France’s National Assembly has voted in favour of a new “internet tax” that would charge companies for every gigabyte of data they send to users in France.

Unrelated, but isn’t the response to this just going to be capping video to France at 480p? And what about things like game distribution?

File explorer should be way bigger.

Lol, when did I disagree with your reasoning? At most we disagree on the meaning of ‘local model’. Have a nice rest of your night, sister.

I bet you don’t own or like an absolute gob of them but it doesn’t change their usefulness

I was commenting based on my experience with this stuff, it was a lot of work to set up and the results I got were bad. I never even contended that it could be useful (but I’m reading selectively), I said you that you need decent hardware for it to be useable. I have an RX 6800 XT and 32GB of RAM and it was really slow, even with recommended models.

Jfc why even comment if you’re gonna be so dumb and selective with your reading?

I tried to engage in good faith, and you proceeded to call me an idiot, sorry I reacted poorly to you being rude. You get what you put in.

Just because you don’t understand a tool or how to properly use it does not mean someone else doesn’t.

You brought up the Kimi model up in a conversation about local models being viable, something that requires 8 Nvidia GB300s as a prerequisite. And I’m sorry I don’t follow you’re little hobby close enough for you, I did try it and it sucked.

If you want something useable you need a decent amount of RAM/VRAM and a modern GPU, things that aren’t exactly accessible these days. That Kimi model is apparently half a terabyte in size and requires 100s of GB of VRAM, so I don’t know why you’re saying it’s a ‘local’ model.

Confirmed: the only divine church is the Church of Emacs.

Seems to be a bug in Piefed’s linkify code for punycode. It’s transforming the the double hypen into an en dash.

I know, I read the description. It just looks like a nicer syntax around setting up a tokio runtime and sending code between runtimes. It’d still be nice to have a non-tokio options so stuff could be single threaded.

Huh, that pretty cool actually. I need to play around and see if this works with gtk-rs, channels get fairly annoying if you need to use them a lot.

And if you find the borrow checker annoying in async rust, that’s mostly a tokio issue. Look into smol-rs as it offers alternatives

This is great until you want to use a library which is tokio exclusive, which is most of them.

The Wikipedia article for D links to this blog post which seems pretty damning.

Firefox is now exclusive to ternary computers.

Right is actress Małgorzata Niemirska in an old Polish TV series called Four Tank-Men and a Dog.

This is the thumbnail generation functionality, that would create a local thumbnail for all image posts and keep them around forever. You can disable this by setting image_mode to None in lemmy.hjson and you’ll only store what users actively upload.

It would be more out of character for Starmer to keep his word.

Note, this is ICO not Ofcom, so it’s to do with data collection on minors and not the Online Safety Act.

“I trust the admin here and don’t know about the admin there” is honestly fair. I can see where you’re coming from now, it was just a bit ambiguous.

But yes your name is a bit confusing as well!

Technically, we came first, so it’s the Jerries that are the copycats! (We technically got it from feddit.de, but I didn’t choose the name so my hands are clean)

Nazi bar is certainly a new one. I honestly don’t even know what we’ve done to deserve the accusation, I think we’re being confused with .org here.

I don’t mind if people want nothing to do with us, but I’d appreciate it if it was for stuff we did. Like, I don’t think I can credibly be called a Zionist. Someone once nuked their whole instance because I pushed back on the whole criticising Israel = antisemitism thing!
