It sounds like what they ultimately want is one place to look at both read-it-later stuff and starred RSS articles. My read is that they are proposing one way to do it, but ultimately it’s not super workable that way. There are no clients I know of that are both RSS clients and read-it-later clients (using pocket, wallabag, or anything else).

If OP wants one place to see both, their best bet is to find a read-it-later server that can generate RSS feeds, subscribe to those, and now everything is RSS and behaves the same. Wallabag is a great option for that and is self-hostable.

This is exactly what I do and it works great.

http://wallabag.it/ can publish your read-it-laters to RSS

It’s even simpler than that: In the first instance a human learned a thing. In the second instance a bunch of humans wrote software to ingest art and spit out some Frankenstein of it. Software which is specifically designed to replace artists, many of whom likely had art used as inputs to said software without their consent.

In both cases humans did things. The first is normal, the second is shitty.

Sorry, just to be clear, are you equating a human learning to an organization scraping creative works as inputs for their software?

The OSI doesn’t require open access to training data for AI models to be considered “open source”, unfortunately. https://opensource.org/ai/open-source-ai-definition

I agree that “open weights” is a more apt description, though

uh sure. My point is that sharing weights is analogous to sharing a compiled binary, not source code.

"Wait, so we have all the technology we need to stop climate change, but we have to sacrifice some profits to do so?

Well, since it’s impossible to stop climate change with current technology, I guess we just have to dump chemicals into the atmosphere and hope for the best."

The definition of “open source” AI sucks. It could just mean that the generated model weights are shared under an open source license. If you don’t have the code used to train the model under an open source license, or you can’t fully reproduce the model using the code they share and open source datasets, then calling a model “open source” feels weird as hell to me.

At the same time, I don’t know of a single modern model that only used training data that was taken with informed consent from the creators of that data.

Invidious is switching to a new paradigm where the part that talks to YouTube will be split out into it’s own service called invidious-companion. While not part of the current release, they have instructions for setting it up, and it’s what I’m currently using. The only things that don’t work right now are live videos and the Clipious Android TV app (the phone app works fine). If you don’t need either of those things, I recommend starting with invidious-companion

My self-hosted Invidious instance is still going strong

ArcaneChat is dope. I’m testing it out with my partner right now. The built-in Jitsi button is super helpful. My extended family (about 30 people) switched over to signal a few years ago, so there is some inertia there, but for any new chats, DeltaChat (and ArcaneChat for Android users) is what I’m going to push for.

Yeah I really don’t know how they thought that was a good explanation for them to remove the “we won’t sell your data” stuff. Absolutely bonkers.

I played the shit out of Generals with my brother. Very happy to see this.

Kill it with fire

Another option that has not been mentioned yet is WriteFreely https://writefreely.org/

Yeah, that is a serious problem. Thankfully, my local transit agency still offers the ability to use a card instead of an app, but you have to request it online to be sent in the mail. It took a month to get mine. Really not ideal.

Pretty easy to find on a search engine:

Either he likes Nazi shit or he thinks its funny to pretend he likes Nazi shit to make people upset.

I use a 2013 macbook air for this kind of thing. It works great!

Linus is definitely not American. That is no excuse he way he just ignored the dma maintainer’s behavior and that is no excuse for why nobody in leadership did or said anything even after the connotation of the phrase was explained by another in the thread. The only thing that brought enough attention for any comment was marcan’s responses, and Linus just basically came in and said to stop making noise.

Yeah, this looks like trying to avoid conflict by shutting down a person pushing back against bad behavior, instead of trying to mediate the situation to come to a just resolution. It’s shallow and gross and not sustainable.
