Which is honestly fair? Like, i would enjoy a “unsafe site, access anyways?” button, but if privacy settings break a page that literally is the pages fault for not respecting privacy.
Edit: typo

Epzillon@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•A Tech-Backed Influencer Wants to Replace Teachers With AIEnglish42·8 days agoWhen will we replace influencers with AI? Seems to generate equal amounts of slop.
Uni, around 2019! Had a professor on the web team who encouraged all students to do the entire uni education on Linux.
All tools and course material was tailored to work on Linux. Hand-ins, exams and anything related either functioned or had custom solutions built by the teachers, student and professors on the web programme.
Everything was open source and if we found any bugs we could just open issues on GitHub. Weekly hand-ins were done on the student server on your own instance of the web server.
In almost every aspect i think that programme was so well tailored for learning real web dev work.
Im not complaining about people liking Nintendos games. Neither am I saying that other AAA studios are flawless. Nintendo more often than not release finished products, apart from others (and with a few exclusions such as scarlet and Violet iirc). Nintendo is not a good company, neither is most of AAA studios. I would probably be more likely to play a Nintendo game myself rather than orter AAA titles. If a person has brain cells enough to recognize Nintendo and the industries flaws they are not the target of my complaints. Im sorry there are people out there worse than me who would continue to shit on you even after provingly displaying insight on the matter. Yet my point stands, people oblivious to the situation who keep coming back to Nintendo, without calling them out and letting every poor decision slide are part of the problem.
I honestly dont know about how Nintendo treats their workers, and honestly, if a Japan-based company has better work ethics than the rest of the industry I am impressed. On the other hand the industry is so shit for workers it shouldnt be a hard thing to achieve.
My personal stance is that people who blindly follow anything are pretty stupid. Nature gave us a frontal lobe for survival - make use of it.
No, completely understand that ofcourse. But Nintendo fans prove time and time again they are suffering from Stockholm Syndrome by talking down the people who’ve had enough of Nintendos bs and lovingly run back to purchase the next overpriced and underperforming console.
Dont get me wrong, i completely understand why non-tech people dont want to put up with it and that we techies are a minority. What baffles me is the undending devotion the Nintendo fans have for their abuser.
Epzillon@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•An earnest question about the AI/LLM hateEnglish4·26 days agoEthics and morality does it for me. It is insane to steal the works of millions and re-sell it in a black box.
The quality is lacking. Literally hallucinates garbage information and lies, which scammers now weaponize (see Slopsquatting).
Extreme energy costs and environmental damage. We could supply millions of poor with electricity yet we decided a sloppy AI which cant even count letters in a word was a better use case.
The AI developers themselves dont fully understand how it works or why it responds with certain things. Thus proving there cant be any guarantees for quality or safety of AI responses yet.
Laws, juridical systems and regulations are way behind, we dont have laws that can properly handle the usage or integration of AI yet.
Do note: LLM as a technology is fascinating. AI as a tool become fantastic. But now is not the time.
This. Still dont understand how people actively let Nintendo piss in their face and shit in their mouth for nothing but enjoyment. Nintendo fans just give off an immense aura of “briandead coonsomer” to me. Literally just emulate it. Same game, better performance and cheaper, wheres the downsides?

no thanks, im lactose
Perfect website, thanks for posting, i will look it up 🙏
Good tips. I mostly use it for YouTube and watching movies on Jellyfin. I already have a a PiHole set up so thanks for posting the domains, will make sure those are blocked properly.
And I will also look into rooting the WebOS, blocking the YouTube ads would be a godsend 🙏

Epzillon@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•The World's First Mass-Produced Flying Car Is Here and It Costs $1 MillionEnglish21·1 month agoApart from all the discussion regarding how stupid this is, how the fuck would this even fit on a road? I doubt the wings would be durable enough if they were retractable. This shit would take up 2 lanes and fuck up any and all intersections. And as a added bonus, it would fuck with everyone elses perception who are used to the distances you keep away from regular vehicles when theyre turning in front of you. This shitheap wouldnt even make it to the airport because someone will probably misjudge the turn radius with the wings and fuck it up on the way there.

Epzillon@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Facebook Allegedly Detected When Teen Girls Deleted Selfies So It Could Serve Them Beauty AdsEnglish5·2 months agoMy dad has been talking about wanting something like AdNauseam for years, i was very happy when i found it. The extra mile would probably be to expand it with a VPN and constantly spam clicks, clear cache, switch IP and obfuscate data. Now we just wait for someone with enough time to build it…
Epzillon@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Facebook Allegedly Detected When Teen Girls Deleted Selfies So It Could Serve Them Beauty AdsEnglish61·2 months agoHappy I got AdNauseam after uBlock Origin. Deleted my facebook a year ago, shit is an AI slopfest built upon the greed and manipulation of every part of the chain. Defcon 31 has a good talk that brings this up. “Disenshittify or die” by Cory Doctrow, cann recommend to watch.
Good summary! Thank you!
