I just don’t see the point of obsidian et al.
Just use a directory structure and save markdown files in it.
There are many apps that are great editors for this structure on every platform. IDK exactly what obsidian does but many editors have zettelkasten (fancy cross links) functionality, just no fancy graph.
Ghostty + helix is the sexxy RN.
Yeah I don’t think either of them would care in the slightest about this type of polling.
Entirely predictable.
Trump was mocking the voting public on presidents day with that “Long live the king” quip.
That said, it’s just bonkers that 40% of voters feel like things are going in the right direction. Honestly the whole thing is cooked.
Yeah.
Sadly I think email will be with us for the foreseeable future. It’s broken, sure… but it’s just so fundamental to the web.
An alternative would need to be ubiquitous, and that seems unachievable.
It’s 6 months old.
Reported on by some major news outlets.
AfD has form for doing exactly this kind of ambiguous gesture.
I don’t think the SPF / DKIM / DMARC stuff is overly complex nor the core of the problem.
In my case it was recipients with bonkers microsoft exchange servers that just had weird ideas about who should be sending them emails.
For example, one thing that tripped me up forever ago was grey listing. Apparently the receiving server just wouldn’t acknowledge the sending server for an arbitrary period of time, say 12 hours or so. Spam senders would usually give up long before then, while a legit server would keep trying because it’s legitimately trying to deliver an actual email.
So my email-in-a-box type self hosted set up was fine really. Compliant you might say. But to send emails to this one in a thousand recipient I had to investigate what was going on and reconfigure things to ensure their server would interact with mine.
Another thing that can happen is that spammers just put your email address in the “from” field and fire off a few million emails. Obviously the DKIM signatures and SPF won’t match but it still just makes your future legitimate emails look spammy. Having the credibility of a larger organisation goes a long way in this type of instance.
I’m absolutely in the “don’t self-host email” camp. That said, I think it could be done reliably if you wanted to use someone else’s SMTP server and let them worry about deliverability. As in, have your mx records on your domain route to your MTA and dovecot, but set your DKIM and SPF records to match a third party SMTP server. You could use mxroute as an SMTP server very cheaply. There are others like the email API type services. I still can’t think of why I’d want to self host with all this drama but just an idea I’ve heard.
Genuinely wondering what portion of conservative voters support something like this.
It seems kinda indefensible really.
If a cop is terminated from one agency due to misconduct, why would you want them employed by your local agency?
Sorry chief you might have embarrassed yourself a little here. No big thing. We’ve all done it (especially me).
Check out huggingface.
There’s heaps of models you can run locally. Some are hundreds of Gb in size but can be run on desktop level hardware without issue.
I have no idea about how LLMs work really so this is supposition, but suppose they need to review a gargantuan amount of text in order to compile a statistical model that can look up the likelihood of whatever word appearing next in a sentence.
So if you read the sentence “a b c d” 12 times you don’t need to store it 12 times to know that “d” is the most likely word to follow “a b c”.
I suspect I might regret engaging in this supposition because I’m probably about to be inundated with techbro’s telling me how wrong I am. Whatever. Have at me edge lords.
Indeed.
The whole mess seems to have gotten so much worse.
Yeah it’s just bonkers.
A criminal tried to seize power in a violent coup.
Not only was nothing done but voters elected him to be fucking president because they were confused about Palestinians and concerned about the price of eggs.
It’s not real, but it’s concerning that it sounds like something he might say.
See, this really bugs me.
Kiwi, pomegranate, honey, jojoba, macadamia and strawberries, are not good for your hair. They’re just things that reference groups responded positively to.
It’s just bonkers that it’s so hard to find soap with no fruity-na-na bullshit.
I think it’s 2 & 3 plus …
You can’t beat fascists by becoming fascist though.
President Donald Trump ordered the attorney general to pursue the death penalty “for all crimes of a severity demanding its use” in an executive order signed January 20. The order ended the moratorium on federal executions enacted by former President Joe Biden’s administration.
I understand what you’re getting at but self-defense requires an imminent risk of physical harm.
You can’t self-defense a bank employee who might harm you by declining your loan application.
You can’t self-defense your alcoholic neighbor because they might drive drunk later and kill someone.
Hopefully it generates some stink around the LNP in the coming election.
It’s just bonkers how many people vote against their own interests in that regard. My parents are rusted on liberal voters but they collect an age pension from centrelink.
Some headlines around the corrupt punishment of poor people last time we had an LNP government sprinkled through the coming months won’t hurt. I mean they probably won’t help either I guess.
For sure there are plenty of people that don’t produce any real value in their work, but that’s been the case since forever and they’re hard to weed out because in some ways their full time job is to ensure their ongoing employment.
As in most things, it’s a question of extent.
The most accurate statement you can make is that AI will make “most” office employees “more” efficient.
The thing is, this has been happening with every technological advance for hundreds of years.
There’s no evidence that “more advanced AI” is going to emerge in the next few years.
Plenty of answers here but I don’t think anyone has answered this part:
So here’s my take …
Musk did the sig heil as a fuck you to everyone that doesn’t like him. That’s it.
They just won the election by basically lying, ignoring, and playing for time. They can literally do whatever the fuck they like for the next n years with impunity.
Imagine if Harris had won and in her victory speech said something like “Don’t worry Don, I’ll make sure they give you diapers in jail.” It would’ve been a low blow but we would’ve loved her for it because it’s poking fun at the conservatives for no other reason than to stir them up.
I think there’s another, longer conversation to be had about why racism (and by extension nazism) resonates with voters in 2025, but I’m too weary for that I think.
