My dad is a weird mix of voting for an obscure explicitly communist party while complaining how socialism ruined everything.

He expresses literal anti fasicm on principle but thinks of antifa as a violent mob.

He believes there is a woke agenda trying to manipulate society but he cant explain what woke is besides refering to cases of forced political correctness or brands changing their profile pictures to pride, he has no issues respecting lgbt, nature and is so much not a christian, he went out of his way to get debaptized.

I cant get him of Facebook, he is addicted. I told him i was probably going to delete mine this year, he told me he is certain id be back in a few weeks like his genx mates… i havent visited my profile in over 3 years, its only the familie groups chat messenger left on it. I told him but it doesn’t compute that anyone can exist without.

In all seriousness i think there better of as the forgotten generation, technically they are allies and i am certain they have roles, positions and effects on society just like every generation. But we need a real change, a break with the old, we cannot do that by lething the brainwashed lead us.

SD XL, Dall-E 3 as-well as few others can somewhat do text but neither does it perfect.

Not sure, but if you use Firefox this functionality comes by default and is customizable.

you can add other search engines shortcuts trough add-ons https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/startpage-private-search/?utm_source=addons.mozilla.org&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=search

Fyi: this also depends on local factors and the kind of stuff your looking for.

In my experience ddg is awful which is strange cause its powered by bing results while Bing result are ok, on par with google for searching and finding websites/services

Startpage wich is deanonimized google works great on premise but its unusable If you want to find local services/stores or governments sites. (It makes total sense though, its the tradeoff of sharing location data). At some point the top result was a starbucks on the other side of the planet and i had actually provided the settings with my nationality and main language.

Google remains king when it comes to digital shopping, results list almost all the major local retailers for me. Bing seems to pick favorite more selectively.

In all seriously of late the tools ivebeen the most happy with are:

• wikipedia search
• wolfram alpha
• gpt-4 (with healthy skepticism)

I seem to be naturally moving away from search engines in favor of just a few bookmarked sites where the real content is. Most of the internet that i havent seen is either not my thing or feels dead

Its a good reason to allow wifi but there is no reason for you to receive such a notification unless your home to act on it, otherwise your better of receiving the notification once your phone reconnect with your homes wifi.

Wifi isnt the same as internet.

There is sometimes but rarely a good reason for those same decides to connect to the public web. They are much more secure if everything stays local.

The prime reason companies claim they need internet so you can set up things like stop heat when i am not home…. But guess what, if my phone isnt activity at home connecting to wifi, my home server can figure it out on its own, no cloud required.

With “ideas” i am actually referencing any less then respect plans collecting data and monopolizing the fediverse meta may have.

I wouldn’t be supposed if meta wasn’t paying some in house developers to help work on the open source federation improvements only to in same breath ease in compatibility with their own systems.

If we’re not careful we might get properly invaded, meta will set the rules for the fediverse to follow. Independent communities that cant follow the same new protocols gets pushed out and will go extinct.

At least thats what i understood is the reason threads gets defederated, better to break up now that its small then to get consumed as it grows.

But i still hoped there could Be some safe doors and gateways in the middle.

Meta disgusts me but i cant lie and say the opportunity that my family may without me pushing much may join the fediverse on threads sounds much nicer then the status quo.

I am all for protecting the fediverse from metas ideas so i do support defediration.

With this transistive tool what happens if i am on my own instance, defederated from meta but i dont the transition and federate with a community that is federated with meta.

Could i see threads from my instance trough the federated one?

Is my own instance safe from meta?

Will transistive defederation mean others will automatically defederate with my instance because i federate with an instance that is federated with threads?

Its not meant to be but can be used as one.

My initial idea what that sites could look up a combo of an email and sign to see if they are a match by Looking up the algo used to make it.

But I realized this wasn’t all that necessary once i realized you can include the hashing protocol in the code so sites that you have account for can verify on their own without third party.

I guess i forgot that there is no point left for the sites to be used to verify as all it really will tell you is that yes that is a valid sign registered here. But i see no reason why a competitor cant try the same thing.

It didn’t need to. The idea is fully mine and i take full responsibility for any lack of expertise and understanding.

I am really bad at writing my thoughts down, il take critics over using ai ais over my horrendous spelling and grammar any day. I know ai flaws, its a tool.

I spend over 2 hours on this before discussing with chatgpt, granted i was stoned most of it but i be damned i wont be told i didn’t put in any effort.

I doesn’t matter that much its flawed, i have ideas like this around the clock, most never make it out of my head. I was glad to participate and learn this time.

I mean, a fair amount of people have point out my system is flawed and has been done better so its kinda a waste of time but i don’t think these are good against arguments against it so i will try to clarify this a bit more.

The sign is not a point of entry, it doesn’t matter that people can copy it anymore than people can have the same first name as you. There is very little anyone can win by knowing or copying your sign except maybe light bullying. It definiteness inst worse then what stranger can do with your email address. It is a name people can use to identify you but its not a proof of identity on its own, you’d need to combine it with something like a password for that.

At this point of time every site, every store every account is made using your email, the databases already exist. Rather then just inventing a brand new system for new sites, i though of something that could work with the current one. They only need to check their existing database once per email and change it into the hash, so now the user can login using the hash and can no longer login using he email.

The email verification thing is bog standard procedure we use today build in every account registration setup to guarantee that its the owner of the email that is making an account, i would be using it the same way to make sure you cant create a code for someone elses emai. You may wander how to do this when there is no more email in the registration for other sides. Easy, there is no initial check, its not a problem irl that people have the same name, neither is it a real problem that someone used your sign for a login, i cant see a reason why they would but next to forgot pasword there is now “Someone else has used my sign” In this case the site could still ask an email address as a secondary identifier, Cross reference the email again the code itself (as the code contains the algorithm to convert the email into the code), send standard verification mail so the owner can proof ownership. old account gets deleted and they get a new one. Using someone else sign cant be stopped just like you can pick any first and last name on facebook but because we know the signs to be unique it should be against TOS to create an account using someone a sign made with an email you don’t own without permission.

This has gone on to long again, its a flawed idea, i wont actually execute it and i pretty much expected it to be shot down, the feedback is still valuable to me, which is why i did it.

I’ll summarize myself and my initial intentions in a final stance.:

I firmly stand again the practice of using email addresses as usernames for online identities, there are good reasons for sites to require your email address but a username or way to login is not a good reason for such sensitive communication-information.

This needs more tests. It looks like current results are the combination of how braincells naturally filter the experience if sound and ai on top of that.

It looks like the brain actually does recognize voices as different but we need an ai to read this from the brain. I am curious how much better this performs then just pure ai.

Id alo like to know how the brain got exposed to sound cause irl an organic microphone is an ear, is it a brain with ears?

Even if not better then just ai voice recognition. Sending experiences trough neural matter and using ai to analyze the way it responds will learn us a lot about how the brain actually works.

The way I understand the potential for infinite simulated universes starts with the idea that once a species is cable of doing one, it makes sense to make more of them. If those simulations had their own simulations We also would not be able to tell where we where at the chain from our single point of reference.

I agree with all you said but

“Views an album called bikinis as extra large icons to avoid displaying them as recently open files” “ after fixing the tech problem, copying the photos to a personal usb stick”

Its disgusting and inexcusable behavior no matter how naive or dumb the client may be.

Mind = blown

TIL about alleyway frontage, now that i pay attention to it i have seen it plenty of times in media but so rarely in real life.

Those are some massive houses though.

Is it just me or is the thumbnail from this post a perfect example of classwarfare in action?

Why do only the bigger houses get a lane of trees in front?

Oh fuck thats on lemmy, i thought it was reddit.

We gotta fix that, of course when a discussion gets out of control/racist we ought to lock it, maybe a warning and disclaimer. but i see no justification for fully removing these.

We Evolve!

There something really satisfying about witnessing a community starting to talk about serious a issue and days later see things already improved.

Lemmy is now the internet, glory to all volunteer devs. Lets make it the best place we possibly can!

Does this need to connect to openai or does it function fully independently? Its for offline use.

It works very different from how i would want it to work for sure. I specified internet technology for a reason though. The creative limit i put on myself is that all systems should remain fully independent with the exception of hardware requirements. Everything remains local for now.
