I broom handle that I keep near my trash bins specifically for trailblazing down the driveway.

When we’d ride ATVs in the forest the lead person had to bungee a branch to their grill to catch all of the orb weaver webs that had formed over the trails overnight. There would be 30-50 of them per mile, the branch just looks like cotton candy and arachnophobia after an hour or so.

It looks like it, it doesn’t seem to be doing any self-referencing/agentic things out of the box so the end user would need to build a bit to cover their specific use cases.

They seem to be aiming more at the startup/small company demographic than at self-hosters. This is just based on a skim of the repo and their product page, I haven’t looked at it too hard yet.

This is what makes social media into self-reinforcing information bubbles and leads people to be out of touch with the general public.

There’s actually a lot of demand for AI tools in the real world but communities like this one create narratives that convinced themselves that it’s all some kind of delusional grift with unclear motives.

100%

It’s one thing to be against the rampant capitalist orgy around AI that’s disrupting markets and driving up energy costs. I agree with that sentiment. I also agree that there are questions around copyright and said capitalists have stolen a lot of work from people.

That being said, it’s complete nonsense to take that gripe and then pretend that every possible use of Transformer-based neural networks is evil and useless.

Yes, there are aspects of the creation of commercial Large Language Models and Diffusion Models that are immoral and should be criticized, but if somebody’s kneejerk reaction is to hate everything that says ‘AI’ then they’re no different than the anti-vaxxers or election deniers or any other people who let social media do their thinking for them.

People are upset at all of the datacenters being created and also are upset when there are self-hosting tools being created, where’s the logic in that? What is the actual position held by you people other than: ‘see AI, downvote’?

Ratio doesn’t mean right. This is so obvious, that you (@call_me_xale@lemmy.zip) should feel shame that you even made that comment.

I know you wont, though, you must be right because look at the RATIO! That’s how you know how right you are, correct? After all, there is no need to actually make any kind of rational argument or attempt to participate in the discussion in any meaningful way, just find the right clapback and watch the ratio.

The same with the conspiratorial personal attack. They don’t share your opinion so they’re a secret plant by the AI industry? Really? Conspiratorial and paranoid delusions are not a substitute for a rational opinion, no matter what the ratio says or how self-righteous you feel when you press the submit button.

I look forward to your response. If I could make a suggestion, perhaps try insinuating that @FaceDeer@fedia.io and I are the same person on alt accounts, that one always gets good ratio. Maybe a single emoji reply, the effort:ratio ratio on that one is pretty good. I have a pretty considerable comment history, maybe you can find something in there. Though you could also go with not replying, I mean after all this is wayyyy down the comment chain so you may not find the attention that you’re seeking.

Put some effort into your snark and show a little originality. Repeating the “L ratio” meme is tired af.

There’s a spring nearby so the local treefrogs and anoles eat everything smaller than a mouse. The only spiders that survive are aforementioned orb weavers and I think they spend more time trying to catch me, as I’m taking out the garbage and barely awake, than eating insects.

That’d be the right area (all of the US really).

If you catch one drop them off in your garden, he’ll munch up the local micro-herbivores and also not build webs for you to walk into unexpectedly (orb weavers x.x).

Juvenile Phidippus audax maybe?

In the US?

This is Zuckerberg doing this via Meta:

Unidentified users are worth way less than users that they can link to an identity, a law like this passing would massively increase the value of Meta’s user base to advertisers and data brokers.

‘Protecting the children’ is a long used way to shut down dissenting voices (“Why does xxxx want to put our children in danger?!!!”).

i’m angry at them for being fucking idiots sure but like genuinely this could be a massive problem for all of us.

We’re too dull to enforce such silly rules.

As with all big planting projects, make sure you do a soil sample first. You don’t want to lose a big order of roses because your soil isn’t acidic enough. They’re cheap, usually around $15-20. You can specify that you’re planting roses so the results will include recommended soil amendments for that specific plant (get the exact Latin name for the species/cultivar that you’re planting for best results).

Check with your State’s largest agricultural university (if in the US), they’re likely part of the Cooperative Extension System and receive grants to provide these kinds of services. These folks are an excellent resource for home gardening.

The problem isn’t the software, there is already software that provides identity services.

The problem is that you will not have the cryptographic signatures that authenticate your app as a trusted identity provider. Nor would your app be able to fool the hardware attestation, which is built on unique signed cryptographic certificates that are signed by the manufacturer’s Certificate Authority and physically burned into the TPM on your device.

In order to pass attestation, your system must boot into a trusted OS image and then it has to prove that by submitting a signed quote, generated by information stored in your TPM along with keys signed by the manufacturer’s CA.

This isn’t something that you can hack around, it’s built on cryptographic verification of your entire boot sequence.

We’re not living in history, we’re living in current events.

In the year of our Lord 2026, on Facebook, ‘antifa’ is a term coopted by the right as I’ve outlined above.

You access the Internet through a network owned by a corporation under the jurisdiction of a government, your ISP knows who you are and so your government knows who you are.

Both of our Lemmy instances are hosted by Hetzner, in Finland and Germany. Both instance’s connections are proxied through Cloudflare, an American tech company.

Any one of these entities has the ability to track you to at least an ISP and potentially down to the nearest street intersection if you’re using fiber/cable. And that ISP will have records linking your IP lease information to your identity, or at least the credit card/billing information that you provided.

The kind of people who would be putting you on a watchlist are not the kind of people who will be thrown off by simply changing usernames on social media.

Maybe a future patch will include line breaks in the patch notes.

tl;dr

being said I had never known about the TLS fingerprinting option, I generally don’t see that shown on the fingerprint detector sites, that’s interesting.

There’s also things like the SNI field which is a non-encrypted field which contains the requested domain name. Even if you use DNS over HTTPS to keep your information from leaking via ISP controlled DNS servers, they can still get the destination domain names from the SNI during the TLS handshake.
