Haven’t tried this yet, so not sure anything is live, but am hopeful

Yep! In fact, I got so nostalgic about it, I have been playing it on PCSX2 in recent weeks 😅

Gahds the news cycle is so ridiculous now. Forgot about this asshat.

“The AI hallucinated the brutality, your honor.”

“Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, just because they’re a dissident that speaks out often against authority who we clearly would like to silence doesn’t mean the AI is biased in its assessment of their guilt.”

See whatcha did there lol

I appreciated that the article quickly turned to “SO WHERE ARE THE FILES” lol

Do you think they’ll ever actually be released? *sigh

Because I’ve seen the movie Club Dread, I now always read the name “Penelope” as “Pee-nell-oh-p”. Cursed.

I don’t remember exactly what’s in my old desktop that I converted (traveling and I still haven’t set up tailscale sadly), but it has

• 1 6TB WD red for storage
• some other number of drives also as lvs
• 32GB RAM
• an i5 (9th gen i think?)
• An Nvidia 750Ti (lol)

Then I’m only running

• sonarr
• radarr
• prowlarr
• flaresolverr
• homepage.dev
• qbittorrent
• jellyfin

as a docker compose project/system service on Debian server, and I have a Raspi4 running Kodi/OSMC with the jellyfin plugin for streaming to TV

This was an old desktop I had laying around that was a hackintosh when I was doing digital art professionally, and I figured I’d toy with converting it. One day I’d like to get to a full-fledged setup like yours, but need time and $$

😂 Thanks for the chuckle – though also… I’d read that I think

Seriously can’t agree more. Whatever small utility LLMs offer (I haven’t used them in my day-to-day work at all because a regular search works for me just fine, and I can create my own images), it’s not worth the incredible amount of resources used to perform a single query. Maybe if we had fusion energy and there were no environmental implications to further researching the theoretical limits of LLMs their use could be justified–but we don’t, there are, so it can’t.

+1 for Ferris!

Thank you! Also love the username–great game in great series

I have been dancing around taking the plunge into GrapheneOS – I have a pixel. Glad to hear you say this, bc it gives me confidence that I could move to it and not lose absolutely all the apps I have become accustomed to. There exists a list of apps that are compatible once de-googled (un play-protected), right? Also, I saw you mentioned that graphene can sandbox google play?

Someone where I work set up a process to provision a VM with simulated devices & networking using containerlab. We use it to simulate scenarios and test the orchestration/automation software we develop. You declaritively define the nodes and connections, it’s multi-vendor, and uses docker.

There’s also clabernetes, which allows you to deploy the topology into a kubernetes cluster

Don’t know if this will help assuage your fears: https://www.techradar.com/news/mullvads-no-log-policy-proven-after-police-raid

I’ve used Mullvad for years, and from what I know, they store almost nothing – only your randomly generated account number. If you are paying using an anonymous method that’s even less to go on.

Am I one of the few who just doesn’t use AI at all? I don’t have to generate tons of code for work at the moment and brand new projects that I’ve been given are small–meaning I wouldn’t necessarily use it to generate starter boilerplate. I have coworkers that love copilot or spend much longer prompting ChatGPT than they would if they wrote code themselves. A majority of my time is spent modelling the problem, gathering rejuirements, researching others’ solutions online (likely this step could be better AI-assisted?), not actually implementing a solution in code.

Anyway, I’m not super anti-AI in software development, and I see where it could be useful. Maybe it just isn’t for me yet. The current hype around it as well as the attitude of big-tech exceptionalism (“AI can salve all our problems”) feels a bit like a bubble, at least regarding the current generation of LLMs and ML

• I turned my old desktop into a home server, which let me cancel some streaming services… and I set up an rpi4 as a kodi server.
• Signed up for Firefox Relay (had a holiday sale) to have email masks and a proxy phone number, which should help with spam & marketing crap.
• Stopped using Reddit in favor of lemmy (which I hope to contribute to this year)
• Gonna have to find a replacement for mint, since it’s dying this month

My thoughts exactly. DRM has rone way off the deep end

What do you mean by “doesn’t read from the same directory”? Is part of your application’s function to read in data from files in your project’s directory tree?

Without seeing the directory structure of your project, or some more actual code samples its hard to understand how to help 😅
