All my devices and networks are constantly on VPN, it’s just basic obscurity, and it’s such a hassle posting on Lemmy now - my activity is probably down 90%.

Could you please consider allowing basic text posts and / or comments from behind a VPN? You could even disallow all markdown - that’s a decent trade off for my sake.

But please don’t just block all VPN usage if there are options you have not explored yet.

Alas. They have said they plan to open some of the source and potentially everything, but it’s little progress.

They recently ported to Linux, which I think will give them much more negative feedback here, so hopefully with more pressure they’ll find the correct copy left license and open up their source to build trust.

There are two modes of AI integrations. The first is a standard LLM in a side panel. It’s search and learning directly in the terminal, with the commands I need directly available to run where I need them. What you get is the same as if you used ChatGPT to answer your questions, then copied the part of the answer you needed to your terminal and run it.

There is also AI Command Suggestion, where you’ll start to type a command / search prefixed by # and get commands directly back to run. It’s quite different from auto-complete (there is very good auto-complete and command suggestion as well, I’m just talking about the AI specific features here).

It’s just a convenient placement of AI at your fingertips when working in the terminal.

Warp.dev! It’s the best terminal I’ve used so far, and the best use of AI as well! It’s extremely useful with some AI help for the thousands of small commands you know exist but rarely uses. And it’s very well implemented.

But that’s literally what you do, you build a starter factory to help you build a mid tier research factory which can then help you build a proper factory that can support megascale production

Cool, now do it over Ping!

Ah yeah that’s nowhere even close to registering where I live, luckily.

Ok I’m dumb, ELI5?

It’s really cool, but the example doesn’t produce any sensible output? If you have created something like this, why wouldn’t you have your demo output something sensible like Fibonacci or 1337 or whatever.

All these examples are not just using stable diffusion though. They are using an LLM to create a generative image prompt for DALL-E / SD, which then gets executed. In none of these examples are we shown the actual prompt.

If you instead instruct the LLM to first show the text prompt, review it and make sure the prompt does not include any elephants, revise it if necessary, then generate the image, you’ll get much better results. Now, ChatGPT is horrible in following instructions like these if you don’t set up the prompt very specifically, but it will still follow more of the instructions internally.

Anyway, the issue in all the examples above does not stem from stable diffusion, but from the LLM generating an ineffective prompt to the stable diffusion algorithm by attempting to include some simple negative word for elephants, which does not work well.

You have also implemented a ban on any contribution from a VPN without announcing it. It has been very annoying to figure out.

Please do announce these kind of changes and limitations you implement publicly unless you absolutely cannot.

It’s coming, a redesign will hopefully hit beta very soon now.

Right hand rule ftw. I learned that from a sweat old lady who was the Health Minister of Beijing. I trust in her wisdom.

You forgot the first rule of Usenet: We do not talk about Usenet. That’s why it works. Keep talking and see what happens.

I understand the frustration, but I do believe this is a strength of Lemmy. Small; individual communities is what gives incentive to stay independent, and if you just want the broader content, that’s exactly where and why large instances like Lemmy World is also beneficial.

I think part of the issue stems from Lemmy not having a good way of tracking a topic / community defined on multiple instances, so you have to track a community on each instance. People want the most active one, so they track the one on LW since it has the most members. And since they track mostly communities on LW it also makes sense to just use LW as the primary.

If Lemmy could have some inbuilt support for tags or subscribing to a topic / multi-instance community, I think people could feel less inclined of defaulting to the largest instance.

I wouldn’t use Beehaw as the standard, they are way too strict on their moderation in many’s opinion.

I usually close it afterwards, unless I did a stinky - then I’ll leave it open to throw off suspicion.

Similar. I was not pranked or anything. I simply ran it in the wrong folder. Alas, it was a gentoo install so took 3-4 days to recompile.

It’s true that you tend to be more tech literate if you choose Linux. However, it doesn’t mean you can’t be tech literate if you choose Windows or MacOS, which many Linux “advocates” seem to firmly believe. The same goes for “power users” arguments etc.
