Happens to me all the time with music. Be jamming out to a song I’ve loved for years, right when my fav. artist dropped the album. Then tiktok plays the one hook from one song on their album and people always ask “Oh! Did you hear that on tikTok?!” … No…no…no 🙄
It’s auto installs and updates. Just need to forward the DNS for your instance to whatever domain name you like. It’s pretty straight forward from the documentation.
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.
I’m looking for a duplicate/similarity checker against a custom set of documents. This is possibly like a plagiarism checker, but with a custom reference (instead of everything that exists)....
Maybe look into self hosted llm. I’ve used two recently to help analyze a large volume of books, by ingesting them into the data set, then chat with the bot for specifics. It worked pretty well but there are some limitations, such as token length and general hallucinations. But they both use citations of the data they used, so it helps to check their work.
Both have simple selfhosted webui or actual applications. So, in theory you should be able to ingest data and then see if it then matches any submissions you submit later. But I have not really tried it for this though, so it might not work.
I’m closing in on 40 and I’ve had this mid-life crisis spell happen during the later part of COVID, 2020-2021. I love to write short stories and poetry, but with my “crisis” it became a burden to even think about putting thoughts down. Then this person comes into my life, we will call her Martha. I’m twice her age, her superior at work, and generally not someone I would talk to. But besides all that, we strike up a friendship. It’s weird at first, the age gap, the maturity level, and me the authority figure. But we connect somehow, and my writing returned. At first it is mostly about her, and these torrent of emotions that she drew out of me. Her personality, energetic, kind, and thoughtful helped invigorate my own life. Like a nurse pulling poison from a wound, I felt liberated after all this time. All because of her.
We eventually went our separate ways. We seldom talk anymore, but that friendship we made still helps me write. I think of her, and my inner voice sings to express itself. She is my muse but I’ll never tell her or say anything about it (maybe if we ever reconnect in the future). Martha has changed me and is my inspiration.
Been having a frustrating but rewarding time setting up my first server with some advice from you all. Learned a lot and feel like I’m almost there with a lot of it. One thing I’ve really been struggling with is public indexers on Prowlarr. In the UK I can only access them behind a VPN but Prowlarr can’t access the rest of...
It’s been a while since I set mine up but I know that most public indexes using a proxy will get blocked by cloudflare at one time or another. Away around that is to use flaresolverr. Not totally sure if that is your problem but it might be a good place to look.
Someone should make a panel of Garak’s explanation of “The boy who cried wolf”. In which he explains meaning of the parable to Bashir that’s it’s not about “some one lying to much” but that “one should not say the same lie twice”
I think sometimes people forget that this the way our Constitution in the US is constructed. If we “fail” to work together and just become partisan shills, then it’s designed to NOT function. If we put party over country, it is difficult to push legislation through because each side will vote in opposition to the other side even if the idea or legislation is good for the country.
As an example, parliament style governments only function if the ruling party has enough votes to pass legislation. If they fail to have a majority, then new elections are called until a coalition can form or enough party representation is voted in.
Here in the US, electors can basically sit around for 2 years doing nothing until the next election. Plus even if the House passes legislation, a devided Senate can kill it too, or a President vetos it, or a Supreme Court guts it or strikes it down as unconstitutional (even though judicial review is a made-up concept not in the Constitution).
Checks and balances in the Constitution are designed to cause gridlock and dysfunction. When they say “dysfunction in Congress is here to stay”…they should say “dysfunction has always been here, we just noticed it.”
I agree, political parties have taken over. They ruled the day after Washington bid his farewell and went off into the sunset. Federalist v. Dem-Rep, Whigs v. Dems, Rep. v. Dems or whatever political name they call themselves foster a hope for “bipartisanship” but it is clearly lacking.
But I guess I wasn’t clear in the my last post. The system is designed, to cause grid-lock if both sides stop working together. Currently political parties (or at least some) believe sharing power is antitheical to political governance. One party wins the House of Rep., the minority party votes in opposition. This still doesn’t stop bipartisan bills from forming and passing. If it does happen, then the system is working as intended. If we fail to cooperate, then gridlock happens, and dysfunction occurs. The founders I believe intended it to be that way. It just seems as if the news suddenly realized that dysfunction is this new concept. When it’s how’s it’s always been when shit hits the fan.
As for the branches of government, many have failed to jealously guarding their powers. Congress has effectively given up declaring war. Allowing standing orders on military “engagements” to become perpetual. Give up their power by allowing the president to enact executive orders on military operations. They’ve given up their ability of basic governance by allowing the Supreme Court to dictate legislation through “judicial supremacy”. The legislators need to claw all of these powers back. But alas I doubt I’ll see it in my life time.
