Fully agree with it, but they're still extremely popular, and people will gladly keep handing over their money.

For me, I say "Ok" to them wanting us to get used to not owning our content - followed with "Then I'll pay rental prices. Which means I'm not buying at $60+ dollars, if all I get to do is rent it then I'll pay <$15 going forward."

That's actually pretty good... the techbro equivalent of "We did it!"

In the sense that AI is an extremely general term that involves many different technologies, yes. Generative AI/LLMs are not true AGI, which is what people think it is. It cannot think, it cannot learn, it can only predict.

People are so insistent that it's ai that it all reminds me of Blockchain. It's new! It'll change everything!

It'll change some things. What we are seeing now is business forcing it into everything when really, right now, there are only a handful of things it makes sense to use.

It's really great at giving you a starting point a very rough outline of something. That is the easy part. The hard part is turning that into something new and coherent, and for that I think modern AI is nowhere close. That needs a human

So, anyone know a good is/rom to flash on my shield? I use 99% Plex and jellyfin

K. I've waited this long, it's not like I'm going to run out and buy a PS5 for it

But it should be the last resort. It makes sense why it's being phased out

SMS is the least secure form of 2FA, and sim swaps are a very real thing. Whatever you're issues with 2FA apps are, I can 100% say that you should be more concerned about actors getting access to your account.

And this isn't just GitHub. You should be using a 2FA app for allllll of your services. Breaches are a daily thing, your passwords are online and are available. 2FA may be the only thing defending you right now, and SMS 2fa or email 2fa I wouldn't trust.

Ohhkay I finally get what you're suggesting now. From something like Mastodon there's no clear way to specify.

Ehh, something to be solved but not a huge deal IMO. I think it'd have to be something custom, as there's no concept on Mastodon like Lemmy's communities, but I still stand by DNS isn't the way to solve it. Mixing it in with a hashtag might be a good way, where if you could "subscribe" to a hashtag over there, like #community@instance.tld, but then we're just talking about syntax. I actually do think there needs to be a standardization on "groups" then across the fediverse, and since Lemmy is the only one I've seen with a group syntax, I'd just suggest we standardize !

And that's why users get @user and communities are !community. I'm not sure what you're asking for tbh, I think the current system works fine, searching could be easier, but I haven't seen anyone confused by the difference there.

Nested DNS is a pain, and not really what it's meant to do, that's why we don't use nested DNS. If you take DNS away as a solution (because it's not really one), then what is currently happening makes a lot of sense.

That is how it's done though, the syntax for communities can be searched for with !community@instance.tld. It's just not part of DNS.

As an instance owner, the amount of overhead to support that would be nuts for me. Each subdomain would have to have DNS routed to it, or a wildcard which isn't the best supported. On top of that I'd need to somehow manage certs in a way where when the software detects a new community it'd have to ask for a new cert and broadcast the new domain to everyone. Then what do you do about communities from other instances on your instance?

What is being done is the right way. We use DNS to tell us different services/hosts. We use the path to tell us a subsection of the same service

That I25 expansion? What a fucking waste of money. 10 years later, not done and already it's filled

Just build fucking trains, Colorado. How do the springs and fort Collins not have rail already? Such a huge commuter corridor and there is nothing. Shameful

"controversial", meaning everyone hates it except google

Didn't we just have a bunch of posts saying development was officially done?

Neat, so it's this a full replacement to auto1111? Is there a docker image?

I've been using dreamshaper lightening for a while, dmehats your go to model for realism if not sdxl? Not for training now, but for all around use?

This is a great time to try!

Personally, I was in the same boat. I have landed on Pop! OS for my daily driver: https://pop.system76.com/

I dealt with Ubuntu, trying to get NVIdia drivers to work, no native flatpak, etc etc. PopOS has an NVidia version with the drivers baked in already, and apps just... work. It has been the lowest annoyance distro I've ever used, and I can't recommend it enough.

(I do gaming, AI stuff, coding, pretty much anything I've had to do Pop! has done a great job)

I would argue this isn't enshittification. They aren't adding ads, they aren't plugging something you have to pay for (at least that I've seen, maybe their VPN service). To me, these are things most common users (read, not us) expect their browser to do now.

So it's a catch 22. Use hyper tech people would like it to remain a techie based browser. But we've seen that that doesn't do well for a company, and it'll become less relevant allowing Chrome to domineer even more. So, the alternative is they try to add features that will attract more people, and then they piss off the techie base. This cycle has been happening since the 90s

We keep 10,000 chickens in a single huge building whose floor is literally layers of their old shit, give them just enough room to stand there and not move around, and leave it there without any environmental controls through the hottest days of the year. What do you mean disease is prevalent?
