3 away, and then 1 away for the last two guesses

I found this one easier since you can count them up one colour at a time. The red ones were a bit more difficult and so I must have assumed a few were connected when they weren’t

Thanks, it’s been added to both spots!

Thank you for highlighting the rules! I think it was needed, and I’ve been meaning to ask about it after those recent posts a few days ago.

Would you be able to put a summarized version of rules in the sidebar once you’ve decided on them, and then link back here for the full version? Sometimes the pinned posts don’t federate and people may gloss over the link.

Markdown formatting wise, this is what I usually do now to have it look nice across different apps / front ends

### Rules:

**a) Posts must be uplifting.**

- This excludes [schadenfreude](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schadenfreude).^[1]^

**b) Posts must not overtly deal with toxic politics.** ^[1]^

**c) Links must not be low-effort.** ^[1]^

- Links must not go to a copy of a copy of a copy.  
(Try finding the original source instead! Links do not have to be textual, so there's no need to find a content farm to post a video.)
- Posts must not be fake news.

Which would look like this:

Rules:

a) Posts must be uplifting.

• This excludes schadenfreude.^[1]

b) Posts must not overtly deal with toxic politics. ^[1]

c) Links must not be low-effort. ^[1]

• Links must not go to a copy of a copy of a copy.
  (Try finding the original source instead! Links do not have to be textual, so there’s no need to find a content farm to post a video.)
• Posts must not be fake news.

Yup

Auto naming functionality is neat in some cases, like the AI chat UI itself

• It’s convenient to have names when toggling between a few recent chats or searching through 10s or 100s of chats later on
• I spawn new chats often and it’s tedious to name them all
• I don’t have a strong preference for what the title is as long as it’s clear what the chat was about

Tab groups don’t hit those points at all

• I’ll have a handful of tab groups
• I don’t make them often
• I have a strong preference for what it’s called, and the AI will have trouble figuring out exactly what I’m using those sites for

Is the problem iPhone specific, and can you access it fine on other devices? Or is it not accessible at all?

This is where I’d start

are there any decent wrist watches that respect your privacy and don’t send all the dam data home?

I’ve heard Garmin is decent, and Pebble is coming back

The article didn’t describe what the “AI” aspect was so I went and found another source, and I’m still not sure. I wonder if by AI they’re referring to a (non-generative AI) algorithm?

This does sound neat regardless

The platform will be a free, open-source tool that allows agencies to simulate, test, and optimize electric bus fleet operations based on their specific requirements.

I am worried about them screwing it up and having the thing explode in orbit

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kessler_syndrome

Ideally the investors figure out what’s wrong before the company starts launching mirrors into orbit

Exactly, even just adding a question mark to the end would have made that clearer

Or better yet, a generic flyer that they drop into the relevant bags with a proper explanation

Sure, but even VS code has been pushing Copilot pretty hard and from the screenshots the setups look fairly similar. It’s a recently released code editor with their own personal AI built in vs. VS Code which has the AI as an extension (or built in, I don’t know what the default install is like these days).

If they’re using it to auto complete lines of code or fill out boilerplate then I don’t see the problem. If they’re typing “make me a password manager” into the prompt window, hitting enter, and accepting it blindly, that’s a problem. Also the code is (at least in this case) open source, so there should be better evidence of bad vibe coded code than the presence of a config file

I think there are better things to criticise Proton for, and unless there is more to the vibe coding than using the Cursor, citing this as a reason will get those other criticisms ignored in the noise.

also ‘barber’

I’d also like to take this opportunity to promote !taneggs@lemmy.ca, for content about animals that fit the tan egg aesthetic (which many buns do fit)

https://www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/1871:_Bun_Alert

After this comic was posted, someone has created a Bun Alert website and app. It does exactly what Randall’s portrayed Bun Alert app describes.

Here it is: https://bunalert.app/

In one of the most popular presentations at 37C3, the three hackers uncovered something monstrous: Newag trains went into hibernation using a sophisticated game of hide-and-seek if they were parked for too long within the geocoordinates of competitors‘ or customers’ workshops or were left in conditions that indicated they underwent an unregistered repair. Only by calling in a Newag technician could such deactivated trains be ‘rescued’. All of this was uncovered without the potentially illegal replacement of train components which would require certifications.

What.

Streisand Effect in 3, 2, 1…

It could work for businesses, we already have apps that scan labels to give info on the business practices and things like glassdoor for insight into the employee life

If you tap the 3 dots on a comment or post, it brings up a menu where you can block the user/content/community/instance

Piefed very recently enabled the API to app developers, but there are a few that are working on support. Voyager and Boost being some big ones.

Could you try blocking them on the web interface on a browser?

Url check:

https://f-droid.org/packages/com.trianguloy.urlchecker/

You set it as the default browser, so when you tap on a link you get the option to modify it before opening it. There are various plugins and you can have it automatically format a particular link if you deal with it often. You can also select it when sharing a link

I feel that we don’t pay enough attention to link trackers. Even if you’re logged out and using apps in the browser, link trackers in messages make it easy for services to map out networks of users. What’s worse, you might dox yourself accidentally when posting a link, which when clicked on, greets the user with a banner saying “First-name Last-name is on Platform, see what else they’re posting”

IMO privacy respecting apps like Signal and Firefox could be dealing with some common trackers by default, with an opt-in setting for other recommended ones (ex. Some people may like affiliate links, others will want to block them)

deleting this one because duplicate

A combination of what the other user said, and also yes the recurring characters started to grow on me. Mouse, Turtle, and Bird in particular :)

Also, to the users who downvoted your comment, I don’t see any reason for the downvotes? ayyy@sh.itjust.works’s comment looks like a genuine good faith question asking why some people enjoy this strip, and valid reasons for why others might not see the appeal. Even then there’s no reason we all need to enjoy the same comic strips
