This "outlet" is barely a news outlet and keeps getting posted on Lemmy recently...

Edit: over the past 12 days OP has posted 7 articles posted by the same user. I think I see what's going on here...

Well if you go by the numbers, we are lol

I haven't played around with tails in a while, are updates lagging?

One can only hope. Sponsor block helps a lot with that as well, FYI!

Honestly one of my favorite uses for AI at this point. Summarizing videos and extracting key points to scan as opposed to watching long videos.

I used to use Keepass and sync thing and would consistently run into conflicts between my desktop and mobile entries. Maybe there's a better way to do it that I'm missing, but that was very annoying

There should really be push notifications around installed apps with known vulns... Its tracked here: https://forum.f-droid.org/t/vulnerability-warnings-in-f-droid-app/20505

Could someone with a gitlab account open a feature request on the f droid repo?

I tried to open an account but it required email + cell phone (it picked up my VoIP number) and a credit card....

I also dont like videos for this stuff. Summarized using kagi's universal summarizer, sharing here:

  • The integration of Rust into the Linux kernel has been a contentious topic, with some long-term maintainers resisting the changes required for memory-safe Rust code.
  • The debate over Rust vs. C in the Linux kernel has taken on "almost religious overtones" in certain areas, reflecting the differing design philosophies and expectations.
  • Linus Torvalds sees the Rust discussion as a positive thing, as it has "livened up some of the discussions" and shows how much people care about the kernel.
  • Not everyone in the kernel community understands everything about the kernel, and specialization is common - some focus on drivers, others on architectures, filesystems, etc. The same is true for Rust and C.
  • Linus does not think the Rust integration is a failure, as it's still early, and even if it were, that's how the community learns and improves.
  • The challenge is that Rust's memory-safe architecture requires changes to the existing infrastructure, which some long-time maintainers, like the DRM subsystem people, are resistant to.
  • The Linux kernel has developed a lot of its own memory safety infrastructure over time for C, which has allowed incremental changes, whereas the Rust changes are more "in your face."
  • Despite the struggles with Rust integration, Linus believes Linux is so widely used and entrenched that alternative "bottom-up grown-up from the start Rust kernels" are unlikely to displace it.
  • Linus sees the embedded/IoT space as an area where alternative kernels built around different languages like Rust may emerge, but does not see Linux losing its dominance as a general-purpose OS.
  • Overall, Linus views the Rust debate as a positive sign of the community's passion and an opportunity to learn, even if the integration process is challenging.

is it not relatively trivial to pre-vet content before they train it? at least with aigen text it should be.

That's odd behavior, haven't seen that before myself. I had to try a few times, the command that finally got it to sync for me was as follows:

rclone sync ./borg crypt:/borg/ --verbose --retries=10 --low-level-retries=20 --drive-chunk-size=32M --protondrive-2fa 123456

then I followed up with a --protondrive-replace-existing-draft=true to fix the remaining errors.

YMMV. Hope you're able to get it working!

 

Hi, all!

Aurora has mainly been rendered useless to me, since they started banning/ratelimiting a lot of the accounts in use on that platform.

I mainly stick to FOSS apps, but for instances where that isnt feasible, it was nice to be able to fall back on aurora store.

Any suggestions?
