All current popular AI is meant to run on GPU. Why are you going to spend more money to run it on hardware for which it isn’t intended?

The N100 is a nice little chip for mini home servers. I run podman containers for all media stuff with no issues. You’re gonna have fun.

How can Mastodon fix this? How is this a Mastodon issue vs. any kind of social media?

Mastodon is open source, as well, right? It feels like someone should be able to fork it if they’re really ignoring useful features that would help people.

Can you point me at them? Which ones?

I don’t use Mastodon so I have no idea what’s going on, but I am curious what y’all in this thread would want Mastodon to do.

Can’t you set up an instance and moderate it to your preference like other federation style apps?

What specific features are you saying are needed to make Mastodon more usable for any community that might find itself feeling less than welcome?

✋ Hi, person here who bought 2020 but refuses to buy 2024 because they didn’t deliver on half their promises for 2020, including that it would be the last sim they sold.

Maybe they were suprised this many people actually signed up for their next level bullshit. 🤷‍♂️

Mprotect stops any read and write and execute access to memory in both user and kernel lands (only rx or wx). Stuff like web browsers won’t work unless you have a program to mark it in elf to not use pax. However, this kills a lot of exploits with that turned on by itself (though there are probably work arounds if you are developing exploits which the other features would hopefully catch). That’s why people installed 3rd party unmainlined security patches, but that’s just me maybe idk.

I am having a hard time following what this does or why this is desirable. You’re saying there’s a patch this thing provides that … disables memory access … unless a flag is set in an executable … which will then bypass the security?

Why would anyone want to run unmainlined security patches from a company?

This is how CrowdStrike happened.

This feels like security via business decision which is always the opposite of security. At least this would be open source now? 🤷‍♂️

The brutal cognitive dissonance you manage to encapsulated in this comment is impressive.

Fuck this sim they said they would never make because 2020 was supposed to just be a live service.

Plus, they didn’t deliver on tons of promised things, like multicrew.

Don’t buy this, don’t trust MS.

What kind of post is this? I see them sometimes on fedia.io - I can read the title but there is no image and it doesn’t seem to link to anything.

Anyone else on an mbin instance knkw what’s up with these?

He venue shopped this to TX to get the judge he wanted. We are gonn have to deal with this bullshit until it can be appealed out of one of our national judicial shitholes.

Yep, and to the person justifying the IT department’s invasion of privacy: they’ve been lying to us for years, there are breaches ALL THE TIME. Workers will give up every right in the face of corporate excuses? 🤷‍♂️

🙏

Can uh … can y’all help a lazy man out with a link to this community?

🤷‍♂️ I could spend that two hours with my kids.

You aren’t wrong, but as a community I think we should be listening carefully to the pain points and thinking about how we could make them better.

Gonna just stream of consciousness some stuff here:

Been thinking lately, especially as I have been self-hosting more, how much work is just managing data on disk.

Which disk? Where does it live? How does the data transit from here to there? Why isn’t the data moving properly?

I am not sure what this means, but it makes me feel like we are missing some important ideas around data management at personal scale.

Can you elaborate a bit on your setup? As someone running Jellyfin, curious how you’ve configured everything.
