tyler,

Probably because they’re trying to sell shit with the assistant rather than the assistant be the product. I swear our echos get worse literally every day. No, I don’t ever want to hear “also” or “did you know” after you answered my question, shut up and stop trying to sell me stuff!

tyler,

In a real scenario that coconut is a much better weapon than the stick. Driftwood isn’t strong at all. And in a real scenario there’s absolutely no way you’d be able to enslave someone because you have to sleep at some point, so whomever is the slave will just kill the slaver as soon as they go to sleep.

Discussing wildlife photography ethics, including the story why this Flammy looks quite displeased (lemmy.world)

I came across an article called Owls — Not Quite as Clever as We Think and after the post about AI generated images and today’s is it real or isn’t it pic of the Northern Lights https://lemmy.world/post/15495156, I felt now was the right time to share this article and see some of your opinions on the matter. I feels it’s...

tyler,

I didn’t think animals raised in captivity were considered wild, that’s why they usually cannot be released. In any case I do a lot of wildlife photography and one of the things I stick to is no setups. I just go out and let wildlife be wildlife. I wouldn’t consider hedwig or animals in captivity to be off limits though, but I also wouldn’t portray them as being wild or lie about where I took the photographs at.

tyler,

I don’t think yolo has ever been used to end a discussion. It’s used to start the fun 😂

tyler,

Because foss is usually not the easiest option. In fact it’s often quite difficult to maintain. So not only creating foss but then hosting your projects on foss is not tenable. Where does the line get drawn? OK you’re running forgejo. Are you running it on infrastructure that you control? You don’t control the DNS, you don’t control the ISP, you don’t control the fiber, you don’t control most of the stack. Putting something on GitHub is really inconsequential if you’re making your project open source since anyone can use it for anything anyway, so who controls the platform doesn’t matter in the slightest.

tyler,

If you try. Have you ever maintained any sort of large FOSS project? Have you ever run infra for FOSS? Even if you control your own DNS, you somehow became your own Domain Name Registrar, you bought the fiber all the way to your internet backbone provider, you are still compromising somewhere. For those of us that actually maintain and run foss projects it’s a massive pain in the ass. There’s nothing to “give up”. It’s all about using your personal resources wisely. I can’t spend time trying to get gitea up and running when I can quite easily use GitHub and lose absolutely zero functionality. And it’s not like any project I put on GitHub is somehow worse off than on gitea, they’ll function exactly the same since I only use MIT licensing.

tyler,

I mean impossible meat already does taste as good as the real thing. Beyond meat sucks though.

tyler,

That’s a good point. Fish populations are gonna be gone if we don’t do something.

tyler,

Ff already has tab groups. Unless you mean like chrome and then why would you want that. Those tab groups are terrible. Use something like sidebery and you’ll have the best tab experience.

tyler,

You’re gonna need a source for that claim. I’ve read a lot about EVs and never once has anyone ever said BYD is selling at a loss.

tyler,

That’s not equivalent. Oil and gas are heavily subsidized in the USA as well, that does not mean they’d be running at a loss if it weren’t for the subsidies, it just means their profits would be lower. Please provide a source stating that they’re operating at a loss.

What's a good NAS and server system under CAD$900 (USD$658)?

I am currently using an old laptop (circa 2015) with a 250GB SSD in it, and 4GB of RAM. It runs Fedora 39 Server, and only hosts a Jellyfin instance through Docker right now (though I want to use Nextcloud later too). There is only 15GB of storage left on it, and the CPU is constantly overloaded (due to forced transcoding). I...

tyler,

Google’s java style guide is terrible, even though it’s pretty much standard. not sure why I’d want to trust their typescript style guide.

Hey guys, I just wanted to share that I made a FOSS browser extension that enhances the ChatGPT UI (lemm.ee)

It’s not the most fancy thing out there, but if you’re still using ChatGPT 3.5 and are looking for something a little different, why not give GPThemes a try? It’s a free and open-source browser extension for Chrome and Firefox (Desktop and Android) that’ll give your ChatGPT website a fresh new look....

tyler,

What bothers me is an open source tool enhancing a proprietary service which by its very nature breaks open source licensing and in face copyright protections of all sorts across the entire internet.

lol no it doesn’t. what in the world gave you that idea?

tyler,

not that I dislike the project, by why not just a standard userstyle?

tyler,

not that it’s a better solution, but a different solution is that for github at least, the gh cli is fantastic and has commands for opening the repo both in the cli and the browser, and you can also open issues, prs, etc. I have gh prv aliased to open the current branch’s PR in the browser.


<span style="color:#323232;">❯ gh alias list
</span><span style="color:#323232;">c: pr create -a @me -f
</span><span style="color:#323232;">ca: pr create -a @me -r myteam -f
</span><span style="color:#323232;">co: pr checkout
</span><span style="color:#323232;">prurl: pr view --json url -q ".url"
</span><span style="color:#323232;">prv: pr view -w
</span>
tyler,

No mention of the NEM 3 changes that spurred solar companies to push batteries as part of the solar offerings due to massive solar credit increases at specific times but massive reductions at others. Completely changed the landscape around solar installs.

tyler,

I don’t know why you think that. Battery installs are over 40% of solar installs right now in CA.

tyler,

that’s really weird. I worked in healthcare and literally never saw that once… that was a decade ago now, but still.
