Writing was on the wall for dancers when Fortnite took thier moves. This is just the last nail in the coffin. It's official : human dancers are obsolete (except childten if in service of making robots cuter and less threatening).

There was a massive spike that fairly quickly settled down. I don't know where these people went. But things have been fairly stable post volume with but some slow new user decline over the last 6-8 months.

I used to use earlyoom on an old laptop and it worked well for my purposes.

I hear there is a systemd-oomd, but I never tried it.

Edit: sorry I misread your post to be about memory rather than CPU. Too early on the morning for my brain to work.

FoR those asking about sample and confounders....

"The study involved 105,614 women in California with an average age of 53 at the start of the study"

"The study had limitations – it looked only at women, and participants reported their own diet data – but independent experts suggested the findings were significant."

I like both instances.

Notice the quote says "build on the ATProtocol", not "build on BlueSky". It could be argued that the more this is done the less defacto power BlueSky will have. And people are doing it. Some examples are listed in the Wikipedia article, but there are more.

Doesn't have to be intelligent, just has to perform the behaviours like a philosophical zombie. Thoughtlessly weighing patterns in training data...

If matters/believed...

Ashton's team said that he was on the road and he had asked helpers and volunteers to "draft answers" for him to review.

"It looks like some answers were posted without me reviewing and approving," the post said.

...

"A key part of leadership is accountability, and I want to reassure everyone that this won't happen again," the post said.

You seem to have descibed your port forwards backwards It is the router forwarding the ports to the gateway pi (and potentially other devices), not gateway pi and other devices forwarding to the router. The forwards to servers are incoming from the internet.

(Theoretically you could have your pi physically between the router and the internet (modem) acting as a sort of pre-router, but this would be unusual. Perhaps you could describe your physical setup more clearly. What is physically/wirelessly connected to what, to the internet.)

Your freedom is in the (theoretical) ability run your own instance and communities on it if you disagree with or have been banned from other instances. And your instance can federate with whomever will allow it.

Communities also want freedom -- to be organized and run the way they want to be, and to be free from being hijacked or shit on uncontrollably by randos, bad actors, or even (defined by themselves) undesirables.

It's not perfect. But you sometimes have to consider a bigger picture than just your personal freedom, to make things a free as practically possible.

Is this related to the rhetorically classic Tua Mater defence?

NextCloud has end-to-end encrypted voice and video chat, and of course a whole bunch else, since people are mentioning self-hosting. The corresponding Android app "nextcloud talk".

 
 

Today, Medium is launching a Mastodon instance at me.dm to help our authors, publications and readers find a home in the fediverse. Mastodon is an emerging force for good in social media and we are excited to join this community.

 

It's an interesting approach. While plastic is (mostly) not directly toxic to us, the argument that it is toxic to the environment seems scientifically sound. The classification allows for more regulation and pressure on an industry which have proven (as usual) extremely ineffective at regulating themselves, to the cost of all of us. And when you think about plastic as a direct product of the petroleum industry things just worse.

Looking at the CEPA web site it currently only lists "micro plastic beads". But I got a government link or the order. It reads "Plastic manufactured items" and goes into great detail on the rational and background.

Coincidentally I saw another story today:Twenty firms produce 55% of world’s plastic waste, report reveals.
