  • What Piefed client in Android support community moderation and all types of notifications?

  • Same.

    Feels like I can't afford to get that much dumber again, next time I'm infected.

  • What are you doing this weekend?

    Jump

  • Yeah a little bit of coding

    Here and there.

    A couple of lines probably.

  • Ok, that sounds fun. I'll make it so.

  • PieFed v1.7 is released: Following People, Faster Browsing & Smarter Moderation

    Jump

  • That's it. I didn't realise it was gone...

    Ok, so that opens up a niche for PieFed.

    I've wanted to code that feature for years but there's always been a Lemmy instance with a bot that does it. Now that there isn't, that raises the priority of the feature.

  • PieFed v1.7 is released: Following People, Faster Browsing & Smarter Moderation

    Jump

  • Oh, right.

    There was a Lemmy instance that had lots of communities being populated from RSS feeds, is that still running? I have bot posts hidden so I don't see them...

  • Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean.

  • I can confirm that Pouakai Circuit Reflecive Tarn is indeed reflective.

    My legs took a week to recover from the walk there and back.

  • What PieFed's "social credit system" actually does

    Jump

  • No, it doesn't stop posts in their communities (except their posts in their communities). It might stop their moderation actions from being accepted though, which effectively makes the community unmoderated and a liability.

    This seems like a bug. Probably when someone is banned all the communities they're the sole active moderator of should be locked. Or a warning shown to the admins, or something.

  • Yes all his communities will never go anywhere, he's banned from most instances.

  • The real energy use of agentic AI / Agents use about 600x more energy than simple AI prompts

    Jump

  • The human brain uses 20 watts of power.

    There's no way using AI (easily 1000 watts, many thousands of watts if using multiple agents in a swarm like Claude does) to make yourself 20% more efficient results in less energy per task done.

    Ask your chatbot about it if you want to be sure.

  • Thanks for reminding me, I've added a comment to the bottom of the blog post about that.

  • What PieFed's "social credit system" actually does

    Jump

  • Yes I should have said "similar to what people in the west think China has" but that's not the focus of the blog post. Instead I just linked to the wikipedia article which is pretty clear about that.

  • What PieFed's "social credit system" actually does

    Jump

  • I just had a look at that community.

    Those people are all Donald J Musk's alts and that guy is universally hated.

    Working as intended in that case.
