It’s a company who makes them and their partners lots of money, any company you see pushing HP products is just as shady as them. They’ve been riding their brand recognition for at least a decade.

Then right before their EOL’s they push all their old stock for pennies and suddenly everyone has a HP product and they don’t complain for the most part cause they got them dirt cheap.

I never thought that either. It’s a joke, relax.

“Psht I’ll never use maths in real life”, maths in real life:

I’m not judging anyone for not knowing the risks of algorithmic news, and I get how we got there. Journalism as a whole changed by it, so many news articles are engagement bait now. It’s becoming so hard to find uplifting news, that’s why I liked reddit and now lemmy too. People make a genuine effort to find uplifting news.

Diversification has always been the answer, proven by a second uprising of RSS.

I’d add that Social Media kind of took over this role for most regular users

I agree, and that fact scares me tbh. But that’s more of a privacy concern with social media and less an adventage of RSS. Some RSS feeds do require you to click through for the full article, having another opportunity for tracking.

RSS feeds are a way to aggregate articles from many websites all in one feed. There’s no inherite privacy advantages. The main advantage is you can group many RSS feeds into your preferred categories and see a list of all the articles of your interests, without having to visit each website separately.

You can start here, a currated list of many feeds. I use Feeder on android and FreshRSS as a self-hosted curration tool but also to connect RSS feeds to services of mine.

Mine is using about 100GB atm, ran it on a 40GB to start but the data management was a bit much. Good luck though!

I’ve been using OVH without issues. How big is your drive space though? Lemmy uses quite a bit. Federation can take some time too.

Same, my mouth dropped reading the article.

Obligatory fuck spez

The way AI is trained today creates a black box solution, the author says only the developers of the model know what goes on inside the black box.

This is major pain point in AI, where we are trying to understand it so we can make it better and more reliable. The author mentions that unless AI companies open source their work, it’s impossible for everyone else to ‘debug’ the circuit.

Zero knowledge proofs are how they are trying to combat this, using mathematical algorithms they are trying to verify the output of an AI model in real time, without having to know the underlying intellectual property.

This could be used to train AI further and increase the reliability of AI drastically, so it could be used to make more important decisions and adhere much more easily to the strategies for which they are deployed.

It doesn’t have to know, the processed data that is regulated is about much more than just our participation in the Fediverse. Like ip’s, analytical, usage data and so on, things that are only shared between you and your lemmy instance. That’s what’s awesome about self hosting.

Participation could fall under the same laws as email, all the other data is yours. And as another user suggested, self hosting your instance and currating federation is probably fine. I’m not a lawyer this is not legal advice

It’s a regulation thing I would assume, processing under age data is heavily regulated everywhere so any social media that goes for 13+ probably has a team of lawyers.

Hey YouTube, today we’re testing this photon detector I found browsing ebay that was sold by some friendly russians. It’s been collecting dust for 10 years but due to some recent developments it’s as relevant as ever! Now I’ll be able to see the feds coming from miles away!

Any word on the screen? Would be sad if it wasn’t OLED but it wouldn’t surprise me if they wanted to cut cost for the base model.

I’ll do some reading, any recommendations would be appreciated!

Religion to me has always seemed as a way to create order in a seemingly orderless world, rationality set aside. I like philosophy for this reason, although it can be very pretentious.

Religion, mythology and probably anything mystical. It’s very easy why people believe in them, they’re so alluring and genuinely wish they had truth to them. Unfortunately the only truth to be found is ancient wisdom, and even that can be very iffy sometimes.

I love my R36S, but I hadn’t heard of retroid and man does it look amazing.

Genuinely a great day for linux

A plain advertisement on a user focused tech forum? Is this your first day on the internet?

Two headsets ago I bought a G933 from Logitech, mainly because it had an AUX input on the USB-dongle which I thought was pretty neat, but that one had big unnecessary RBG strips on the sides of the earpiece. The most ridiculous usage of RGB I had seen till date. But I programmed an interface between CSGO and the RGB on the headset to indicate my health so the people watching from behind us at a lan could see it.

Anyway, I’ve always preferred white LED’s and RGB can rarely replicate pure white.
