“I’m afraid that’s not a choice…”

It happens to the best of us 🙂

Also, could you please update the title of your fediverse post? The article now says 21k 🙂

“Can’t share item,” was the header. “You cannot share this item because it has been flagged as inappropriate,” read the body text.

FAFO.

We’ve been fanfaring for a decade and a fucking half for people not to see “the cloud” as a miracle solution, and to use it carefully. We’ve been warning that it is a blatant invitation to vendor lock in, that it is singlehandedly creating oligopolies, and that exactly this would happen.

Did people listen? No. Did they aggressively confront (or passive-aggressively ostracise) us? You bet your bottom dollar they did.

And now? Now they come around with surprised_pika.gif faces and whine to whoever listens that they are victims, and that they couldn’t “possibly have seen this coming”.

No. They are enablers of abusers, they themselves abused anyone with even a modicum of common sense, and they brought this upon themselves a thousand times over.

FAFO. And at this point, reading such story fills me with the most powerful schadenfreude I have ever experienced.

How about blackholing google to limit the damage instead? And you could limit it further by not using services that you know feed data to google.

I feel cucked having google only get most of my traffic. I am an alpha male, I want them to get all of my traffic.

This isn’t about you. Your data is key in making other, relevant people stand out. Why relevant? Because they resist. Because they aren’t depressed, they are fighting back. And whatever the reason that drives them, they can be manipulated. By compromising their anonymity. By making literally everyone else a “known variable”. With your help.

I think Time Cop answers your request the best.

It is on f-droid (ca.hamaluik.timecop).

Unfortunately, even tho it works well for your use case (you would have to turn on the option to have only one task at a time), it makes very basic use of notifications, and has no widget… It could be so much more.

Edit: I discovered it yesterday while perusing this thread (I have been searching for a time management software for a long time, so I checked all the suggestions one by one on f-droid, and when searching for “a time tracker”, I found it), and I have been using since. Very cool software. Works well, very usable. I highly recommend it.

Only the gitlab project was taken down. They moved.

Without paywall.

Would it not be “additive burn-in” and “subtractive burn-in” or something then? Or “differential burn-in?”

the fact that you think the “G” stands for “Generative”

You’ve shown your IQ right there. No time to waste with you. Goodbye.

AGI

It depresses me that we have to find new silly acronyms to mean something we already had acronyms for in the first place, just because we are simply too stupid to use our vocabulary appropriately.

AI is what “AGI” means. Just fucking AI. It has been for more than half a century, it is sensical, and it is logical.

However, in spite of its name, the current technology is not really capable of generating information, so it isn’t capable of actual “intelligence”. It is pseudo-generation, which it achieves by sequencing and combining input (AKA training) data. So it does not generate new information, but rather new variations of existing information. Due to this fact, I would prefer the name of “Artificial Adaptability” (or “AA”, or " A2") to be used in lieu of “AI”, or “Artificial Intelligence” (on the grounds that it means something else entirely).

Edit: to the people it may concern: stop answering this about “Artifishual GeNeRaL intelligence”. I know what AGI means. It takes all of 3 seconds to do an internet search, and it isn’t even necessary: everyone has known for months. I did not bother to explicit it, because I did not imagine that anyone would be simple enough to take literally the first word starting with “g” from my comment and roll with that in a self-important diatribe on what they imagined I was wrong about. So if you feel the need to project what you imagine I meant, and then correct that, please don’t. I’m sad enough already that humanity is failing, I do not need more evidence.

Edit 2: “your opinion only matters if you have published papers”. No. Also it is a really stupid argument from authority. Besides, anyone with enough time on their hands can get papers published. It is not a guarantee of quality, but merely a proof that you LARPed in academy. The hard part isn’t writing, it is thinking. And as I wrote before, I already know this, I need no more proof, thank you.

L’article en dit pas mal sur l’accusation du Decodex du Monde

J’ai pas trouvé justement… 😕 M’enfin comme dit, je débarque totalement. J’étais même pas en France, en 2017. Alors de là à m’inquiéter des batailles rangées entre papiers… 😅

Perso je suis totalement OotL, que s’est il passé?

Honestly I don’t think spez is too bright.

He first taunted people some days ago by essentially admitting to having kompromat on most users… Which is the number one thing not to do when you have kompromat. You make sure the target knows, but you also absolutely deny it to anyone else, so you won’t be scrutinised, and cannot be sued for blackmailing… 🤷‍♂️

But then he went ahead and allowed ads to be exactly similar to user submitted content, which, again, is not something you want your users to know about, as it is definitely destroying the last remaining shreds of trust that anyone might still have in reddit…

And, finally, he goes ahead with an IPO, knowing fully that the most potent user centric trading community is from reddit, and that they successfully fucked with several established brokers and traders already. All WSB needs to do at this point is set up a back-up community, probably on discord or some shit, and they will literally be able to own reddit.

What is he, trying to make musk look smart?

Now let’s get ISPs to run this!!

OP is apparently speedrunning “blocked by all of Lemmy” any %.

Ah OK. My bad then. Probably someone that I inconvenienced elsewhere and who went through all my comments to downvote everything then 😅

Thanks for your answer. Yeah I can see how that can be annoying. I’ll admit that I didn’t upgrade in quite a while… So that might be why.

Using minio, and I don’t find it complicated? But maybe I’m not using it as intensively as you. What issues did you run into?

Edit: I don’t care about the down vote (except that it shows that you saw my answer), but could you at least answer?? 😐
