Hey! Please contact me at my primary Fedi account: @lemann@lemmy.dbzer0.com
Seems like a smart strategy, sounds a lot like a bus but just automated and much smaller in size, particularly running through residential areas that are typically seen as not worth transport investment.
The minivans are probably much easier to climb into (for injured or impaired individuals) compared to an SUV which may have an unnecessarilly high ride height and a door that doesn’t slide across for extra room

Dang, that thing is the bees knees!
Would make more sense to replace just the batteries rather than the whole unit IMO. Looks like it takes standard 12v 7Ah sealed lead acid batteries, so should be doable for under $120 (if you buy them individually and use the existing battery harness)
I have three other UPSes, but none of them are as good as yours lol:
Edit: fix bullet list formatting
I agree here entirely.
The article is pretty much at fault here, as far as the bot is concerned if garbage goes in, garbage comes out
Nice, thanks for the link 👌
Adobe is the one company i’d never, ever, ever want to support, especially with a subscription. 🏴☠️ all day every day
The tldr bot is pulling directly from the article - it used to use ChatGPT wayy back when it was originally created, but it got expensive for the creator, so now I believe it uses some sentence interpreter library to compare relevance of paragraphs, in combination with semantic HTML tags/markup.
The code for it is on GitHub
Flash drive hidden under the carpet and connected via a USB extension, holding the decryption keys - threat model is a robber making off with the hard drives and gear, where the data just needs to be useless or inaccessible to others.
There’s a script in the initramfs which looks for the flash drive, and passes the decryption key on it to cryptsetup, which then kicks off the rest of the boot mounting the filesystems underneath the luks
I could technically remove the flash drive after boot as the system is on a UPS, but I like the ability to reboot remotely without too much hassle.
What I’d like to do in future would be to implement something more robust with a hardware device requiring 2FA. I’m not familiar with low level hardware security at all though, so the current setup will do fine for the time being!
Steroids? They’ve done a complete speedrun lol
Imagine if it was a more mundane issue, let’s say the air line in a carriage has blown out and none of the doors work under their own power. Roll the train into the third party workshop to carry out the fix… a copyright notice flags up on the panel screen and now you’ve got a long 20 ton dead brick in your workshop
Imagine this happened with cars, that would be outrageous man
With the fake parts scandal for airplanes I wonder if this should be mandatory for parts that impact public safety for public transport like trains, buses, planes and so on.
Airplanes are vastly more complex though. Four engines, flying at extremely high altitudes at hundreds of km/h, fully airtight, powerful onboard generators, food prep areas, bathroom etc, extensive ethernet networking for the small IFE units and WiFi access points, list goes on…
Whereas a train doesn’t have anything close to that, even the high speed ones with all the bells and whistles, so I think it would be a bit unreasonable to expect them to be held to the same standards as an airplane.
The only train I’d suggest an exception for would be a maglev though - OEM parts only there please, especially for traction and em equipment 😳
Dont get me wrong, I want a full right to repair enshrined in law and using a system like this just to prevent it is clearly wrong, but if it could be adapted to allow for critical parts to be made under license by third parties and helped prevent fake parts then may be a small amount of good can come from this shitty practice.
Some independent validation of the manufacturing materials, their grade and assembly quality could work well here, since I’m not too sure if blindly trusting the parts manufacturers would be a great idea as long as they have profits in mind
I’m in the same boat as @shnizmuffin@lemmy.inbutts.lol, lab has been nice and stable and have nothing to contribute as of yet.
At the beginning of the migration I was popping in and out of r/homelab, but as it stands now I haven’t visited there in ages!
If MIT AppInventor is still kicking around, you should be able to use it for this… although sadly you won’t have access to the source code since it’s a Scratch-like way to create apps.
By default the Android voice assistant uses Google tech AFAIK, if you’re after a truly source-available solution then there’s ”Futo voice input" to handle STT, and “RHVoice” to handle TTS - though these would still need a HTTP API bridge to do what you want
First one that came to mind when I saw the title TBH. First it was period tracking apps, now this. Scary state of things
Anticheats that run in the NT kernel may as well be described as rootkits, especially as they aren’t transparent about exactly what they’re doing. Then there’s the question of what happens if they get compromised
One would think that by now, these companies would have built up enough training data to no longer require human intervention?
Is their existing “AI” tech just your usual old chatbot, except with a STT and TTS so it’s usable at a drive thru? The article only mentions that they started recently using ChatGPT to assist with speech recognition… so unless I missed it, there’s no mention of their current tech using LLMs at all - just another company trying to climb on board the AI hype train 🤦♂️
Presto said that off-site workers based in places like the Philippines that assist the chatbots will becoming [sic] increasingly expensive, Bloomberg reported.
Good. People in countries who aren’t so well off shouldn’t be exploited as cheap & disposable call center labor IMO.
The last time I checked, piped had a button right on the playlist page to export playlists as JSON. You can then switch instances and re-import that data back in
I’m not sure about subscriptions though, only really use piped for watching videos quickly or listening to music playlists
The room might stink, but nobody intentionally shat on the floor.
I like this figure of speech a lot, stealing it 😁
I assume it’s a feature to prevent Android’s memory management from forcefully killing Firefox… for me the tabs don’t unload, but they behave as if the JS running inside them has been frozen/paused.
Maybe installing those tabs as apps via Firefox’s menu will bypass this
That typo 🤝 Your username
100% this is the best choice for op IMO.
A big pro is that they literally don’t need any Google services whatsoever by the sounds of things
