It would be inviting a lawsuit for sure. I like the essence of the idea, but it’s probably more trouble than it’s worth for all but the most fanatic.

Right‽ this has ‘maybe the genie won’t screw me over with my third wish if I just ask it right’ energy.


Your feelings and opinions are affecting our bottom line. Obviously it’s you that’s the problem here.
I’m sorry, what’s market research again? That sounds old-school and not involving AI.


No, I don’t think that’s what’s happening here. I think people are theorizing that X is very likely to respond to pressure from Google and Apple threatening to deplatform them, and loudly complaining about them not applying their own rules equally is a great way to remind their internal lawyers to put pressure on them (insulting the CEOs is just a nice bonus).
Frankly, if the fallot here is a relaxed adult policy, that’s still a win. LGBTQIA advocacy groups tend to get lumped in as ‘adult’, which is a problem for trans-affirming suicide prevention hotlines trying to save lives.
As for your slippery slope question, that Pandora’s box is already open. Just half a year ago Mastercard and VISA put the strongarm on Valve and itch.io to let the payment processors ban any game they choose under the guise of pornography censorship. Pressuring a platform to censure an app ‘for the sake of the children’ just isn’t the virgin ground you seem to think it is.


Don’t tell me what my intent is. My intent was to point out that using charged language for some people and selecting more neutral language when the influential do parallel acton is itself a bias toward the rich and powerful. I was using the socratic method to highlight the hitch in your reasoning. I was being fairly neutral in that my focus was to inform you that your reasoning had a gaping hole in it.
Now I shall use somewhat more emotional language because I’m now more actively attempting to persuade
“Reserve judgement and let the system work” is only a valid stance if there’s reason to believe the system will work. After multiple impeachments and numerous more lawsuits (and we’re barely touching on this sleasebag’s career before they got into office; a lifetime of profiting on misery and broken promises, getting away with it solely by being rich as fuck and cultivating a persona of playing dumb in court while hiring the most ruthless lawyers in the industry to whitewash his crimes in a legal…) That got away from me - my point is I don’t know why we’re giving a convicted rapist and suspected pedophile the benefit of the doubt.
Much more to the heart of the matter is Project 2025 by the Heritage Foundation. Within it’s pages, it spells out a plan to functionally blitz the landscape with so many regressive policies enacted at once that they effectively cover for each other. With that frame in mind it’s entirely unsurprising that the Epstein files issue, the planned military extraction of Maduro, and the ICE shooting in Minneapolis all share airspace within the same week. The media position of ‘wait to see what plays out before using judgemental language’ is being deliberately exploited as a stalling tactic.
So let me offer an olive branch: If it were anybody but Trump and his cadre of enablers, I normally am all for the media acting with reserve before throwing their influence around before the facts are in, but that norm is being weaponized against us. So, do you believe that the violation of Venezuelan sovereignty and coup of their leadership is justified? Please note - I did not call it a kidnapping or abduction and all parties agree that the President’s stated intent is to directly influence Venezuelan policy. Do you believe the President should be conducting similar operations in Columbia and Cuba as stated and Greenland as leaked? And when does it become appropriate for journalism to push back against government overreach?


How do you feel about ‘abducted’? I know that journalists use that term frequently when discussing domestic kidnappings, but it has a negative associations. When a pedophilac predator forces a victim to go with them, that appears to be acceptable language - would you say the term can apply to the President’s actions?
Thank you. I seriously looked over the image and my eye caught the weird compression artifacts, but didn’t see the other things despite well trying. (Also, my client apparently doesn’t show web banners - the heart LLM is a pretty strong hint) I appreciate you sharing what you saw.

What makes you say this was made with AI? Not exactly doubting you, but curious about your methods.


The kinds of human-substitute that become trillionaires, evidently


I’m not sure what to tell ya. A cheap ARM device is the CanaKit 2GB Raspberry Pi 4 starter kit costs $110, but the JetKVM I recommended above including the ATX adapter is also $110

The only setup I can imagine that’s technically cheaper is an esp32 flashed with firmware, as discussed by another user (you already replied to it): https://lemmy.world/comment/20842145
But the esp32 (regardless of if you use a wire to simulate a button press, or have the device generate the WoL packet) is gonna be a pain to setup and flash by comparison to the other options.
If you already have a pi, it just needs to be flashed with Raspbian and install the app etherwake ‘sudo apt-get install etherwake’ and run it with ‘sudo etherwake [target MAC]’.


For a reliable and useful remote control solution, you’re looking for an IPKVM with ATX power control. To setup the power control, you effectively set up a parallel circuit where your power switch connects to the motherboard, letting the KVM effectively press the power button ‘normally’. As a bonus, you can connect to the video and data of the KVM for even more remote control options, like be able to troubleshoot boot issues or load a virtual CD/DVD to upgrade the OS.
For tinkerers, I recommend the PiKVM, either DIY or Preassembled. It’s important to know that a RaspberryPi is energy efficient compared to an x86. This guy crunched the numbers
If you’re looking for a product instead of a project, I’d recommend JetKVM.


Maybe the real fan was the ARMs we grew along the way 😻😸


Have you considered adding a heatsink? Maybe a fan??


The same roadblock has existed for ARM PCs as Linux PC - the mountain of legacy stuff that only runs on x86 Windows. Which is something Steam’s Proton has directly addressed.
Now that they’ve wrapped legacy software in an OS compatibility layer (Wine/Proton) and that is being wrapped in an instruction set compatibility layer (FEX) that mountain of software is ready to roll!
Best part is, valve’s contributions are virtually all being pushed upstream, meaning unrelated projects will all benefit from the work.
2026 - Year of the Linux ReactOS desktop!


I’m making popcorn for the first time CoPilot is credibly accused of spending a user’s money (large new purchase or subscription) (and the first case of “nobody agreed to the terms and conditions, the AI did it”)


You can also setup Jellyfin in parallel to Plex and give it a whirl.
Usually. When Plex leaked that they were selling user data, I was running Plex server on an Nvidia Shield, a unique build of Plex that ran as a core service of the Android device. There ain’t no Jellyfin analogue of that monstrosity.


They’ll just have AI read it for them…


I think you’re part right. I think they’ll attempt a bailout, but I don’t believe Trump’s appointments and the administration they’re creating have the skill to plan or execute a bailout (or admit to failure enough to identify that they need one in a timely manner)
They’re more likely to ram the economy full speed into rock bottom, then blame an outgroup (“the Democrats did this”) and pretend nothing could have been done.
I appreciate that arch’s package manager is a bit of a monster - but that’s also what made it the prefect choice for me.
In the immediate aftermath of the release of the Steam Deck, there was many hot weeks where arch’s ability to turn on a dime was exactly the tool needed to run all the new things valve released (fast development to deploy is aur’s specialty). This advantage was destined to not last more than 6 months, as that’s the release cycle for other distros.
Nothing prevents ya from using Arch to install Flatpack, tho. It’s also really well documented at https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Flatpak 😅
They don’t own it, the individual posters own the content of their own posts, however, from the reddit terms of service:
And with each of those rights granted, Reddit’s lawyers can defend those rights. So no, they don’t own it “just because they ran the servers” - they own specific rights to copy granted to them by each poster.
(I don’t like this arrangement, but ignorance of the terms of service isn’t going to help someone who uploaded a full copy of the works they have extensive rights to) On this subject I think there needs to be an extensive overhaul to narrow what terms you can extend to the general public. The problem is I straight up don’t trust anyone currently in power to make such a change to have our interests in mind.
