Chrome has a massive market share and Google abuses that market share by breaking web standards, and pushing people towards Chrome because “the competition doesn’t work”.

They act in bad faith and abuse their position to more deeply entrench their position in anticompetitive monopolistic ways.

That’s the Crux of it.

This does nothing the data is record kept and mass deleting/shredding your comments is already deductible and there have already been cases where shredded comments have been reversed after people have deleted their account.

The Reddit space is just a bunch of pictures of people’s home Labs it’s not really a self-hosted community at all.

It’s not interesting to explore and read like this one is.

It’s suffered from a common phenomena of any community that grows in popularity where it caters to the lowest common denominator and loses its niche.

Samesies…

It’s very difficult though, sourcing material is difficult enough, archiving and making it actually useful and valuable even moreso. It takes a lot of intelligent processing.

LLMs can reduce that effort a lot, on the searching side, but that’s very expensive either in hardware or in API costs. And either way, would likely involve the efforts of a team to achieve.

Because advertising is what wins?

There’s no such thing as bad publicity anymore. If you can gain a lot of publicity with well-timed and poignant collages and snippets that target audience on say tic Tok. That’s an extremely powerful tool.

Currently things like this take not insignificant time and effort. Reducing the time of production is valuable.

Unfortunately the bot problem is coming to Lemmy.

Bots posting content is already a thing here, and then taking up front page space is already a thing.

Lemmy is speed running “How to lose your sense of community”.

They are 55th on the list for obesity rates.

It’s a worldwide epidemic unfortunately.

For reference:

• U.S. is 10th with 41%
• Australia is 36th with 32%

This is exactly why we need ranked choice voting.

Winner takes all essentially demoralizes and alienates voters and drives people who agree with each other to fight because they’re trapped in a broken system.

So instead of fighting the system, it’s easier to just blame other people and alienate more of them against your cause, shooting yourself in the foot with ignorance. It’s kind of disgusting.

And like all android updates, it’s guaranteed to be worse than it was.

Everything’s getting shittier.

“I refuse to accept progress if it’s not perfect progress”

Is what you’re effectively stating here.

Cmon, really? I have this argument with my toddler when he asks for something like a rip off a loaf of bread. He wants the whole loaf, he can’t have the whole load, so he gets a choice: The piece you can have, or nothing.

So. Would you rather have this progress, or nothing? That’s your choice, and right now it sounds a whole lot like you would rather have no progress?

LLMs cannot provide critique

They can simulate what critique might look like by way of glorified autocomplete. But it cannot actually provide critique, because they do not reason, they do not critically think. They match their outputs based upon the most statistically likely interpretation of the input in what you could think of as essentially a 3D word cloud.

Any critique that you get from an llm is going to be extremely limited and shallow (And there’s for the critical critique you require). The longer your text the less likely the critique that you receive is going to be relevant to the depth in which it may be needed.

It’s good for finding mistakes, it’s good for paraphrasing, it’s good for targeting. It cannot actually critique, which requires a level of consideration that is impossible for LLMs today. There’s a reason why text written by llms tends to have distinguishing features, or lack of, that’s a bland statistically generated amalgamation of human writing. It’s literally a “common denominator” generator.

Nfts were a scam from the start something that has no actual purpose utility or value being given value through hype.

Generative AI is very different. In my honest opinion you have to have your head in the sand if you don’t believe that AI is only going to incrementally improve and expand in capabilities. Just like it has year over year for the last 5 to 10 years. And just like for the last decade it continues to solve more and more real-world problems in increasingly effective manners.

It isn’t just constrained to llms either.

Because the majority of my traffic and services are internal with internal DNS? And I want valid HTTPS certs for them, without exposing my IP in the DNS for those A records.

If I don’t care about leaking my IP in my a records then this is pretty easy. However I don’t want to do this for various reasons. One of those being that I engage in security related activities and have no desire to put myself at risk by leaking.

Even services that I exposed to the internet I still don’t want to have my local network traffic go to the internet and back when there is no need for that. SSL termination at my own internal proxy solves that problem.

I now have this working by using the cloudflare DNS ACME challenge. Those services which I exposed to the internet cloudflare is providing https termination for, cloudflare is then communicating with my proxy which also provides https termination. My internal communication with those services is terminated at my proxy.

I am doing SSL termination at the handoff which is the caddy proxy. My internal servers have their SSL terminated at caddy, my traffic does not go to the internet… It loops back from my router to my internal Network.

However DNS still needs to have subdomains in order to get those certificates, this cloudflair DNS. I do not want my IP to be associated with the subdomains, thus exposing it, therefore cloudflair proxy.

You’re seeing the errors because the proxy backend is being told to speak HTTPS with Caddy, and it doesn’t work like that.

You can have SSL termination at multiple points. Cloudflare can do SSL termination and Cloudflair can also connect to your proxy which also has SSL termination. This is allowed, this works, I have services that do this already. You can have SSL termination at every hop if you want, with different certificates.

That said, I have cloudflair SSL off, as stated in the OP. Cloudflare is not providing a cert, nor is it trying to communicate with my proxy via HTTPS.

Contrary to your statement about this not working that way, cloudflair has no issues proxying to my proxy where I already have valid certs. Or even self signed ones, or even no certs. The only thing that doesn’t work is the ACME challenge…

Edit: I have now solved this by using Cloudflair DNS ACME challenge. Cloudflair SSL turned back on. Everything works as expected now, I can have external clients terminate SSL at cloudflair, cloudflair communicate with my proxy through HTTPS, and have internal clients terminate SSL at caddy.

Please do not make this another 2016, and assume Kamila will win.

The Russian bots are out in full force to pacify voters that “they have this in the bag”. This is an indication that the only way we lose is by not voting. And the sentiment is changing, I see calls to vote less and less now, and comments assuming Kamila has already won more and more.

It’s not over till it’s over.

Incels at least is a natural consequence of the difference between society’s expectations, the needs of an individual, and generally the lack of support and or direct toxicity towards men who need help and emotional support men require as humans.

That one is a societal problem around isolating people away from affection.

The rest I have no freaking clue how one becomes a Nazi in 2024.

Refrigerating bread slows down mold growth…

This increasing the shelf life.

You don’t have to refrigerate bread. But you can with clear reason.

That’s not how systemic problems work.

This is probably one of the most security ignorant takes on here.

People will ALWAYS fuck up. The world we craft for ourselves must take the “human factor” into account, otherwise we amplify the consequences of what are predictable outcomes. And ignoring predictable outcomes to take some high ground doesn’t cary far.

The majority of industries that actually have immediate and potentially fatal consequences do exactly this, and have been for more than a generation now.

Damn near everything you interact with on a regular basis has been designed at some point in time with human psychology in mind. Built on the shoulders of decades of research and study results, that have matured to the point of becoming “standard practices”.

Typical security negligence of startups.

Your data is essentially never secure if it’s sitting with a startup. It’s an atrocious world for security out there.

It’s only natural selection if they don’t breed, unfortunately by the time they feel the negative effects of these sorts of actions they will have already had kids.
