  • Damn, would've been obvious from from the username and post history. If I'd bothered to look at that. Thanks for your comment.

    Jag gillar konceptet att bygga på existerande standarder (i detta fall email) och det känns viktigt att hitta potentiella alternativ till Signal.

    Matrix kändes som ett bra alternativ ett tag, som dessutom fick momentum, men som på senare tid verkar gå i graven mer och mer.

    Men, med tanke på att Deltachat bygger på email, vad är egentligen potentialen för att bygga en användarbas? Kommer vanligt folk att använda det, eller kommer det bara bli ett nytt XMPP?

    Är det någon här som använder Deltachat idag? Hur tycker ni om att använda det?

  • Much of it might be freely available data, but there's a huge difference between you accessing a website for data and an LLM doing the same thing. We've had bots scraping websites since the 90's, it's not a new thing. And since scraping bots have existed we've developed a standard on the web to deal with it, called "robots.txt". A text file telling bots what they are allowed to do on websites and how they should behave.

    LLM's are notorious for disrespecting this, leading to situations where small companies and organisations will have their websites scraped so thoroughly and frequently that they can't even stay online anymore, as well as skyrocketing their operational costs. In the last few years we've had to develop ways just to protect ourselves against this. See the "Anubis" project.

    Hence, it's much more important that LLM's follow the rules than you and me doing so on an individual level.

    It's the difference between you killing a couple of bees in your home versus an industry specialising in exterminating bees at scale. The efficiency is a big factor.

  • Really? I remember Nemo being my favorite GTK file manager, but that was some years ago. When I started using Dolphin I thought that it was the best file manager I've ever used. I still think that, but as mentioned above, I've not tried Nemo in years.

  • IDK guys, do you think a web browser should be a "broader ecosystem of trusted software" or a web browser?

  • (+ (* 2 7) 3) upvotes on an emacs/lisp meme? Good drawing OP, I like it

  • It's absolutely not true either. Just because an authoritarian has the power to act "quickly", you think that they will always act in the right way to handle a crisis? An authoritarian will act in any way they themselves see fit to "handle" a crisis, without any or much need for approval.

    Do you think that the Roman empire always acted in the correct way to handle the problems it faced, even when the imperator had full control over the senate? This is only true if you define "effective" as "authoritarian", like Russia seems to do here.

  • Indeed. I very much liked the original steam controller in concept, but the execution left a lot to be desired. Like not using the most "plastic" feeling controller I've ever touched...

    Yeah I love that I can play old PC games from my couch! I recently played through Fallout 1 (partly) on the Steam Deck. Amazing times.

  • I used to think XBox controllers were the best controllers on the market. I still think they're very good. That changed when I held the Steam Deck for the first time. The feel is better overall, and in my opinion the track pads are such an obvious and great improvement on the traditional controller design.

    Nowadays when I use other controllers, they just feel "bare bones" and like they're missing something.

  • Wow that's a beautiful picture! Well done

  • Wtf is mayonnaise salad

  • GIMP is actually pronounced guh-imp

  • I use, and love, KDE, but this is not one of the reasons I use it... What

  • Hey I didn't know about these guys! Thanks for the tip, they sound pretty good

  • I've just migrated most of my repos from Codeberg to Sourcehut (sr.ht) and I really like it. I've got nothing against Codeberg or Forgejo, they're awesome, but I just really like the simple design of Sourcehut.

    The git send-email workflow was new to me, but I started liking it fast! I've never really enjoyed the web-based MR/PR workflow of GitHub anyway (read: it feels very slow).

    Sourcehuts CI system if also really nice overall, although there are some things I miss from the great CI that GitLab has. Mostly I miss only running pipelines when tags are pushed, and stuff like that.

  • I'm from the country side and I very much like easy access to nature, but New York is a great city, especially with all the parks! The subway is bomb

  • I've been running my homelab on GMKTec something for around one and a half year now, with a bunch of HDD's and an SSD connected via USB. The HDD enclosure is some cheap thing from Amazon, but I've never had a problem with it. Does the enclosure you're trying to use have dedicated power? Or are you powering the SSD's via the USB ports? That's the only thing I can think of that would potentially be a problem.

  • Oh, alright! I didn't know that. Thank you for the info, that's handy to know.
