  • ChatGPT Is Still a Bullshit Machine

    Jump

  • That's all LLM software is, it has no connection to reality, it's bullshitting 100% of the time. The fact that it is correct mostly, or confident always does not imply that it understands anything it's saying.

  • I bought a 30 MPH electric jet boat from China. Here's what showed up

  • This is hilarious I kind of want one

  • Proton is vibe coding some of its apps.

  • I didn't say defending, I said helping. Which you are.

  • Proton is vibe coding some of its apps.

  • The question is not is Proton perfect in every conceivable way, the question is: is it more private than Google and the answer to that is yes.

    When you opine on social media that Proton is somehow just as bad as Google you are helping doing the work of Google and that's the part that (again I don't truly believe this) makes me wonder if Google/Meta/Twitter is sowing the social web with seeds of doubt about more private alternatives.

  • Probably anti-Proton. I'm no conspiracy theorist, but the amount of pro BlueSky, anti Proton, anti Signal people I see on Lemmy make me wonder sometimes.

  • NSFW on Lemmy

  • I see, then what you're asking for is sadly impossible.

    Also FWIW I do not have the same issue as you. Not sure why!

  • NSFW on Lemmy

    Jump

  • Yes, but there are no (cannot be) any content rules that apply to the entire fediverse, the admins of each instance determine what experience their users will have.

    Not everyone is seeing the same posts you are seeing, and your instance has no rules on the topic. You could have more luck enacting change by messaging your admins or making a meta post in your instance's meta community.

  • Should I eat it and jump to win11?

    Jump

  • I think immutability actually takes away from the confusion and kind of makes the overall experience much more similar to windows where editing system files is something rarely done even among most power users.

    Jump

  • Nobody really seems to be pointing out that you are on an instance that does not require the behavior you are requesting.

    Jump

  • I would suggest installing Fedora Kinoite, poke around it for 20-30min and if you find it too confusing then just putting windows back.

    My point is that it's not a big decision/commitment. And it's trivial to undo!

  • Calibre-Web-Automated v3.1.1 - The Community Update 👬 Hardcover Integration 💜, Calibre Plugins 🔌, Split Library Support 💞, KoReader Sync 🗘 and much more! 📚

    Jump

  • Ah ok, so ignoring Calibre for a moment, what's the difference between Calibre-Web and Calibre-Web Automated? The ReadMe does not contain a list of the differences.

  • Thoughts on social media device?

    Jump

  • Using a PC is going to be safer actually because it's easier to block most of the telemetry. Bonus points for Linux.

    Jump

  • This is explaining the difference between Calibre and Calibre-Web.

    The person you replied to asked what the connection is between "Calibre-Web" and "Calibre-Web Automated"

  • Thoughts on social media device?

    Jump

  • Is there some feature you need that is sprcific to mobile devices?

  • What do we think of Bluesky now?

    Jump

  • So to make a bluesky with (for example) two users is available for anyone to create at any time, but is so extremely technically intensive that absolutely nobody besides the one company is capable of doing it? You don't find that the slightest bit odd? I think the open source and decentralized claimes are straight up lies.

    Fauxmoi starts doxing people for having different views

    Jump

    1. Reposting easily attainable public information is not "doxing"

    2. Criticizing someone's political views is perfectly reasonable

    3. If you were acting in good faith and truly believed what you were saying then you would not have reposted the "doxing" information

    Why isn't Mbin more popular?

    Jump

  • Lemmy and Piefed are much more 1:1 reddit replacements. Mbin is it's own thing, which is very high quality, but has less out of the box appeal to someone looking for "fediverse reddit".
