Thank you!

@alam@lemmy.world is also on the threadiverse, and may post updates about this as it develops

Predictions

Showerthoughts

I had no idea Reddit invented having deep thoughts in the shower, or making predictions

🙄

Am I the Asshole?

Yea they can keep that one

No problem :)

What are the optimizations? I seem to be getting a worse experience vs. using it in the device browser since there's no adblocking

Use the free trials with both and see what you prefer!

For podcasts, if you're on android, check out AntennaPod

edit: Adding some more information

• The podcast format was designed to be decentralized and open. Most creators still do direct distribution, so you can follow your favourite podcasts without needing a centralized entity like Spotify to collect it for you
• The exception is the platform exclusive paywalled stuff that Spotify produces themselves. Joe Rogan is one of those iirc, but I don't think that affects the majority of people here
• If you listen on multiple devices and want to synchronize your listening history, see here: https://antennapod.org/documentation/general/synchronization

Realistically, maybe a few weeks or a month minimum 😄

Right now the plan is:

• cleaning up the data (removing rows that are clearly errors, tests, or duplicate submissions)
• figuring out the best ways to graph each question
• cleaning individual data rows into a format that's easy to graph
• generating some basic image graphs

Then once we post those, we want to have the interactive version on our site as well. We'll be working through all that during off hours from work / other life tasks

If you have a specific question you want to know the results for, I can give you an approximate breakdown sooner. I assume the data won't change significantly during the cleaning, most of the responses look legitimate

I appreciate it, thanks!

The team wanted to set up here, but was held back by the lack of mod tools.

Lemmy hasn't really improved on them yet, but there's a revamped UI in the works. Piefed has a number of improvements already.

Maybe once things are looking good enough for their high standards, we can invite them back over to take a look 😄

So they could have held paint drying Mondays instead, with the same overall effect

"Every single Monday was called Paint Dry Monday" Vaughan said, with his mandate for staff that they could only watch paint dry. "You couldn't have customer calls; you couldn't work on budgets; you had to only watch paint dry." He said this happened across the board, not just for tech workers, but also for sales, marketing, and everybody else at IgniteTech. "That culture needed to be built. That was the key."

I always saw the rules against Wikipedia to be around citations (and accuracy in the early years), rather than it harming learning. It's not that different from other tertiary sources like textbooks or encyclopedias. It's good for learning a topic and the interacting pieces, but you need to then search for primary/secondary sources relevant to the topic you are writing about.

Generative AI however

• is a text prediction engine that often generates made up info, and then students learn things wrong
• does the writing for the students, so they don't actually have to read or understand anything

Yup, it looks like generative AI + image editing after the fact

Image generators have trouble juggling multiple colors and patterns on clothing. It would be a weird stylistic choice to create that effect with image edits alone

Also if you look closely, she has 3 arms. Two arms holding the phone up, one arm holding a soccer ball against her body?

For sure! I'm looking forward to seeing more NodeBB content, it federates over nicely

Sorry about that 😅

I like the site, it's clean and straightforward

I appreciate your work!

Thanks! I was looking up Niiofetch but it kept giving me results for Neofetch lol

Neat! I'm somewhat familiar with homebrew but I haven't kept up with it in years. I didn't know you could put Linux on it too

I wonder how it would do as a media center for the living room. I'd much rather use a Wii remote to navigate on a TV instead of buttons.

Being able to play Jellyfin off of it somehow would be amazing, I imagine it will need a custom app. Possibly based off of this thing? https://www.wiimc.org/about/

TIL 😮

Oh is that what it was 😄

There's an account that I haven't used in years, which gets a "Are you trying to log in?" email every few months.

I got 6 emails at once the other day, figured it was the same junk
