Hello there!
I boost a lot of posts, but I have a few things to say every now and then.
I am largely fine with boosting posts from people I disagree with even on significant, dividing issues. I usually don't, however, if they actively advocate for these ideas... so it goes :/

Whoever decided that using computers for voting is pretty naive.

@itnewsbot I hate piracy... but emulators are not illegal.

Damn, looks like Yuzu is donezo now.
Rip LDN for the time being, because afaik you need a Yuzu account to run that atm. 😔
@Shanoa Looks like there is more to the story than this. There was a lawsuit https://www.theverge.com/2024/3/4/24090357/nintendo-yuzu-emulator-lawsuit-settlement
I always assumed that Yuzu was just a company-less open-source project like many others, but I just read that Yuzu had a company behind it, #TropicHaze
@Shanoa That stinks.... At least, since it's open-source, people can theoretically continue development of it. Unless I'm missing something.
I get it though... I hate piracy too
Time is insensitive...

@briankrebs I wonder what its biases are.

Finally, a positive use for AI!
Been playing with a free new tool from the folks at Unit 221B that uses AI to read news stories or watch Youtube videos and give them a bias or "spin" score, based on a number of criteria (bias, fallacy, misleading info).
One potentially cool thing about this tool is that you can feed it a story you've written (but not published yet) to see if it contains any of those criteria. It even has an option to read a "bias-free" version of the story you've submitted, which alters the text in an attempt to temper or remove those biases.
The one downside is it can take some time to process a story and tell you what it thinks of it. Here are some links to Spin Score's analyses on different stories that came across my feed here today or that showed up on Youtube front today.

I might know a lot of things about computers, but one thing I don't know is why #MicrosoftTeams is using over half a gigabyte of memory.

@CM30 I wish Mastodon polls were more permissive....
@torproject @tails Not enough systems have protection against malicious USB devices...
@CM30 I've heard well of that soundtrack. I should give it a listen.
@CM30 That song
@ActionRetro Oh cool, you're in PA too 😀 Love your videos!
I've been playing around with Haiku in a VM. It's pretty simple and I'm excited to see where it goes.
I really want to run it on bare hardware, but it won't fully boot on my System76 Serval WS. Considering loading it on a computer for taking notes in my college classes. That'd be "sick".
