Also just saw there's a lemmy community here: https://slrpnk.net/c/permacomputing

Obviously this had already been posted multiple times to lemmy, didn't know until now. Worth reposting anyway :)

a bit more culturally mature in the sense of diversity of philosophy.

More culturally mature in which ways? Very curious to read anything about it.

Let's not conflate having values with having made contributions.

Yes sure, but a contribution is already a statement in itself. I don't mind if the person is "not good". I'd be tempted to answer you by quoting you (without attempting to make it cryptic or cynical): life is indeed complex. There's like an infinity of viewpoints on why people contribute to foss, but I think if people do, it's because they're getting value out of it, and as a result, the whole community does. Most foss contributors mind that.

Now if you keep alluding to deeper points without actually making them, I don't see what I'd gain by continuing this conversation.

Sinto muito, a mesma coisa aconteceu comigo com meu lenovo ontem.

Oui, j'ai l'impression qu'il y a beaucoup de reactions à chaud de personnes qui n'ont pas lu l'annonce complète et bloquent sur "IA dans firefox" sans s'arrêter sur "IA transparente et respectueuse de la vie privée" (et optionnelle).

L'indignation se propage plus vite que les faits.

I don't see the point of romanticizing the scene as preserving some "pure" hacker ethos and conflating it with FOSS.

I'd rather use some free and open source software I can audit and trust rather than some pirated shit some company built.

FOSS creates sustainable value. Companies can build businesses around FOSS through services, support, hosting, and custom development. The scene creates nothing, they don't promote standards, don't think of interoperability and so on.

The internet and the very service you're using run on open source software. The people that build them have values and I don't think at any point they thought of creating something for LLMs to train on - that's like the dumbest conspiracy theory I've read since a long time and it doesn't even make sense timeline-wise.

The original FOSS licenses were designed to restrict corporate exploitation, not enable it (even if you have some more permissive licenses that make more sense to be used in a enterprise context), but it was promoted because it worked better and created value.

Would you say the same thing to an artist that freely shared his art and see his work copied in the output of some generative ai tool? That would be victim-blaming

Je vais d'abord essayer de l'emmener dans un repair café, on verra ce que ça donne

Mon thinkpad t480s est mort :/ Il boote, mais il s'éteint aussitôt. J'ai essayé de virer la barrette de ram que j'avais rajoutée, changer la batterie cmos, mais sans succès. J'ai peur de payer plus cher que je l'ai payé si je le fais réparer

If the official API is restricted (...), the app parses the website or uses an internal API instead

This is fine to me. Tor frontend or not, you could not access anything if google services went down. I'm all for people putting content on other platforms, but for now for consuming content from youtube I'm ok with adopting this solution.

Now, if you want to go on with a project that massively mirrors youtube, feel free!

Excuse the possibly stupid question, but I see it's using swi-prolog. So it's some kind of tool to test hypotheses using prolog but somewhat enhanced by machine learning? I guess I'd need to read the paper, just not sure this is within my reach 😅 Just did a bit of prolog at the university (which was a blast)

I'd better have him exposed to a greater audience than preaching for a bunch of already converted fans

Plus I don't think he gets to choose where the Daily Show post anything.

Also not sure about your points about NewPipe. It only fetches video and channel info, without using the Google API or the need of you being logged into yt, so it's still pretty good when in comes to privacy.
