As the code was vibecoded, I guess that landing page was also llm generated, that could be the reason for the duplicate sections.

What is/was huntarr? I love posts without any context.
- Comment on Elon Musk's xAI loses second cofounder in 48 hours 1 week ago:
I guess the problem is not the repetitive task, but electron microscope’s are expensive to use, and while you create your gifs others can’t use it for actual research. They need vacuum and high voltage to work, which cost money.
I found that to create nice and and clean noise free image you need minutes to hours of exposure time, so it’s possible that gif took hours to take. Someone had to pay for the electricity bill during that, I guess you don’t want to pay for that frequently.
Please correct me if you are someone with actual experience with electron microscopes. It’s hard to find info on this topic.
- Comment on Elon Musk's xAI loses second cofounder in 48 hours 1 week ago:
Searched only for “electron microscope zoom”, it was like the 10th result. It seems like there isn’t a lot of gif like this, as you have to create a lot of images one by one.
- Comment on Elon Musk's xAI loses second cofounder in 48 hours 1 week ago:
The GIF was created by James Tyrwhitt-Drake back in 2012, when he captured the images at the University of Victoria’s Advanced Microscopy Facility and posted the final product to his Tumblog, Infinity Imagined.
- Comment on In a blind test, audiophiles couldn't tell the difference between audio signals sent through copper wire, a banana, or wet mud 2 weeks ago:
We made test once with a friend, where we could hear a difference.
The setup was a Denon reciever, and one speaker was connected with a random cable, the other one is a pure copper, braided audiophile cable. The pc was connected with toslink to the reciever. Played the music as mono, and we switched between the left-right speakers.
The only difference we could hear were very high pitched glockenspiel sounds from a flac file. That’s all. Any other music sounded the same. But the point was, there is a very little difference, even it’s rare to find a song where you can actually hear it.
This was the thing where it was clearly audible, but I guess you can’t hear it on youtube, as mp3 already cuts off that high pitches: www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Kh-3xkye6A
- Comment on Windows Notepad App Remote Code Execution Vulnerability 2 weeks ago:
Improper neutralization of special elements used in a command (‘command injection’) in Windows Notepad App allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network.
An attacker could trick a user into clicking a malicious link inside a Markdown file opened in Notepad, causing the application to launch unverified protocols that load and execute remote files.
TIL notepad can render markdown
- Comment on (Serious) networking with other academics appears difficult 2 weeks ago:
There are a lot academics on mastodon, check out this list: github.com/nathanlesage/academics-on-mastodon
Lemmy/Piefed/Mbin aka the threadiverse is not for this type of networking, you should try the twitter alternative side of the fediverse. You can still follow lemmy communities from there.

They hide it on their website very well, but it’s free as beer and freedom, only some enterprise features are behind a paywall. Maybe this is a better link: github.com/ONLYOFFICE#-get-started

Have you tried onlyoffice? www.onlyoffice.com There is an offline and selfhosted version, and I found it has better compatibility with ms office than libreoffice.

- Comment on Archaeologists Say They've Finally Found a Long-Lost Basilica That Matches the Description the Architect Wrote 2,000 Years Ago 4 weeks ago:
Well, we know only Vitruvius’ name and his book, nothing else. There are debates about his first name, which was recorded only 200 years later, no contemporary sources. The book survived via copies, original illustrations are lost, but we know they existed from references from the text.
And if you are interested about the historicity of Jesus, there is a very detailed page about it on Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historical_Jesus

If your Mac application utilizes a Developer ID provisioning profile to take advantage of advanced capabilities such as CloudKit and push notifications, you must ensure your Developer ID provisioning profile is valid in order for installed versions of your application to run.
It’s possible they just used an “advanced capability”.

I looked up cxmt as I wasnt familiar with it. It’s from mainland China, while Asus is from Taiwan, do they want to sell the limited supply to the rivals?
- Comment on ASUS plans to produce RAM amid shortage problems 2 months ago:
But isn’t the chip supply is already limited? It won’t really help with the shortage.

- Comment on New Community Rule: "No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports." 2 months 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:
- !selfhosted@sh.itjust.works
- !selfhosting@slrpnk.net
- !homelab@selfhosted.forum
- !selfhosting@eviltoast.org
- !SelfHosted@europe.pub
- Comment on First 3D map covering all of Earth’s 2.75 billion buildings unveiled 2 months 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 2 months 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 2 months 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).
