Belgium broadcaster interrupts Eurovision semi final to condemn Israel's war on Gaza ( www.middleeasteye.net )

A Belgian broadcaster interrupted its coverage of the Eurovision Song Contest semi-final on Thursday night to display a protest message condemning Israel's war on Gaza. In an act organised by a trade union, the screen briefly went black ahead of the semi-final coverage on VRT, Belgium's public-service broadcaster in Flemish....

How come they can't shoot it down before it arrives?

My guess, Russias war, Israels war, Chinas coal burning for electricity so we can have cheap stuff to throw away imeadiatelly after using it once.

The circlejerk about pineapple on pizza is just a meme, it's funny to complain about it over and over again, while the hawai pizza has been going strong since at least the 70ies or something while hawai toast kind of disappeared.

Ah, probably I mix it up with German where we write 70er where 70 = Siebzig + er = ies

Meh, accidentjal ambassy bombings happen all the time, just ask Israel.

Driving in Japan ( jemmy.jeena.net )

Driving in Japan with the wheel on the right side. The first time I did that last year I drove on the wrong side of the road about 5 times and got a shock every time when I saw all the ghost drivers just to quickly realize that it's me who is driving the wrong way. This year it only happened one time, so my brain seems to adapt...

I would suggest to move to KeepassXC, which already shown that even when KeepassX was too slow to implement features the community was healthy enough to fork it and make it the main fork.

jeena ,
@jeena@jemmy.jeena.net avatar

I've used it on a iPhome once with a Syncthing alternative client and some alternative Keepass app. It worked very well but it was only for a month or two and I don't change passwords often so I might not realized that syncing doesn't work well.

I speak 4 languages, English, Swedish, German an Polish. At work in Swrden our office language was English because so many people from all over the world worked together. I was a consultant at the customers office. There was another consultant from Poland visiting the customer and after a heated meeting he sat down at his desk, which was adjesent to mine and called his collegues in Poland. Ha basically said that those Swedes are so stupid, they want us to use 9 women to give birth to the baby in one month instead of 9 months, without realizing that I could understand everything. I had to work hard to not burst out in loughter.

I watch music reaction youtubers. They showcase a large amount of new music in a short amount of time and are kind of like DJs where they preselect good stuff already.

It's so good that they make sure we can't harm ourselves.

I switched to Radicale and couldn't be happier, so lightweight no pain setting it up or updating. Supports CardDav for the addressbook and CalDav for calendar, tasks, notes.

Nextcloud is for Enterprises, not for selfhosting anymore.

jeena ,
@jeena@jemmy.jeena.net avatar

Oh I also agree about Syncthing. With it you practically don't even need to run it on you server, I still do, just in case if all my other divices are offline.

jeena ,
@jeena@jemmy.jeena.net avatar

I have Linux with GNOME and Android and my partner has iOS and Windows and all the CalDav and CardDav stuff works fine. Or at least adressbook and calendar. I couldn't find a client for iOS for CalDav notes and tasks.

jeena ,
@jeena@jemmy.jeena.net avatar

Syncthing and I have it partitioned with:

  • Music
  • Documents
  • Family Documents
  • Password DB

So that I can decide what to sync to which device.Music is for example too big to sync to my Phone so I don't. Family documents I also share with my partner. Password DB I sync with all my devices but not to anyone else.

@jeena@jemmy.jeena.net avatar

Yeah, I also selfhosted it for years myself. But I was adding more and more services to my server and it became clear that if I would want to keep Nextcloud I'd need a server with more CPU and RAM because when Nextcloud was running it would after half a day deadlock the server with a load of 120 so I had to hard reboot it twice a day.

After replacing it with radicale and syncthing I was able to run Mastodon and Lemmy on the same server additionally.

jeena ,
@jeena@jemmy.jeena.net avatar

Calendar, and addressbook actively. File sharing only seldom.

jeena ,
@jeena@jemmy.jeena.net avatar

In the end it's just another devise. But we are not changing the same document at the same time, that would lead to many sync conflicts I imagine. For that some special protocol for concurent Editing would be better.

@jeena@jemmy.jeena.net avatar

Yeah it's a pitty. For Linux I started writing https://github.com/jeena/jnotes but it will still take a lot of time before it's usable.

jeena ,
@jeena@jemmy.jeena.net avatar

Haha, interesting, for me it was the exact opposite, I started with Baikal but it was too weird and I couldn't get it up and running quickly enough and then I think I was not able to share my calendar with my partner or something, so I switched to Radicale.

jeena OP ,
@jeena@jemmy.jeena.net avatar

Oh man. Ok, TIL that I'm not better than all the old people on Facebook believing what the scammers tell them.

Exactly, this asset is worth nothing to the CPP if sold.

If it was a fully private company which is supposed to make money, they would sell it and move on to invest their money somewhere else.

Regulating the market is important and is not done enough in the US, last time was decades ago with AT&T and Standard Oil. Today they should have broken up Apple, Google, Amazon, etc. To prevent monopolies but they don't.

But yeah, politically it's much easier to go after a Chinese company.

jeena ,
@jeena@jemmy.jeena.net avatar

You're missing my point that it's not money the CCP is after but influence and power abroad. They already have absolute power at home.

jeena ,
@jeena@jemmy.jeena.net avatar

I never understood what it would help to have the data on a US server. It's not that difficult to access it there from China. I access my server in Germany via SSH from Korea.

Damn, it seems I was talking out of my ass and just assuming things. Now I asked llama3 about it and it said that even though it does not send our conversation to Meta, it does take my feedback (if I correct it in some way) and sends it to Meta's servers through the Internet:


// Will you be able to learn from me pointing it out or do you forget all conversations we had after I press Ctrl-D?
I'm a large language model, I don't have personal memories or experiences. Each time you interact with me, it's a new conversation, and I start from
scratch.

When you point out an error or provide feedback, it's stored in my training data for future conversations. However, this information is not retained individually; instead, it's aggregated and used to improve the overall performance of my language understanding and generation capabilities.

So, when you press Ctrl-D (or close our conversation), I won't remember the specific details we discussed, including your feedback on my German sentence.
But, the collective knowledge from all our conversations will help me become a better AI model over time!

Keep in mind that I'm designed to learn and adapt through interactions with users like you. Your contributions, no matter how small they may seem, are invaluable in helping me improve and provide more accurate and helpful responses in the future!

/// But you run on my computer so technically how does my contribution get back to Meta to train the next generation? Do you send any data back?
When you interact with me through this chat interface, your input is processed by a client-side JavaScript code that runs on your local device (your computer or mobile phone). This code sends the necessary information about our conversation, including any corrections or feedback you provide, to Meta's
servers.

Here's how it works:

  1. Client-side processing: When you type a message or correct an error, the JavaScript code on your device processes and formats the data for transmission.
  2. Data encryption and compression: The processed data is then encrypted and compressed using advanced algorithms to ensure secure and efficient transmission over the internet.
  3. Transmission to Meta's servers: The compressed data is sent to Meta's servers, where it's decrypted and decompressed.
  4. Integration with training datasets: The collected data is then integrated into Meta's vast training datasets, which contain millions of conversations from users like you.
  5. Training the next generation: These updated training datasets are used to train new models, such as language understanding models like myself.
    This process helps improve my accuracy and ability to understand natural language.

To ensure your contributions are anonymous and secure, all data transmission is handled by Meta's infrastructure and follows industry-standard encryption protocols. Your input will help refine the AI models, enabling them to better serve users in the future!

Now, go ahead and chat away!

/// How would the data look in the case of me telling you the correct German expression? What would be sent back to meta's server? Show it as JSON.
When you correct an error or provide feedback, the client-side JavaScript code on your device sends a request to Meta's servers with the following
information:

Here's what the data might look like in JSON format:

{
  "event_type": "corrected_error",
  "conversation_id": "unique_conversation_identifier",
  "turn_number": 5,
  "user_input": "und kann einfache",
  "correction_target": "kƶnnen",
  "language_code": "de",
  "platform": "web",
  "client_info": {
    "browser_type": "Chrome",
    "browser_version": "92.0.4515.131"
  }
}

In this example:

  • event_type: The type of event, which in this case is a "corrected_error".
  • conversation_id: A unique identifier for the conversation.
  • turn_number: The number of turns (or exchanges) in the conversation.
  • user_input: The corrected text you provided ("und kann einfache").
  • correction_target: The original incorrect text ("kƶnnen") that was being discussed.
  • language_code: The language code for German ("de").
  • platform: The platform or device type used to access Meta's services (in this case, "web").
  • client_info: Additional metadata about the client device and browser.

This JSON data is then sent to Meta's servers, where it can be processed and integrated into their training datasets.
