"Using the hashtag #AllStarTrek. If you don’t get the H&I station, you can also stream. Join our group @allstartrek for updates!

Another great night of episodes! Featuring Tuvix because people have some strong feelings!

  • TOS (8ET): This Side of Paradise
  • TNG (9ET): I, Borg
  • DS9 (10 ET): Shadows and Symbols
  • VOY (11 ET): Tuvix
  • ENT (midnight): The Breach"

  • I like where your head's at, but Mastodon's system of verification seems much easier to me and doesn't rely on a third party.

  • Also this is not a news article, it's an opinion essay. It's perfectly reasonable to read this at any time.

  • For YouTube tutorial videos I have no issue with relying on GPT, but I think it's important to recognize that the translation of art is art. I don't feel good about the idea of something without a soul or perspective interpolating a work of art from one culture and language into another that might be wildly different from where it started.

    That all said, I think Crunchyroll and anyone else using AI art without disclosing it absolutely should be honest about it.

  • Because unlike Mastodon there is no one main "discussion forum" fedi app, we have Lemmy, mbin, kbin, piefed. The term has nothing to do with Meta Threads!

  • twas a joke, but that's a nice feature!

  • Storing upvote / downvote totals you gave to each user, and a setting to display that history next to their name.

    Where is the instance that autobans any account that users have downvoted X times? /s

  • Lemmy does feel more and more like 4chan every day...

  • The term "reasoning model" is as gaslighting a marketing term as "hallucination". When an LLM is "Reasoning" it is just running the model multiple times. As this report implies, using more tokens appears to increase the probability of producing a factually accurate response, but the AI is not "reasoning", and the "steps" of it "thinking" are just bullshit approximations.

  • It's annoying to be treated that way isn't it?

  • That's a good point, I have no doubt Linux would not be in the position it is if he were more sensitive to it.

  • Anyone else here actively put off by Linux drama and headlines like "Torvalds Drops support After Clash!"

    EDIT: New rule?

  • lemm.ee has shut down for good

  • I think linkrot is happening much faster here than on reddit, even if just counting deleted posts.

    Are you sure? Are lemm.ee posts showing as deleted for you? It looks like the copies of anything posted to lemm.ee still exist on the instances that it was federated with. Try this link !animation@lemm.ee, I am pretty sure it should still work on your instance.

  • Not positive but IIRC with Fedora you can change updates to weekly/monthly etc.

  • Star Trek VI is the best one, IMO. It has:

    • Historical allegories
    • Political intrigue
    • Mystery
    • Anti-racist themes
    • Spaceship battles
    • Awkward Chekhov
  • Yeah haha, as the other guy said, this drive definitely seems on the louder side of average, but the thing I wanted to illustrate is the pattern of the sound which I think is distracting at any volume.

  • It's probably a matter of taste, but every one I've ever heard was absolutely not something I would want next to me on my desk while I was trying to focus.

    I don't have a reddit account anymore but someone should definitely post this to /r/RedditAlternatives (or anywhere else)

    Deep Space Nine season 2 appreciation post

    Been watching DS9 Season two and have been very impressed with the quality. I remembered it being "pretty good" but in my memory it was "the season with "The Circle" trilogy, "Melora", "Rivals" and "The Maquis", episodes and story lines that never really did it for me. I think that made me forget how many really good one-off episodes were also here, to name a few:

    • "Necessary Evil"
    • "Rules of Acquisition"
    • "The Alternate"
    • "Armageddon Game"
    • "Whispers"
    • "Paradise"
    • "Shadowplay"

    All bangers!

    Also I love how this season ever so slowly drip-drops dominion references culminating with the season finale "The Jem Hadar"

    "The problem I've found is that it's easy enough to create a Reddit clone using Lemmy, but getting people to actually use it is the issue."

    Someone should probably jump in and explain what federation means.

    A good thread to mention Lemmy in - a Daily Show segment about social media companies, most of the commenters don't seem to realize that nonprofit social media exists!

    Ereader @lemmy.ml

    Best/most seamless eReader for Wallabag compatibility?

    I have an aging Kindle and am looking for a new eReader to both read books and articles I've saved throughout the day. I use Wallabag to save articles. I like it over Pocket because it's better for paywalls because it fetches content directly from the browser.

    I am leaning Kobo because of apps like Wallabako and KoReader (not exactly what that is yet but people seem to like it).

    Anyone else have a similar setup or have any advice?

    Lemmy mentioned in an r/coolguides post "A cool guide for leaving big tech." - You know what to do

    Note that r/coolguides is a very "normie" subreddit and may require extra handholding. There are a lot of people who don't seem to understand what "open source" means. Some looking for "The Lemmy app" etc. Be patient and helpful!
