I host an instance for my own personal use. It lives on my local network and nowhere else. I just use wg-tunnel on my phone to automagically VPN home when I’m out. It’s just not worth the headache to expose it publically IMO.

Technology@lemmy.world•The Internet goes on high alert after discovery of 8 compromised TLS certs
9·13 days agoYou’re absolutely right, I had shit all mixed up in my head. Oops 😅 thank you for the correction.

Technology@lemmy.world•The Internet goes on high alert after discovery of 8 compromised TLS certs
18·13 days agoMITM HTTPS traffic without a key doesn’t really let you do much of anything, especially with stuff like HSTS. You can mess with DNS, but the whole certificate authority thing is meant to make it so you can’t redirect someone’s traffic to a malicious server.
This leaked private key completely destroys that guarantee, making it extremely scary. ~Plus, saved traffic for any site signed by this key which didn’t use PFS will be subject to post-facto decryption.~
edit: I don’t know wtf I was thinking, the decryption thing is nonsense.

Technology@lemmy.world•Other AI Companies Should Be Very Afraid of What Just Happened to Character.AI, According to Its Own Bankruptcy Documents: Be afraid.
15·18 days agoAt least according to Ed Zitron, they only appeared profitable due to creative bookkeeping. They timed the announcement of their shitty “annualized revenue” to coincide with the few months of vastly reduced rent at the datacenter Musk rented to them as well as the shift to token based billing for enterprise customers. Their inference is likely not profitable.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Do you still do the "L" thing with your hands to check left and right?
10·1 month agoI do on occasion. I was very frustrated when I learned that left and right comes as naturally as up and down for most people.

News@lemmy.world•The U.S. Government Quietly Just Made It Legal to Go Through Your Phone at the Border
5·1 month agoI imagine that you’re fine if you do it before ever approaching the border. You could just say “my phone was giving me major problems so I had to factory reset it, and I just haven’t had time to set everything back up.”
Having dealt with mountains of frontier-LLM-generated slop from once-good senior engineers, I’m feeling pretty competitive.
I did some searching but couldn’t find it. I’m also quite curious.
When you use a scrubby sponge on a scorched pan, the scrubby part becomes much darker and seems gross and dirty. It can be very difficult to remove the gross brown stain from the sponge. People like to use sponges for a while, but nobody wants to use the gross brown poop sponge, so folks attempt to clean them. This process is extremely frustrating.
Manjaro isn’t Arch. Doesn’t use the same repos.

Technology@lemmy.world•Fairphone Is Finally Selling Its Repairable Phone in the US
3·3 months agoI use one of those every night and they’re awful. I buy them 5 at a time because they’re not very durable, and you end up with this especially irritating tangle of cables.
Look, I get it. It’s Q3 2026, and we should expect that everyone is utilizing AI at SOME point in their process (sourcing ideas, creating outlines, refining prose, etc.).
Should we?

Technology@lemmy.world•Australians to get at least three hours a day of free solar power – even if they don’t have solar panels
19·3 months agoIf you want to use your own power and not give it to the grid, then don’t use a grid tie inverter. Get some batteries and only accept power from the grid, never feed back into it. If you’re feeding into the communal system, expect the rules to not always be exactly what you want. Don’t we all want people to use clean daytime solar power instead of dirty fossil fuel-based nighttime power?
I’ve got a Brocade ICX6610 that’s been quite nice.

Technology@lemmy.world•BMW Is Showing Commercials On Their Car's Dash Screens And They Want You To Think It's A Treat
8·3 months agoI will continue to pray for Slate to not completely suck. There’s a “smart” module that has a cellular modem, but it’s something you have to opt into and pay for it.
What is this from?
well that’s no fun!


I’d argue that humanism is a bit different from, say, Christianity. It has ancient philisophilcal roots, but it’s not like humanists are following texts from some crazy asshole tripping balls in a desert 2000 years ago.
