That sounds like a great idea for making an intelligent agent inside a video game, where you control all aspects of it’s environment. But what about an AI that you want to be able to interact with our current shared reality. If I want to know something that involves synthesis of multiple modalities of knowledge how should that information be conveyed? Do humans grow up inside test tubes that only consume content that they themselves have created? Can you imagine the strange society we would have if people were unleashed upon the world without having any shared experiences until they were fully adults?

I think the OpenAI people have a point here, but I think where they go off the rails is that they expect all of this copyrighted information to be granted to them at zero cost and with zero responsibility to the creators of said content.

You’ll need to think of “backup” as a different thing if you are looking at the free space. For instance, I can backup my data onto discs, but it costs buying discs. I can also make lots of copies of my images and videos automatically using SyncThing (which is open source), but it requires multiple computers to really be considered a “backup”.

This is one reason I have a “hibernate” shortcut on my desktop so I don’t have to deal with the hassle of having to hunt for that button.

If you are curious, creating your own hibernate shortcut on windows is easy:

• Right click desktop
• Select new > shortcut
• Copy this into the shortcut: “C:\Windows\System32\shutdown.exe /h” obviously replace C:\Windows\ with the installation drive/folder on your machine.
• (Optional: Change the icon for the shortcut to a useful picture)
• Done

My only thoughts are about abuse, have the devs thought about how to limit abuse of a tagging system?

I found that IFTTT has integrations for hardware and software that doesn’t always have a clear public API that can replace it. I would like to be proved wrong on this because I’m definitely using IFTTT and would love to replace it. But it’s pretty useful still.

Is it just me, or does that archive link just not work? Thank god for Firefox Reader mode.

So we have techno-luddites deciding that we have to shun all browser advancements because they can be used for evil? Seriously? You can use a car for evil, you can use money for evil. JavaScript and CSS are perfectly cromulent technologies that serve perfectly useful functions. Let’s see an HTML-only site build a custom pizza order or let’s see an HTML-only site crop and fit an uploaded picture into a profile picture.

We shouldn’t be condemning technology, we should be condemning the uses of it that create the hellscapes that we all hate. If anything, the creators should be advocating for some means of truce with advertisers so that regular users can get some peace from disruptive ads.

I understand the frustration being leveled at general web pages though. And I’m not a moron and I understand that there is no way to speak to advertisers in general, like there is no way to seek general consensus on what users (both power and technical) want from their web experience. But I feel like we’ve all gone into our separate camps and assumed that there’s no way to reach common ground.

Maybe we need another standard.

I’ll be honest, that matches my own patterns myself. I use Reddit for some of the niche communities that don’t exist here yet, but eventually they will exist here I hope. I still have two separate accounts here for maintaining the least privilege principle you are doing too.

You’re not wrong, but it is definitely getting better. I think the organization of Lemmy takes some getting used to, and as well, I think finding new places to look on Lemmy isn’t quite as easy as Reddit is, which might be an area that the software could improve a bit.

It’s a lot of abuse to take, I’m kind of surprised more redditors haven’t jumped ship. It’s so much cozier here on lemmy, I just think maybe redditors have no idea what the water is like over here and so they haven’t even dipped a toe into any alternatives.

Where is DataHoarders representation here on Lemmy?? Anyone know?

I’m really digging Wefwef, but I’m an android user so I feel like I’m crossing some weird rubicon of using an Apple UI from a non Apple device.

I guess what I’m saying… Ladies… Is that I’m dangerous.

been using Connect for Lemmy, it seems pretty decent so far.

To my knowledge, I’ve been using Node-Red as a service on my server (using NSSM) and it’s reverse-proxied through Apache and it’s pretty damn solid. I think maybe a long time ago when I started using it, it might have had some nodes that caused it to halt (and catch fire) but I think that might have been a bug that was fixed. It’s been solid for a while now.

Executing command line options I believe is out-of-the-box functionality. I found myself wanting to do something that wasn’t contained in the existing nodes and it’s really easy to make command line calls.

I don’t know exactly why I did this, but I thought it would be fun to see how much of an API I could build for this app I was building, and I managed to build an OpenAuth implementation into it and a bunch of rest calls. I feel like I might need to move this onto another language though, but it seems to be working beautifully so far.

The low-no-code things it has are pretty remarkable, but I think in order to craft something of any sufficient complexity, you are still going to need to writing code somewhere, whether it’s a function node to finesse json into a special structure, or to check and make a decision about what to do that is outside the limitations of the existing nodes, or maybe a template node javascript, but I can say without a doubt that it’s been a very pleasant experience playing with it.
