That's some very nice honey you got there, be a shame if it all burned down

That's not an answer

Why don't some people never gain any weight no matter how much they eat? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
[–] EmbarrassedDrum@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 weeks ago

Nah. I know some people like that (my brother, me) and it's not just age. My other siblings at the same age were different, and me and my brother carry it through all the 20s

Copilot exposes private GitHub pages, some removed by Microsoft in c/cybersecurity@sh.itjust.works

Repositories, once set to public and later to private, still accessible through Copilot.

You can say the same about the Wayback machine. Pretty much its use

It's a funny subject too. Maybe try bringing it up as a half joke and be like "OK but now fr what am I supposed to do??"

Why does it seem like every TV series I've ever watched gets cancelled/rushed/incomplete ending, while movies (even those in a film series/trilogy) rarely face the same problem? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

Usually 6 to 8 episodes

Malwarebytes "AI detection" giving false positive from pirated software? in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com
[–] EmbarrassedDrum@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 2 months ago

If I were in your position, I wouldn't have installed it. VT got 37 vendors to flag it.

And it's very common for cracked programs to contain some malware, so my trust wasn't high to begin with. I'm always skeptical about this kind of thing.

What realistically would happen if someone came back to life from the dead ? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
[–] EmbarrassedDrum@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 months ago

True. I can imagine a kafkaic scene with the reborn person talking to some official, telling them that they're dead and they can't be of any help, despite them standing right in front of them.

what unbiased media sources do you use? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
[–] EmbarrassedDrum@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 months ago

This project looks cool, but just a friendly reminder that LLMs can be biased too, so take that into consideration.

In general, any summary is a form of bias - you decide what is important and what can be left out. Relying on summarizes leaves you vulnerable to the summarizer's own bias - in this case an LLM, which is no innocent of biases.

In my onion, agreeing with Jet here, reading different sources from different countries yourself is probably the best.

Might take more time, but if it's a story you're interested in and not something you do because you have to then it's different.

Are there any uncensored LLM available publicly? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

I'm browsing from Israel and I'm blocked. Guess it's Anti-Semitic as well. /J

My VPN on Android fails to reconnect automatically any time the connection is interupted. Why? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
[–] EmbarrassedDrum@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

first, give a try to other VPNs - see if the problem's solved.

second - try connecting to a different network or server.

I know I had problems with that, when my ISP would block vpn addresses. so either trying a different server, or connecting to a different network would solve the problem.

Self hosting LLMs on a remote VPS (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
 

Hi all, I'd like to hear some suggestions on self hosting LLMs on a remote server, and accessing said LLM via a client app or a convenient website. Either hear about your setups or products you got good impression on.

I've hosted Ollama before but I don't think it's intented for remote use. On the other hand I'm not really an expert and maybe there's other things to do like add-ons.

Thanks in advance!

Help Needed: Transferring Content to Oracle Cloud VPS (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Hey,

I'm looking for suggestions on how to efficiently transfer content to my Oracle Cloud VPS.

What I've Tried:

Telegram Bot: I set up a Telegram bot that saves files locally on the server.

Pros: Easy to use, quick access to files from Telegram.

Cons: Limited to what's available on Telegram, and uploading is slow and impractical.

aria2c: I attempted to use aria2c but couldn't get it to work properly. Is it possible that Oracle Cloud is blocking P2P communication like torrents?

What I Need:

A more convenient method to transfer content to my VPS. I haven't been able to get torrents to work, so any alternative solutions would be appreciated. Additionally, if you know of any direct download sites for content like movies and shows that don't use P2P, that would be helpful.

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: while there are plenty of ways to get stuff from my computer to the VPS (and I'll try some of them), I thought to get things directly to the VPS. it has fast and stable internet connection, unlike my laptop.

[Seeking] something to replace chat with self in WhatsApp/Telegram (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
 

So I'm using a lot the option to chat myself in apps like WhatsApp or Telegram. But I don't wanna put my trust in them.

I tried about using NextCloud (I have an instance) Talk, but I'm not satisfied: the app won't load if I have no internet connection.

What I am actually looking for:

  • something with cross client sync that sync is ideally on my server
  • simple to use like sending message to self but with good search options, maybe even tagging
  • ability to send images, files etc
  • caches offline on clients

thanks.

P.S. wasn't really sure what tag to use here. Help seems like I'd use when I have an issue with an existing project. but I'm looking for a new one so I used this.

thanks!
