  Me too >.<

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cops are like vampires. They can't come into your house unless invited.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  In brazil, many cops aren’t like vampires, because if they look into a mirror, they see themselves. Sorry, international lemmy users, but only entendedores entenderão.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Failure is the best teacher⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  But only when you’re a good student.

  I know a LOT of people who make the same mistakes and suffer from the same consequences again and again, without ever learning.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The LanguageTool extension will now be paid⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Just checked, and it’s nice to use. Too bad it only supports english for now, but still a good alternative.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The LanguageTool extension will now be paid⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The LanguageTool extension will now be paid⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Are there any alternatives besides the local model?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Aluminium OS will be Google’s take on Android for PC⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s also BlissOS if you want to run android on a desktop with a more desktop-like gui.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Brazil's Bolsonaro detained for trying to break ankle bracelet and flee⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t be sad, be happy! It requires some country to be brave and break this invisible barrier, showing that those people aren’t invulnerable and that we can still turn things to a better path, before others will follow.

  And by the way, I’m proud of being from this country ^-

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Screw it, I’m installing Linux⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Looks like I finally found a purpose to live

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨LLMDeathCount.com⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  For me, the suicide-related data is so hard to measure and so open for debates, that I’d treat it separately, or not include it at all, if using death count as an argument against llms, since it’s a breach for deviating the debate.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨E Ink goes mobile with budget eye-friendly smartphone⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I love e-ink screens and Always wanted one of those phones, but even the “budget” ones are too expensive for me :(

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The AWS Outage Bricked People’s $2,700 Smartbeds⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Just like companies embracing ai and messing up to the point of catastrophic failures

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which operating system should I choose?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Your computer very likely doesn’t need a special distro for low end devices yet. A common distro like linux mint will do fine, and that’s probably the best choice if you’re new to linux.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The fact that users are encouraged to include text descriptions with media content makes it perfect training data for AI.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  We can just use an AI to describe the images /s

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨In bizarre move, Framework embraces deeply extremist views⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s hard for me to understand how people in movements like repairability, anti obsolescence, open source, open hardware, and similar causes, can have such views. It seems so contradictory… and yet, so common.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My mom always said when she had to see unavoidable ads:
  “The money they spent making those ads, they could have used to reduce the prices instead!”

  It’s funny to see her getting angry and reacting like that every time

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon launches Vega OS, its Android replacement for Fire TV with no sideloading⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  At this point, if I ever need to buy a new tv, I’m looking for a dumb one, that just displays images from a source, and that’s it. Maybe I won’t even get a tv, but just use a big monitor attached to a raspberry pi or a tv box or similar.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A robot programmed to act like a 7-year-old girl works to combat fear and loneliness in hospitals⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Doctors, euthanize me, please!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A robot programmed to act like a 7-year-old girl works to combat fear and loneliness in hospitals⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That would just make me feel fear and loneliness

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Whether you use AI, think it's a "fun stupid thing for memes", or even ignore it, you should know it's already polluting worse than global air travel.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  if they take the water and doesn't return to the source: there will be less available water in the water body, and it can lead to scarcity. If they take it and return, but at a higher temperature, or along with pollutants, it can impact the life in the water body. If they treat the water before returning, to be closest to the original properties, there will be little impact, but it means using more energy and resources for the treatment

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If a country needs to employ state-sponsored patriotism, it's usually because there's nothing to be proud of about the country.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  OR because the elites don't like the things that make people proud of, and want to force their version of patriotism into everyone

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨MIT Study Finds AI Use Reprograms the Brain, Leading to Cognitive Decline⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You're not a dinosaur. Making people feel old and out of the trend is exactly one of the strategies used by big techs to shove their stuff into people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anthropic’s auto-clicking AI Chrome extension raises browser-hijacking concerns⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  only respond to painful cookie request menus to reject cookies

  You can do that just with ublock with the annoyance list, or using an extension like i don't care about cookies. Simple and efficient, no need for an "ai agent" for that

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New Threat Research Reveals AI crawlers make up almost 80% of AI bot traffic, Meta Leads AI Crawling As ChatGPT Dominates Real-Time Web Traffic⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Aren't those requests made from client devices?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Solar panels in space could cut Europe's renewable energy needs by 80%⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Wouldn't that bring more solar energy to earth and contribute to energy imbalance?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ChatGPT 5 power consumption could be as much as eight times higher than GPT 4 — research institute estimates medium-sized GPT-5 response can consume up to 40 watt-hours of electricity⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe you're mixing Wh with kWh, but still, 40Wh is a lot for a single request

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reddit will block the Internet Archive⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  In a way, the entire lemmy community is the fuckreddit sub

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Debian project is proud to release Debian 13 "Trixie", a major update that brings new features, updated components, and numerous other improvements⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean low value as in a low number. Sorry for the confusion.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Debian project is proud to release Debian 13 "Trixie", a major update that brings new features, updated components, and numerous other improvements⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I find it a surprisingly low value. I can store all the current debian packages in my storage media at home, that's crazy! FOSS really tends to be lean and efficient.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The UK Grid is currently 80% renewable energy (and 10% nuclear)⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Is that for real, or are there some tricks, like buying energy from somewhere and not aggregating in the data?
