AI is a useful tool for coding as long as it’s being used properly. The problem isn’t the tool, the problem is the companies who scraped the entire internet, trained LLM models, and then put them behind paywalls with no options to download the weights so that they could be self-hosted. Brazen, unaccountable profiteering off of the goodwill of many open source projects without giving anything back.

If LLMs were community-trained on available, open-source code with weights freely available for anyone to host there wouldn’t be nearly as much animosity against the tech itself. The enemy isn’t the tool, but the ones who built the tool at the expense of everyone and are hogging all the benefits.

More likely those in charge of moderation deliberately allowed him to shoot himself in the foot, given the kind of ass he is.

Oh no! us-east-1 is down again!?

And the moment a person with political stance X forks it, then its X software. That is the benefit of the GPL license.

The goal is mass surveilance. Sensible solutions are unwelcome. The current politicians need to be voted out.

Is it FOSS? If not then I don’t care about the product. If yes then I don’t care who made it.

Wrong, old printers are the only ones that were built to last and are easier to maintain.

Thank you very much for these links. I really like the ideas Matrix + Element, and I think they have the best shot of making something very usable. Hopefully this gets implemented one day and I can actually make the switch!

Edit: While clicking around I came across this: https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-rust-sdk/issues/5397#issuecomment-3714128184

Does this mean it should be already implemented or am I reading it wrong?

Agreed, but metadata not being encrypted remains a fact. Sure, metadata of a single message might not mean much, but when combined with metadata of many messages from many users you can find out a lot about a person and their habits. Especially when cross-referencing with other data sources (social media of other users, phone location, etc.).

Message metadata - such as sender, recipient, device ID, and timestamps - is not encrypted at the transport layer, and in many cases remains visible to the homeserver

If the Matrix protocol actually implemented E2E encryption properly I would love to use something like this.

I’m guessing they want to bundle it with the machine and have it as a sort of “demo” game.

Hold sellers accountable. Actual fix.

Everything you said is correct, but you misunderstood my point. I was referring to the fact that Google/Apple/whatever would hold your private key. In practical terms, it is barely different from the existing “Sign in with Google/Apple/whatever”.

I got an Ender 3 V3 KE. I am long past obsessing with 3D printing but it bleeds into my other hobbies or fixing things around the house.

“I need a plastic thing that is this-this-and-this dimensions…” I model it in FreeCAD, do a few test prints, adjust my design and re-print until satisfied.

A 3D printer became a tool that I use a couple of times per month.

Cool, they know the hash to that one service I signed up with them. Not every account ever.

Impressive, now tell me what % of the top 20 current concurrent players games run on linux.

For yout needs, a QIDI plus 4 will fit the bill. Large volume, CoreXY, enclosed with chamber heater, their AMS-equivalent sold separately.

Avoid Bambu lab due to their rugpull practices and general fucking over of customers.

Monero will be illegal to own within the EU next year.

Mark Rober sold out to a content company a couple of years ago, that’s why. Before that he used to be an actually good engineering channel. These days it is mostly just sponsored slop.

The closest alternative I can recommend is Stuff Made Here.
