Yeah, I've got it on my fairphone

Same! We don't have Netflix or Prime in our house but we do have Nebula and Dropout

Just checking, do you mean GitHub? Git definitely doesn't have copilot

I'm not sure what you mean though... Nextcloud is a company

My main issue is it makes the headline confusing. I'd never heard that nickname before and so I was really confused about what they meant.

Bombing kids isn't fighting hamas

Unfortunately these weren't the types of yachts they were going after. They were, AFAIK, going for yachts under 50ft. I've known of people who have a 40ft boat as their home, so these are not the same type of people as the billionaires on super yachts

It depends what you define as drama.

I would say this is just about him breaking his community's trust in him, and people let him know that. So now he'll need to work to earn it back.

It isn't really drama, but I can understand why people would feel a bit betrayed when they find out this person, who presents themselves as a science communicator, was heavily using a machine that is well known for hallucinations and spreading misinformation.

Additionally, Hank himself has said he is deeply concerned about the effects of AI on the climate crisis, the consolidation of economic power, and the way it was trained. Him heavily using it can makes it feel as though he doesn't care about that stuff as much as it initially appeared. And given his community includes a lot of people heavily worried about the climate crisis, consolidation of economic power, and the theft of artists' work, I think them being angry at him is understandable and expected.

Of course, hopefully he now steps back and reflects on this, and then comes back better. But that couldn't happen without someone calling him on it first.

Pretty sure both him and John have described themselves as rich.

Like they're not big tech CEO rich, but they are rich enough that they've said they don't need to worry about income.

And then he admitted he has been using it too much, to the point it's been unhealthy for him. He's been using it to generate notes, in an attempt to be more "productive". It's got to the point where he said himself that he isn't sure what his process (with regard to researching and writing for videos) is anymore, which raises questions about the accuracy of the information he gives.

Ah that sounds like a pretty good guess

 

Recently I started being unable to access slrpnk.net via Thunder. I thought maybe the servers were just down, as I can still access lemmy.world through Thunder. Today I decided to check slrpnk.net in my browser just to check and it works fine (I'm positing this from it now), but I still can not access it through Thunder.

Does anyone else have this issue?

 

Interesting blog post about what is happening to HAMs in Belarus

Has anyone got any recommendations for a small wired speaker that would be good to connect to the Voice Preview Edition. I'm really enjoying it, but just wish the audio quality could be better.

Also are there any other improvements that you can recommend I add to it?

 

FarmBot is an open source project aimed at making CNC farming accessible to as many people as possible.

 

RepRap is a project about democratising and decentralising manufacturing through low-cost open source 3D printers.

3D printers give communities the ability to repair items even when official replacement parts don't exist. They also allow people to produce small runs of custom parts, where more traditional manufacturing methods may be wasteful.

There are obviously issues with sustainability in the 3D printing community, primarily with material source, material recycling/composting, and waste. But even with these current issues, 3D printers provide a lot of utility and may have a place in our solarpunk future.

 

A cool open source DIY wind turbine project

 

Appropedia is a wiki dedicated to sustainability, including projects and research aimed at reducing poverty.

Amybo is a non-profit open source community project working on protein fermentation in an effort to reduce the carbon intensity of food production, as well as improve climate resilience as things like crop failures become more common.

The project is currently focussed on the low-cost distributed science aspect, but their website says they want biotechnologists, chefs, coders, creatives, engineers, enthusiasts, environmentalists, makers, medics, microbiologists, and nutritionists. So basically... Just lots of people.

They're still in the early stages but looks like a fun project to get involved in.
