Hello thanks for visiting my profile.

A survey with the takeaways really gussying up AI and how people that don’t use AI haven’t had their aha moment yet.
Clearly it’s just safety minded individuals acquiring it. This app helps keep communities safe from unmarked armored vehicles filled with masked criminal cop impersonators.
Don’t “System Sounds” have their own slider? I use Pulse audio on my machine so pavucontrol lets me turn those down. However it makes all sounds quieter.
Find where the ocean theme sound file is, open it in Audacity and just use the Amplify tool to make it a lot quieter (-20dB or whatever, save it as a replacement.
Oh, right, good to know.
!general@lemmy.world is General discussion
!politicaldiscussiin@lemmy.world is Political discussion
!chat@beehaw.org (not accessible from lemmy.world)
!chat@lemmy.one (inactive, server shut down)
!canada@lemmy.ca is a mix of news articles, discussion and anything Canadian that doesn’t really fit well anywhere else.
I’m just going to assume Left Wing Orthodoxy means not being a bigot, i.e. paying a minimum respect to minority groups and showing a little bit of empathy. Voat used to be a thing where shitheads flocked, that’s been gone for a while. The Fediverse edgelord troll habitats were Wolfballs and ExplodingHeads, those died years ago after being widely defederated there was no one left for them to troll.
!conservative@lemm.ee used to be a lite version of Conservative echochamber news, but it turned into a satirical version of itself eventually and the instance is shutting down next week.
So no, there’s currently no place for shitheads and trolls on the connected Fediverse, but we do have a growing selection of niche hobby communities, still small but they’re up and coming.
So, Tesla Robitaxis drive like a slightly drunk and confused tourist with asshole driving etiquette.
Those right turns on red were like, “oh you get to go? That’s permission for me to go too!”
I mean as a Canadian, I knew that was coming since early last year if Trump would win. I couldn’t know where we would land on the spectrum between nothing changed and Armageddon. What I did know was that, without fail, I would hear what stupid thing Trump did just about every day in the news, and it would be overwhelmingly exhausting.
I have three pieces of advice. First, connect with the people around you offline, reinforce your ground truth. Second is keep your eyes on the ball of what you want to be better in the world so that you can keep going after it. Lastly, don’t let right or left wing online propaganda, or the despair from crises the US, Israel, Russia, China or North Korea stir up paralyze you from taking action on those two things.
You’re probably not the only one.
However, the interest (on Lemmy-aligned circles at least) in self-hosting, reducing depedence on large tech companies, community building on smaller scale online and offline, has me excited again that the smaller counterculture can co-exist with the mainstream profit-motivated social media culture.
First off, as a pizza expert, I will say that the best way to keep your toppings from sliding off your pizza is to use a stapler.
Well, anything you post online could be scraped by AI. This is an open public-facing forum so there’s no real expectation of privacy (even DMs). And personally I’d rather have everyone who wanted to see what I have to say be able to see it, instead of some for-profit entity deciding who can see it or if they want to package up the whole dataset to sell to an AI company.
Crafty admins check their server traffic every now and then for unusual bandwidth spikes from scraping activity and can ban certain address spaces or client types. But those are more band-aid solutions that will only deal with performance hits, it can’t prevent archiving nor AI model-ingesting to begin with.
Oooh cool! I’ll be watching for the release of this software with great interest!

Many songs if I like enough I figure out some of the words when looking for the title. Otherwise I remember them then forget them for a while. A couple famous examples I like:
Dschinghis Khan - Moskau, it’s a bop, i know the melody but lyrics I only know parts of.
O-Zone - Dragostea Din Tea - this one of course I know front to back but I don’t know what a single word means.
Honestly inviting anyone over is motivation for me to clean. In my own space, there’s stuff everywhere, but when someone’s coming my standards for personal cleanliness and organization shoot up dramatically.
Once in a blue moon there will be a Reddit-style comment chain on Lemmy, I can tolerate it occasionally when the situation warrants it. When I left Reddit, I was getting tired of every top thread having at least one of the same joke template replies and I’m sure it hasn’t gotten any better since.
Lemmy’s issues are with leftist vs. liberal infighting I would say.
Oh the Urbanity, a Canadian couple discussing housing and transit !urbanism@video.canadiancivil.com
Well, here’s hoping you have a better time with us on Lemmy! My Reddit account is 8 years old, but I stopped using it and have been on Lemmy full time for 2 years now.
I think the issue is you are posting too early for Reddit, you should be commenting for the first week at least.
Essentially, the coarse-grained spam-filter assumes that anyone that has a whole bunch of posts ready to go the day they sign up is a bot spammer. Even here on Lemmy, if you sign up then immediately try to copy and paste a post 10 times to different communities, you will get reported and banned for spamming.
The principle behind it is like any social space online or offline: if you are a legitimate new member, you will start on the fringes and slowly settle in, from introducing yourself to a few members, attend events, to then asking questions, before making any influential speeches or going into a leadership position. Anyone trying to fast track that will be met with suspicion from members.
Reddit and Lemmy are similar in a sense. you start as a lurker, become a commentor, then you are well-adjusted enough to post.
I kinda like RGB but not in the pulsating rainbow way how it seems to always be on marketing materials.
I like keeping it to one colour, with the intensity at half. It is nice to change it a few times a year for a fresh look.
The fonts and other stuff, I don’t care that much as long as the components are good quality. Maybe subconsciously I would consider design if I had to choose between options that performed and cost relatively equally.
