  • Atuin replaces your existing shell history with a SQLite database, and records additional context for your commands

    Jump

  • Bash by default limits history to ~1000 items iirc, and doesn't store anything but the command itself

  • Spotify Listenbrainz Import

    Jump

  • Basically: record every song you listen to, and when you listen to it (plus some more metadata), and then add it to a giant public dataset. Open source software then uses that to make music recommendations based on your and other people's listening, and to give you interesting stats about your listening.

  • Why are anime catgirls blocking my access to the Linux kernel?

    Jump

  • That kind of captcha is trivial to bypass via frequency analysis. Text that looks like language, as opposed to random noise, is very statistically recognisable.

  • AI Can't Help You Write Well

    Jump

  • Finetuning, self-hosting and whatever decentalised network they've got going on there aren't going to change the core of the technology. Oh, and it's a tiny local model (about 1/100th the size of cloud models), too, it's going to perform poorly compared to SOTA models anyway.

  • AI Can't Help You Write Well

    Jump

  • These will still fall prey to the reason that LLM summaries are bad: LLMs pick up the average, what is common, rather than what stands out and is genuinely important or new. Your writing will end up averaged out and the key things will be missed, only what is repeated again and again.

    In my experience you can use a LLM to point out typos or grammar errors, but not to actually edit or rephrase your work. And at that point it's effectively just a slow and expensive, but better, spelling/grammar checker.

  • The Future is NOT Self-Hosted

    Jump

  • GTK ported to Android — here we gooooo!

    Jump

  • I run a service that gets attacked by AI bots, and while PoW isn't the only way to do things, none of your suggestions work at all.

  • Why no central script repository?

    Jump

  • 'refuse to provide packages'

    Open source devs usually are volunteers, you can't expect them to spend hours figuring out different packaging systems for repos they don't even use 😭

  • systemd has been a complete, utter, unmitigated success

    Jump

  • This is due to systems generators allowing Podman to plug in to that system

  • GNOME 49 Will Require Deeper systemd Integration

    Jump

  • Honestly, this just seems like a consequence of alternative init systems not keeping up

  • On X11 and the Fascists Maggots

    Jump

  • Wayland is basically X12 in many ways

  • Matrix is cooked

    Jump

  • The Matrix Foundation and Element/New Vector are different orgs, and it's Element with the government contracts

  • Matrix is cooked

    Jump

  • "slowly being cannibalised" at the start the foundation was just new vector/element putting on a funny hat. It's got less bad as time has gone on tbh

  • Removed

  • Copying my post from up thread:

    Delta chat is hilariously slow. It’s less of an instant messenger and moreover next business day messenger. That’s ignoring the problems you’ll have running it on your own infrastructure.

  • Removed

    Jump

  • Electric is not a discord clone and element has a customer base more similar to slack. And to end encrypted direct messages have been the default for years now in Matrix.

  • What are the benefits of a server having multiple public IP addresses?

    Jump

  • To go on top of the reverse DNS/mail comments, it can also be useful for running a service like codeburg pages, or some other program that handles its own virtual hosting and TLS, without interfering with your more traditional services.

  • Safest CalDAV/CardDAV server [Choice Made]

    Jump

  • Stalwart recently released CalDAV & CardDAV support, and it's what I use for mail. It's pretty secure by default too.

  • Actually stopping AI scrapers from taking down my server

    Jump

  • Haha thanks. From what I've figured out, this it's Lemmy and HN that brought the traffic. I can't seem to upload an image of the graph though :(
