Generative AI was a scam
So is Substack…
- Comment on Are there regions of the world where local men and women have divergent accents? 2 days ago:
Yeah, that’s what I meant too. Men and women almost universally have different vocal patterns though, even when they ostensibly have the same accent.
- Comment on Are there regions of the world where local men and women have divergent accents? 2 days ago:
All of them?
- Comment on 3 days ago:
Ah. That’s disappointing. It does explain why it was running on a mastodon instance though.
- Comment on 3 days ago:
Yep, but to get those features you have to access it from the piefed/lemmy instance. gup.pe/friendica style groups predate lemmy though, and were designed to be accessed from your mastodon/fediverse account, rather than being signed in to directly.
- Comment on YSK Your smoke detectors should be replaced every 7-10 years 3 days ago:
The ones we have installed respond to IR signals from your TV remote. It doesn’t matter what the signal is, just point the remote at the smoke alarm and it will turn off

- Comment on Dbzero has Defederated from Feddit.org following its Governance post about the later's Zionist Bar Problem 1 week ago:
It is more complicated than that. Vulnerable minorities don’t thrive in spaces where they’re endlessly playing whack a mole with bigots and trolls.
I didn’t leave Twitter for the fediverse because of its network. I left even before Musk, because Twitter was full of hate that the admins didn’t feel the need to action.
Your preference is just that… And as long as there is room for your preference on the fediverse without it being the only way to experience it, we can both have the experiences we want.
- Comment on Dbzero has Defederated from Feddit.org following its Governance post about the later's Zionist Bar Problem 1 week ago:
The numbers of fediverse users have more to do with onboarding, VC funding for marketing and the inherent nature of federation itself than it has to do with defederation policies
- Comment on Dbzero has Defederated from Feddit.org following its Governance post about the later's Zionist Bar Problem 1 week ago:
No. Having instances with varying approaches to defederation is good for the fediverse. Having no defederation is how you end up with nostr.

What’s in the backpack?!

Get some silica gel in there too
- Comment on Is Dungeon Meshi worth it if I'm not into anime? 1 week ago:
I’m not a fan of most anime for similar reasons to you, and whilst I’m not loving Dungeon Meshi, I’m enjoying it. The biggest trope that it has that I struggle with is the female character is very much the overly anxious worrier that has to be cajoled in to everything by the ensemble of males.
- Comment on Sydney author guilty of child abuse after book, Daddy’s Little Toy, depicted adult role-playing as toddler 2 weeks ago:
Wrong link?
- Comment on European Commission Trials Matrix to Replace Microsoft Teams 3 weeks ago:
I mean, matrix is similar. So many official features aren’t supported by various clients, and then there are non official features that the clients do support, that aren’t supported by the official clients.
But matrix or XMPP, that problem is easily enough avoided at the “government rollout” level by standardising on a particular client and server combination - Comment on I'm trying to identity a dinosaur theme park/attraction on the Gold Coast in the 80s 3 weeks ago:
The one I went to was definitely on the Gold Coast

They’re screaming something! Torresian Crows, Pied Currawongs, Noisy Miners, every morning they’re around my yard yelling at the top of their little lungs!
- Comment on Need help setting up Immich to index my pictures on another drive 5 weeks ago:
Share the volumes section of your docker compose file
Also, just in case, for pre-existing image collections (rather than one you will manually upload to immich) you need to use the “external libraries” feature in the admin settings. You should be pointing that feature at the docker mount point you have listed in your compose file

What’s proven is that our current mathematical models do not accurately represent the universe due to the way things move and effects of gravity
This is actually the bit that Vera Rubin discovered. The summary of her discovery in the quote is the issue :)

Wow, that’s huge!
- Comment on Searching Hosted Images by Star Rating (Immich, Photoprism, etc) 1 month ago:
Immich can search by star rating, but you need to enable the feature as it’s not enabled by default. Go to Account Settings / Features / Star Rating.
After that, it appears in your search options/filters
- Comment on Fediverse Instances for Digital Nomads and Travelers 1 month ago:
I don’t need the instances (we host pretty much the same ones), but I’ll be joining a lot of those communities!

- Comment on Doesn't each community being local to each instance split the audience? 1 month ago:
Federate communities are literally the point of lemmy. They were there from the beginning?
- Comment on we need more users 1 month ago:
I mean, that is how I recommend linux distros to people :)
- Comment on we need more users 1 month ago:
We can make our decentralised network more popular by centralising it feels like an own goal…
- Comment on What principles you wish to see social networks (or the fediverse) adopt in their design? 1 month ago:
No way. Transphobia is not welcome on any instance I run for example. And that isn’t something that a user should be able to change for themselves. That’s a scenario where you would pick a difference instance
