Very cool combination. How are you managing single sign on with all those services?

Open source is about ideas being freely shared and iterated on. Open hardware has benefits, making a lot of things more accessible to people. It’s not the end all of sustainability, but it doesn’t pretend to be either.

Discord movie night with some friends. Double feature of First Wives Club and My Big Fat Greek Wedding.

I see season 1-9 packs on both IPT and TL.

To be fair that’s a pretty recent development. Jellyfin apps for smart tvs are only just becoming stable enough for real use. Plex was the only option for a long time.

S1m0ne 2: crypto boogaloo

Digital assistants are good for timers, turning on smart lights, and sometimes playing music. None of those things require a large language model to spit random text back at me.

Check some recent comments, they used the correct term to describe themselves.

There are quite a few creators who are primarily funded off patreon and release content to YouTube. I imagine a group like MCDM (Matt Colville) who has patreon, merch, crowdfunding, and products doesn’t really care about ad revenue.

The headline gives a bad first impression but I think the text itself has an interesting point. As it stands right now (in the US) the AI gatekeepers can’t copyright any of their output. So each and every piece of generated media is one more piece added to the public domain pile. Most of it is worthless but if there’s anything worth building on someone or someones can do that.

Here’s my guess.

1. Tumblr users as a demographic are closer to fedi users than the Facebook/Instagram masses.
2. There just aren’t that many Tumblr users anymore, at least compared to the overwhelming horde that is Threads. The threat of diluting the culture is just a lot lower.

Heat doesn’t really exist at an individual particle level, it only describes the average kinetic energy of a large number of particles. “Normal” evaporation occurs because all the water molecules are jiggling around fast enough that sometimes some get knocked off at the top and fly away. The theory from this paper says that light can strike a single water molecule just right that it breaks off without help from the others.

Saying this is “without heat” means that the light isn’t simply increasing the average kinetic energy at the top of the water and speeding up the rate of “normal” evaporation. They think it’s specifically acting on a single molecule at a time.

I agree, this is a wild reactionary shift to the issues they’ve seen with kbin. Unless the community “consensus” includes people actually reviewing and testing this is just going to put the repo admins in a tough situation when they have to merge in some broken commit the community voted on.

Lemmy is free of corporate influence, but it’s still a community with standards. I’m sorry you can’t fit in here.

It’s literally the same argument. A virus exists that disproportionately affects a group of people. That group is uninteresting to me so instead of just saying I don’t give a shit I call it a force of nature.

We are a little special because we can conceptualize how our actions will affect the spreas of a disease. A world leader is a little more special in that regard because they can enact policy to curb disease on a wide scale.

Having the knowledge and power to help and not doing anything is a moral failing. Blaming it on nature is covering that failing with nonsense.

Its as true as saying AIDs was nature’s way of dealing with gay people. Which is to say it’s absolutely untrue and way of passing off moral responsibility to anthropomorphized concepts.

Most people don’t run into any issues with mods online. If you’re constantly running into “asshole” authority figures in online communities it might be you…

It’s primarily private insurance (at least in the US) that drives that. The doctor can prescribe something and then a “doctor” who works for the insurance company can take a 10 second look at it and deny it outright in favor of a more profitable treatment.

Food is full of water and takes a lot of energy to heat up. The plate is thin and made of easily heated material like ceramic or glass.

How far apart are your 2 communities and what size user base are you expecting?

If they’re closeish there are probably some point to point network options you could experiment with for a low bandwidth backup link.

Expected users really just determines if you need things like load balancing, identity management, etc.
