I’m not sure “Reddit levels of activity” is necessarily a good thing :)
But yeah that takes some getting used to for sure. I would think this is one of the more popular communities here for kinda obvious reasons given the nature of Lemmy. I’ve only been here since the first great migration but I’ve already seen Lemmy in general grow tremendously.
I’ve got lab machines sitting idle. I know what I’m doing come Monday.
Yeah I guess if they were being especially nefarious they could supply two different scripts based on user-agent. But I meant what you said anyways… :) I download and then read through the script. I know this is a common thing and people are wary of doing it, but has anyone ever heard of there being something disreputable in one of this scripts? I personally haven’t yet.
I usually read it first.
Well from a cognitive standpoint you’re absolutely correct, we aren’t a 100% sure how intelligence works or even how to properly define it. But I can absolutely think up things I’ve never seen before. And it’s easy to see how that’s possible. Look at any fantasy or science fiction art. That was all created without ever seeing it before because it doesn’t exist. In my opinion current AI completely lacks imagination. It only knows what it’s been trained on. And since people are pretty good with imagining things, we’ve created lots of art that doesn’t exist in real life and now the AI has been trained on this extensive art and is now pretty good at faking imagination.
I am by now means a cognitive specialist so I could be completely wrong.
And this is a prime example of why these trained models will never be AGIs. It only knows what it’s been trained on and can’t make inferences or extrapolations. It’s not really generating an image’s much as really quickly photoshopping and merging images it already knows about.
Ok this made me chuckle out loud.
Announcing FemtoServices™ - One Packet at a Time!
In an era of bloated bandwidth and endless data streams, today we proudly unveil a groundbreaking approach to networking: FemtoServices™ – Connectivity, one Ethernet packet at a time!
I’m trying to understand how this is different than a concept I learned in computer science in the late 80s/early 90s called RPCs (remote procedure calls). My senior project in college used these. Yes I’m old and this was 35 years ago.
Tailscale or Cloudflare will solve your problems.
I like homarr.
Just remember if the data is important, raid is not backup. Have the media in another place. I have like 40-50 1tb drives I’ve copied stuff too in case everything goes belly up. Restoring won’t be fun but it will be possible.
If it were me personally, I’d get two more 16 tb drives and Raid 6 the whole thing. But that’s only because you’ve got the NAS already. If I just had the drives I’d set up a JBOD and either use TrieNAS, Unraid, or maybe OpenMediaVault.
I was replying to comment the “OBGYNs are sex workers” comment. Tran surgery pics are very useful and not porn.
If you can’t follow that logic I’m not sure what to do.
Exactly.
Not sure I follow the logic since an OBGYNs job is not get you off.
If they are banning NSFW images, then that’s why.
Like I said the purpose of those images in the trans subreddits serve an educational purpose. But you probably shouldn’t be viewing it at work. If they are banning nudity, that’s nudity.
Like I said I don’t agree with the ban hammer, but it’s consistent. However, in my opinion, all it should be left as is regardless of the purpose.
Well it is genitals but the purpose is entirely different. I don’t agree with it but I can at least see the logic.
Yeah this worked out great for OnlyFans, Tumblr, and Flickr. At least OnlyFans was smart enough to remember which side their bread was buttered on.
It’s quite cool and works like a charm.
My only beef (and it’s a small thing) with the thing is the virtual media. It has the ability to create a virtual CD from an ISO on its local storage. It works great but because the network interface is only 100mbit it does take FOREVER to load something like a 4gb Debian iso into its local storage. So it’s better to do a smaller boot iso and do a network install if you want to use it that way. I’m using NetBoot.xyz. But like I said other than that it’s great. The build quality is astounding. It’s a lot heavier than you think it’s gonna be, which is a very good thing.
We have some machines at work that either aren’t enterprise level machines ( eg. we have a rack mounted Mac Studio) or weren’t ordered with iDRACs (Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller). That’s Dell’s version of basically what this thing does. When they start selling this in bulk, like not a kickstarter, we’re going to buy like 5 or so and 3D print a rack mount from Jeff Geerling. Maybe even put a RPi in there to act like a serial terminal server for some of our lab equipment.
These guys seriously delivered on this piece of tech and I wholeheartedly recommend it.
This is like someone who doesn’t speak English, finds a dictionary, and then puts random words together hoping to sound like they speak English.
He is such a fucking moron.
I gotta comment on the mid 70s thing and how great it is to hear that. I have also been into computers since the late 70s (well and early 80s) although I imagine I got started a little younger than you … like I was 8 and writing basic/ assembly on my various machines back in the day (TRS-80 Model III, Tandy CoCo 2, Coleco Adam, C64). So I’m only mid 50s and I thought I was the old guy around here :) But damn if you don’t give me hope that I can stay like this for many years to come.
