How utterly performative of him. Brave brave Ro Khanna, the leader who can garner no real support! Woe is Ro! Please send $85 now to help FIGHT the injustice of Donald Trump

Not as much as letting them hit your database, load your images and video through a CDN would
- Comment on TrueNAS Scale, hard disks, and pools 2 weeks ago:
If you shut down the computer gracefully first before you power the disks off of should be ok more often than not, but you really should try to have everything on the same system so this can all be coordinated by the OS and the hardware.
As others have said, avoid powering the disks off before the OS has had a chance to shut down or your disks will NOT be in a recoverable state when everything comes back online.
I’m not even sure the setup you are describing would benefit at all from a different storage method, even “regular” writes could be in memory or controller buffers. External drives are not meant to have their power cut.
- Comment on The small scale of Lemmy's active user base is never more evident than in the absence of active members in all the sports related communities. 2 weeks ago:
That pattern is 100% bots getting the posts from an RSS feed and it’s set to only refresh every x hours.
When it does and it has 15 new stories, it rapidly posts 15 times.
When those clog up my all feed, instant block. So it’s really having the opposite effect that the bot owner intends.
The shitty thing is that half the time they’re not even marked as bot accounts.
- Comment on The small scale of Lemmy's active user base is never more evident than in the absence of active members in all the sports related communities. 2 weeks ago:
The point is that most people won’t participate in a community that’s the same bot, posting headlines over and over, with 1 upvote and 0 comments, day in and day out. I’ve blocked so many of those (especially the ones who’s RSS feed only refreshes like once a day and they vomit like 30 stories at once into some community that shows up in my All feed blocking out everything else for miles of scrolling.)
You need users expressing their interest via posting. It’s community editorializing that makes platforms like this interesting, from Slashdot and Fark all the way to Lemmy today.
- Comment on YSK You don't need Teflon pans for nonstick 2 weeks ago:
PFOA is one of the most prominent forever-chemicals and has polluted every single living creature on earth (including you). PFTE is another one.
PFOA causes tumors and has been found in 100% of the places (including living creatures) that is has been tested for. Every human, every animal, every river, every forest, every senior, every newborn.
The real “tinfoil hat” is how we let them get away with it. Oh? They had money and were in America? You don’t say.
- Comment on Spotify caught hosting hundreds of fake podcasts that advertise selling drugs 2 weeks ago:
Enshittification is not when Spotify doesn’t immediately notice and purge new uploads with scam content.
Enshittification is when Spotify takes away the free-tier, or makes the ad-free tier have limited ads while raising the price.
- Comment on UK ministers to block amendment requiring AI firms to declare use of copyrighted content 3 weeks ago:
“Your honor, BitTorrent is an AI neural network now. Therefore these movies and games I’ve downloaded over it are recreations by an AI and therefore are no longer subject to copyright in any jurisdiction.”
- Comment on Company Regrets Replacing All Those Pesky Human Workers With AI, Just Wants Its Humans Back 3 weeks ago:
Generalized LLMs like ChatGPT are. If you train a model on your own documentation then all it “knows” is what is in the docs and it can perform very well at finding relevant results. It’s just kind of a context-aware search engine at that point.
The problem again is that companies mostly aren’t doing that, they’re trying to replace humans with ChatGPT.

I hated on it for so long, but i eventually came around and i kinda like it now.
It is still the worst In the Series lol
- Comment on Mario Kart 64 got finally decompiled! 3 weeks ago:
That was already possible. This lets the game run natively on a modern PC, as long as you supply your legally backed up rom image of your N64 cartridge of the game.

This is not a romhack or a tool for romhacking. This lets the game run natively, on current PC hardware.

Honestly I think if Proxmox got VMWare money then they’d become stuffed to the gills with business sharks and probably go the same route eventually.
That is not a Proxmox problem, that is a capitalism problem.

They’ll always hunger for more.
- Comment on xAI Dev Leaks API Key for Private SpaceX, Tesla LLMs – Krebs on Security 4 weeks ago:
Generic models are not ready yet and won’t ever be but my company is using something from AWS called “Q” I think (heh, great name this day in age) but because it performs training rounds on a set of documents you define (like process documentation) its actually pretty good at finding exactly the information and suggesting additional reading. We’re using it on a process guide of a couple hundred pages; not sure how it scales to other sizes or what the cost is.
- Comment on xAI Dev Leaks API Key for Private SpaceX, Tesla LLMs – Krebs on Security 4 weeks ago:
I do not think that even Elon has enough power at SpaceX to force them to design next-generation rockets using Large Language Models. Engineers know better than that. Their next rocket wouldn’t even make it off the pad.

I know the hogs are making us look so bad that we might never recover; but please keep in mind that we don’t fucking ALL want that. I’d be willing to bet not even a majority.
We are, however, asleep at the wheel, held hostage by our financial and employment situation, or both
