- Comment on New Community Rule: "No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports." 4 days ago:
I’ve seen slightly offtopic posts deleted here, even after some interesting conversation in the comments. I think Lemmy is a small platform, and it could help the platform if conversations and posts are preserved even if they are not 100% on topic. But I respect the work of mods, it’s their decision how they run a community, even if I don’t agree with them all time.
But just as a backup, if things take an unexpected turn, here are some similar, but much less active communities:

- Comment on First 3D map covering all of Earth’s 2.75 billion buildings unveiled 5 days ago:
Yes the headline is clickbait and misleading, this data is not usable for anything to us mortals, it’s for researchers who need very low quality data but for global calculations.
- Comment on First 3D map covering all of Earth’s 2.75 billion buildings unveiled 5 days ago:
We utilized building footprint datasets from various sources (see Table 2), including OSM (OpenStreetMap contributors, 2025), Google Open buildings (Google Research, 2023), Microsoft Building Footprints (Microsoft, 2024), and CLSM (Shi et al., 2024). Since none of the above-mentioned footprints is complete, we also generated our own global building polygons from an updated version of GlobalBuildingMap (Zhu et al., 2024),
As I’m a frequent OSM contributor, I’m familiar with those other datasets, and they are shit. Just zoom in any river or lake near a city and you will find houses in the water, clearly grid based building are nicely dancing around, etc. The demoed areas are from OSM, and mostly drawn manually, you can see them on a lot other sources without the low quality AI gen contours, e.g.:
So I don’t really get what is the point here, they get a human made dataset, add some AI slop next to it merge them together and relicense. I’m not even sure it’s legal…
- Comment on toki pona 1 week ago:
Toki Pona (translated as ‘the language of good’) is a philosophical and artistic constructed language designed for its small vocabulary, simplicity, and ease of acquisition. It was created by Canadian translator and polyglot Sonja Lang with the stated purpose of simplifying her thoughts and communication. The first drafts were published online in 2001, while the complete form was published in the 2014 book Toki Pona: The Language of Good (referred to as lipu pu in Toki Pona).

- Comment on Android QuickShare is now compatible with AirDrop 2 weeks ago:
Also QuickShare is not an Android feature, it’s Google Play Services (GMS) feature, it doesn’t work on degoogled android phones.
Here is the issue about implementing it in microG: github.com/microg/GmsCore/issues/1272

I haven’t followed this software and company before, what do you mean, what is the catch?
Adobe doesn’t offer any of its software for free accept acrobat reader, where you get nagged about payed features constantly, but it’s easy to ignore.

All the files and folders will be “write protected” the next time you mount the CF-Card on your Linux system.
How do you mount it? Maybe you just have to add an
rwflag somewhere. - Comment on Mastodon: Our ideas about Packs 1 month ago:

- Comment on is there a way to run openwrt and debian at the same time without virtualization? 2 months ago:
Just the heads up, that cpu is ancient. It’s performance is comparable to an Rpi 4, but that old cpu consumes 30W+ while a full rpi maxes around 6-7 W. Rpi 5 is around 4-5 times more powerful with less than half power.
So it’s good if you just tinkering with old hardware for fun, but you can buy far more powerful modern hardware for only several dollars if you look at the second hand market.
Also I remember, I dealt with Toshibas from that era, they were quite locked down, e.g. you couldn’t install upstream nvidia drivers on them only the outdated ones signed by Toshiba. So it’s not unexpected that they locked down also some options like that are missing in bios settings.

- Comment on What are you guys using to sort and name music? 2 months ago:
You can easily import music metadata to musicbrainz with userscripts: github.com/murdos/musicbrainz-userscripts
I use the discogs and bandcamp one frequently.
Install the userscript in your browser, and if you find your album on discogs or other sites, it adds a button there, and with few clicks it transfers the data to musicbrainz. Then in picard search again, or copy the link from musicbrainz to the searchbar in picard

- Comment on Internet standards body proposes new header field disclosing AI — will make it easier for machines to determine if AI was used on a site 3 months ago:
Piracy is also illegal in most of the countries of the world. The new id requirement for porn is also working well in some countries as I heard. And eu cookie law and gdpr were intended to be a popup on every website.
I’m really happy lawmakers thinking about the internet, I’m sure it will be better executed this time.

Then can you explain how google news works? I never used it, maybe a lot otherrs have also no idea.
From google reader i switched to feedly after google shut it down in 2013, when I started self hosting switched to ttrss, then to freshrss when it became apparent the developer of ttrss is an actual neonazi. It was always working for me so i never looked for a replacement.

Wait. The point of the unbelievable amount of telemetry you can’t even disable was to collect info in situations like this. Right? Why is there telemetry if they have to ask?

- Comment on Self-hosted meteo apps ? 4 months ago:
There is a history dashboard where you can change the date and which sensors you want to display: www.home-assistant.io/integrations/history/ You don’t zoom but you have to add dates, same 2 sensors look like this there:
But it depends on the sensor if it supports this long term statistics, by default all data is saved only for 10 days, you can change these settings.
- Comment on Self-hosted meteo apps ? 4 months ago:
I already use HomeAssistant and it has a nice graph interface, you can add any data you want. Plus I have a zigbee temp and humidity sensor on the balcony, so I can add local data to the one coming from external sources. E.g. here is a temperature graph, blue is the temperature from OpenWeatherMap, yellow is an indoor sensor. It shows daily mean, min and max for the last 30 days: Image
You can find built in weather integrations here: www.home-assistant.io/integrations/?cat=weather
- Comment on Microsoft’s Edge browser now loads sites even faster 4 months ago:
It now takes Microsoft’s browser less than 300 milliseconds to start rendering the first parts of a website for users,
I use edge only if I set up computers for others, and I don’t want to install firefox for just downloading an installer or something. You have 3 unskippable consent dialogs before you can even type the url, and the no button is on a different position on the dialogs, so you can’t click it through quickly. But I’m really happy these dialogs load more quickly, thank you microsoft for your hard work on making linux a viable alternative to more and more people.
