  • More than 20% of videos shown to new YouTube users are ‘AI slop’, study finds

  • I mean peertube exists, and it actually integrates into the fediverse...

  • Then why do they vary by hotel?

  • On some flights, the airline's chef made an appearance to serve food to fliers, who were allowed to eat off china plates with metal knives and forks — which you certainly wouldn't be given on a flight today, unless you were in a private jet.

    Funny, I had silverware and "real" plates (but probably just porcelain) around the time the article was written, and it was only business, not first class.

    Anyhow, there's no way they'd allow staff to walk around the aisle with such a knife in flight today. Risk of accidentally stabbing a passenger during sudden turbulence...

  • Wasn't this solely advertising

  • This is just silly. I recently saw Las Vegas hotels doing something similar though to a much lesser extent where it's called "resort fees". Should be illegal but it doesn't affect me since I'm not traveling to the US

  • I was talking about playbooks mostly, not individual tasks.

    E.g. if you have a playbook where in one location you make sure a package is installed and in another to add a line to its config files, you need to ensure installation is performed first.

    Another generic example is conflicting definitions, e.g. you define a package as present and somewhere else you define that one of its dependencies should be absent. Depending on the order, you either get an error or it works fine (but ignores the package absent directive). Or is my understanding wrong here?

  • Ansible, the declarative configuration manager

    Ansible declarative? That takes a lot of effort I think.

  • The dominoes are falling: motherboard sales down 50% as PC enthusiasts are put off by stinking memory prices

    Jump

  • Motherboards have risen in price over the years as well, you could have a very decent board at 150€ five years ago but today it feels like you need to pay at least 200 to get anything mid tier. I remember when I checked the price of my board that I bought early 2020 around 2023 or so, the price had gone up. But yeah, if you can't put memory in your already expensive board, maybe you don't need to buy a board on the first place.

    I'm in the lucky position that my machine is still adequate (3900X / 32GB RAM / 1TB SSD) with only the GPU being weak (5500XT 8GB), but it doesn't matter for the games I play. So I can sit out another two or three years.

    We'll see how it turns out - I don't expect the current generative AI investors to make an RoI anytime soon. If at all.

  • Well, at least for nginx, you can specify the root (or alias if required) directive; to me, it makes very little sense to rely on defaults, you need to specify your servers / virtual hosts anyways, might as well make the configuration more self-documenting...
