Looks cool, when can we have that tech in a tablet for reading?

Oof, I wouldn't want that in any community, but a community specifically about disinformation is particularly disturbing. I reported this thread to the mods, if it's not removed shortly I guess I'll be reporting it to my instance admins for removal too.

I notice that a lot of mods on the fediverse sadly carry over the reddit tradition of doing the bare minimum amount of actual moderating.

Are these the same people that refused to suspend Kiwi Farms and 8chan?

This post is disinformation with an editorialized post title. Here is the actual source: https://www.semafor.com/article/01/03/2026/new-york-times-washington-post-held-off-on-reporting-venezuela-raid

The decisions in the New York and Washington newsrooms to maintain official secrecy is in keeping with longstanding American journalistic traditions — even at a moment of unprecedented mutual hostility between the American president and a legacy media that continues to dominate national security reporting.

Tl;dr: the only thing that's surprising is that they kept this tradition even with Trump's attacks on them. whatever your feelings on the topic this behavior is not our of the ordinary.

Seriously it's not even an honorific, it just describes the most newsworthy people from that year

It is "the architects of ai", which is a bunch of tech CEOs, so even worse.

I think your URL to the github is a hyperlink back to this post...

I wish I was never born to hear this, thank you for sharing.

I love the description.

Hey everyone, so you just finished setting up the *Arr stack and your dashboards lookin crisp. But you look at your htop and see... unused RAM. It’s disgusting, isn't it?

Yes exactly. And I actually believe that artificial intelligence could be a real thing that we might one day describe as a person that makes real art. But everything I see tells me that LLMs are not a path towards that.

 
 

I have a button that triggers a script for bedtime to turn off all lights, and, if pressed again, checks to see if all lights are off and if so, turns a few (like the bathroom light) on.

My problem is one or two of the lights (connected via Zigbee2Mqtt) are often powered off at the switch on the lamp, meaning HA still sees them as "on" until the power is restored and they can be turned "off" via the app. The lights cannot be turned "off" (in HA) manually.

Is there any good solution for detecting when a light goes missing and turning it "off" in HA?

 

I've always wanted to find out what happened to that guy but also the mystery is part of what makes it so compelling.

 
 
 

/c/fuckai has two dozen mods but ironically only time I've ever seen them take action on anyone was when they removed my post asking for recs for a community with more active moderation (lol)

I'd like to discuss generative AI from a highly skeptical perspective but with higher standards of quality and without all the mouth-frothy raging and bad memes of /c/fuckai.

Does anywhere else like that exist on the fediverse? I don't care if it's small/underutilized. And no I'm not interested in creating it myself.
