- Comment on Is there a real, actually working way to earn money online without having a job? 6 days ago:
I mean I think anything you do that makes enough money to be worth it is just a job at that point right? Like you could start streaming on twitch or something, but once you start making money from it, it becomes a job.
- Comment on Mozilla’s new CEO is doubling down on an AI future for Firefox 1 week ago:
I feel like mozilla could switch to making all their decisions by flipping a coin and do better than they’re doing in recent years
- Comment on Valve: HDMI Forum Continues to Block HDMI 2.1 for Linux 2 weeks ago:
Console manufacturers all just need to switch to displayport to encourage tv manufacturers to do the same. No one’s going to not buy a ps6 or steam machine because they have to use a little dp-hdmi adapter, but they might be a little more likely to choose a tv that doesn’t need an adapter over one that does
- Comment on How One Uncaught Rust Exception Took Out Cloudflare 5 weeks ago:
It’s crazy that cloudflare of all people even had unwrap enabled. Whenever I use unwrap in some tiny little not important thing I always treat it as a temporary thing that I need to come back and fix before the software is actually ready for anyone to seriously use

You could make the world’s worst computer cluster, that could be fun. I think there are several open source tools for doing clustering
- Comment on YSK: there's a lite version of DuckDuckGo 2 months ago:
If it was starbucks it would be like cramplestiltskin size or something not medium
- Comment on YSK: there's a lite version of DuckDuckGo 2 months ago:
There’s also a medium version that’s heavier than that but lighter than the default UI html.duckduckgo.com

And more importantly, shrimp and lobsters aren’t even insects in the first place
- Comment on Can Mac apps be emulated and run on Windows? 2 months ago:
I thought WSL1 was a compatibility layer and 2 was a VM and they were both still supported? Is WSL 1 gone now?
- Comment on Can Mac apps be emulated and run on Windows? 2 months ago:
She, but yeah. I don’t think it’s a good idea, but it is technically a way to run a small subset of macos software on windows without a VM, just using multiple compatibility layers instead
- Comment on Can Mac apps be emulated and run on Windows? 2 months ago:
There is a translation layer for running MacOS software on Linux called Darling. In theory you could run that in WSL. The only downside is it is in very early development and not really at all usable
- Comment on Being a 22-year-old virgin or being 22 and never having been in a relationship is something to be shameful about. 2 months ago:
Why specifically 22? Is this about a specific person?

I don’t know why I keep being surprised when I go to a phoronix article and all the comments on the site are racist, I really should be used to it by now

I’m not aware of a modern browser that doesn’t render it by default. I meant a real browser as in a browser not a lemmy client

It’s punycode, it displays as japanese characters in a real browser.

- Comment on Imagine there was a society in which blue eyed people are referred to with blee/bler pronouns, and green eyed people are referred to with glee/gler pronouns... 4 months ago:
Yeah it’s so weird when you think about how arbitrary separating pronouns by gender really is. I feel like it would make way more sense to have multiple ungendered ones that work similar to the way we have this and that to talk about two different inanimate objects
- Comment on Codeberg: army of AI crawlers are extremely slowing us; AI crawlers learned how to solve the Anubis challenges. 4 months ago:
I think the best thing to do is to not block them when they’re detected but poison them instead. Feed them tons of text generated by tiny old language models, it’s harder to detect and also messes up their training and makes the models less reliable. Of course you would want to do that on a separate server so it doesn’t slow down real users, but you probably don’t need much power since the scrapers probably don’t really care about the speed
- Comment on Same pimple for a year 4 months ago:
And once you’ve worn it for a while you can just take it out and then be like “wow that must have been some weird infection, it left a hole clean through my face!” And then you have the perfect excuse for the piercing existing and can switch to using regular jewelry in it because like “oh well I guess I’d better put something in this to hide my horrible deformity”

Presumably if they wanted an LLM answer they would have, you know, asked an LLM.

I’m not paying for a service I don’t want just because it’s being run unsafely, that isn’t how anything works. If you can’t fact check you need to abandon the project because it is harmful, end of story. This is pretty clearly more of an edgy teen situation than a crazy techbro situation though, so good luck growing out of being an edgy teen, hopefully someday you’ll develop some empathy and make actually good software.

Wow that does not make your intentions seem more pure lol
- Comment on News Summary - A world news community where articles come with AI summaries 5 months ago:
No, you need to fact check information before spreading it. Once you’ve posted it it’s too late, people will have read it and some of those people may believe it and spread it further. You need to either read every summary yourself (or hire a team to do it) and take responsibility for any mistakes, or abandon the project. You don’t get to blame other people for not fact checking the junk you post online.
- Comment on News Summary - A world news community where articles come with AI summaries 5 months ago:
This continues to be a terrible idea. What you’ve built is an automated misinformation machine. You absolutely need to be fact checking every summary by hand, anything else is completely irresponsible no matter how good you claim your model is.
