Current gen models got less accurate and hallucinated at a higher rate compared to the last ones, from experience and from openai. I think it’s either because they’re trying to see how far they can squeeze the models, or because it’s starting to eat its own slop found while crawling.

IP addresses are not, and have never been federated. This may shock you, but any admin of any website can see what IP address you’re connecting from if you connect to their site.

Eventually the filament will get coated and sealed in a nice, thick layer of tar and protect your lungs from the microplastics!

While partially true, we have known that greenhouse gasses contributed to climate change since the 19th century:
In the late 19th century, scientists first argued that human emissions of greenhouse gases could change Earth’s energy balance and climate. The existence of the greenhouse effect, while not named as such, was proposed as early as 1824 by Joseph Fourier. The argument and the evidence were further strengthened by Claude Pouillet in 1827 and 1838. In 1856 Eunice Newton Foote demonstrated that the warming effect of the sun is greater for air with water vapour than for dry air, and the effect is even greater with carbon dioxide.

It is true, however, that our knowledge greatly increased in the 1960s and 70s.

So surely no corporations or governments will be using them to remote in, right?
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
My point is that it’s just going to add to the slop, even when LLMs “source” data, they can be very wrong. Just because slop exists elsewhere doesn’t mean adding more slop will suddenly create a positive. It just creates more slop.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
It won’t be an improvement, just another way for people to fall in line and not think for themselves.

Diatomaceous earth (food grade) works wonders
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
Why are you focusing on the fact that different models exist rather than the fact that people are using LLMs (which can’t think) to do their thinking for them?

yeah, kind of crazy seeing as only upper class and government officials are even allowed to leave NK. that’s their team, huh?

What isn’t true about it?
- Comment on North Korean youth risk arrest for speaking like South Koreans 2 weeks ago:
I’ll take it over the literal slop of propaganda that comes out of NK, it’s definitely more reliable than that at the least.
- Comment on Why do females got to be so hard to talk or flirt with? 2 weeks ago:
A good start would be not calling them “females”. Money can’t get you actual love, so I wouldn’t focus on that either. I also have social anxiety and know it can be difficult to put yourself out there, but it just makes it all the better when someone works out.

- Comment on Question about traffic using Cloudflare tunnel 3 weeks ago:
The (wildcard) certs are the same, as it’s what caddy is pulling via API. You can either build the cloudflare module into caddy via docker build, or use a prebuilt version. It doesn’t create two separate certs for local and remote.
It works really well for me, and is actually the most straight forward way to get valid certs for internal services I’ve found. Since they’re wildcard, my internal domains don’t get exposed through certificate authorities.

It would probably take days to rebuild the array.
It’s important to also note that RAID (or alternatives such as unRAID) are not backup systems and should not be relied on as such. If you have a severe brownout that fries more than two or three drives at once, for example, you will lose data if you’re not backing up.
- Comment on Say Hello to the World's Largest Hard Drive, a Massive 36TB Seagate 3 weeks ago:
Nah, as a fellow data hoarder you’re 100% correct. I have a couple of dozen disks, I’ve had failures from both Seagate and WD, but the Seagates have failed much more often. For the past couple of years, I’ve only purchased WD for this reason.
- Comment on Very large amounts of gaming gpus vs AI gpus 3 weeks ago:
Efficiency still matters very much when self hosting. You need to consider power usage (do you have enough amps in your service to power a single GPU? probably. what about 10? probably not) and heat (it’s going to make you need to run more A/C in the summer, do you have enough in your service to power an A/C and your massive amount of GPUs? not likely).
Homes are not designed for huge amounts of hardware. I think a lot of self hosters (including my past self) can forget that in their excitement of their hobby. Personally, I’m just fine not running huge models at home. I can get by with models that can run on a single GPU, and even if I had more GPUs in my server, I don’t think the results (which would still contain many hallucinations) would be worth the power cost, strain on my A/C, and possible electrical overload.
- Comment on Question about traffic using Cloudflare tunnel 3 weeks ago:
You can use caddy to get internal https via cloudflare API, and no traffic needs to go through a cloudflare tunnel for that.
- Comment on Feds in Catalonia, Spain think everyone using a Google Pixel must be a drug dealer 4 weeks ago:
I don’t think it’s very relevant to the discussion of drug dealers using Graphene.
- Comment on Feds in Catalonia, Spain think everyone using a Google Pixel must be a drug dealer 4 weeks ago:
Yep, disabling it entirely allows for charging when the device is off, but otherwise, it is functionally useless and is disabled at the hardware level.
- Comment on Feds in Catalonia, Spain think everyone using a Google Pixel must be a drug dealer 4 weeks ago:
You can install Graphene from the browser, it’s really not a huge hassle to install especially if you do it right when you get the phone.
