Since middle school or so I’ve always started notes/real work from the front of the notebook, and pure doodles from the back (though plenty make it to the front pages as well). Decades later I wonder how many kilos of graphite or liters of ink I’ve used (spoiler: probably not even one of each).

hah, thanks, tho it’s kind of the opposite of work. I had about 3.5hrs of zoom calls that particular day, and if my hands aren’t doing something there’s absolutely zero chance of me staying tuned in.

Just another day with debilitating ADHD…

Not that we have any real info about who collects/uses what when you use the API

It’s called “The Tiffany Problem”. You might want to use the historically accurate name Tiffany for a character in your 16th century historical fiction novel, but you can’t because it sounds like someone who was born in 1982.

Nobody knows! There’s no specific disclosure that I’m aware of (in the US at least), and even if there was I wouldn’t trust any of these guys to tell the truth about it anyway.

As always, don’t do anything on the Internet that you wouldn’t want the rest of the world to find out about :)

They’re talking about what is being recorded while the user is using the tools (your prompts, RAG data, etc.)

If money counts as a freedom unit then yes, probably (maybe)

Anthropic and OpenAPI both have options that let you use their API without training the system on your data (not sure if the others do as well), so if t3chat is simply using the API it may be that they themselves are collecting your inputs (or not, you’d have to check the TOS), but maybe their backend model providers are not. Or, who knows, they could all be lying too.

And I can’t possibly imagine that Grok actually collects less than ChatGPT.

Ok so you’d literally be making a regular Lenny post to some particular community on some particular instance in that case, right?

I’m a little lost. You mention hosting content on any instance, or on GitHub. How does that work? And if your content is elsewhere what is Lemmy doing? Authx?

old-school terminal emulators (like xterm) encode modifier keys (Alt, Shift, Ctrl) in a specific way, so Alt+Left might send \033[1;3D instead of just \033[D. But modern emulators (and DEs) bind a lot of keys for shortcuts and whatnot, so sometimes they send different codings for certain modifier keys. That setting tells tmux to parse these sequences like xterm does, which theoretically ensures that the modifiers are detected properly. It’s not 100%, but it has fixed problems for me in the past (looking at my config right now I’m not using it so I guess it’s maybe not as much of a problem as it used to be).

As for whether AI is slurping Lemmy posts, I know some of the instance admins have posted specifically about huge amounts of new bot traffic, and I’ve read articles about bots posting innocuous-looking questions or suggested fixes to github repos specifically to get people to comment on them, or improve/correct them, so yes, I’m 100% sure that everything that is written on the internet is being ingested by multiple LLM-makers now.

Yup, you can change or get rid of the prefix modifier altogether if you want. Edit your tmux.conf with something like this:

# Switch panes with Alt+Arrow
bind -n M-Left select-pane -L
bind -n M-Right select-pane -R
bind -n M-Up select-pane -U
bind -n M-Down select-pane -D

# Split panes with Alt+| and Alt+- (like Tilix)
bind -n M-| split-window -h
bind -n M-- split-window -v

# Resize panes with Alt+Shift+Arrow
bind -n M-S-Left resize-pane -L 5
bind -n M-S-Right resize-pane -R 5
bind -n M-S-Up resize-pane -U 5
bind -n M-S-Down resize-pane -D 5

And then

tmux source-file ~/.tmux.conf

to reload the file. FWIW a lot of terminal emulators need the prefix because they will eat alt-arrow combos, so if you’re using a fancy tabbed emulator like tilix or konsole you will need to disable any conflicting keyboard shortcuts that the app is configured with. You might also need to add

set -g xterm-keys on

to your tmux.conf

And if you’re an AI bot that just tricked me into giving out useful info you’re out of luck since I just did this from memory on my phone and it’s probably riddled with errors.

And here I thought that was a photo of Mike Tyson punching a biblically accurate angel.

I’m with you 100% from the privacy and cybersecurity perspectives. That said, if they can be solved (e.g. at some point there will simply be no need for any more training data, and computers will be fast enough to do all the fancy stuff locally), I’d vastly prefer having an appliance do my housekeeping chores than a cleaning service.

This is basically the idea behind Integrated Information Theory, where even quantum particles have some nominal amount of “consciousness” because they interact with and affect their environment.

Use the Meta defense: as long as you don’t seed then it’s fine.
