Mirroring works best if you monkey them. Just repeat the exact words just like in an ape voice. A little pantomime helps, too.

Go Ahead. I'm still struggling to find the time to learn Rust. I read the first few chapters of the book, but I'm a bit stuck due to too many side-projects. 😆

With Lemmy, I'd advise you to ask first. Lots of open-source projects gladly accept merge requests... But I think the Lemmy developers/community is a bit different. As far as I know a few people have been burned because they put in days of work and their requests didn't get accepted. That shouldn't stop you, I'd just say ask the devs first so you don't waste your time.

Is this an honest question?

If yes: Read the info here: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/administration/administration.html

That is the installation guide.

If you're not that tech-savy I recommend using a self-hosting platform like YunoHost or Cosmos.

You have to at least put some effort in and google it and read the instructions yourself. Everyone is invited to run their own instance of Lemmy, and so are you.

You'd need a domain and some sort of server. Any VPS will do or some 24/7 online device at home if you can do port forwards on your home internet connection.

I'd invite you to have a look at it. If you're really interested, feel free to ask follow-up questions.

Regarding your other question: Yes, you can.

I think they're using Widevine DRM. And with DRM they can enforce whatever arbitrary policies they like. They set special restrictions for Linux. I think Amazon set 480p as max, Netflix 720p and YouTube 4k or sth like that. AFAIK it has little to do with technology. It's just a number that the specific company sets in their configuration.

Quite some AI questions coming up in selfhosted in the last few days...

I'm using koboldcpp and ollama. KoboldCpp is really awesome. In terms of hardware it's an old PC with lots of RAM but no graphics card, so it's quite slow for me. I occasionally rent a cloud GPU instance on runpod.io Not doing anything fancy, mainly role play, recreational stuff and I occasionally ask it to give me creative ideas for something, translate something or re-word or draft an unimportant text / email.

Have tried coding, summarizing and other stuff, but the performance of current AI isn't enough for my everyday tasks.

Ah, nice. Thanks for sharing.

Yeah, but usually with open-source software you get like 150 Github comments complaining and outlining their shady business practices... If there's something to complain about.

The XZ disaster is an example for sth else. There are probably more backdoors in proprietary software that we just don't know about. And they can just keep it hidden away and force the manufacturers to do so. No elaborate social engineering like in the XZ case needed... And no software is safe. They all have bugs and most of them depend on third-party libraries. That has nothing to do with being open or closed source. If so, being open provides you with more of a chance to catch mischievous behaviour. At least generally speaking. There will be exceptions to this rule.

I don't think you can use Retrieval Augmented Genaration or vector databases for a task like that. At least not if you want to compare the whole papers and not just a single statement or fact. And that'd be what most tools are focused on. As far a I know the tools that are concerned with big PDF libraries are meant to retrieve specific information out of the library. Relevant to a specific question from the user. If your task is to go through the complete texts, it's not the right tool because it's made to only pick out chunks of text.

I'd say you need an LLM with a long context length, like 128k or way more, fit all the texts in and add your question. Or you come up with a clever agent. Make it summarize each paper individually or extract facts, then feed that result back and let it search for contradictions, or do a summary of the summaries.

(And I'm not sure if AI is up to the task anyways. Doing meta-studies is a really complex task, done by highly skilled professionals of a field. And it takes them months... I don't think current AI's performance is anywhere near that level. It's probably going to make something up instead of outputting anything that's related to reality.)

I don't know. In the tv documentary they made it look like fun.

hoerbuch.us if you want German content.

Easy thing. Just pick an animal that you don't need to turn back from. I'd say a search-and-rescue dog is probably having a blast and a good life.
