Good job putting to words one of the core issues I’ve had with using LLM chat for work. Stop trying to design an entire fucking system or solution and just answer the damn question I actually asked, by using natural language to search documentation and existing implementations.
I would tell it to only answer exactly what I asked, but sometimes I do get value from it “exploring” on occasion. It’s just so much damn worse with it than my newest junior co-worker who is known on our team for getting hours deep into tangential rabbit holes before coming up for air and asking seemingly nonsequiteur questions.


Doesn’t help the conversation that some LLM chat systems call minor customization of the prompt making an agent.
Under duress I use CoPilot Chat at work. No, the basic sad customization I did along the lines of “don’t be sycophantic, always cite sources, use these specific official documentation sites as sources before searching outside of them and clearly call out when you search outside them” that customization isn’t making a damn agent, it’s adjusting the prompt and saving those changes you disingenuous marketing fucks!


It’s pretty weird over on lemmy.sdf and I try to just take qrstuv (EDIT: this was wesker, not qrstuv. Wesker also gets up to some trolling) as some odd performance art. Funhole, Linux Surrealism, and bun alert are great, but most every other community is run by qrstuv, and they can be oddly tyrannical outside of Funhole. Their entire account is practically digital performance art. EDIT: Wesker tends to be a little bit more “normal” rather than too weird to die all the time, but there’s still a ton of lighthearted in-joking and trolling going on.
I’m pretty sure that community was originally created by qrstuv to bait someone who was being shit in the Funhole community into complaining about the legitimate moderation actions taken against them, then see how long it took them to realize they were being responded to by the very person who banned them.
My take would be that, yes, it is absurd to call correcting terminology victim blaming, and that’s the “joke”.
EDIT: I’d actually check the mod log to see if any action was taken against you besides a trolling comment. Would be willing to bet there isn’t actually.
Also, the joke of going: “Item A: blah, Item 2: blah” should be pointed out.
It’s not a legitimate mod abuse community, it’s effectively a -jerk style comm for shitposting around the theme.

Huh? Are you calling yourself brainrotted or something? I mirrored the language you used yourself.
Point is that there are instances set up in ways to have less of the shit you’re complaining about, but instead you’re using an instance that isn’t… and complaining about it.


Part of the user base issue is the same with most “alternative social media”. A not-insignificant amount of the users will be here because their behavior got them banned from or wasn’t tolerated in other spaces.


If you don’t want to hear people complain about leftism, there’s always hexbear and beehaw. Why you would complain about it from an instance that tries not to defed anything when there are dedicated leftist spaces is beyond me.


At this point I think a lot of people, OP included, would tolerate plenty more noise as long as it isn’t “everything sucks and you should be mad about it!”
Yeah, signal is better than noise, but the signal itself becomes noise when it’s all so damn much doom and gloom and aggression and frustration and generally negative emotions. It’s not healthy to constantly drink from the fire hose of “this is everything wrong with everything”
And as an aside, I find that the quality of conversation around a lot of the political “signal” has been slipping too.


Smartest might be a stretch
Looks to me like an out of focus shot of Joey, the guy that wrote the “a softer world” comics, sitting on the ground.
It’s more of an artsy webcomic than necessarily a comedic one, although there are plenty of funny ones. Some of them are more musings about the world than anything else, as I feel this one is.
This is a particular message that stuck with me in the more than a decade since I first read it, and it’s damn good advice.
Love that disco ball. Do you have a globe hanging from the ceiling to complete the switch up?


I would expect so given that the Sonic 3D Blast “director’s cut” romhack looked like they may have been building it on top of a source code backup instead of hex-editing or reverse engineering.
Personally, I feel like it’s not too fair to hold that against a known developer where this stuff is attached to their real life identity. I’ve always thought that if I ever did indie game dev that I’d make part of the contract that everything would go open source etc after say a decade. That said, especially for licensed games built by a company instead of one guy solo, the reality of contracts and legality isn’t that cut and dry.
Maybe someday they’ll end up on the open web, but even if they do I’d be shocked if a dev just went “I’m dumping all my dev copies/content publicly with my real name! Come at me lawyers, I ain’t scared!”.


Fair enough. I work in IT but endpoint config and group policy isn’t my area at work, so most of my experience is with my personal computers at home. I at least usually hear the latest bullshit Microsoft is pulling from our endpoint management/config guy.
I should also bear in mind that I stripped down and customized the hell out of the install media before I last installed Windows on any of my devices, and I’ve run a shit ton of other customization/privacy/debloat tools afterwards as well. Usually by examining the policy and registry edits or PowerShell code they run and just picking and choosing parts for myself. Lots of good tools out there, but none I trust to do exactly what I want with no oversight or investigation.
I’d still say that Group Policy is usually the best option for configuration shit sticking though, due to it being Microsoft’s “business side” solution for endpoint config for quite a while now.


Except that these are group policy settings. The stuff they provide to allow businesses to manage their endpoints. Businesses that actually have enough size and money for Microsoft to care. Businesses that can have strict audit and data security requirements relating to things like not allowing data to even brush against something like OneDrive.
To be more direct, the only reason I can’t count the number of times they’ve broken a Group Policy is because I legitimately don’t recall it happening in the past decade.


Not trying to be mean, but when’s the last time you spent any time with a kid around that age? My toddler is doing things along those lines with her hands in every picture I have of her.
It’s literally the test run/marketing push for this open source chip. Yes they will be available outside of just being built into the badge. On other forums there are people who pre-ordered the chip (before it was announced to be used in the badge) who are saying they have confirmation their order shipped.


Firefox or one of it’s many many forks is the way to go. Personally I use IronFox as a browser that’s locked down by default, with some heavy uBlock Origin as blocking (it’s a less featured uMatrix), and an “on device VPN” app for DNS filtering for device wide ad blocking.
I just want to know what happened to plans 1-8
