No Man's Sky: Orbital Update
  • Has anyone tried a derelict freighter since the update? I just got a star ship engine core instead of a freighter upgrade module :\

  • California Judge Says Because Snapchat Has Disappearing Messages, Section 230 Doesn’t Apply To Lawsuits Over Snapchat Content
  • I'm guessing this judge considers the telephone to be an example of negligent design as well. After all, the phone company doesn't record every phone call I make and disconnect me if I mention an illegal drug.

  • One month ago, I didn't really know what 3D printing was. Yesterday, I designed in FreeCAD my first model and printed it. What an amazing experience.
  • Before you go through a bunch of calibration, I'd see if it happens with a different filament. Those black particles there are likely something with a higher melting point than the surrounding PLA, otherwise they'd "smear" during printing. I'm betting you're hitting some intermittent clogs. See if the problem happens with a single color filament.

  • Work-around for the federation bug found in 0.19.0 and 0.19.1
  • I like to do things just off the top of the hour, since top of the hour is when many maintenance crons run. If you're running a modern cron daemon, you can rewrite that as:

    3 1-23/6 * * * docker container restart lemmy-lemmy-1

  • What is the point of dbus?
  • Doesn't systemd have the ability to do this as well with unix sockets?

  • Do you mount an embedded Linux file system to the workstation and use your host scripts or do you SSH/SCP and deal with the limited shell commands?
  • I don't recommend using the shell on routers for day-to-day management. Instead, consider using a network configuration management system like rconfig. I've used RANCID in the past, but I suspect something more modern like rconfig will be useful to you.

  • New 20mph limit in urban areas in Wales
  • My city recently did 15mph for neighborhood residential roads and 20mph for the wider through roads connecting to them. I feel much safer now when walking and biking in the neighborhood. The roads here were never intended for cars to be parked up and down both sides.

  • YouTube prankster says he had no idea he was scaring man who shot him
  • The "prankster" was kicked out by security the day before and was actively avoiding areas with security on the day of the event. It's unreasonable to expect someone being attacked not to defend themselves. It's victim blaming to even imply the shooter did anything wrong here.

  • The New 8bitdo Retro Keyboard shipped early. Small-ish Male Hand for scale.
  • I just got mine too. Nice and klacky. Mine arrived on in 2.4GHz mode, so I had trouble with pairing until I charged it. Works great now though.

  • Let's discuss Eversion by Alastair Reynolds
  • Loved it too. It's been a year or so but I feel like this was a two day read for me. I couldn't put it down.

  • OpenAI now tries to hide that ChatGPT was trained on copyrighted books, including J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series
  • I think you're putting too much faith in humans here. As best we can tell the only difference between how we compute and what these models do is scale and complexity. Your brain often lies to you and makes up reasoning behind your actions after the fact. We're just complex networks doing math.

  • Report: Potential NYT lawsuit could force OpenAI to wipe ChatGPT and start over
  • Nope, you're looking at it wrong. The Dev got paid to write that code and for all of their 20 years experience. The code was freely given away after that. Nobody loses when knowledge is shared, humanity wins. It gets hairy when you have businesses whose model relies on giving some content away for free and locking some behind a pay wall. Obviously using all of that to train a model without paying anything implies that they never had a subscription, but if they did have one and gave the model access? What's the difference between that and paying someone to read all those articles? What's the difference between training a model and paying an employee while training them to expertise? We're acting like these models are some kind of machine that chops up text and regurgitates it, but that could describe your average college freshman just as well. We're fast approaching the point where the distinction is meaningless. We can't treat model training any different from teaching a student.

  • Community discovery on self hosted Lemmy instances
  • I subscribe to !newcommunities@lemmy.world which helps. Other than that I look for mentions of other communities in comments, similar to how I used to on reddit.

  • LMG has made a response video to Gamers Nexus' concerns
  • You can hear James' voice in some of the more heinous quotes :(

  • I want a Sim Ant game but with bees
  • I just gave this a play-through because of your recommendation. What an adorable game! Thank you for sharing it.

  • Chrome extension to add a "search" link when browsing logged out Lemmy instances
  • Until it's approved in the web store, you have to:

    1. Download the extension files from github.
    2. Open chrome://extensions/
    3. Click "Load unpacked"
    4. Navigate to the folder that contains "manifest.json"
    5. Click "Select"
    6. Open the extension options to set your home instance (default is lemmy.world)

    I've been annoyed by the "copy !communityname@server.host to your instance's search" aspect of joining new communities. To make this more streamlined I created this extension to add a "Search on [myhomeinstance]" button on community pages. It's currently submitted for approval in the chrome web store, which could take a few days, but you should be able to install it as an unpacked extension in developer mode today. Please let me know what you think and if you have any suggestions.

    Is there a "home instance" browser extension?

    When visiting a new lemmy instance to find communities, you have to copy the !community@server link from the description to your instance's search bar. If a chrome/firefox extension could detect that a lemmy instance is loaded and automatically add "Subscribe on [homeinstance.url]" buttons where the normal subscribe button would be, I think it'd go a long way toward making the "Fediverse" easy for new users. Apologies if this exists and I just couldn't find it.
