Has your gluetun image been kept up-to-date, btw? Changes to compose file or not, there were IIRC two breaking changes in gluetun connectivity with Proton due to changes in the Proton CLI, the two of them were recent enough, I think in v3.38 and v3.40.

Oh you have to deal with the actually gnarly parts of git… sending my condolences.

Wow, calling asking to identify if something is a thing by the name of the thing that it’s being asked about is “bully culture” now? This is a whole new low level of argument in the pro-AI take.

Oh i2P is definitively a better option where you can have it. However, Tor is somewhat more approachable as of current: we have for example Tor Browser for the masses, whereas I at least haven’t heard of any sort of “I2P Browser” at least for Firefox. Of the three options, Tor is the only one I know that is “portable” (you don’t need to be able to make admin-level network changes to use it).

The fact that the thread is titled “is lutris slop now” is a clear indication that the intention of the poster wasn’t to contribute anything constructive but to attack the dev and put them on their back foot.

No, it was literally an important question to have answered. And booooy did the dev answer.

But in the end they are just tools to automate things

No. They are, specifically, tools to automate things in the most destructive way possible.

You can do that with 99.9% less damage to the environment and the working class with git -f rebase, or even the old tried and true method of rm -rf && git pull ....

AI does generate societal damage, but that’s mostly because of how companies abuse it and less because of the technology itself.

Don’t excuse the technology. It was created to be useless and wasteful. Every question on an AI engine helps burn down entire forests. Every AI that is kept awaken and serving dries the lagoons and rivers of an indigenous tribe, if not a small town. Every model is built upon the sustained theft of art, code and identity, to the point the main financers are proud of it and using it as legal justification.

People who are evil, made a tool for evil, and those using the tool of evil are doing little more than enabling evil. Number must go up.

Professionally I don’t feel like I have a choice, if I want to stay employed in the field at least.

On the contrary!

I’ve seen quite a number of “AI cleanup specialist” job offerings so far, and even a few consulting positions on training juniors away from using AI in development.

(No, I have not seen any position open on training management away from using AI…)

You guys have employers?

Meta said it’s fine so it obviously is!

If he can’t be trusted to help .1% amount of the population, how can he be trusted to help .6%, or 26%?

I’m all up for the elimination of TSA agents. The old fashioned French way, even, to make it more efficient and to send a clear message.

Double into the trash it goes.

Public torrents were never something I understood for anything not open source.

It’s quite simple: you get to find actionable content without needing to enter someone else’s Ponzi scheme. It is well known and documented that most private trackers are crap (eg.: the recent YGTL news) and even if they weren’t, they are still not really a good (or even medium) option for situations like people behind CGNAT.

You Can (Not?) Pirate

Have him mail his vote. Or hve him attend the voting in cuffs.

Come on, am I expected to do your whole homework? What side are you even on?

Simple, have them arrested and delivered to the Ohio trial. That way you are not preventing them from conducting their duties but actually helping perform two (obeying the arrest and testifying at the court), so there’s no foul.

I like how you think.

Simple, issue an arrest warrant, right?
