I think we need more detail. Are there restrictions about what you can write?
Hi. I'm sorry, I didn't mean it that way. People have put a lot of effort into developing Lemmy as both a software and a community, and it wasn't my intention to devalue anyone's efforts or say that it's a lost cause. I think people should continue using Lemmy. This was just literally my stream of consciousness. I'm more upset that the original Reddit is gone and I wanted to highlight how Lemmy is not a perfect replacement.
Just some thoughts I have on reddit and lemmy and some interesting things I have found. A piece of original content. No AI.

I don't get it
So I had this idea for a long time; tell me what you think. What if we build a web crawler to build a database of YouTube URLs? There's just so much content out there that is only a couple of years old that I feel like nobody is shown anymore. Build a nice little web UI that people can utilize with literally iframes. Basically adjust YouTubes algo to show people what they really want. Maybe get a LLM to parse the titles to determine what kind of video it is, and use it to group related videos together
I used to have a very large air filter standing in the corner of my room. It wouldn't eliminate the need to vacuum, but it would reduce the dust in the air and make it less noticeable. I got rid of it because the filter cartridges were sorta discontinued/really expensive

MOST SCHOOL SHOOTINGS PER CAPITA?
Yeah I'm not super versed in retro handhelds, but I've seen reviews of products that are not too much more expensive, yet offer like 100x the features and performance. I would imagine the ability to load custom ROMs would be a deal breaker. These review units seem one step away from coming in a cereal box, or as a superhero-themed extra toy you get in a movie theater popcorn combo.
Eh, I think there's a need for appropriate technology here. Lemmy is inherently a multi-modal platform, with images, links, and text. I like the browser skins and apps that browse Lemmy.
As an educational project or simply for fun I say go for it.
Yeah, not sure how to fix this. Smaller classes maybe?
I'll give you 50c on the dollar!

This is the same logic that keeps coal on life support.
At that point you can take the Hullo ferry as a walk-on and save 2+ hours
I remember this one time I was debating going to the island on either a car, a motorcycle, or by walk-on. The car would have been stupidly expensive, walk on would have taken too long to bus, and the motorcycle seemed perfect. I look online and it's like $38 ish dollars? So I decide to take the bike. I get there and it's like $70. I'm like wtf? Apparently they charge for people even if you take a motorcycle on board... Even though you literally cannot take a motorcycle on board without a rider?? I just don't get this logic. I felt ripped off. Not very clear from the website that this is how it works.
This article put me in a bad mood. It also didn't really answer the question, but leaves it up to the reader to interpret the data.
Oh sorry, I didn't realize this was a shitpost 🤦♂️
One of those canisters is equivalent to burning 178mL of gasoline. Or enough to power an average car for 2km. Most people burn through the equivalent of 30+ of these a day going to work and back.
As AI-generated text continues to evolve, distinguishing it from human-authored content has become increasingly difficult. This study examined whether non-expert readers could reliably differentiate between AI-generated poems and those written by well-known human poets. We conducted two experiments ...
The UK’s fertility rate is at an all-time low, and many other countries face similar declines, creating ageing populations. But can ecological benefits of fewer people outweigh social problems created?
It's interesting how different countries are dealing and are effected by the declining worldwide birth rates. The most astounding statistic to me is that wildlife populations have dropped +70% over the past 50 years. Frankly, if humans think that we are in the right to drop wildlife populations by such a staggering amount, a slight drop in human populations only seems like a fair way to balance the scales.
Hacking the T2S+ Out of Fear: Get Lock-In Thermography for Free
A landlord from B.C.’s Lower Mainland who evicted a longtime tenant only to rent out the same unit months later for more money has been ordered to compensate him $16,480.
I am relieved to hear that this tennant got some money back.
There seems to be a difference in views on what housing means to people. To the landlords, it's an exchange, a source of income for losing access to space. Landlords think it's fair to evict a tennant if it means they can charge more for rent. To the tennant, it's literally where they eat, live, and sleep. Their SOL if the landlord kicks them out. The because of this, the demand-curve on a demand-supply graph is steep. This causes the sensitivities were seen in the rental market these past couple years. The supply side is also steep because of NIMBY's.
So what happens? Prices go up and quantities don't change. Current landlords are rewarded, new landlords are hardly created, and tenants are left scrambling as they move from place to place, having their entire life uprooted each time.
And then people wonder why Canada isn't having kids. LOL
Some setup notes for self-hosting a Lemmy instance
Hey; I just got a Lemmy instance up and running. I'd like to share some tips and things that helped me along the way.
I used the Ansible installer found here. Just following the instructions is pretty clear if you've ever set up a server before. I did have a couple of hickups though:
- In the
hostsconfig file, there's a like that says "[email protected]: replace with the destination you use to connect to your server via ssh."" There's a typo down below where there is no[email protected], it actually saysexample.cominstead. Do replace it with your username and domain. - The
customPostgresql.confDOES need to be tuned for your server memory and CPU; the default did not work for me - When it says
Configure a DNS A Record to point at your server's IP address.it means you need an IPv4 address for your server. Unfortunately, this means you can't use the cheapest Vultr tier at $2.5/mo, but you have to use the $3.5/mo instan
