Spotify Is Forcing Users to Undergo Face Scanning to Access Explicit Content in c/technology@beehaw.org

The headline is misleading. It only applies if you want to watch videos tagged 18+.

Wikipedia may have to impose quota on number of UK users to comply with Online Safety Act in c/technology@lemmy.world
[–] TurboLag@lemmings.world 5 points 1 week ago

Sorry, I didn't realise it was paywalled. It didn't prompt me to pay when I opened it. It's not a source I usually use, but I couldn't find an alternative unless from much less reputable sites.

I think the law would only apply above a certain number of monthly users, so small platforms are safe from it for now.

Is there any information about what model it uses and what the context window size is? I asked it and it avoided the answer (but asking it is not a reliable way to determine this anyway).

EDIT: Found it here:

Lumo is powered by open-source large language models (LLMs) which have been optimized by Proton to give you the best answer based on the model most capable of dealing with your request. The models we’re using currently are Nemo, OpenHands 32B, OLMO 2 32B, and Mistral Small 3. These run exclusively on servers Proton controls so your data is never stored on a third-party platform

I hadn't heard of this before, so I tried a few public instances listed on their GitHub repo. They're all throwing a json error. Do you have a link that works for you?

Grilled fish for dinner in c/foodporn@lemmy.world

I don't have the space and equipment to grill anything myself, but I've never seen fish cut in half before grilling like this. Is this common practice?

Plex Is Reversing an Unpopular Part of Its App Redesign in c/plex@lemmy.ca
[–] TurboLag@lemmings.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

No. I'm not aware of a good way to sync music to the built-in iOS player; you have to go through iTunes.

You don't need Plex for that. A simple local music player will do just fine if you always want your whole library stored locally.

12ft.io down? in c/technology@lemmy.world
[–] TurboLag@lemmings.world 7 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Archive.is works by saving snapshots of pages, unlike 12ft, which just stripped the paywall on the fly. With very new pages, a snaptshot might not be saved yet. In that case, go to the home page and use the box to ask to make a new snapshot now. It will take a minute and then you should see it.

How is OnePlus 13/13R compared to Samsung/iPhone? (lemmings.world)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmings.world/post/30237202

Hi there!

I'm looking for people's experiences using a OnePlus 13 or 13R. I'm particularly interested in how it compares to recent Samsung devices, because I think Samsung One UI currently offers the best UX on Android. To a lesser degree, I'm also interested in how it compares to an iPhone.

I'm not interested in games performance. I care about reliability first and foremost, then about battery life. Camera performance and smoothness come later.

If you've used a OnePlus 13/13R and a recent Samsung or iPhone, please leave me your comments. I'm interested to know your experience, no matter which of these phones you prefer at the end of the day.

Thanks a lot!

What apps have you been using this year? Have you found new apps to fill a gap in your previous open-source use?

What is something that you wish had a good open-source alternative but does not at this time?

Those of you with devices older than S23, how is One UI 7 treating you? (lemmings.world)
 

Can anyone share experience about power usage, performance, and functionality on older devices?

Please bring back instance names in the subscription list (lemmings.world)
 

After the latest update, instance names have disappeared from the subscription section on the navigation drawer. There doesn't seem to a be setting to bring those back. Without them, it's hard to distinguish between communities with similar names on different instances.

[Bug?] Error Loading Images (lemmings.world)
 

I often find image posts where clicking on the thumbnail doesn't load the picture and shows a generic error message. If I copy the image link, I can open it ok in the browser. I haven't been able to tie this to specific instances or communities, so I don't know what might be causing it.

Has anyone else seen this issue?

How has your Lemmy experience changed over the past few months? (lemmings.world)
 

In another thread, I read a user's comment about how the lemmy experience has got progressively worse over the past few months, with a lot more trash content making it to their front page.

Is this your experience? How was lemmy when you joined and how do you think it's changed?

I didn't believe some of the stories about the current state of Reddit. I was wrong. (old.reddit.com)
 

Yes, I've read many posts the current state of reddit. But today, somehow I thought it can't be that bad if I just go looking for some funny videos.

Boy, was I wrong. This post was at the top of my feed, and briefly scrolling through the comments got me out of there without looking at anything else ☠️

Oh, well, I tried...

Photon Frontend for Lemmings.world? (lemmings.world)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by TurboLag@lemmings.world to c/lemmings_world_instance@lemmings.world

The Photon frontend has recently reached feature parity with the official Lemmy frontend. It has a really nice UI and I like using it alongside Alexandrite.

@rikudou@lemmings.world would you consider hosting a copy for Lemmings.world, similar to how Alexandrite is available at a.lemmings.world?

Thanks in advance!
