GenAI complaining 

AI bro seeing their tools produce a bunch of long-winded bullshit for a direct question which would have a simple answer: wow so many thoughts this thing is so smart

specifically because the Anubis project has this excellent badge

@lethalbit the stdlib has so many convenient features! still feels wrong tho

@codl it's still gonna be trained in a data center

@la how much drill could a drill chuck chuck if a drill chuck could chuck drill

LoRa time :>

sadly no one's using MeshCore in the area yet but someone's gotta start it, right?

I wanna grab the Modos dev kit but god eInk panels are still so pricy

@onfy I guess it's possible with some careful water management

@onfy really? rice needs to grow in flooded plains, that sounds like a pain to rotate with other crops

@onfy plants can accumulate toxins found in the environment. There are places where rice has a measurable arsenic content because they basically filter it out of the ground. It's sometimes even used to "clean" soil and make it safe to grow things on again

@The_T @onfy plants breathe in CO2 and exhale O2 (some can even do the opposite if need be)

@misty oh yeah that happened to me too and I'm sure it showed me the exact same ones afterwards. I chalked it up to my work's remote management software doing something funky while I loaded the update

@mcc ultimately I prefer the fix where mastodon doesn't ddos people in the first place but I see your point

@mcc yeah but then having to add a plugin so your WordPress doesn't shut down when someone posts a link on mastodon does feel like a bandaid fix

@mcc you can make non-static websites that don't stop working once a lot of requests come in. ancient php runners can handle it

@mcc I don't think the cost of sending a website and sending just the opengraph tags is significantly different for an accidental DDOS scenario. Any web server worth its salt running on a raspberry pi can handle a few hundred mastodon instances requesting a static page, the issue is people hosting their blog posts on horribly inefficient setups
