That’s an extremely poor choice of sponsorship for that particular video, made me laugh quite a bit

It seems much better now, thank you :) Is it still on 0.19 or did it get reverted back to 0.18?

I‘m already using voyager. I’m pretty sure it’s not the app that’s slow, but the Lemmy server. Doesn’t matter which app you’re using.

I don’t see how a purely magnetic watch band attachment could work for a watch, but I guess we’ll see. Would definitely be a shame to loose band compatibility.

I tried importing my Evernote stuff into Apple notes and apparently attachments import is broken in Sonoma which is just great. Any other way to import from Evernote to Apple notes?

I’m really curious, I can’t imagine many people choosing something other than google, but apparently google thinks enough people would to make it worth giving up almost 40% of their entire revenue.

Seems to me they’re mostly paying for the data they’re getting out of this, I can imagine they’d be making more money without the deal. Maybe slightly fewer users, but 40% more revenue.

This has been the best git tutorial I’ve come across so far. Nicely interactive and gamified. https://learngitbranching.js.org/

projecting smartphone humane AI pin marks commercial debut at coperni SS24 show in paris

Just to clarify:

The Pin isn’t always recording or even listening for a wake word, instead requiring you to manually activate it in some way. It has a “Trust Light,” which blinks on whenever the Pin is recording.

Might not make a difference for people as long as it’s pointing at them and could be recording, but you made it sound like it always is. I also don’t find it desirable in any way, especially with that subscription price tag.

I do get the idea of having a different device form factor for an AI device, but I don’t think we’re there yet for what AI can do. Still interesting through.

And what Facebook TV/camera device are you talking about? The Quest 3? Or Ray ban glasses?

I’ll take back the the “Russian” comment, then. I already mentioned the larger feature set of telegram and it’s totally fine to switch because of that.

I’m also aware of the optionally encrypted chats, but them not being the default, as well as being more cumbersome to use and without a notification preview means that basically no one uses it (at least in my experience).

As I understand it the feature set wasn’t the reason for switching so I’m curious in what areas telegram might be considered the better choice compared to Signal/Matrix or even WhatsApp. As I see it it’s missing e2e encryption and isn’t as wide spread as WhatsApp.

Telegram has also some big issues with misinformation and conspiracy stuff due to its “hidden communities” and social media aspect with broadcasting and gigantic groups. I personally know people that have been sucked into this and it makes me quite sad.

So I’d be working hard to convince people to switch (which I’ve actually done already with telegram when it first came out) with no real upside and mostly downsides.

Telegram has some nice features and I can understand that people want to go away from WhatsApp, but as you said it doesn’t even have end to end encryption and additionally belongs to some Russian. How’s that a beginning?

If you’re already switching, why not go to matrix or signal instead if they are, as you said yourself, most likely the better choice? If you’re switching because of the features, okay. But switching, because of privacy concerns or the company behind it makes absolutely no sense imo.

I mean… people buying it are fools and we don’t know if anyone has actually done so. The person selling it might be an idiot, but is it foolish to ask for money? Doesn’t hurt, especially if you need it desperately.

That guy already had more than enough compensation with that hoodie and the office tour they gave him.

Quoting the beginning of the article:

Let me introduce you to WordStar 4.0, a popular word processor from the early 80s. As old as it seems, George R.R. Martin used it to write “A Song of Ice and Fire”.

Why would someone use such an old piece of software to write over 5,000 pages? I love how he puts it:

It does everything I want a word processing program to do and it doesn’t do anything else. I don’t want any help. I hate some of these modern systems where you type up a lowercase letter and it becomes a capital. I don’t want a capital, if I’d wanted a capital, I would have typed the capital. – George R. R. Martin

It’s definitely worth having that bot and I think it’s great that you’re putting the work in. It just doesn’t fix all the “misleading headlines” issues if people don’t even look at the comments or don’t read the (not super short) summary.

I’ve seen a few bot-tldrs and while I really appreciate the idea, I’m not sure if they achieve that 100%. The summary is often a bit long (sometimes just as long as the article) and as I understand it the one I see most often is grabbing sentences and stitching them together, which is nice since it keeps the actual content, but it can be a bit awkward to read.

Maybe yours is working differently, I think generally speaking it’d be best to have one paragraph summarizing the article (chatGPT-style), or having a tool that creates new headlines based on the content and replaces the actual headline itself.

Even with the perfect summary, there’s still the issue that people have to look at the comments to see it. I‘d imagine most people just scroll past the post itself.

Didn’t know the moderation tools were that limited. Hopefully that’s being worked on.
