    Well, he couldn't have known that, but fascinating that he was inadvertently helping to solve disease. Just a few centuries ahead of being useful.

  • Did not know that - it makes it so much worse. They didn't even bother writing a good prompt!

  • Navidrome can do lyrics now - but how?

    Jump

  • Big +1 for LRCGET. It is extremely powerful and dead simple to use. I'm generally able to point it at a directory and press go. It will return lyrics about as accurately and reliably as any manual search, and it has the (experimental) ability to embed the lyrics as well.

    I prefer embedded lyrics, since I know that they will be available and inseparable from the files regardless of what my library looks like in the future.

  • ‘Open-Washing’ Is Everywhere in AI. Four Criteria Cut Through It.

    Jump

  • It seems like if you can recreate the training, the model could be considered open.

    Lots of open source software performs operations on proprietary data, or accesses proprietary data/endpoints. That doesn't make the software itself compromised.

    LLMs are perhaps a little bit different in that the output (weights) is the part of the software that is useful.

  • ‘Open-Washing’ Is Everywhere in AI. Four Criteria Cut Through It.

    Jump

  • It seems pretty obvious that an open weight model is a prime vector for social engineering/disinformation. If you can't see the training data or mechanism, you are putting an awful lot of trust in the source. Better make sure that source has your best interests in mind.

  • Looking for selfhosted alternative to "Find my phone"

    Jump

  • Never tried it. It looks like maybe the mobile app is not available from open source repos.

  • Looking for selfhosted alternative to "Find my phone"

    Jump

  • FYI, I came across an app called FindFamily on F-Droid, but it looks like a vibe-coded vaporware, and who knows what server it's connecting to in the background.

    On device, I'd trust OwnTracks, Colota, or GPSLogger, then use Dawarich or Reitti on the server. That is, if you are interested in device history, which could be useful in tracking a lost device, or just having your personal memoies saved.

    These do not provide defensive measures like photo or remote wiping. FMD can do that over SMS if the phone is disconnected from the server.

    Jump

  • I had this and switched to reitti with owntracks specifically to work with multiple family accounts. Owntracks is not as nice as Colota in most ways, but shows the live location of my family. I had some stability issues with dawarich using multiple devices (most likely user error) but liked it. I do think that reitti has a nicer interface and features, but probably a matter of taste.
