Basically, every search engine has incorporated LLMs and are shoving them down your throat. If we are talking about tools that I would find useful I’d rather have a reverse image search. […]
So, for clarity, are you saying that a reverse image search tool is more useful to you than AI integration, yet search engines are pushing for AI integration rather than reverse image search tools, and they may not have reverse image search tools at all?

Edit: damn, that down vote hurt. Must be an llm developer, I guess.
If you are accusing me, as of writing this, I have not downvoted your comment ^[1]^.

[…] Never thought to use a clasp, thats neat.
Ha, yeah, I got annoyed with having to tie a knot on another friendship bracelet every time that I’d want to wear it (plus the knot was uncomfortable for me to feel), so I decided to just buy a pack of generic clasps and tied them on. Though, I’ve found through use that they’re honestly not the best designed clasps — the opening for the clasp is annoyingly small to fit the ring into, the opening is at an inconvenient angle to easily use for a bracelet (though maybe they’re designed for necklaces, I’m not sure), and the spring is a bit too strong to easily pull back with one hand (when attaching a bracelet onto another wrist, one really only has one free hand to work the clasp). But they’re better than nothing 😜

- Comment on "How decentralized is Bluesky really?" by Christine Lemmer-Webber 3 weeks ago:
It could be done without having to clone all data though. Reddit is hosted by AWS and their data is distributed on multiple servers, so replace AWS by a bunch of people like you and me providing disk space for the data and tada, you can decentralized the database and just give people access to interacting with it directly (through code) or via various front-ends that people would create. […]
If I understand you correctly, there is an open issue for Lemmy for a similar idea of co-hosting communities.

[…] they’re always using the same credentials no matter the website they use and no matter the website they can interact with everything that ever happened on the servers, no one has the power to prevent users from seeing some of the transactions that happened (no admins) because the website they use are just a front used to simplify interaction with the servers. […]
Hm, IIUC, this is one of Bluesky’s issues that the linked blog post was pointing out — if joining the network requires one to mirror all existing data, it makes it prohibitively expensive for anyone to spin up a server to join the network if the size of the network is enormous.
- Comment on "How decentralized is Bluesky really?" by Christine Lemmer-Webber 3 weeks ago:
If things were decentralized in similar way to crypto it would be way better for user adoption.
IIUC, are you perhaps referring to something like Nostr?

I think you may have misunderstood what I was saying. I was outlining an example where the outcome is favorable by all parties, but the principles used to arrive at the outcome differ. If I understand you correctly, you seem to be describing an outcome that wouldn’t be favorable for all parties.
- Comment on BACK IT UP 3 months ago:
I think the implications here is that the reasons it gets legalized can have an impact on the specifics of the policy.
Could you elaborate on what you mean?
- Comment on BACK IT UP 3 months ago:
And parents are held responsible if they give it to kids
Imo, only if it can be proven that the parent is being willfully negligent regarding the safety the child.
Also, if a product that claimed to be safe, but actually wasn’t, was purchased and given to the child, then this responsibility should fall on the producer only.
- Comment on BACK IT UP 3 months ago:
Yes, but it shouldn’t be legalized for the wrong reasons.
This is kind of an interesting thought, imo. If one agrees with the resultant policy, does the rationale used to get there matter? Perhaps it does in principle, but I wonder if it matters in practice. The end result is the same.

[…] ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine
I’ll be honest, I don’t really understand this one. I’d guess that this is likely some hold over grudge from COVID, but I don’t really understand why it’s still a concern to get, presumably, more open access to those drugs. Aren’t we long past that conversation? Feels like beating a dead horse.
- Comment on BACK IT UP 3 months ago:
[…] raw milk […]
I’d support this so long as the manufacturers of said raw milk could be held to account for harm caused to a consumer who purchased it under the belief that it was safe — likely, this would also mean that, if it isn’t safe, the product containing raw milk must otherwise display explicit warnings. I think a person should be allowed to take take their own risks.

[…] psychedelics […]
I’m glad that it seems like the war on drugs is showing cracks. I completely support a move to legalize psychedelics.

Hypholoma fasciculare
Hmm. I at least don’t think that it’s fasciculare. The stipe should have a collar [1.1] (though, I question this as none of the images I see seem to shop a collar), which this doesn’t. The caps should be convex [1.1], which they aren’t — the babies are somewhat, but the mature one’s are wavy. From the picture’s that I’ve seen, the color is also off — they’re shown as more yellow [1.2][2], where this one is not yellow — the color of the specimens that I’ve observed is, in general, very different.

Are there softwares to simulate enough electronics and microcontrollers to learn?
It depends on what you are looking for. For a quick simulation to get a very rough, and more ideal, visual, you can use something like Falstad. But for anything more practical and useful, I’d recommend using SPICE. There’s lot’s of software out there that implements SPICE [2]. KiCAD offers SPICE simulation [1].

I want to try learning microcontrollers afterwards but I can’t afford to buy any IRL atm
The perceived expensiveness of things is certainly relative, but I would still argue that the hardware for microcontrollers really doesn’t have to be that expensive [1][2][3][4].

Looks like a Fractal Node 304?
Yep! I’ve found that the case is possibly a little too cramped for my liking — I’m not overly fond of the placement of the drive bay hangars — but overall it’s been alright. It’s definitely a nice form factor.
- Comment on Post your setup. no matter how uggo 3 months ago:
It wasn’t a deliberate choice. It was simply hardware that I already had available at the time. I have had no performance issues of note as a result of the hardware’s age, so I’ve seen no reason to upgrade it just yet.
