I’m no fan of slop but I’m not going to stab myself in the eyes to avoid looking at it. That’s what the slop wants me to do.

Turns out it was scheduled maintenance so not correlated

Maybe that’s why they’re doing a 40% off special today

You are giving slop WAY too much power over your life, imo. Avoiding Linux entirely because you might accidentally touch some generated code is pathology.

What does that have to do with slop?

Please stop hyping up the power of text generators. LLMs aren’t predators with will of their own, they only have as much power as we are willing to cede to them.

The more afraid we are of slop doing something other than just being slop, the more power we are giving the companies (which are harmful) to actually control us. Don’t help them.

A debloated Google Maps would be amazing.

The hard question becomes is it better for Linux (where anyone can contribute labor) to get the attention and donations or for commercial software where only nonhuman corporations benefit.

Canada should just stop honoring us IP. They could let a Canadian company clone Google Maps.

Lets be real though, nobody comes close on the quality of Google Maps. Everyone needs to contribute to OSM.

Not for me. Using a Canadian VPN.

Firefox can edit existing pdf text?

What others are there? This is the first I know of!

Small instances are best. I just wish the big instances didn’t have most of the communities.

Gotta remember that a lot of Lemmy users are here because they’ve been banned from everywhere else. All the big Lemmy instances are highly moderation averse but I still report dipshits when I see them.

Argosy has to be vibe coded because while the UI appears very polished it is the most confusing and inconsistent piece of software I’ve ever used.

If you’re using Frigate with docker you could route the container through a gluetun container.

In the US they use Chromebooks, not really any better but they do have Linux under the hood.

lick the boot harder then

holy shit shipment too wow
