#User#UserExperience#UX#UserResearch#AI: "Anthropomorphism, the inclination to ascribe humanlike qualities to machines, has long been used to manufacture a sense of connectedness between people and technology. We—people—remained users. But if AI is now a thought partner, then what are we?
Well, at least for now,we’re not likely to get rid of “user.” But we could intentionally default to more precise terms, like “patients” in health care or “students” in educational tech or “readers” when we’re building new media companies. That would help us understand these relationships more accurately. In gaming, for instance, users are typically called “players,” a word that acknowledges their participation and even pleasure in their relationships with the technology. On an airplane, customers are often called “passengers” or “travelers,” evoking a spirit of hospitality as they’re barreled through the skies. If companies are more specific about the people—and, now, AI—they’re building for rather than casually abstracting everything into the idea of “users,” perhaps our relationship with this technology will feel less manufactured, and it will be easier to accept that we’re inevitably going to exist in tandem." https://www.technologyreview.com/2024/04/19/1090872/ai-users-people-terms/
For some reason I can’t log in to my xmpp server from any account other than my admin account. The client says that registration is only through invitation.
So today I learned that #apple#ipad#stagemanager only allows you to have four apps open, and if you open a fifth, it arbitrarily (and silently) closes an app you previously "staged." (Don't get me started about not allow me to size or move my apps they way I want to.)
Things like this tell me that the programmers and designers don't use their tools for real world work. 😂 Real problem when trying to do real work on a supposedly Pro version of a device.
#Hacker's can read private #AI assistant chats even though they’re #encrypted.
All non-Google chat #GPT's affected by side channel that #leak's responses sent to #user's.
Die ursprünglichen #Forum'e im #Internet gelten schon länger als #veraltet und die scheinbare alternative Lösung #Reddit hat nun #KI integriert und schnuppern die #User aus. Die wahre #Alternative finden wir wieder im Fediverse und sind ua #kbin / #Mbin so wie #Lemmy. Ja das #Fediverse ist viel mehr als nur #Mastodon und Co und kommuniziert nicht nur auf einem Server, sondern in der #Community (ihr kennt es evt schon)
I was informed about something going wrong here and investigation showed that it’s worse than I thought. My Contabo Object Storage started claiming it’s full, even though it’s only half-full. I opened a ticket to tell them to fix their shit, but knowing their speed, it might be a few more days :-/...
Maybe as a stopgap, you can try cleaning up the auto-generated variants (alternate-size thumbnails) that pict-rs has stored? Might get you under whatever threshold was tripped while supports works out the main issue.
DELETE /internal/variants : Queue a cleanup for generated variants of uploaded images.`
If any of the cleaned variants are fetched again, they will be re-generated.
My instance is fairly conservative with media uploads and cached thumbnails, but it shaved off a few gigs that had accumulated over 6-7 months. Heads up that the call to that endpoint will return immediately as it just queues the job in pictrs.
#Datenschutz in den #Gesetz'en der #EU und #USA ist vorhanden, doch bringen diese wirklich einen #Schutz für die #User und nicht nur dem #Business? Ich gehe mal davon aus, dass viele #Internet-Dienste dies nicht wirklich einhalten oder nur knapp an deren Grenze. Ich habe mich damit noch zu oberflächlich befasst da die #Schweiz ihr eigenes hat. Wie siehst du es?
🧵 …und doch sammelt und verteilt Facebook die #Daten einzelne #User (siehe oben) an bis zu 48'000 Unternehmen! Danke @mauri für den Hinweis zu diesem Artikel auf @mimikama:
»Cross-Site-Scripting in Monitoringsoftware PRTG erlaubt Sessionklau«
So viel zum Thema Sicherheit bei #Internet-Nutzing. Es ist nicht pauschal aber öfters wird die #Sicherheit der #Daten und #User vernachlässogt. Es wird je nach Unternehmen dies leider nicht an erster Position gehandhabt, bei #Monitoring um so wichtiger/schlimmer.
Are you using Dropbox cloud storage? You do not want 3rd party AI technology partners to have access to your Dropbox files? Flip this switch, which is on by default. Go to web->account-> settings- 3rd party AI. Please turn it off. Please boost so everyone know how bad this move is … 😡
If ut were properly encrypted, their !#AI" would not be able to see anything but random noise.
The sad part us that Dropbox didn't get fined for this breach of trust by @EU_Commission or anyone else - or at least not in a way that it would be considered a penalty for them...
Mike McCue - Hello Fediverse. I'm posting this tonight from my federated Flipboard profile! We're now testing our #ActivityPub integration starting with my account. You can follow me here to see all the stories I'm curating about things like startups, photography and of course, the #Fediverse. Curious to hear your thoughts on...
Well, after messing around a little, Kbin seems to be able to do both. I can #follow your PeerTube #user or #subscribe to your #channel. Interestingly, PeerTube seems to allow you to create multiple channels under a username which is kinda similar to Kbin's #collections or Mastodon's #lists.
I’ve had a Lemmy instance running on a VPS with 100 GB of storage for a few months and it has filled up. I’ve been searching for ways to reduce the amount of storage used but so far I am coming up empty. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
I ran into the same problem and ended up switching to an S3 with Vultr. It’s been a while since I did it but here are the links that I used to figure it out. I’m deployed using Lemmy-Easy-Deploy.
Ne du, so was wie #DuckDuckGo, #StartPage & #Ecosia liefern Daten ihrer Crawler wie #Bing (M$) und/oder #Google. Pseudonymisiert ist nicht anonym, denn die sind vertraglich dazu verpflichtet.
🧵 …achtet doch mal an die vielen Alternativen von #Google, die ich oben erwähnte und nicht nur eine. Ich beschrieb auch, wie ich diese empfinde und dies dann auch #Datenschutz Alternativen sind.
P.S. Die im Artikel aufgeführte empfehle ich (fast) nicht.
«#Search – Google muss wählen lassen: #Alternative Suchmaschinen im Vergleich.
Wegen einer #EU-Regelung muss Google Userinnen und #User'n andere #Suchmaschine'n als Alternativen anbieten. Doch was taugen diese?»

How can I reduce the amount of storage used by my Lemmy instance?
