- Comment on Nvidia might not have any new gaming GPUs in 2026 — and could be 'slashing production' of existing GeForce models 22 hours ago:
Don’t worry, you can Stream It From the CLOUD™️ for the low low price of 6x what a GPU would cost you over 5 years.
- Comment on Is the Raspberry Pi Still an Affordable SBC? I Don't Think So 1 day ago:
Wasn’t there some kind of exploit found in ESP32s recently? Did that turn out to be nothing?
I’ve often wanted to get into them and that kind of intimidated me out of it at the time; haven’t had an opportunity to dive back in
- Comment on Microsoft sets Copilot agents loose on your OneDrive files 1 day ago:
Yup, there it is. I’ve been saying it.
Everyone from individuals to Fortune 500s are storing their data on OneDrive and SharePoint in the cloud.
ML models (not necessarily LLMs) are incredible at finding patterns and targeted data points in huge data sets.
I wonder why they need all those data centers for all the AI workloads that barely anyone is using, or wants.
Hmm. Hmmmmmm. 🤔
- Comment on Consumer hardware is no longer a priority for manufacturers 1 day ago:
Bingo! And they’re doing it to enterprises too. Why do you think copilot is shoved into everything? Why do you think Recall is creeping towards being mandatory? Why do you think OneDrive isn’t optional anymore?
They don’t just want your data for advertising. They want to watch the entire capital machine in real-time to make sure there aren’t any gaps, and dissent, and most of all, anyone getting the jump on something new and big. OneDrive to rule them all.
- Comment on Hamburglar, meet Hat Man 1 day ago:
Dimetapp still is a couch medicine. Although I think they have reduced the amount of dextromethorphan in it, which is the stuff that makes you trip
- Comment on Is H9me Assistant recommended? 1 day ago:
Yep! While I didn’t run mine through HA, I much preferred AdGuardHome over PiHole.
- Comment on Is H9me Assistant recommended? 1 day ago:
Always run mine in a VM along with everything else, no need for special hardware.
Get yourself a PoE Zigbee and/or Z-wave receiver and you are good to go, can even live migrate HA if you are fancy
- Comment on Is H9me Assistant recommended? 1 day ago:
Most WiFi devices these days are cloud-based, at least on the American market.
If you can find a Zigbee or Z-Wave (or the up-and-coming Thread), those only work locally. The only way to get remote control is to expose HomeAssistant (or a similar hub) to the internet - usually using a VPN from your remote devices into your network.
It’s a bit more upfront work, but no one can track your devices, they’re off grid/much harder to hack remotely, etc.
- Comment on We've grown fat with information, but are starving for wisdom... 1 day ago:
The internet’s greatest strength is that anyone can publish knowledge to it. The internet’s greatest weakness is that anyone can publish knowledge to it.
- Comment on The developers of PEAK, explaining how they decided on pricing for their game. 2 days ago:
They’re outta line, but they’re right
- Comment on This is real. Big controversy regarding cheating in Olympic events because of the size of suit worn by jumpers 2 days ago:
This sounds like hugenics to me
- Comment on This is real. Big controversy regarding cheating in Olympic events because of the size of suit worn by jumpers 2 days ago:
They’ll have to make a new rule banning the batwing
- Comment on 2 days ago:
There are mods to help with that, it’s actually got quite an active mod community and, although it introduces breaking changes, they made the game even easier to mod for the 1.0 release. There’s even an entirely new faction, the Emberpelts!
- Comment on Are faked public comments about to tank an Ohio solar farm 3 days ago:
Remember when they blocked net neutrality with fake comments and the FCC under Ajit Pai just went 🤷♂️”doesn’t look like anything suspicious to me!”
- Comment on Even their fish are fucked up 4 days ago:
Pretty doubtful it was cocaine then
- Comment on Ghost of Lemm.ee? 4 days ago:
While it would be good to see that the instance is gone somehow, I do appreciate that the content is in fact archived and not lost when the instance goes away.
- Comment on The data windows collect about you goes to a company founded by someone who is in the epstein files 5 days ago:
Some shit bag devices (Chromecast were the first I knew about) started hardcoding DNS server addresses and/or using DoH. There are ways to capture those too, I believe.
- Comment on If every accusation is a confession, the “woke mind virus” panic was a clear-cut admission of an existing opposite-ideology virus that's making many people very mentally ill 5 days ago:
Oh it’s a real thing, it’s just that conservatives are the ones who don’t believe they have it. You know, just like they were trained to do with COVID, and vaccinations.
- Comment on [deleted] 6 days ago:
That’s the job of the web server, not of the application that runs on it.
There is already software you can get that feeds a never-ending maze of text to AI scrapers, some of which is AI generated and/or designed to poison LLM training. The problem is that these still use up a ton of bandwidth.
- Comment on [deleted] 6 days ago:
You mention your product in the reply and hope that some poor sap doesn’t realize it’s astroturfing and thinks they’re finding a really glowing honest review from a totally organic real person who recommended a thing they found that actually works
- Comment on Finland's Ministry of Justice is considering halting its plans to start using US-hosted cloud services 1 week ago:
They didn’t used to. England in particular had a leg up during the PC revolution. There are also a lot of really great game studios there in the 90s.
And to be fair there still are some, but they broke al lot of ground in the early days. I don’t know what happened; American enshittification possibly left a bad taste in a lot of folks mouths.

- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
You mean you have a script that pulls in the cert from a central source (where certwarden renews it), and then caddy can’t access it locally?
Exactly what error is Caddy giving? What permissions have you tried and what was the result? How are you restarting Caddy after renewal? Why do you have multiple reverse proxies?
- Comment on Are there any reputable cybersecurity experts that I could just email them to ask for free advice? 1 week ago:
The post is a bit more reddit, or Yahoo Answers, than fediverse
The replies though, lol yeah bang on mate
- Comment on Nvidia CEO pushes back against report that his company's $100B OpenAI investment has stalled 1 week ago:
LLMs like what is being overhyped cannot take over the world.
They are not constant-thought processors. They are the most overbuilt autocomplete of all time.
The “take over the world” problem is the capitalists who see dollar signs in automating away humans.
- Comment on The people like AI because they treat it like a search engine. 1 week ago:
You already told it you were interested in soup. It didn’t provide cook times, prep work needed or portions. It didn’t mention any other alternatives or possibilities.
You will need to open a recipe blog anyway, after taking the time to read that and determine that it’s not everything you need to know, and it drank the volume of a Honda Civic in water and used enough electricity to heat your house for resistive space heaters for 17 hours in below-zero F weather.
It created that answer by comparing its statistical word tree to other, similar word combinations and then autocompleting the next most likely word you might want to hear. It did not consider your topic in any way, it doesn’t know what’s carrot is, only its token number and that it kind of belong in paragraphs that roughly resemble the one it gave you. It is a reverse-Gaussian-blur of a Gaussian-blurred overlay of a million photos of paragraphs about carrots, soups, and carrot soups.
It carved away forests and poisoned nearby pensioner’s air just to give your this gray area of an answer, devoid of all thought or creativity. It is objectively worse than the ad-strewn sites written by an actual person, in every way, and you’d have to be a fucking madman to offer any praise upon it.

Congratulations, you’re now caught up on the last two decades

- Comment on Do you backup your docker images? 1 week ago:
This is the way
- Comment on Do you backup your docker images? 1 week ago:
As long as the internet works and the image is still available.
Which is kind of the whole point, homie.
