Hey no one choses the location, family or culture we’re born into. Give yourself a break. The system is rotten to the bone now and we’re heading straight to a full societal collapse. Especially in the western world. Just live your life and preserve that humanity inside of you while the rest are becoming beasts.

xmpp + omemo => good luck

One thing I can imagine is even something like unconscious “self censorship”, choosing more permissive license to attract more people and even corporations which will hire developers…

This is the result of years of anti-copyleft propaganda which started to pay off. Now, all that corps need to do is wait for new projects and libraries to pop up and subtly (more than often openly) allocate resources to whichever project they need, or simply EEE. A much easier exercise than it was during the early years of copyleft where we could literally have a free alternate operating system to Microsoft, Apple and IBM while they were openly fighting it. Read on the Education and Government Incentives program for a reminder of what corporations are capable of.

I highly doubt these are sponsored by any big corp, just hobbyists/students that think it is interesting project to undertake that don’t care as much about the GPL as much as they care about doing something interesting to them.

I wanted to test this theory, quickly looking at the commit history you can see that although the project might have started as a hobby/student weekend project, it is currently maintained by someone with an official affiliation of director at Mozilla corp.

PS: I am not pointing the finger to any entity here, I picked this project as an example to have a discussion on this topic.

I am aware that permissive licenses became the defacto form of licensing for new projects thanks to years of propaganda from big corps and especually Microsoft, who bought Github mainly for this. I never paid too much attention until I realized the potential for Rust projects to be widely adopted for replacing a big portion of copyleft libraries. This coreutils project was just an example to make the point, it seems very convenient and it is easy to dismiss the licencing choice as a coincidence. On the long term this might have huge implications a few generations ahead when big corps don’t have to contribute nothing anymore to society. Look at what is happening with OpenCloseAI, open source models are lagging behind because there nothing equivalent to GNU/Copyleft in this field, thus we end up with a big corp mostly owned by Microsoft holding a life changing technology in its hands and hindering the progress of all society.

dwm, I got too much used to “it just works” and never ever breaks afrer an update.

I also run a reverse proxy using a cheap VPS. At home I have several vlans some of which are dedicated for self hosting and exposed to the reverse proxy.

I use Caddy for the proxy and wireguard to join my VPS and home network vlans.

My home IP can never be exposed and the VPS provider only sees the wireguard traffic.

You’re welcome.

I don’t use toolformer it’s just used for demo purposes, I simply scan the PDF of the paper and generate embeddings which are used for question answering. The AI logic is built with Langchain.

It currently uses OpenAI model but the next priority for me is to use local LLMs which should be straightforward with Langchain.

Very nice ! +1 for not showing an amazon tier server rack and calling it your modest homelab.

Do you have some links or resources for the hosted llama.cpp instances ?

I can share with you my personal synth playlist. Start from the bottom for the more recent ones.

I never had a meme folder, they’re just all over the place. [place meme of Narcos]

Decentralized

Yes I don’t why so many people don’t see it :/

use homomorphism and apply it to everything:

interface Profitable {
      exploitable() --> bool
      can_organize() --> bool
}

let profitables: list[Profitable]

for entity in all_things_on_earth {
    if entity.exploitable && !entity.can_organize {
        profitables.push(entity)
    }
}

profit += sell(exploit(profitables))
capital += buy_all_you_can(profit) - (buy_politicians(profit))

Be careful with overwork try to keep life balance. I know it’s difficult when a project is done by passion but health first.

With have the huge opportunity of finally escaping censorship on centralized platforms. I honestly never thought Lemmy would take off as it has in the last few days. I started to get pessimistic on the overall death of the internet as I grew to know. This might be a drop of hope in the ocean of corporate greed that’s destroying everything now.

Will setup an instance as well as soon as I have time.

Right now I use https://github.com/tubearchivist/tubearchivist

It requires a bit of technical skills to setup the instance but offers an easy UI to quickly add channels/playlist and automatically archives new videos.

If you want an easier script checkout https://github.com/TheFrenchGhosty/TheFrenchGhostys-Ultimate-YouTube-DL-Scripts-Collection/

You can put in a file the list of channels/playlists it videos to save and run the script, it downloads everything organized in folders including subtitles and video descriptions.

did you use any tool in particular
