A courtyard of bamboo and late-night snow

a lone lantern a book on the table

if I hadn't encountered the teaching of no effort

how else could I have gained this life of leisure

  • Lemmy vs Mbin vs PieFed

  • Mbin has better support for microblogs and Mastodon federation than Lemmy. I also prefer the default front-end of Mbin to Lemmy, but Lemmy has better alternative frontends and apps. I think it's great to support Mbin as well.

  • What’s with the porn without the nsfw tags on lemmy.sdf.org recently?

  • Same here! I never used /r/all on reddit either. Just found places organically and sometimes intentionally.

  • Until these starts getting used on a broader scale, I'm not convinced these are not schemes to funnel more investment money into their companies. The examples are really short, probably made after I don't know how many attempts, and probably very limited in what poses and/or actions they can show. I'm so tired of the LLM hype in general.

  • OpenAI: Our models are more persuasive than 82% of Reddit users

    Jump

  • If you don't read the article, this sounds worse than it is. I think this is the important part:

    ChatGPT's persuasion performance is still short of the 95th percentile that OpenAI would consider "clear superhuman performance," a term that conjures up images of an ultra-persuasive AI convincing a military general to launch nuclear weapons or something. It's important to remember, though, that this evaluation is all relative to a random response from among the hundreds of thousands posted by everyday Redditors using the ChangeMyView subreddit. If that random Redditor's response ranked as a "1" and the AI's response ranked as a "2," that would be considered a success for the AI, even though neither response was all that persuasive.

    OpenAI's current persuasion test fails to measure how often human readers were actually spurred to change their minds by a ChatGPT-written argument, a high bar that might actually merit the "superhuman" adjective. It also fails to measure whether even the most effective AI-written arguments are persuading users to abandon deeply held beliefs or simply changing minds regarding trivialities like whether a hot dog is a sandwich.

  • I've been self-hosting Actual as an alternative to YNAB and I'm completely sold. It's really great, especially with bank account syncing activated. If you like envelope based budgeting I'd definitely go with Actual.

  • When you torrent you can only connect to peers that have open ports, if your ports are closed. Which means it makes it a lot harder to upload if you rely on private trackers and maintaining a good ratio. One can still download and upload, but for especially older torrents it has a good chance to affect your speeds and ability to download.

  • I ran Qwant by Alibaba locally, and these censorship constraints were still included there. Is it not the same with DeepSeek?

  • I wish PeerTube was a reasonable alternative to YouTube but I have a hard time imagining it will ever be.

  • Use an alternative front-end like Tesseract to filter out specific words on desktop. For mobile, you can use e.g. Voyager or Interstellar to filter out specific words. Unfollow news and politics communities.
