The testing was primarily focussed around OLED vs LCD models of the steam deck.
The Asus was only included to give some context of the competition.

It also talks about improved thermals between oled and lcd, the improved redesign, and stuff that isnt relevant/applicable to tge asus.

The AI summary completely misses this, and assumes its all a direct comparison between 2 competitors, and lists only the sections relevant to this

Ah, but now there are articles about it.
So the wiki article can reference those!
Im sure there is an XKCD about this. And a term for it

Mine died after 2 years after a power cut.
I havent tried to debug it yet. At the time, it would power on but a monitor didnt see anything from the video port, and it didnt seem to actually boot.
I presume it is toast.

If you dont need compact, a rebfurbed SFF with a 4 port network card is gonna be cheaper

Yeh, but its such a grey area.
If the result was for security only, potentially could be passable as "essential" processing.
But, considering the scope of content posted on reddit (under 18s, details of medical (even criminal) content) it becomes significantly harder to justify the processing of that data alongside PII (or equivalent).
Especlially since its a change of terms & service agreements (passing data to 3rd party processors)

If security moderation is what they want in exchange for the data (and money), its more likely that reddit would include one-way anonymised PII (ie IP addresses that are hashed), so only reddit can recover/confirm ip addresses against the model.
Because, if they arent... Then they (and google) are gonna get FUCKED in EU courts

A webservice can be passively monitored.
So, the status system would check DNS records, ping IP addresses and do a get request to check it gets a 200 response. Further metrics like ping and response times could be monitored and report if they are too high, indicating heavy load.
Uptime Kuma is a foss project that is popular amongst self-hosters.

A webservice can actively report for monitoring. So a webservice would monitor its CPU/RAM/network usage, database connections, cache misses, stuff like that. If you are load balancing, then an additional service would be needed to aggregate the results of all these and decide when its degraded performance due to too many nodes being offline/overloaded.
Things like prometheus, netdata can do the metrics.

Or, like how i think a lot of these work, just report it manually. Ive seen quite a few companies that report green status, despite having fairly huge issues

Depends where and how its applied.
Under GDPR, IP addresses are essential to the opperation of websites and security, so the logging/processing of them can be suitably justified without requiring consent (just disclosure).
Under CCPA, it seems like it isnt PII if it cant be linked to a person/household.

However, an ip address isnt needed as a part of AI training data, and alongside comment/post data could potentially identify a person/household. So, seems risky under GDPR and CCPA.

I think Reddit would be risking huge legal exposure if they included IP addresses in the data set.
And i dont think google would accept a data set that includes information like that due to the legal exposure.

Its a loose-lose situation

Where does it say they have access to PII?
I would imagine reddit would be anonymising the data. Hashes of usernames (and any matches of usernames in content), post/comment content with upvote/downvote counts. I would hope they are also screening content for PII.
I dont think the deal is for PII, just for training data

Bro, me too! I bet there are almost a dozen of us!

[–] towerful@programming.dev 5 points 9 months ago

There are literally dozens of us

Eh, lemmy federates with mastodon and other fediverse variants.
I can get it thinking hashtags are applicable. Either because it has ingested content from a lemmy instance that was posted from a mastodon instance. Or its learned to relate lemmy to the wider fediverse, where hashtags are more prevalent
