• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How would you answer the "ecological" question on self hosting and federated networks ?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Most large federated servers are hosted on VPS like solutions, not some old PC in someone’s closet. They are very similar to the types of machines that large companies host centralized social media on.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Booklore is officially dead⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I saw your thesis about how the community needs to not drive off maintainers. But that’s not what happened here. There was a dispute between maintainers over the integrity of the code being dumped into the repo by one Dev. It wasn’t some kneejerk reaction to AI, it was the people who help develop the project themselves worried about the longevity and maintenance when huge amounts of slop code are being pulled in faster than it can be checked. If your had any idea the real problems that open source maintainers are dealing with around AI slop right now you might had had the sense to not get on your soapbox about the wrong issue.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Booklore is officially dead⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  So, completely uneducated about the real issues that led to this, you decided this was a good opportunity for your pro AI soap box.

  Yeah, there’s definitely a reason we can’t have reasonable coverslip conversations around AI.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Booklore is officially dead⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It would if he was dumping huge portions of AI generated code into it the repository faster than people could reasonably review it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Password manager woes. How have you solved syncing on Android?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Vaultwarden with the Bitwarden Android app and browser extension for my desktop. I already have a solid system for backing up the important data for all my docker containers. As soon as I added it, it was automatically added to that process.

  My spouse has an account so if I side she can gain access to my passwords with a simple request. That’s function is important to me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Colon cancer now leading cause of cancer deaths under 50 in US⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I the nurse’s defense they are not a nutritionist. Throwing additional fiber into your diet is quicker and easier than reevaluating your entire diet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Colon cancer now leading cause of cancer deaths under 50 in US⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Eating less meat and more plants is going to naturally push people towards more fiber. With the added benefit of helping the environment and reducing odds of heart disease as well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This Fall, Florida Students Will Be Forced to Take “Anti-Communist” Classes⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You can really smell the desperation in the air. The only reason to do this is because they know they’re pushing people to their breaking points.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hisense TVs force owners to watch intrusive ads when switching inputs, visiting the home screen, or even changing channels — practice infuriates consumers, brand denies wrongdoing⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I know they’re different manufacturers, but TCL tried this shit and I just factory reset and never setup the Internet on it. I use an android TV box for the smarts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UK's Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) warn AI agents may not be 'faithful servants' to consumers⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The entire point of the LLM push is it’s a black box that a corporation controls. You have no idea what they put in, how they told it to behave… They are insanely dangerous.
