I am fairly sure this is the actual point of the campaign. The selection bias for a ‘poll’ like this (one that instantly on-boards you to the ai-disabled version of your product if you click answer negative, no less) is so great that I don’t believe the suits/analysts at ddg ever envisioned a different result. Polls and comment sections lure the extreme viewpoints and the ddg crowd already skews privacy-conscious so this was a highly expected outcome.

What the campaign does instead is:

1. Show that you ‘care’ and ‘listen to feedback’ (by a response to the poll somewhere between disabling the ai by default to making the no-ai button a little bit bigger)
2. show that you have the ability to turn off ai on your product in the first place to those who care
3. like I said above, directly onboard people onto their preferred search strategy so that when relatives/friends send this around people get a little taste, and realize this exists

It’s quite clever imo, and there’s no real bad outcome for what I assume is a pretty inexpensive campaign.

oh like, literally hitting?

This is looking really interesting! I think I might wait for a tiny bit more documentation but will keep it in mind as a possibility for some of my smaller projects in the future. Currently sometimes using woodpecker ci and, begrudgingly, a lot of GitHub ci.

Is it already self-hostable or is testing currently restricted to the hosted offering on your forgejo instance?

Good luck with the project!

Hey I’m not sure if I would ever use the information for any actual future shopping or whatever so no pressure, but would love to know what kind of Lego alternatives aficionados would recommend nowadays!

Hey this seems neat but I think you might have more success with the post over on !selfhosted@lemmy.world or !opensource@lemmy.ml as community suggestions that are generally more open to individual project promotions.

I mean, 640K ought to be enough for anyone anyway.

A fantastic resource, thanks for posting this!

Wow I had no clue rdr2 had such an active modding scene!

Towards the end of last year I started playing red dead redemption 1 a little, since it’s just about what my machine manages to handle :-) Got about 10 or so hours in and I liked it okay although some of the gameplay was just a little too arcade-y for me. Like the horses feeling kind of like driving a gta car still, and other characters always going at full speed through the landscape. But the atmosphere was really cool and seemed to be one of the main drawing points for me. Not sure if I’ll ultimately go back for more though.

Do you know if the first one also has similarly active mods or any suggested gameplay improvements?

It’s an interesting concept that I also started exploring last year, though somewhat less extreme.

My deployments run on incus containers/VMs which are spun up by terraform. Those may in turn host things e.g. through docker or just bare-metal.

But instead of going full packer-golden image, my principle orchestration is still done by Ansible which prepares the bare-metal host, gets incus rolling, and then starts the terraform process, before taking control again and operating on the now spun-up individual machines.

Neato.

It’s funny, an announcement like this used to excite and terrify me in roughly equal amounts.

But now that I’m much more reliant on the polars universe instead, and looking closer at the blog post – it kinda seems like they are moving closer to some of the polars idioms anyway, with plpd.col() and string datatypes.

If you have set your mind to Manjaro I don’t want to dissuade you, but if you are not yet strongly convinced of the distro I always like to point out that there were some issues with the distribution in the past (someone collected them here).

If you’re just after an Arch-like distribution I think EndeavourOS is a very friendly distro without adding their own repositories on top of Arch, or perhaps the more gaming focused Garuda Linux. But again - if you’re happy with Manjaro by all means also stay with it.

Can you speak to how Talos 2 is compared to the original? I thought the puzzles were neat but loved the somber atmosphere and some of the thought-provoking terminal messages, they’re what I remember most fondly. Has that been kept similar in the second one?

What is the best way to load the dishwasher?

Lidarr is configured with folder C, which is a mergerfs volume consisting of folder A and B. Folder A is read-only, and any writes on C go into folder B. This way Lidarr can “see” all my existing music, while any automated downloads go into folder B, keeping them separate from my organized files.

That is so dang clever I definitely have to steal the idea.

Nametag […] launched this past week and filled the void left in many of our lives by Monica

I think I’ve been out of the loop here, what happened to Monica?

For issues tracking there’s the venerable git-bug, although development has sadly slowed way down in the last years.

And I am always jealous of the way fossil repositories just have a complete front-end and wiki baked in, would love something like that for git.

No I think the OP is confused. tt-rss forums was a largely horrible community which prided itself on being edgy and toxic. FreshRSS never had anything to do with them, except for also being an rss reader. It is (or at least was? Not sure nowadays) instead loosely connected to the framasoft people, who are cool and doing nice things for the open source community, and not at all toxic.

Fascinating read, I should definitely also make way more use of sqlite for little side projects.
Thanks for the link!
