Just upgraded my Silverblue installation. It was boring. It just downloaded while I kept working, one reboot, and it just works. Nothing to fix or tweak. What now?

Who should be regulated, Google or Reddit? Reddit updated there robots.txt to disallow everything. As it's their site, I guess it's also their right to determine that. They then made a deal with Google, which I guess is also not abusing a dominant position by Google, as Reddit could have made a deal with anyone.

It's a bit of a dilemma reading their policy:

We believe in the open internet and in keeping Reddit publicly accessible to foster human learning (...) Unfortunately, we see more and more entities using unauthorized access (...) especially with the rise of use cases like generative AI. This sort of misuse of public data has become more prominent as more and more platforms close themselves off from the open internet.
We still believe in an open internet, but we do not believe that third parties have a right to misuse public content just because it’s public.

Being a open/public platform, but still wanting to protect user's content from being used for AI could be a good thing, and I guess also what many fediverse users would want for this platform. Making a distinction between AI and search indexing could indeed be difficult. But then making content deals with Google for search indexing and AI training is a bit hypocrite.

I remember the developer mentioned something about this once, and I had to scroll way to far back to find it: https://lemmy.ca/comment/1264956

I can totally understand being somewhat insecure about your code, or have the feeling that you need to do this/this/that before you can publish it online. And indeed dealing with an issue tracker, pull request that people expect you to review, forks of your code being published elsewhere, finding and trusting other developers to commit directly to your project can feel stressful. Disabling issues and pull request on GitHub could resolve some of these issues.

Connect is a fantastic app, and still my favourite lemmy client. I hope it will continue to work en be great for a long time. And most importantly that the developers still has fun working on the project.

 

When using my home instance, lemm.ee, the user avatars and community images of all communities and users of other instances are not loading. Instead they show a infinity spinning icon.

Since the release of lemmy 0.19.4 images can be loaded via the new image proxy. Connect seems to append format=webp&thumbnail=64 to an image URL. However, when this is added to a proxy image URL, it it not working. These query parameters are only working for /pictrs images.

Example of url that fails: https://lemm.ee/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Flemmy.world%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2Fc6d6b005-8790-4d12-a11e-ef2cba2cb397.png?format=webp&thumbnail=64

Edit: as far as I can see in the json API, the icon/avatar url is delivered without the query parameters, and Connect is adding them. For users/communities on my home instance the url is always with /pictrs, so after adding the query parameters it still works. But for users/communities on another instance the url is with /image_proxy and then adding the query parameters leads to an error.

Missed a bit of variation in the games. I felt alot of it was 3D with guns and generic video game graphics. Would have been nice to have to have a platformer, or some titles with distinct art styles.

Thanks for the quick fix. And thank you very much for this really awesome app!

 

I updated to the latest beta, 1.0.175, bit this seems to have a major bug. When scrolling down in a lost of posts, after maybe 20 posts there is no more content. When this happens the app completely freezes and o have to force-quit. And when scrolling really fast through the list of posts, the whole screen turns grey and the all also freezes.

Is this a long term source of revenue for Reddit? Or will it loose value at some point, simply because LLMs are all trained sufficiently on user generated content. Is there more to learn at some point?

Also it seems that a lot of content on Resdit is already AI generated, so it would train on data from other LLMs, which I'm sure doesn't improve quality.

Get a device that is supported by KOReader and install that. I use an old Kindle Paperwhite 2, and with KOReader it's great. I use Calibre for library management (on a laptop) and it supports a wireless connection directly to Calibre. Or if you prefer to have your library on a NAS device (or sync it) you can set up an ODPS feed to directly browse and download from your NAS.

 

Rekindling memories of the Xbox 360’s famous Xbox Live Arcade, Xbox Indie Selects features a monthly, curated collection of six indie games in the Xbox Store, dashboard, and on Xbox social channels. Microsoft added that it will not include indie games already in Game Pass, “even if they’re fantastic”, because Game Pass games are already featured in the Game Pass hub.

I used to be a big fan of Assassin's Creed games, both the old style and the two new RPG styles. But not sure if I'm down for a 100 hours game.

I think having Game Pass expanded the style of games I play quite a bit, and I now enjoy short games a lot more.
