Vibecoding is a viable commercial use case. I mean I think it's dumb but companies do undeniably pay for it.
>>34752
Yep the stocks of Big Tech and "shovel sellers" (Nvidia, semis, neoclouds) diverged last night with the former going up and the latter going down, when it's usually the opposite. The Big Tech stocks only went up because people are expecting them to cut capex.

> Vibecoding is a viable commercial use case.
it literally loses frontier labs money AND it has been thoroughly commoditized, try again.

>>34687
That's because Claude distills from them (and Deepseek for Chinese for capacity).

since stonks in south korea, the imbecile korea, are dumping, do you think scalpers will get desperate and start selling off their warehoused RAM, like they did when google announced some stupid quantization that had a negligible effect on memory usage.

also worth pointing out that hinojosa let datacenters currently in construction to be finished. they are not getting finished regardless, but some special people online will see "le government intervention" as the reason why the AI economy flopped and died. it just kinda seems that investors just needed a small shove for them to panic and push everything down the drain because they were already jittery.

Just completed feeds, and sorting, called them Score, Bump, and New. 5000 lines now.

Am thinking of something sort of complex to avoid sybil attacks:

• A minimum karma statistic for votes, and posts to count towards rank.
  
• SybilGuard once passed the karma statistic to check for voting rings.
  
• Escalating bans from board if sufficient rank changing negative karma (broken hearts).
  
  

So even if you had a residential proxy service with many IPv4s, and an email server you couldn't manipulate.

Day 14 update, 6000 lines total. Got 99% of pagination & doomscrolling working, a small error to do with posting that will fix later. Got "remember me" working, a parser for posts, and avoid relay behavior in the federation layer. Plan for the day is finish off pagination, add a captcha for signup (the only captcha), and HTML sanitation for the federation layer.

Got all this done yesterday. Plus started on remote profile fetches — they aren't currently signed so some of the fediverse 404s. We're probably looking at another two weeks until feature complete. Have also been working on language enhancers this may as well serve as an all call for anyone interested in sharing what they'd see changed in English. I've got a pretty long list but I'll leave it as a surprise, mostly they seek to subjectivize, relax, and encourage flow. In a separate all call will soon be interested in recruiting UX that is creative or particularly good from you all. Assuming anyone expresses interest.

I'm really starting to blow some of my complexity budget on caching and fetching of remote profile outboxes. About 1200 lines. I'm ripping it up, and just having remote profiles contain messages that have reached the federation endpoints via follows, and replies. Apparently this is what mastodon does anyway.

Am going to come back down to earth a little, and stop complecting, the SybilGuard is likely to be the most complex part of the application (but seems necessary). Next steps after this are votes and deletes.

>>34749
Yi xin edition. Got some buttons up, still have to review the karma code, and implement the delete/report button. Good news is that bailing on the outbox traversal, and now on the remote Likes the only thing left in the federation layer is fep-228, and posts addressing multiple Groups (both of which truthfully could wait).

What is the best to glue together legos?

You don't sound very convincing.

are you sure he's the guy that's mentally ill? is there a slight possibility that someone else may be a schizo that you have considered?

Answer what will happen if I plug in this spyware monitor into a Linux PC?

If you evade this question you lost the debate.
Funny how all the Gamernexus dick suckers need to defend their retarded cult leader and him being wrong.

>>34742
what happens if you go to the brain doctor to take your meds? if you evade this question you lost the debate

Thanks on losing the debate. I win this one.

the strata engine can do qwen flash at 70 tokens per second, but 16GB means you get little context which makes them useless for agentic programming. but we're so close to frontier level agents on consumer hardware!

Well it's complete. The light Phone will now run any game program Flawlessly.

Privacy is definitely something I think about before trying new AI tools. I’d be curious to try genjutsu ai generator for video experiments, especially if the privacy settings are clear about how uploaded clips are handled. genjutsu ai generator (https://genjutsuai.com/)

>>34689
At 16GB, you can just run Qwen 3.8 27B instead quantized, and have a larger cache.

i think i will have this AI july because my "AI-first" company has a quota so strict it's not even funny. I blew my quota just by asking a straighforward question. This shit is so over man.

>>33721

it's like we're back to the medieval era where anytime a person handled money they had to go through this whole ritual where they test each coin to make sure they're not counterfeit because forgery was rampant and there was no social trust at all.

Did it work

>>33988
Sorry I used composer 2 to make some mermaid diagrams therefore fucking up the no AI July movement

>>33602
osaka would never use ai. do it for her

I've been a fan of Gentoo for many years now. Mostly just because of how easy it is to patch and create ebuilds in a local repository or using the patch folder. Reducing runtime dependencies like DBus is also nice. The few init services I've written have not been so difficult.

I wouldn't recommend it for everyone though, it depends on your needs, and the resources you have available. Also don't claim to know everything about system administration. Want binary package for my server - but Gentoo has these too, for amd64 at least.

Only other thing I'd really consider running atm is Devuan.

Alpine no question. While it's what everyone uses for their lightweight containers and VPSs, for anyone cognizant of the system it's a fine desktop as well. If you need to run any glibc binaries, just be prepared to install gcompat or a chroot.

The parts that matter are shared among all *nixen anyways. It's extremely unlikely LLM reviews will cause a glaring bug to slip into Linux (the kernel), yet it already happened with rsync and no doubt will also affect the pkgsrc ecosystem as a whole.

>>34702
>LLM reviews
that was two months ago, now they are fully vibecoding it

>The parts that matter are shared
literally not the case. the codebases are completely different, the api has superficial similarities but it is also different

>>34727
>the codebases are completely different
I was talking about third-party software aka. pkgsrc.

Fedora just works so it's what I prefer. If I were to switch, I'd go to Arch. I generally dislike forks of distros, just can't trust them. I install Linux Mint if it's a computer for someone else. Debian just isn't great for desktop use in my opinion, everything is outdated and I've had problems because of that. Ubuntu nowadays is out of question, I'd rather run Windows if it came down to that.

big rip.

>disroot hard drives fucked up
ah so that's what happened

Is this why AO3 is down?

>>34667 I actually already have a home server on a retired HP workstation, currently running ProxMox. I don't exactly have a lack of home server. Its why I'm asking here, as I need a new thing to do on my laptop

run a minecraft server on it for all leftypol anons to play on
last one failed but im sure this one will succeed

>>34669
oh or you could run a reticulum transport node, if you also have something like lora or ham radio idk
https://reticulum.network/

>>34668
The point would either be to migrate everything onto the laptop, since it should end up being more energy efficient, or run some daemons on the laptop for security or performance reasons.

If you don't want another server, maybe you would enjoy setting up a media center somewhere in your house. You could have it do anything from just playing videos on your TV to being a full STB substitute.

give it away to a poor person mr communist. if you have no idea what to do with something, that probably means you don't need it.

Bullshit or cope, I had a xiaomi and it had so much shit that you needed to turn off in separate places it was insane, and to this day I never figured out how to disable the xiaomj "safe installer" crap. I got lucky on that phone because it was vulnerable to mtkexploit which rescued it from the trash bin

>>34152
I just hit back out of muscle memory when the stupid safe installer appears. Yeah I had to turn off "features" in separate places too but it took me about a day of getting used to the thing. Yet it is still my daily phone after all these years. Battery still lasts a good day use, too.

everyone's giving you bad advice. the best phone is one you can play the best emulated gaming experience on, get 2 days battery out of, has OLED, and is cheap, under $250.

The entire phone market is an oligopoly keeping certain features from budget and even mid range phones.

Namely, all non flagship phones are artificially limited to 4k30 fps recording, it used to be because of the image signal processor on the cpu, but then it became too expensive to manufacture multiple of those for different cpus, now it's just that the option doesn't pop up in the camera app.

Cameras on phones haven't really gotten better since 2020, the limiting factor isn't megapixels but rather the focal length and tiny sensor size. Every new camera feature since then has been a marketing gimmick.
Manufacturers trying to get more from the tiny sensor ironically makes the picture worse year over year due to shitty overprocessing.


To keep phones from getting cheap all brands collectively agreed to limit midrange phones from having zoom cameras. I bought a redmi note 10 pro 5 years ago and it had a main 108mp camera, a macro camera and an ultrawide. 5 years on the same line offers the same fucking features for 2x the price.

The only thing that keeps advancing are phone cpus but the gap between budget and the one flagship cpu (snapdragon 8 gen 5) keeps increasing year over year due to normal everyday tasks not becoming more demanding.

Also I really like sillicon carbon batteries.
