  I love that they changed their name to show how serious they were about the metaverse being the future of tech and it never even came close to being a thing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Enshittification of Plex Is Kicking Off, Starting with Free Roku Users⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m a Jellyfin guy, but charging money for a product or service isn’t what “enshittification” means. As the article says this is just removing a loophole for legacy apps on older devices. The pricing model hasn’t changed.

  If anyone in the world does,there is a high probability they are on this instance

  Is there a radarr/sonarr that could work for this?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Science-centric streaming service Curiosity Stream is an AI-licensing firm now⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I wonder if the creators are aware of this. I have been considering replacing youtube with something healthier like this or Nebula. I suppose Nebula it is.

  The remasters of 2, 3 and 4 are phenomenal.

  It’s for image recognition. Nothing sad about it. Great feature.

  Lemmy needs post flair so the mods can add “O’BRIEN MUST SUFFER”

  I don’t know but it’s a bop

  Why does the tall man have a furry face?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Screw it, I’m installing Linux⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Bazzite is good for noobs looking for a gaming option because it’s “immutable” which means the filesystem can’t be edited, which makes it nearly impossible to break.

  Mint is still very noob friendly, just not immutable. Both are solid options because neither one requires any command line to get it on-par with Windows.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Screw it, I’m installing Linux⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I am trying out Kinoite now but it’s very similar. I think the immutable distros are best for people who want a “Just works” experience to start with.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Screw it, I’m installing Linux⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Every. Single. Time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bluesky announces moderation changes focused on better tracking, improved transparency⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s purely marketing and I wish it would stop getting repeated. BlueSky is centralized and a for-profit company.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Screw it, I’m installing Linux⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  With Linux being better for gaming and Mac still the place for creative software, Windows really is only for business users.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Screw it, I’m installing Linux⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  🤞pleasejustpickbazzite pleasejustpickbazzite pleasejustpickbazzite🤞

  I’m going to install CachyOS, an Arch-based distro

  oh god dammit

  This is a good point, I actually made that mistake once! It required their app to setup.

  It was as if millions of off-instance voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.

  Amcrest seems to be the cheapest and I have good experience with them and Frigate

  Not sure how Kagi will help with my supermarket loyalty card but thanks anyway

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Introducing SlopStop: Community-driven AI slop detection in Kagi Search⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Tried and couldn’t! Was hoping someone here could highlight something I missed but seems no.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Introducing SlopStop: Community-driven AI slop detection in Kagi Search⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Eh, not really. I don’t use google and I block trackers anyway.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Introducing SlopStop: Community-driven AI slop detection in Kagi Search⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve heard nothing but good things about Kagi but it’s very difficult for me to justify paying for search…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why Apple Just Gave Up on AI - ColdFusion⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They still need natural language processing to translate the LLM to something the device understands. LLMs just make the interface more human-ey.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why Apple Just Gave Up on AI - ColdFusion⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  For along while I wondered what would happen when Apple (a company who prides itself on it’s products “just working”) inevitably collided with the generative AI hype train.

  At first I thought they might stay away of the whole thing, but they didn’t and it’s been funny watching them struggle to integrate even the simplest aspects of generative AI into their products. Anyone who knows how LLMs work know that it is wholly different than the natural language processing that goes into Siri.
