  • Yeah I've been thinking about this kind of thing recently. It should be possible to make things way more seamless. It could just have an entire emulated C drive in the home directory and automatically run exe files through WINE. Just associate the .exe file extension with the program you use to setup the environment and launch WINE for it.

  • I think people are a bit overly afraid of SSD lifespan. I've been using my SSD heavily for like 5 years, and it's a QLC drive which everyone told me would die very easily. Turns out it's still only used like 10% of its writes

  • Basically, sometimes extra filesystem cache in your physical RAM is so valuable that something else gets evicted to swap for it

    like say your web browser's code for handling h264 video when you have no videos playing, unused memory like that can be moved to swap

  • The December survey was bugged, March could've been similar but never fixed. Before this fix, December had numbers that were adding up to more than 100% so it was a bug not just bad luck, they didn't even redo the survey they just reprocessed the same data.

  • could've been a flawed survey like this one but Valve never fixed it?

  • From what I've seen, Fedora is like halfway to rolling. It's pretty cool for sure. I was also looking at Manjaro which is maybe similar but slightly more stable.

  • I thought Fedora KDE was not rolling? I would like to have known stable "checkpoints" as full releases. Kubuntu is good but some packages seem a bit older than I'd like.

    I've been primarily using Flatpaks on Kubuntu already. Otherwise AppImage or Snap. I'm mostly avoiding native installs aside from Steam and Chrome Beta

  • I've been thinking of switching from Kubuntu to Fedora KDE

    I don't like rolling releases, I'd rather have point releases (like Ubuntu or Fedora), but Ubuntu is really far behind on a lot of packages

  • IDK, I feel like I usually get more replies here than on Reddit

  • This is an interesting idea, or maybe we just need people to be more willing to comment in old posts. Reddit is actively hostile to old posts, but they should work fine in Lemmy/PieFed since we have sort options like Active and New Comments. On old forums people used to continue talking in old posts forever, we could do that here no problem, the software supports it.

  • Comments might actually be the most valuable thing right now, even moreso than posts

  • The hierarchy of moderation we have here is an underrated feature

  • I think this could also be improved with a better search page, which shows how active the communities are in the search results so you don't have to click through them all, I think v1.0 is getting that

  • I believe so

  • This isn't the first time ChatGPT has had this issue? ChatGPT supports "tools" which means the LLM can call to a traditionally programmed function to do things like search the Internet or do math, why don't they just add a tool for it to be able to report/flag a chat? Everyone knows ChatGPT already isn't private. The prompt could say to report/flag chats about suicide or illegal activity, I think the LLM would pretty reliably report them before they get very far.

    I guess this case started back in April though, so maybe they've already done this.

    I asked ChatGPT what tools it has, but it's possible there are some it isn't allowed to talk about.

    Yes — I support a number of built-in tools. Here is the complete list of tools available in this environment:

    All Available Tools

    1. web Search the internet or open webpages. Used for fresh, factual, time-sensitive information.

    2. python Run private Python code (not visible to the user). Used for internal reasoning, analysis, parsing, etc.

    3. python_user_visible Run Python code with visible output — charts, tables, files (PDF, DOCX, XLSX, etc.).

    4. canmore Create and update canvas documents (markdown, code, multi-file-style editing).

    5. bio Memory system: store or forget user information when requested.

    6. api_tool A file-system–like abstraction for discovering and invoking additional tools. (Meta-tool.)

    7. image_gen Generate or edit images based on descriptions.

    8. container Run commands inside a sandboxed shell-like environment.


    If you want, I can also describe what each tool is best for, or show examples of how they’re used.

  • White list? How did you build that list? How do new people get in the white list? Who controls the white list? When the white list goes away, do the racist or illegal posts return?
