course they will not do that, so they will fight the hardest to be able to train on the most amount of public data while giving the fruits of that data only to the paying customers. The classic “socialize the losses, privatize the gains” trick that capitalists use.
anyway fuck capitalism fuck AI fuck this rant I’m high af

Most crypto coin websites promoting their shit have sleek AF ui’s. Maybe it’s just a matter of where your priorities lie; making the actual open source product, or promoting it on a website? And most small teams that actually make useful shit would probably just have a GitHub readme or at most a wiki. With some exceptions. But at least for me philosophically, a sleek website ui promoting a project does not equal the quality of the project
