Okay, but openai was open source once. And then they just didn’t change their name when they changed their licenses. Which I actually think is more dishonest.

Hey, our mountains can get quite unruly sometimes, what can we say?

Just so you know, everything in that link after ?si= is purely tracking information so Google can know who you send links to, and when they open them.

There’s 6 days left on the EDF Humble Bundle.

No, just go try it.

What? What does an astrotruf-review detection app have anything to do with avast?

This is likely the most asinine thing I hear on a regular basis. Speed limits exist for a reason. If driving the speed limit actually created a hazard, rather than simply creating an annoyance for someone who is willing to drive recklessly to shave a few seconds off their trip, you might have a point, but you don’t.

The only circumstance where it creates a hazard is if everyone else around them is speeding, in which case, the people who are speeding are creating the hazard, not the person following the laws, you know, the ones that are there to enforce safety on the roads.

Depends on the size of the home I suppose. Tiny bungalow? Yeah, a little weird. Three-story? Not weird at all IMO.

Very cool. Had I not just installed (ublue) Kinoite, I’d probably be trying this today. I’m a chronic distrohopper, and this looks very cool.

Cool! Are you talking about something like pi-hole or something else? In what way is it going to lead to better outcomes? I already have a pretty much flawless experience with my adblockers (especially when it comes to easily creating custom rules, using the element zapper, and testing new blocklists).

I find that my suite of browser extensions serves me really well, and it keeps working even when I enable my VPN, but something like pi-hole stops working if you do that.

How does the solution you’re talking about differ? How does it provide a better experience?

This is actually huge.

I’m far FAR from an Apple user, but the moment this is available, I’ll be seeing if I can install FireFox with µBlock Origin on my partner’s phone.

I’m sorry for being this way, really, but why couldn’t you just crop the picture?!

Fennec, it’s a type of fox in the real world, and it’s a perfectly fine fork of Firefox.

And Firefox for android is great, leaps and bounds better than the Chromes and Chromiums that many people use. Firefox for android allows you to install browser extensions!

I never have to leave home without my µBlock Origin again.

I do this using an Arch distrobox on my openSUSE Kalpa machine whenever I need anything that isn’t flatpak’d or available through my tumbleweed distrobox.

Seems like the exactly appropriate amount of drama to me!

I’ve been extremely interested in anytype for some time. It does however use a proprietary license, which can stymie growth and community involvement.

• Red Rising
• Golden Son
• Morning Star

All narrated by Tim Gerard Reynolds, and he’s AWESOME.

THEN also

• Iron Gold
• Dark Age
• Light Bringer

Also narrated by Tim Gerard Reynolds, but there are also more voiced character in these, so there’s more variety, and it’s great.

I really like Red Rising.

Wait, I’m actually really curious about this Babylon 5 tidbit. Who was that? What happened?

Barely relevant, but does anyone else find that article thumbnail is absolutely terrible? I was genuinely confused for a moment, not sure what I was looking at.

FWIW, I got it now, I’m not quite that inept.

Tangentially related. Does anybody know if there’s a browser extension or database that collects the obviously LLM generated websites?

I run into lots of websites where all I think is “this can’t possibly be a human writing this, right?” All I can do is show it to my friends and family for validation.
