- Comment on Nintendo Wii The Size Of A Game Boy Cartridge Finally Released Open Source 21 hours ago:
How is this intended to fit in with existing Wii emulators ^[1]^? Is it essentially just trying to offer a more convenient mobile option?

- Comment on YSK that apart from not having a car, the single greatest thing you can do for the climate is simply eating less red meat 2 days ago:
What bother’s me about these sorts of posts is they don’t give people a consumption goal. Blindly telling everyone to consume less isn’t exactly fair. Say, for example, there’s person A who consumes 1 unit of red meat per month, and person B who consumes 100 units of red meat per month. If you say to everyone “consume 1 unit of red meat less per month”, well, now person A consumes 0 units of red meat per month, and person B consumes 99 units of red meat per month. Is that fair? Say, you tell everyone “halve your consumption of red meat per month”, well, now person A consumes 0.5 units of red meat per month, and person B consumes 50 units of red meat per month. Is that fair? Now, say, you tell everyone “you should try to eat at most 2 units of meat per month”, well now person A may happily stay at 1 unit knowing that they’re already below the target maximum, they may choose to decrease of their own accord, or they may feel validated to increase to 2 units of red meat per month, and person B will feel pressured to dramatically, and (importantly, imo) proportionally, reduce their consumption. Blindly saying that everyone should reduce their consumption in such an even manner disproportionately imparts blame, as there are likely those who are much more in need of reduction than others. It may even be that a very small minority of very large consumers are responsible for the majority of the overall consumption, so the “average” person may not even need to change their diet much, if at all, in order to meet a target maximum.

Anecdotally, I have personally encountered a bug where my Linux system couldn’t handle the EDID from the monitor — so that particular model of monitor didn’t function with Linux despite it working fine on Windows.

- Comment on I could do more with native reverse image searches then I currently do with LLM AI. 4 months ago:
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]^.

- Comment on I just finished this friendship bracelet 5 months ago:
[…] 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 5 months 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 5 months 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?
