Nonsense. Your metaphor is not analogous.
Sophisticated tech firms do extensive analysis with reference groups, A/B testing, et cetera.
Guaranteed, they've found that they get better engagement with their product through these AI results.
This might shock you but a group of 14 year olds complaining on Lemmy is not an indicative sample of opinions.
Hyperbole & subjective. Flatpaks aren't all that.
My point is, it seems like moat people disagree with you given that search providers put this stuff in their results.
Obviously I pay for a search engine. The advertising funded web is shit.
That's true, but I think people still appreciate it... like it's accurate enough, enough of the time, for people to find it helpful.
I like kagi more than ddg. It's not free but meh.
Ugh. Do you really want that though? They do have a store don't they? Just no one wants to use it.
Debian has had a browseable catalog since forever but it's still waaay better to just go to a third party's website and see how they say to install whatever thing.
I feel like most commenters here would think "no one wants the stupid ai response", but obviously some people like it or they wouldn't do it. I think if your searches are more general kind of "can I catch chicken pox from chickens" type questions it might be helpful ?
Dude. When you're looking at whatever search just right click in the url bar and there will be an option to add that search engine. Then in settings you can make it your default if you wish.
The reason I don't use SearXNG is because the public instances always seem to be slow and or broken.
This is a really valid point, especially because it's not only faster but dramatically cheaper.
The thing is, summaries which are pretty terrible might be costly. If decision makers are relying on these summaries and they're inaccurate, then the consequences might be immeasurable.
Suppose you're considering 2 cars, one is very cheap but on one random day per month it just won't start, the other is 5x the price but will work every day. If you really need the car to get to work, then the one that randomly doesn't start might be worse than no car at all.
Lots of people do lots of things.
I have a second sim card for my phone. I just turn off that sim when I'm not working, and set my status as away for group chat.
In this context, there isn't any tangible benefit to having a second phone.
I wouldn't be surprised if that's how it plans out.
A regular group chat and another signal one for when you specifically need to talk to OP.
Having two phones absolutely sucks. Didn't work for me at all.
It's nice to be nice.
While higher prices cab make products more appealing, that is not the primary reason why vegan products are more expensive.
Correct. That's precisely why producers of meat patties can still be profitable at a much lower price point.
It's social media, who's making scientific postulates?
It's not rudimentary, it's a complex system reduced to a few sentences.
-
Vegan patties have been around forever.
-
There aren't significantly more barriers to entry for food products than other industries.
-
Yes vendors want high prices, but that applies to any product, not only vegan products.
The answer is, as everyone else has pointed out, economies of scale. There's a larger market with more participants producing more beef burgers than there are vegan patties.
I want to put some devices like NVR, modem, router, et cetera in a closet.
I'm having an electrician install a 240v AC power socket in the closet.
I'd like to cut a hole in the top of the closet through to the ceiling cavity for an exhaust fan.
I'm hoping to decommission my home server so I'd like to avoid having to run exhaust fans from a computer / PC power supply.
With all that in mind, I'm looking for one or more devices that will allow me to run two PWM case fans with thermostat from 240v.
Just wondered if any one is using block lists for their docker containers.
IPSum publishes a great list of IPs worth blocking.
The thing is, I know docker networking interacts with iptables in a complex way such that the iptables INPUT chain is ignored.
The docker docs say you can put custom rules in DOCKER-USER chain, but my iptables knowledge isn't great and I think I'm more likely to mess something up than to have any success.
The thing is, I'm sure that this is something loads of other people have encountered, and I'm sure there must be an easier way.
The evidence is equivocal on whether screen time is to blame for rising levels of teen depression and anxiety — and rising hysteria could distract us from tackling the real causes.
In Perth for Easter weekend.
What are some cool things to do / places to visit?
If anyone could point me to some information or guide about this I'd really appreciate that.
I think the official com.android.gsm and friends need to be uninstalled first. I've tried that with adb, console reports "success", Google Play Services is no longer listed in Settings > Apps.
But... if I try to install MicroG via Fdroid or Droid-ify it goes through the install process, there's no error, but MicroG Core is not shown as "installed". If I try to install the apk with adb it says the currently installed version is newer than the one I'm trying to install?
microg.org seems to just assume you know how to install.
I read something about signature spoofing but I thought that was only for older devices.
Any insights / suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Edit: I think this is the answer: https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-degoogle-any-device-and-install-microg.4058743/
rsync.net Warrant Canary
Existing and proposed laws, especially as relate to the US Patriot Act, etc., provide for secret warrants, searches and seizures of data, such as library records.
Some such laws provide for criminal penalties for revealing the warrant, search or seizure, disallowing the disclosure of events that would materially affect the users of a service such as rsync.net.
rsync.net and its principals and employees will in fact comply with such warrants and their provisions for secrecy.
rsync.net will also make available, weekly, a "warrant canary" in the form of a cryptographically signed message containing the following:
-
a declaration that, up to that point, no warrants have been served, nor have any searches or seizures taken place
-
a cut and paste headline from a major news source, establishing date
Special note should be taken if these messages ever cease being updated, or are removed from this page.
The current message is here:

No warrants have ever been served to rsync.net, or rsync.net principals or employees. No searches or seizures of any kind have ever been performed on rsync.net assets, including:

Notes:
This scheme is not infallible. Although signing the declaration makes it impossible for a third party to produce arbitrary declarations, it does not prevent them from using force to coerce rsync.net to produce false declarations. The news clip in the signed message serves to demonstrate that that update could not have been created prior to that date. It shows that a series of these updates were not created in advance and posted on this page.
I downloaded all my photos with google takeout.
The folder structure is an absolute mess.
It would be nice to organise them into YYYY/MM folders but I haven't been able to think of an easy way to do that.
I note that all images seem to have sidecar files ? Like matching json files. I've never encountered these before and not really aware of any command line tools that support them. It's just another challenge as regards writing a script to re-organise files.
Any insights much appreciated.
