Hello twtxt! I’m James (or @falsifian@www.falsifian.org). I live in Toronto. Recent interests include space complexity, simple software, and science fiction.

Could you perhaps just have a check box to do the opposite, like “Don’t remember me”? I’ve seen that a couple of places I think. Sort of an opt in short lived login, if you’re at a public library or something etc.

@prologic@twtxt.net I was wondering if my reverse proxy could cause something but it’s pretty standard…

server {

    listen 80;
    server_name we.loveprivacy.club;

    location / {
            return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
            <a href="https://we.loveprivacy.club/search?q=%23proxy_pass">#proxy_pass</a> http://127.0.0.1:8000;
    }

}
server {

    listen 443 ssl http2;
    server_name we.loveprivacy.club;

    ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/we.loveprivacy.club/fullchain.pem;
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/we.loveprivacy.club/privkey.pem;

    client_max_body_size 8M;

    location / {
            proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8000;
    }

}

@movq@www.uninformativ.de the location is real. A few in the ‘hood mentioned seeing this person directly. They live somewhere on the hillside in the background of the video.

The hottest 21 days ever recorded on Earth were the last 21 days.

There are climate scientists saying that this summer will be the coolest summer of the rest of our lives. It won’t get cooler.

They can say that with confidence because Earth’s energy imbalance–the difference between how much energy comes in versus how much is radiated back to space–has been positive since around 2010. Prior to that, the balance would shift negative sometimes, so Earth would radiate a bunch of energy back into space. Not anymore. Earth is an energy sponge now. And net positive incoming energy means temperatures go up.

Climate disaster has been here for awhile, but it’s kicking into high gear now. This will not change until we take drastic action.

Do they legitimately believe that end users will encounter videos of gruesome murders, live streams of school shootings, etc etc etc, and be like “oh, tee hee hee, that’s not what I want to see! I’d better block that!” and go about their business as usual?

No, they can’t possibly be that foolish. They are going to be doing some amount of content moderation. Just not of Nazis, fascists, or far right reactionaries. Which to me means they want that content on there.

There is a “right” way to make something like GitHub CoPilot, but Microsoft did not choose that way. They chose one of the most exploitative options available to them. For that reason, I hope they face significant consequences, though I doubt they will in the current climate. I also hope that CoPilot is shut down, though I’m pretty certain it will not be.

Other than access to the data behind it, Microsoft has nothing special that allows it to create something like CoPilot. The technology behind it has been around for at least a decade. There could be a “public” version of this same tool made by a cooperating group of people volunteering, “leasing”, or selling their source code into it. There could likewise be an ethically-created corporate version. Such a thing would give individual developers or organizations the choice to include their code in the tool, possibly for a fee if that’s something they want or require. The creators of the tool would have to acknowledge that they have suppliers–the people who create the code that makes their tool possible–instead of simply stealing what they need and pretending that’s fine.

This era we’re living through, with large companies stomping over all laws and regulations, blatantly stealing other people’s work for their own profit, cannot come to an end soon enough. It is destroying innovation, and we all suffer for that. Having one nifty tool like CoPilot that gives a bit of convenience is nowhere near worth the tremendous loss that Microsoft’s actions in this instace are creating for everyone.

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net Animals have inner lives. Computers do not.

Are you really so desperate to make this point thst you’re citing Quora??? Believe what you want to believe.

We live in a world where the Taliban has a huge presence on Twitter, yet your favorite American President has been silenced.

LOL! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org
Not anymore 😭. I still have a self-propelled one, and electric, which is very nice. But when you live under an almost constant 32-35℃, with super high humidity, you cease liking working outside pretty quick.

Apple Store online down before today’s event. Less than two hours till it goes live!

The features that macOS Monterey will bring, albeit minor, will made for a better “quality of living”. I am looking forward to Notes, and the iCloud+ integration (Private Relay, Hide My Email). It also bring macOS cohesively close to iOS. My work 2015 iMac and M1 Mini will get it, so looking forward to it!

@adi@f.adi.onl Oh boy… we don’t want to go down that route. There is plenty to know about the Taliban, not just from the news but from people who lived—and still lives—under their “governance”; all of which is, I am afraid, much more accurate than your highschool girlfriend story telling.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Are they your goats? They look so cute, and clean, almost unreal! Where I live it is an eternal sunshine, it might fool you into believing it is paradise, until you steam, toast, and burn. 🤣

#event Tomorrow, Saturday October 2nd, I’m gonna be hosting a workshop at Processing Community Day CPH about Live Coding Visuals in Improviz. Only 5 spots left, so sign up now at: https://pcdcph.com

@prologic@twtxt.net @darch@twtxt.net Like with many things that live in a diaspora there will be many names for about the same thing. Just look at e-mail headers!
