- Comment on YouTube's new ad strategy is bound to upset users: YouTube Peak Points utilise Gemini to identify moments where users will be most engaged, so advertisers can place ads at the point. 5 weeks ago:
It’s a computer (Artificial) making a choice that is better than random (Intelligence)
What it is not is a LLM (aka chatbot). It isn’t even any type of neural network. Does not make it any less AI though

The next time they try it’s gonna be against terrorism. For sure that time it’ll pass.
- Comment on Unhappy with the recently lost file upload feature in the Nextcloud app for Android? So are we. Let us explain. - Nextcloud 5 weeks ago:
To be fair, not allowing the user to remove an indicator that something could be tracking them is probably not the worst idea. Otherwise it’d be too easy for someone to install an app like that and hide it.

- I have it installed via obtainium (which pulls from their website)
- Pretty I didn’t

- Comment on Android’s next big feature turns your phone into a desktop 1 month ago:
I mean it works on my device which is on Android 15. Not sure how exactly it works though. Just give it a shot and see for yourself?

There is an app called CubeACR which does exactly that on unrooted devices.

Well a tracker I’m following is up more than 10% over the last week so it pretty much was a dip… Now before he crashes the market the next time he tells his buddies and they’ll have made a nice profit buying this dip.

Well you didn’t say for everyone… So maybe he meant just for himself :)

Who said anything about having time beforehand? You’ve gotta bootstrap from the ground up, making that program using only the single char you chose. Now that’d be a real challenge.

Rookie mistake honestly, should’ve asked for your friend who’s writer
- Comment on Cloudflare blocking Pale Moon and other browsers with smaller user bases 3 months ago:
I mean the criticism against Cloudflare is 100% valid. Having a single service be the single point of failure for half the web, not to mention that they can read the contents of every single request they proxy, is a terrible joke.
But the service they provide is real. A small business/service just doesn’t have the capabilities to handle a DDoS attack. And every minute their site is down means lost customers/users.
- Comment on What's up, selfhosters? - The Sunday thread 3 months ago:
Realised my jellyfin lxc had a maxed out bootdisk yesterday, haven’t been using it for a while. Luckily I have decent backups setup so I was able to restore a backup from late January when it wasn’t filled yet. A quick library rescan and everything was up and running again.
- Comment on Obsidian is now free for work - Obsidian 3 months ago:
Huh, didn’t see that one when I set up obsidian… I might check it out because syncthing does have some conflicting edit issues from time to time
- Comment on Obsidian is now free for work - Obsidian 3 months ago:
I mean not use the official paid sync to sync your notes… The plugin is in the official plugin store
- Comment on Obsidian is now free for work - Obsidian 3 months ago:
There’s also syncthing, which allows syncing a folder… Hell theres even a git plugin to bypass obsidian sync, so you can get version controlled notes (which might be desirable in a work setting)
- Comment on Discord introduces a feature that lets you quietly ignore users without them knowing 4 months ago:
It’s called plugins, and it’s great. Technically you are breaking ToS when using them, but there hasn’t been any crackdown (the betterdiscord team did remove the more ‘risky’ mods like messagelogger from the plugin store)
