  They aren’t using their AI. They currently use open source ondevice models and have perplexity as a search option.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A Gaming Tour de Force That Is Very, Very French⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  true, they do release a lot of games, but given how well stuff like expedition 33 sells I think more focused, unique experiences might be a better strategy

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A Gaming Tour de Force That Is Very, Very French⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s funny how every group of developpers that leave ubisoft make peak afterwards, it’s almost as if ubisoft’s management was dogshit

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WhatsApp will become interoperable with other messaging apps thanks to the DMA’s crackdown on Big Tech.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah I agree, I’m just hoping they won’t drag it out too much.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WhatsApp will become interoperable with other messaging apps thanks to the DMA’s crackdown on Big Tech.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Should be open to every chat app that adopts a certain protocol, so it’s odd that it’s only those two. Maybe they’re chosen because nobody uses them, and it makes it a good test.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How My 6-Year Old Almost Became a Copyright Pirate Overnight⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Despite protests, whining, and even a few tears, I managed to convince my son that just as we must respect other children’s “toys” at school, we also must respect the “rights” of IP owners by not taking or using what belongs to others. Fortunately, Google’s platform includes a filter that prevents generating content involving well-known characters or protected IP. And, with that safeguard in place, we were able to return to story time, and all sleep a little better that night.

  This paragraph made me irrationally angry, like, what the fuck.

  Genuinely at a loss for words.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Selfhosted alternatives to Discord with screensharing?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Now elemt calling is all integrated like on discord, if your homeserver supports it. Also available on other clients but I don’t quite remember which ones.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The state media isn’t controlled be the state, they’re just as independent as the corporate media. The media atmosphere is a valid reason to leave, but don’t say you’re “heavily targeted by the state”

  I don’t want googe play services on my computer, sandboxed gps still sucks ass for privacy

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jack Dorsey Releases Vine Reboot Where AI Content Is Banned⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It is actually decentralised as far as I can tell, although I would like to point out that bluesky is also decentralised, while bsky.app has dominant market share, nothing stops anyone from hosting their own, completely independent, instance. Some have already done so.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jack Dorsey Releases Vine Reboot Where AI Content Is Banned⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It is on nostr, I don’t like the protocol very much but it is decentralised

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would you like to playtest a new indie game? Just completed first playable version of my psychological horror/moral choice simulation.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If you want to make a review, I could recommend straftat, it’s a pretty simple game, but there’s enough interesting that I think it’d make for an interesting review!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jellyfin: why is the line two different colors?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s always funny to me that blue means left to americans.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨test⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Looks like it worked

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Promised myself I will support them after they go stable. They kept their promise and so did I⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  As far as I can tell the worst thing they did was call their source available license open source, which isn’t even that bad.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Austrian Ministry Kicks Out Microsoft in Favor of Nextcloud⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  They worked with an austrian cloud company that “worked alongside Nextcloud’s team to ensure the platform met the ministry’s legal, technical, and organizational requirements.”

  They only have like 1.2k employees anyways so it’s not a crazy amount.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fake Nvidia GTC stream hosting Jensen Huang deepfake crypto scam garners 100,000 YouTube viewers, AI-generated hoax generates 5x more views than real event⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Probably botted in order to appear over the official stream.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Zorin OS Breaks Download Record as Windows 10 Users Seek Alternatives⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve heard of it before, it’s basically just mint if they charged for an easy theme applier, and had better marketing material. They also have a nice wine client that prompts you to use the native version of an app if it’s in the app store.

  Honestly pretty good distro, I’ve used it before.

  You can skip that btw, hasn’t been necessary for a while

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Over 47% of Stop Killing Games Signatures Have Already Been Verified⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean ideally any proposed law would go to referendum if there’s a popular enough petition for or against.
