LLM are not even the right type of AI to try to do medical diagnosis with. Stop treating LLMs like they can fucking think and reason. They do not.

This take is riddled with naivety.

Not only will Meta read, train AI on, aggregate and datamine, and correlate this data with your real identity, but when Meta announces that “the easiest way to be on the fediverse is to just use Threads” then all the people who avoided Mastodon because it was “too complicated” to sign up, all the people who are basically already signed up because they scroll Insta all day, will go with Threads instead of spreading the load out.

As smaller instances start to drop off under the load, under the lack of interest as threads grows and they shrink, merely mirroring the traffic of a centralized corporate entity, users start to flock to threads for its reliability and speed.

Then Meta pulls the plug, since “no one really used this ActivityPub thing anyway, it was too technical”.

Threads isn’t about beating “X” (lol X is in a death spiral, it’s only a matter of time), it’s about ensuring the Fediverse never rises up.

See what happened with Google Talk and XMPP.

OP:

I run Arch btw

k8s have a steep learning curve comparatively. With Docker you just install the Docker package and it’s off to the races. With k8s you need to know basically how Docker works, know how the layers it adds on top work, and define everything using YAML config files to get things up and running. The networking is complicated (but flexible), the storage isn’t straightforward (it’s designed to work with large-scale solutions like S3 or Ceph, so setting it up even for local “folder” storage requires more moving parts). Even bootstrapping a new installation requires many steps to install all the pieces you need.

Don’t get me wrong it’s awesome, but if you don’t already know it, it doesn’t have many advantages for small installations over Docker which is very much “run docker-compose on this file you downloaded and the thing you want sets itself up”.

While there are tools like Helm or Portainer to assist you, you still have to understand it to make it work.

Yeah, exactly. Don’t allow it anywhere, way less chance someone forgets to remove them from the prod build.

Fixed link for the lazy: scratch

Hub is for the Dev, not the OP (Heh)

Wait so who is the atmosphere and who are the solar winds in this metaphor? I’m having trouble seeing the point through all the pedantry over allegorical choice

This doesn’t mean that YOUR secrets are exposed by using the image, btw - this means that whomever built that image would be accidentally exposing their secrets.

Unless you built the image and added your secrets to it and then uploaded it to a public Docker registry. But again, that’s not a flaw in Docker.

Privacy Badger often borks streaming sites for me. They have been catching on to the blocklists used by stuff like uBlock Origin and AdGuard as well

Bad enough they stole Factorio’s concept but now we’re stealing the fanbase’s catchphrase too? 😜 /s

The Brave browser is billed as an ad-blocking, privacy protecting, champion of the everyday internet user.

We know they’re not, but they openly masquerade as one and so when they do something shady it’s somewhat relevant to put them on blast yet again. Just look at all the people in this thread alone that are like “oh wtf Brave isn’t good for privacy?”

I mean I’m sorry you’re not learning anything new from this content but we should probably be happy others are.

They do, it’s called Chromium

Chromium and Chrome are not the same thing.

Ghostery is like Brave, they record and sell your browsing habbits. I stopped using them back in 2013.

Seems like we need to have another talk with the less terminally-online people about what is and isn’t actually good int he world of web browsing safety…

Nope it’s always been bullshit, like Blue Buffalo.

I tried to get microk8s up and running by installing it from a snap since I figured it would be a nice and easy way to get up and running quickly.

I’ve spent so much time trying to get it working that I haven’t even started to learn k8s yet since I can’t get the damn thing to run.

I think I’m switching to Debian for my servers.

He did! He was very constipated and he’s fine now. There is a link with an update somewhere in these comments.
