  • Benefits of RSS? Where should I look for trustworthy feeds?

    Jump

  • I'd add that Social Media kind of took over this role for most regular users

    I agree, and that fact scares me tbh. But that's more of a privacy concern with social media and less an adventage of RSS. Some RSS feeds do require you to click through for the full article, having another opportunity for tracking.

  • I've asked some DJ's what radio they listen too and NTS has been unanimously answered. Very good variety, playlist for any mood and discovery is great as well.

  • RSS feeds are a way to aggregate articles from many websites all in one feed. There's no inherite privacy advantages. The main advantage is you can group many RSS feeds into your preferred categories and see a list of all the articles of your interests, without having to visit each website separately.

    You can start here, a currated list of many feeds. I use Feeder on android and FreshRSS as a self-hosted curration tool but also to connect RSS feeds to services of mine.

  • What's up, selfhosters? - Sunday thread

  • Mine is using about 100GB atm, ran it on a 40GB to start but the data management was a bit much. Good luck though!

  • I've been using OVH without issues. How big is your drive space though? Lemmy uses quite a bit. Federation can take some time too.

  • I tried, but I like information density and the new UI is a horrible waste of space. I get why people like it and it's way more modern, I'm saying loads of people who used reddit from the start will probably never get used to the new UI, mostly because of the customizability and open API.

    Reddit didn't have apps in the beginning, so we made them over the years perfecting the UI. I settled on baconreader with a compact view, but it and so many others died when the API was purged. I patched my app and can still use it to this day, but I don't because fuck them.

  • Same, my mouth dropped reading the article.

  • Doom NPCs with Zero-Knowledge Proofs

    Jump

  • The way AI is trained today creates a black box solution, the author says only the developers of the model know what goes on inside the black box.

    This is major pain point in AI, where we are trying to understand it so we can make it better and more reliable. The author mentions that unless AI companies open source their work, it's impossible for everyone else to 'debug' the circuit.

    Zero knowledge proofs are how they are trying to combat this, using mathematical algorithms they are trying to verify the output of an AI model in real time, without having to know the underlying intellectual property.

    This could be used to train AI further and increase the reliability of AI drastically, so it could be used to make more important decisions and adhere much more easily to the strategies for which they are deployed.

  • are there any lemmy instances that are 13+ like how other platforms are, or are they all 18+?

    Jump

  • It doesn't have to know, the processed data that is regulated is about much more than just our participation in the Fediverse. Like ip's, analytical, usage data and so on, things that are only shared between you and your lemmy instance. That's what's awesome about self hosting.

    Participation could fall under the same laws as email, all the other data is yours. And as another user suggested, self hosting your instance and currating federation is probably fine. I'm not a lawyer this is not legal advice

  • are there any lemmy instances that are 13+ like how other platforms are, or are they all 18+?

    Jump

  • It's a regulation thing I would assume, processing under age data is heavily regulated everywhere so any social media that goes for 13+ probably has a team of lawyers.

  • I feel like most the old school redditors have long migrated, I've only ever heard good things about the new UI from relatively new users.

    Lemmy is old reddit, if not OG internet ethos.

  • I didn't know you were supposed to disable root user...

  • Sure yeah it's a discovery tool OOTB, but I've used it to perform specific packet sequences as well.

  • Also does anyone still port knock these days?

    Enter Masscan, probably a net negative for the internet, so use with care.

  • Single-photon LiDAR delivers detailed 3D images at distances up to 1 kilometer

    Jump

  • Hey YouTube, today we're testing this photon detector I found browsing ebay that was sold by some friendly russians. It's been collecting dust for 10 years but due to some recent developments it's as relevant as ever! Now I'll be able to see the feds coming from miles away!

  • Any word on the screen? Would be sad if it wasn't OLED but it wouldn't surprise me if they wanted to cut cost for the base model.

  • Name one thing you don't believe in, but you wish was actually true.

    Jump

  • I'll do some reading, any recommendations would be appreciated!

    Religion to me has always seemed as a way to create order in a seemingly orderless world, rationality set aside. I like philosophy for this reason, although it can be very pretentious.

  • Name one thing you don't believe in, but you wish was actually true.

    Jump

  • Religion, mythology and probably anything mystical. It's very easy why people believe in them, they're so alluring and genuinely wish they had truth to them. Unfortunately the only truth to be found is ancient wisdom, and even that can be very iffy sometimes.
