Slight garbage man vibes, but in a good way.

There’s the Eternaut, an Argentinian production that used AI for one effects shot. That’s the only big one I’ve heard about, and I feel like there would have been some stirr if any larger production had used it.

Sorry to tell you, but you do appear to be rather obnoxious right now, though whether there is any intent behind it, I am unable to tell.

Using a Pixel 8a with a Tensor G3, a chip that’s regularly called a bit underpowered.

My phone before that had a Snapdragon 765G, another pretty midrange SoC. I couldn’t name a single app that isn’t running perfectly fluently.

I dunno what apps you are using, but as far as I can see, there just isn’t any relevant difference in daily usage between current mid-range and flagship SoCs.

Software is what matters to me, and you couldn’t pay me to use a phone to use a phone on OneUI, with, if the current news are accurate, no more path to running anything other than the Stock Rom.

Why though? Unless you’re really into mobile gaming, I don’t see any difference in day to day usage compared to more mid-range SoCs.

Graphene (based on Android 16, pretty close to AOSP) has it under accessibility settings.

It’s not just convenience - depending on how you use it, Cloudflare is also pretty good at giving an additional layer of anonymity. They assign any user of your site to the closest CDN Server geographically, so it’s is pretty hard to determine how and where your site is actually hosted. They also used to be pretty good about resisting takedown requests.

Oh well. I’d say time for a federated CDN, but the legal costs would probably be rather annoying for most volunteers.

I see your point, but still think that an onboarding site that assigns you an instance from a pool that’s seen as reliable might be sensible. After all, we don’t want “one big instance”, that kinda defeats the point of the fediverse.

Also, I feel the network effect is even worse for Twitter-likes. You’re on Facebook for your friends/family, and you might convince some of them to move. You’re on a Twitter-like to follow certain people, and whether or not they’re on a different service is a crapshoot. And if they are, chances are it’s Bluesky.

Doesn’t seem to be a DNS block. I just set Mullvad to the UK and visited one of the pages. Mullvad does run their own dns. Still got cloudflare 451.

The error message reads like the website is using Cloudflare CDN, so Cloudflare’d be able to block any requests originating from the UK.

Cloudflare’s CDN is definitely used by a lot of torrent/piracy sites (e.g. 1337x, thepiratebay, Anna’s archive), so we’ll see what’ll come off this.

The problem is, it’s the other way around. Facebook is the option that feels easy/safe/convenient. The fediverse has a long way to go for it to be something the average Internet user would use, both in publicity and in ease of use.

Yes. Which is honestly a bit silly. It is (or was) kinda presented as the flagship Lemmy instance.

Giving themselves and deepseek a tick for “opens source code to the public” seems rather disingenuous. Think what you want about Deepseek, you can download their models and run them fully locally. Doesn’t seem to be possible with whatever model Proton is using here.

If that tick is there because other Proton projects publish source code, that’s a bit silly.

I don’t like the trend of stereotyping whole instances. Even if there is a trend to certain opinions, dismissing people based on the server they signed up on seems a bit presumptive.

Ich würde ja behaupten, dass speziell dieses Privateigentum gerade von Rechten geschützt wird. Würde sogar sagen Rechtsextremen.

Like Fedora Silverblue or OpenSuSE Aeon/Kalpa?

I just saw that I never replied to this. And all good sense would tell me to forget this. But the notification was looking at me so cheekily, so here we are.

You haven’t cited a paper. You linked an article in a popular science puplicarion that refers to a letter.

New Vector forked the matrix foundation owned projects for synapse, dendrite, and element, and pulled all their devs, changing the license and bringing them under closer control. The foundation repos are now archived, and only the new vector owned ones are being actively developed. They sell an enterprise license for their element server suite that, at least according to their copy, seems more performant, and also offers admin tools that the free version lacks.

If you want to run a public instance that allows registration, you pretty much need some kind of external admin tool for moderation.

It’s of course still better than pretty much all proprietary options, but also quite some room for improvement.

Take this with a grain of salt, I don’t have it deployed right now, but if I remember the current state correctly, one on one calls are a thing, group calls aren’t.

I’m pretty sure that warning used to be on the UEFI download page for Biostar boards, but they’ve completely redesigned it, so if it was them, it isn’t there anymore.

I’ve seen some Asus and MSI Boards getting only uefi updates marked as beta, with the next update, months later, also being marked as beta. With Asus, there have been allegation that they try to get out of warranty claims this way.

I’ve had less problems with Dell and Lenovo, which probably comes from them being more enterprise focused. I think the problem is that the for the average consumer, uefi updates are last on their mind when picking a board.

Apple, and, to a lesser degree, Lenovo and Dell, seem hardly comparable, since their focus isn’t selling mainboards as a stand-alone component.
