- Comment on Thank Mozilla for Killing Localization on Support Mozilla (And Replacing Human Contributions With AI Bots) 1 day ago:
Considering the other comment, yes, this does seem like a better option.
- Comment on 1 day ago:
This isn’t entirely true, some of these systems are simply not speed optimized, and even then there still always has to be one source of ground truth.
- Comment on Thank Mozilla for Killing Localization on Support Mozilla (And Replacing Human Contributions With AI Bots) 2 days ago:
That’s not always great either though because if the AI miss-localizes things, end users in that language wont even know that their documentation is incorrect. Better to have incomplete than wrong documentation. At least then the end user will know they have to try to read a different language. It might be good to use AI to create an unpublished first draft that is then polished by a person before publishing, though it seems the AI is not good enough to be useful in that manner.

You can try to help fund ladybird maybe? But it is still in development.
- Comment on Why do some people make such a big deal over ages of someone's account on here? 1 week ago:
It’s like the false positive/negative game. If you are an actual person, then waiting a week or two for your account to mature in age is but a mere inconvenience to you. In comparison, keeping all the fresh spam/bot accounts off the platform is much more difficult. So the general consensus is to slightly inconvenience new users in the beginning in favor of having a better community in the longterm.
- Comment on Opening the door: Making self-hosting friendly for newcomers 1 week ago:
I thought that stance was mostly to prevent people from unintentionally running extremely insecure servers on the web, if they didn’t even have a basic idea of what is going on. (Servers, which could then become parts of botnets etc.)
That being said I am a bog fan of the pikapods service. I think what they provide is similar to what you are talking about.

Because it is an authoritarian regime now, and not a state of law and order anymore.

Could you give a bit more context?
- Comment on As Microsoft Forces Users to Ditch Windows 10, It Announces That It’s Also Turning Windows 11 into an AI-Controlled Monstrosity 5 weeks ago:
Arguably sometimes drivers for older devices are more likely to have been ported to Linux at some point then conpletely new devices.
- Comment on As Microsoft Forces Users to Ditch Windows 10, It Announces That It’s Also Turning Windows 11 into an AI-Controlled Monstrosity 5 weeks ago:
Not to speak for Windows or against Xubuntu, but didn’t Xubuntu just recently have some secrity exploit that was pushed as an update to devices?
- Comment on Are We Living in a Golden Age of Stupidity? - Slashdot 5 weeks ago:
If this is starting post 2012, then social media is probably also to blame.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
Well… is this a bad aspect in something generally good, or a good aspect in something generally bad. (The good being using public infra, the bad the overworking.)
- Comment on What options of resistance are programmers creating to not submit to AI culture? 1 month ago:
AI for the win in figuring out how to use code libraries with minimal to non-existent documentation scattered accross the entire web.
- Comment on AOMedia Will Be Talking More About The AV2 Video Codec Later This Month 1 month ago:
Isn’t AV1 patent free?
- Comment on I'm tired of teen superheroes 1 month ago:
How old is Invincible in the TV show? He might qualify as a 20s superhero.
- Comment on Advocates raise alarm over Pfas pollution from datacenters amid AI boom 1 month ago:
Wouldn’t the argument being made be that those office buildings already exist, whereas the data centers for AI are being built new? So less of a it’s not a problem in offices and more of a we know this is bad so lets try to not build more of it?
- Comment on Modern batteries are great! 1 month ago:
Didn’t this happen with first aid videos on YouTube?
- Comment on Enthusiasts bond twelve 56K modems together to set dial-up broadband records — a dozen screeching boxes achieve record 668 kbps download speeds 1 month ago:
And yet sometimes even with modern file sharing hosters I can only get 100KByte/s connections.
- Comment on What are your must-block tags on social media? 1 month ago:
You had me from the very end.
- Comment on YouTube wants me to sign in to prove I'm not a bot and to "protect the community". Yet Google has bots crawling all over for their AI. 1 month ago:
And I bet Meta didn’t even properly seed it while they downloaded…
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
Correct me if I am wrong, but did this not happen to the music of a bunch of Soviet era composers, that was temporarily free of copyright in the USA and then later had to be put into copyright again after the Cold War ended?
- Comment on Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme crushes Apple M4, Intel, and AMD in new benchmarks 1 month ago:
Absolutely ture, your comment being? I think they were simply referencing the fact that there is a lot more software out there that can be made to semi easily run on linux/unix based systems.
- Comment on Fooling a self-driving car with mirrors on traffic cones 1 month ago:
This feels like it could be exactly the type of thing that causes the car crash in the pilot episode of the Upload TV series.
- Comment on Why does Lemmy output horribly invalid HTML? 2 months ago:
This wsa considered in the earlier days of the web, but then intentionally not enforced. HTML was specifically designed to not fall into the same scheme as most programming languages in that it should try to render what it could even if there was a lot going wrong (unlike most programming languages that try to fail fast).
(And before someone comes after me for comparing HTML to programming languages, I am well aware that it is not Turing complete.)
- Comment on The problem with overeating is that it feels really good 2 months ago:
To be honest, this just sounds like sugar shock. If your blood sugar rises too fast for insulin to be able to counteract it, then you start getting symptoms like drowsiness, fatigue, and “high-ness.” This can feel good, but it is basically doing damage to your brain, so I am not sure that this would be good long term. Then again, I suppose the same can be said for (hard) drugs.
- Comment on There is a limit how much power the pedal assist of an e-Bike is allowed to provide (at least in many countries). There is no limit though on how strong the exoskeletton is that you use on a regular b 2 months ago:
Laws are created by humans. What a surprise that there isn’t already a law forbidding something that human common sense tells you not to do.
That being said, I would love to see a video of somebody wearing an exosceleton pedalling away like crazy on a normal bycicle.
- Comment on Not to get all religiony but why in the old testament God was all fire and brimstone and fatal consequences? But the new testament God is all about forgiveness and such?? 2 months ago:
Not a particularly informed comment, but I always figured because people started getting scared of the Christian god, so they started turning towards other religions. As a consequence, the Christian church needed to figure out how to make Christianity a bit more approachable, so the new testament and forgiveness were created.
- Comment on why can't a PC-laptop boot without datetime? 2 months ago:
I am fairly certain that I have had a PC before that had exactly the issue that the CMOS battery ran out. It was able to boot just fine, I just couldn’t get it to connect to the internet properly. Took me ages to figure out that the date and time in the OS were completely wrong, because I never really use my computer as a clock anyways.
- Comment on How do I stop sleeping through everything? 2 months ago:
Actually, sometimes having too many alarms can actually lead to alarm blindness where the person does not really recognize the alarms as important and just subconssciousely turns them into background noise.
That being said, I still think at least in the short term this is a good idea. In the longer term, do you make sure that you are really well rested? I.e. the 15 minutes of boredom trick? (Do absolutely nothing for 15 minutes. You should get really bored. If you can manage to stay awake even through 15 minutes of boredom, then you are well rested, if not you need more sleep)

I am glad to have lived in a time in history where I could witniss this exchange.
