I think your URL to the github is a hyperlink back to this post...

I wish I was never born to hear this, thank you for sharing.

I love the description.

Hey everyone, so you just finished setting up the *Arr stack and your dashboards lookin crisp. But you look at your htop and see... unused RAM. It’s disgusting, isn't it?

Yes exactly. And I actually believe that artificial intelligence could be a real thing that we might one day describe as a person that makes real art. But everything I see tells me that LLMs are not a path towards that.

It's not the AI that people are calling slop... it's the slop. People-made slop existed before AI and it was still slop.

If this wasn't literally /c/fuckai I would think they were trying to distract from what YouTube is doing...

2025 was the year for me (Fedora Kinoite), Linux in my opinion, is absolutely ready for the mainstream.

Thankfully most of the top games of 2025 run great on a 4060.

I disagree that the Las Vegas Streip needs to be saved in the first place. It's a giant tourist trap surrounded by addiction and economic depression.

What authentic culture does exist in Las Vegas is all downtown, which is actually pretty walkable.

Yeah, this take isn't really exclusive to AI either, luxury products have always involved the best artists and artisans. Generative AI is just exposing the soullessness that has always existed but was masked by underpaid human artists.

Falls suggests that people don’t seem to believe librarians when they explain that a given record doesn’t exist

This happened to me at my job, someone called in asking about something that didn't exist and never did, and insisted with me that I was mistaken when I said we didn't have it. When I asked where they got their information they said "ChatGPT" and when I suggested GPT was hallucinating they didn't seem to understand the term.

Having that exchange IRL with a real human bring honestly kind of shook me up.

 
 

I have a button that triggers a script for bedtime to turn off all lights, and, if pressed again, checks to see if all lights are off and if so, turns a few (like the bathroom light) on.

My problem is one or two of the lights (connected via Zigbee2Mqtt) are often powered off at the switch on the lamp, meaning HA still sees them as "on" until the power is restored and they can be turned "off" via the app. The lights cannot be turned "off" (in HA) manually.

Is there any good solution for detecting when a light goes missing and turning it "off" in HA?

 

I've always wanted to find out what happened to that guy but also the mystery is part of what makes it so compelling.

 
 
 

/c/fuckai has two dozen mods but ironically only time I've ever seen them take action on anyone was when they removed my post asking for recs for a community with more active moderation (lol)

I'd like to discuss generative AI from a highly skeptical perspective but with higher standards of quality and without all the mouth-frothy raging and bad memes of /c/fuckai.

Does anywhere else like that exist on the fediverse? I don't care if it's small/underutilized. And no I'm not interested in creating it myself.
