I expect the agreements for anything happening now or in the near future were cemented several years ago. If the US continues on the track it is on then the number of large new investments may decline.

You are an obnoxious individual.

Looking at traffic analytics pretty much all our developer staff use chatgpt for 3+ hours a day. I'm not a big fan of using llm for my own development work. I'm proficient in they languages I write in so I don't need it as much.

I feel like using llm can get you a quick fix but for programming a lot of the results are nonsense. It's really really well formatted but nonsense still the same. Maybe I can't use it right. Or I'm asking the wrong questions.

I find it hilarious how when you call it out for being BS it responds with "yes of course, you are right!..." then gives a possibly working or nonsense answer, who knows.

Also nmap uses fingerprinting on port scans to identify devices. Or attempt to, a lot of the time it doesn't know, or says "Linux"

From the article

Disable Gemini on Android

Do not allow Gemini to have access to your apps like WhatsApp by disabling Gemini’s app connections.

Disable the Gemini app

Go to Settings > Apps

Disable Gemini app

This disables Gemini completely. If you only want to stop Gemini from accessing other apps on your phone, you can take the following steps.

Steps to disable Gemini app connections:

Open the Gemini app from your Android device

Click on your profile in the top right corner

Open Apps

Click to toggle off each app extension

If you’d like to use Gemini but without it storing your prompts in My Activity and using it to “provide, improve, develop, and personalize” Google products and AI models, you will need to go to your Android settings and turn off Gemini Apps Activity. Even with this setting turned off, it’s important to note that Google will still store your activity with Gemini for up to 72 hours. According to Google, it implements this temporary storage of your data for security, safety, and user feedback.

Steps to turn off Gemini App Activity:

Open the Gemini app from your Android device

Click on your profile in the top right corner

Go to Gemini Apps Activity

Here you can turn the activity off

Deinstall Gemini

Alternatively, you can uninstall Gemini from your Android using dev tools on a desktop PC. To deinstall Gemini (or previously Bard), the ID is: com.google.android.apps.bard

Any of these types of OS that support more than a handful of devices?

If Oasis is beyond your line for what is allowed to be called music then your music choices must be small indeed.

The argument there is if a game is left online with no studio to care for it then they believe they would be liable for community content.

I don't think it applies to offline games at all.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

Yes and yes.

However I don't use these solutions for mobiles. I use standard wireguard for that

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago (2 children)

There are loads of alternatives now so it's a good time to have a look.

I've setup netmaker at home, and netbird at work They are both good solutions.

I think if I had to redo home I would swap to netbird. Both of these are fully self hosted.

Neither are as easy to setup as tailscale, but once you get over that hurdle it's fine.

I used to see this on Reddit, I'm disappointed this behaviour is also on Lemmy.

Users collecting mod status on multiple communities, and then using that power to mass-ban a single user from a bunch of communities.

Modlog show how incredibly trigger happy some mods can be. Minor transgressions, deserving to have their comment removed at least, but then banned from unrelated communities as a consequence. This will only get worse as users become supermods.

Edit: It seems this is how an instance ban is reported, by banning from any communities the user has participated in. Then perhaps it isn't all as bad as it seems.

 

I just wanted to tell you how great you all are.

I moved to Lemmy shortly before the mass exodus from Reddit in 2023. I eventually created an instance of my own and to begin with, leaving Reddit felt like a mistake.

I could browse Lemmy's equivalent of /r/all top-last-24-hours in about 15 minutes, so my doom-scroll time plummeted. I was better for it. However, I still yearned for the meme laughs and thought provoking comment threads of Reddit. Lemmy had them, but they were much fewer.

Fast forward to today. My instance is hosting a popular up and coming community, of which I'm honoured, even if I'm not welcome. The top-24-hour of all posts is now more than enough to satisfy my needs. I laugh at memes, I get to share posts I found on Lemmy with friends and family, I'm exposed to more cultures than just American which is a real refreshing change.

It isn't mainstream, and I think its better for it. It has its own culture, and we are beginning to get all meta with Lemmy in-jokes which I think is both annoying and awesome at the same time (ie. Hussain memes).

Overall, I am just really happy for Lemmy and am glad to be sharing it with all of you. May the good times continue.

 

The shield is a great device, but I'm starting to notice some considerable lag at times.

Before I factory reset it, is there a good alternative?

I have an older Apple TV I'm going to try but I'd prefer to stay Android.

Features I'd want are

  • Android TV
  • Netflix and Jellyfin support
  • Powerful / fast
  • Similar codec support, however only for compatibility. I'm not needing HDR or Atmos etc. Some of my family are deaf so we watch with subtitles and have a simple speaker setup.
 

At least 28 people!

I love this guy with every fibre of my being. He is 14yr old and starting to show his age. He has had a great life but I get all teary knowing that I'll out live him.

 
 

I was just thinking. In the UK government every cabinet minister, which are those with specific jobs like head of education, or health, also has an opposite "shadow" person from the other main party whose job is to argue with the other. Imagine you had the job of Shadow head of education. Must be an easy job, you just argue with the other guy. But then your party wins the election and things just got real. You got to do the job for serious now.

Sync grabs images using an option for max length of 1500px, so the super long images are just a smattering of pixels that barely represent the original image.

I can't find a way in the app to get a better quality version. I end up opening a web browser to view.
