Welcome! As a new mod of a community that recently went through similar growing pains (and rules updates), I can appreciate the challenges ahead of you and @ayyy@sh.itjust.works. You sound like you’ve got a good head on your shoulders, and that will do a lot for you and this community. There is nothing more humbling than being given a responsibility like this (at least, that’s how I feel: YMMV).

It is my understanding that mods from different instances than the community do not (always?) see the mod reports for the community (or get notified?). It might be worth looking into more just to be sure.

Also, I’d love to learn more about your local AI setup. I’ve been interested in doing something like that myself, but I am not sure where to start. 😊

Creative’s Sound Blaster Katana V2X

That’s the company and model speaker.

Season 5.

I’m getting Sigma Solarium vibes from this.

You know you’re supposed to take a leek in the bathroom?

Me too, AI. Me too.

Ok I vaguely remember this scene, but not what movie it came from.

It’s 2026, just dig out this fossil and fix it already.

That’s the joke. 😅

Yes. Because cookies are used for tracking and can be set without the aid of Javascript.

For anyone interested, cookies pre-date Javascript and are baked in the HTTP protocol by way of a Set-Cookie header that the browser responds to by storing whatever information accompanies the Set-Cookie header; usually a unique id that can then be used to track what pages on a domain you visit.

Huh. I guess Microsoft and I have that in common.

🥁

Slightly pedantic, but according to core-utils GitHub, false.c has not been changed in 21 years. But true.c, which is what false.c is based on, has been changed as recent as 4 months ago.

~I couldn’t resist looking it up, and found the results mildly interesting.~

Sometimes the humorous term “nine fives” (55.5555555%) is used to contrast with “five nines” (99.999%),[18][19][20] though this is not an actual goal….

Maybe Microsoft misunderstood the assignment, and thought this was a goal. At their current rate, it’s certainly more achievable than the more traditional “five nines”.

As an aside, I love how the following is preferences as “casual”, and then the author starts arguing semantics:

Similarly, percentages ending in a 5 have conventional names, traditionally the number of nines, then “five”, so 99.95% is “three nines five”, abbreviated 3N5.[13][14] This is casually referred to as “three and a half nines”,[15] but this is incorrect….

Be wary that high bitrate 4K media may cause issues with playback buffering.

This could be Jellyfin, AppleTV, or it could be network/storage related (due to needing high speed data transfer).

I second using the Infuse app for playback. It works wonderfully!

You washed out. It’s all the buzz now that you posted it. Be careful though, this could get hairy.

Ooh! Ooh! I know this one.

It’s a… it’s a… um, late for dinner? 🫣

The biggest problem you’re going to run into is impedance. This can be walls, studs, concrete, etc.

Is there any way you can run a cable between the two buildings? You can then hook up your repeater and it would be guaranteed to work; with more effort.

To be fair, tasks would be much, much worse without skin.

I have. And I do. And unfortunately for me, it’s not. But at least I’m not suffocating in my sleep. 🤷‍♂️

Well, speaking for myself, it most certainly helps with my anxiety and depression. So they can stuff it for all I care.

I forget to breathe all the time. Especially when exercising and when sleeping. 🤷‍♂️
