Maybe it's just anything Greek. I remember reading a comment chain right here on Lemmy like 6 months ago, something about a thing/machine/software named Prometheus. One commenter wondered why they'd name themselves after an Alien movie.

    I never really needed any justification, but ever since AI companies just take stuff illegally, and that openly, it has become my justification to just pirate the shit out of everything.

    (Excluding indie games of developers I like).

    I diagnosed myself

    Congrats, glad your life is hopefully changing for the better because of this.

    I hate taking the wind out of your sails but this is in the area of anecdotal evidence. You are a single person saying this for your specific case. I am sure we will get another few people confirming the same here.

    But what about how many people tried this and got nothing useful out? Or even a misdiagnose? Anyone enthusiastic about this possibility of AI diagnosing people wouldn't really mention this. People like to mention the successes but it needs to be weighed against the failures too, and I don't think there is a good record of that.

    If there is, its probably a medical study and I'd venture a guess that AI did not perform as well as a trained doctor.

    Sure but, if that really is the case the dev could just go ahead and... say... that? It could have been a transparent declaration or they could have made this at least "opt out". But instead it was done in the back, not documented or justified in any way.

    I have started moving away from gmail and have started exporting my older e-mails via the takeout option. This generates .mbox files. I don't really use any e-mail clients on my computer and do most of my e-mailing on my phone, so I don't have a way of viewing/searching those files.

    Therefore I was wondering if there is any selfhosted option for some kind of e-mail archive/viewer with decent search function that anyone can recommend? Specifically something capable of handling those .mbox files. I found a few projects that sounded promising, but they seemed either dead, weren't setup for selfhosting or could only connect directly to the mailboxes. So I thought I'd ask here if anyone has experience with this, maybe some recommendations?

    Also open to alternative approaches what to do with those files. I just would like to delete these mails from gmail entirely, but that requires I can search them with as much ease as I can on gmail with a local option.

    Thanks!

     

    In addition to the bug mentioned here with sorting posts in multicommunities https://lemmy.world/post/48917983

    I just found another bug with multicommunities, I have one with just 2 or 3 communities making up the multicomunity, and if I browse it I see maybe 10-12 posts, then Summit tells me there is nothing more to show. If I however click on the individual communities I see they got much more content than that.

     

    Will be travelling to Japan later this year and found out about these workshops in Tokyo where you get make "your own" modded Gameboy. Guessing modded refers to being able to choose custom shells and buttons, not so much to anything else there might be (I am not very knowledgeable about Gameboy mod scene).

    Looks super cool, but is very pricey. Around 55.000 Yen for different courses, so I am a bit on the fence for booking it or not.

    Anybody here have any experience with these? Would those be "normal" Gameboys you need cartridges for?

    Edit: found a video of one, just in case someone is interested seeing how it goes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wjHSz8goaZ8

     

    I have been using the app filters option to remove some posts I don't care about that are recurring, which is a nice feature.

    There are however two problems with it that are sort of related, I don't seem to get it to work filtering combinations of words? E.g. I can filter for "hello" and "world" but when I make a filter for "hello world" it doesn't block anything. Is there a certain way you need to define those or does it just not work?

    And since I can only do single word filters I have now the issue that I filter posts I do not mind actually. E.g. by trying to filter "hello world" with just "hello" I am also filtering "hello you". But whenever a post got filtered it does not tell you which filter was applied, it just says "this post is filtered because of a custom filter", or something like that.

    Could that message maybe write out the word it filtered so one can see which filter got applied? Since I had wrong posts filtered I am now often checking, which post is behind the filter, but thats kind of removing the purpose of the filter.

    From the Emudeck discord:

    @everyone Hey everyone, apologies for the ping but since this is deemed as critical to the security of people's devices here, I will have to. Cemu (The Wii U emulator) was recently compromised by a malicious attacker using a known developers account, this compromise took place from May 6th to May 12th, and introduces malware that is known to steal passwords, SSH keys, GitHub tokens, and likely more they are not fully aware of at this moment. We recommend anybody who is on Linux or SteamOS to go into the EmuDeck app, Manage Emulators tab, Cemu, and click Reinstall/Update, and make sure the hash of the AppImage (Located in Home/Applications, right click Cemu AppImage, go into Properties, Checksums, and Calculate the SHA256 hash) matches the non-compromised version provided by the Cemu developers, if you have used Cemu from the dates I have mentioned, and the SHA256 hash does not match what is listed, assume your system may be compromised if it was ran. If you are on Windows, MacOS, or used the Flatpak version, you are not affected by this malware. More information regarding this attack can be found here. https://rentry.org/cemu-security-psa

    The specifically affected packages were:

    Cemu-2.6-x86_64.AppImage

    cemu-2.6-ubuntu-22.04-x64.zip
