Many of us dislike all the things you listed, including AI.

I think most people would argue 1-3% of datacenter use is still a significant global pollution factor that is a problem.

Does PeerTube have a better discovery algorithm than Mastodon? I have found simply tags and newest doesn’t work for me.

Does anybody know a Youtube that has videos about tech tinkering, crafting, and making art? I’ve tested out Odysee once, but it was full of right-wing xenophobic stuff, which seemed to keep the leftist artist and creative crowd away. Also, Odysee was unusable from a slow mobile connection since it often didn’t offer a lower bitrate stream…

I didn’t find the exact same article, but this one makes pretty much the same claim: facia.ai/…/video-platforms-must-enforce-age-check…

I think dialysis damages the blood from what a web search suggests to me, so I doubt that would work.

Can they really replace the liver and the kidney long term? That would be news to me.
- Comment on How much of a persons body is needed to survive? 5 weeks ago:
I think the mech hearts typically tend to lead to issues for a while. We’re probably not quite there yet, so I’ve heard. (Not that I have any expert knowledge, at all.)

While true, I assumed we’re talking current day technology!
- Comment on How much of a persons body is needed to survive? 5 weeks ago:
I like science fiction so I find this interesting. I’m not qualified to answer, but while the skull is probably needed, probably not eyes and nose and jaw 🫥 right? And beyond that just neck to connect things and to swallow liquid food, and some parts of the torso. I guess the question then remains how much of the torso.

Rolling back is the best thing to have for server tweaks. I achieve the same with docker. Something similar might be possible with FreeBSD Jails, podman, or anything similar like that. (Not that NixOS is a bad choice, I just wanted to share some more options for anybody looking for some to try.)

Right, but the article does. Anyway, I got other things to do.

not that the government cares, they want to centralize most of the data of citizens now with pretty poor protections in a lot of cases. sads

- Comment on I was wrong about robots.txt 5 weeks ago:
But the article later does back it up: “Although Cloudflare singled out Google, other search engines that view AI search features as part of their search products also use the same bots for training as they do for search indexing.”
- Comment on I was wrong about robots.txt 1 month ago:
You look up what Googlebot does. No AI.
I disagree that it says that. The Cloudflare CEO seems to disagree as well.
- Comment on I was wrong about robots.txt 1 month ago:
Nothing on this page seems to contradict the article.
- Comment on I was wrong about robots.txt 1 month ago:
So what’s the quote from your documentation that backs up your claim?
- Comment on I was wrong about robots.txt 1 month ago:
And allowing the public crawler might also have it feed their AI: arstechnica.com/…/cloudflare-wants-google-to-chan…

- Comment on I was wrong about robots.txt 1 month ago:
Often it is, but the problem is platforms conflate things with the questionable AI scraping crawlers to blackmail websites into participating in feeding AI.
For example, Googlebot if enabled won’t just list you for search, but will also scrape your contents for Google’s AI. I imagine LinkedinBot, given it’s microsoft, will feed some other AI of theirs as well on top of the previews.
Until regulation steps in to require AI bots to separately ask for crawling permission, or to actually get a proper license for reuse of the contents, this situation isn’t going to improve.
