This is pretty much my life at work. “Here’s how AI can do something with 95% accuracy, beating out the alternate rule based method that only delivers a 100% accuracy rate”.

To be clear and so people don’t get the wrong idea, Graham Linehan is the creator of The IT Crowd, he’s not in this meme.

Have you tried owning the place you work?

I thought the US had some law about unsubscribing within two clicks r something?

I guess it depends on the specifics of what you are worried about. I have a catchall set up for a domain I own, and so I can make up an email on the spot. I’ve never had trouble getting those accepted.

But for random internet stuff I tend to use either Firefix Relay or Simple Login. I use these most of the time and don’t normally have issues, but if I do then I use my own domain.

I think these relay email services (which are not temp/disposable emails btw) let you set up with your own domain too.

Well I am a step closer to the answer. Here a similar photo taken on the Artemis II mission with the same identifying features: https://images.nasa.gov/details/art002e009212

In this fully illuminated view of the Moon, the near side (the hemisphere we see from Earth), is visible on the right. It is identifiable by the dark splotches that cover its surface. These are ancient lava flows from a time early in the Moon’s history when it was volcanically active. The large crater west of the lava flows is Orientale basin, a nearly 600-mile-wide crater that straddles the Moon’s near and far sides. Orientale’s left half is not visible from Earth, but in this image we have a full view of the crater. Everything to the left of the crater is the far side, the hemisphere we don’t get to see from Earth because the Moon rotates on its axis at the same rate that it orbits round us.

Long story short, like 3/4 of what is in this photo is the near side of the moon.

As a side note, the coloured image on the left of the OP appears to be this image that reddit detectives have decided was edited by OP. No one has found that coloured version on any NASA release.

I’m half confused. Light source - the sun, just take it when the moon is in it’s new moon phase (side facing earth is dark, side facing sun is light).

But the moon is tidally locked to earth, we always see the same side, so what is taking the photo?

Artemis II visited while the far side was dark, so I guess this is an old tweet otherwise why would NASA be releasing it now?

Happy to be told I’m dumb if I got something wrong…

Oh so when you said:

subscribed community | posts (today|week)

You weren’t asking for a way to see posts for a particular subscribed community, you wanted a list of communities with the number of new posts in each?

I’m not aware of a way to do that, no. But I wonder if the communities list page might help you find them? If you go to the communities page and sort by Scaled, like this:

https://discuss.online/communities?listingType=Local&sort=Scaled&page=1

Then small communities with recent activity should show at the top?

I’m not quite following.

If you go to the community and sort by new you’ll see new posts? That seems to be what you’re asking.

Also see the “scaled” option for your subscribed feed. This makes low activity communities show up higher in the list to try to stop them being drowned out by high-activity communities.

I’m from a colony and pudding would normally be dessert unless further specified. I’m curious what specifically it was, was it anything listed in the top-ish section here?

Savoury puddings include Yorkshire pudding, black pudding, suet pudding and steak and kidney pudding. Sweet puddings include bread pudding, sticky toffee pudding, tapioca pudding, and rice pudding. Unless qualified, however, pudding usually means dessert and in the United Kingdom, pudding is used as a synonym for dessert.

There is already plenty of empirical evidence to support the claims of the harms of social media, but in spite of this, change is glacial.

I think at one point you could make the same argument about medicines. The problem is that politicians are appointed with a popularity contest.

I don’t remember all the arguments of the article, but when you think about it, the harms of social media are medical. It’s possible that we could expand the scope of the current medicine approval boards to include algorithms, with their job not being to understand the algorithm but to understand the research on mental health.

I don’t have all the answers, but I do think it’s an idea worth exploring.

I was meeting with my team the other day, and the conversation turned to our mortgages. My boss: ah yes, the reason we are all here.

In my view social media is probably not the problem, but the algorithms they use that are designed to be addictive and manipulative.

I saw an article once arguing that the algorithms should be regulated in a similar way to medicine. Give some base ingredients they can use freely (e.g. sort by newest first), then require any others to run studies to prove they are not harmful.

There would be an expert board that approves or declines the new algorithm in the same way medicines are approved today (the important bit being that they are experts, not politicians making the decision).

Reminds me of how any app in Android can see all the other installed apps. Great for fingerprinting.

Lemmy is a different kind of platform. Twitter wasn’t for me, but I never clicked with Mastodon either. Some people like the microblog format but I just never got it, or maybe I never worked out how to use it probably.

Accessing every password would require a breach of the browser or the extension, right? Because the extension will only fill passwordds with a matching URL, so with the browser must be compromised to provide the wrong URL, or the extension compromised to accept a wrong URL? I am not sure how separating the extension and the manager helps with this?

Interestingly, auto-filling can also be more secure than just typing in your credentials, because the extensions will only fill if the site URL matches, where as people can be tricked into thinking they are on a different site.

Does this extend to also not using browser extensions for password managers?

It does, yeah. If you aren’t averse to cloudflare then it’s a great option.

From memory I think it’s limited to http/https traffic, but that’s normally not an issue, just have all your services behind a reverse proxy.

One time I was in a class where we had this beginner level web dev assignment, and we were writing HTML and CSS. We had to submit the assignment as a zip file.

When you open the HTML from the zip file in Windows without unzipping it, it can’t access other files in the zip file, namely the CSS.

The entire class failed the assignment because the teacher didn’t unzip the files first, and refused to entertain the idea they might have screwed up.
