  Just like we drew it up.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which OS do you use for your homeserver?⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Proxmox on physical servers hosting a variety of vanilla Debian installations. I have a physical router running pfsense as well as two HP miniservers running OpenMediaVault.

  Tomato, tomato, as far as they're concerned.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tesla whistleblower casts doubt on car safety⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Judging by the crash test videos of the Cybertruck, this does not surprise me in the least. Why make cars safe when you could just not save some money?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I've lately been making my git commit messages with AI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I think a lot of people in this thread are just upset/projecting because this is the first real hint that they're not as much of a special-boy-programmer as they think. OP's use case is fairly limited in scope, using the LLM for something it is actually pretty good for, and never implied he doesn't check the output. They'll never admit it, and will deflect, but they're just worried.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I've lately been making my git commit messages with AI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Of course he knows why he made the changes. He made them. But computers are much faster as typing and with a sophisticated enough LLM you can offload some gruntwork. I'd argue if you're not utilizing all the tools at your disposal, you're not performing like you should.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elon Musk Offers to Also Ruin Wikipedia⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  You're right, but what would the internet be without a little pedantry and ignoring the point of the post? :D

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elon Musk Offers to Also Ruin Wikipedia⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Wikipedia just summarizes the primary sources.

  Technically, I think they only allow primary sources to be referenced if supported by a secondary source. They have weird and complex rules around that,

  FYI, Publii is really good. It supports importing existing WordPress blogs and has a familiar interface. Great for those that don't need built in comments and can use something like Cactus (if you like Matrix).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨As some carmakers run from Apple CarPlay, Porsche embraces it⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  If GM thinks they have the rizz that Tesla has/had they are absolutely insane.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨As some carmakers run from Apple CarPlay, Porsche embraces it⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  When I was purchasing my car about 6 years ago I was sure I was going to for for a Nissan, as I currently had one that I loved. But they didn't offer any cars with Android Auto support and that was a deal breaker. It is a make or break thing for me, and I suspect as more and more people adopt it, it will be for them too. We might see this kind of pressure delayed, as car purchases don't happen every year for most people, and the CarPlay/Android Auto software has really only become quality must-have software within the past few years. Yet, as people approach the time to purchase a new car, I believe the pressure on automakers to integrate these technologies will intensify.

  I guess Microsoft.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would you agree to algorithm-generated timelines if there were sufficient tools to check whether the timeline on an instance work as promised?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Don't know. As long as it is open source, I'm not sure it would matter. Eventually one would win out with the community.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would you agree to algorithm-generated timelines if there were sufficient tools to check whether the timeline on an instance work as promised?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It would have to be a defined standard. I imagine it not so much as a script that runs, but rather a description of fields and weights. I guess there might be some computation involved, but I think a standard could be devised that there would minimize the security risk.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would you agree to algorithm-generated timelines if there were sufficient tools to check whether the timeline on an instance work as promised?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Which would make it important that the default would be something with no tweaks, like a chronological list. But I would be all for a scripting setup or some other configurable sorting engine to play with on a per-account basis. Maybe you could even subscribe to other's sorting configuration.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What antivirus software should i use?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I've used ESET NOD32 for a long time. It costs money, but it's relatively light weight, doesn't get in the way of any of the gaming or video editing or programming work I do, and it has smacked my hand a few times clicking on risky links, blocking a few downloads (one or two, ever) and often blocking scam websites that attempt to run javascript crypto miners. Your experience may vary if you're planning on using "rescued" media or applications. I don't have have the full internet/devices subscription, just the one for personal computers that does the actual virus detection.
