No, where do you get that from? The only direct association with AI from him that I can think of was, that he did an ad read for an AI company a while back. And then he took the video down and returned the money after he encountered pushback from his community. Other than that he’s been a vocal critic of AI for years. He’s also a friend of Ed Zitron.

Fake news websites have been around for years, yes. What’s different here, is that this is a website, that’s not meant for human consumption. It’s sole purpose is to provide tainted training data for chatbots. So that the names of certain individuals are more strongly associated with positive attributes than with negative ones.

Thalia does sell German language DRM free audiobooks.

The big problem is that there isn’t a store with a good selection in both languages at the same time (other than audible that is). So you’ll have to split your shopping habits between two or more stores, which makes the subscription offerings a lot less attractive.

Happy to help. One further point of clarification: Netbird traditionally was a VPN solution that required client software on the end user device, that’s what you were thinking of presumably. However they recently-ish expanded into offering reverse proxy services as well: https://docs.netbird.io/manage/reverse-proxy

So if you are looking for a cloudflare tunnels alternative and don’t want to go the fully selfhosted route, then Netbird can do that. I can’t speak to it’s reliability though, because I run a selfhosted Pangolin for my setup, and Netbird themselves mention that the feature is currently still in beta.

That’s what pangolin is. Your users don’t need to use anything special. The VPN is used internally to connect your server and the VPS. It’s not actually public facing. For the enduser it’s the same as if you used cloudflare tunnels.

One word of warning if you choose to go with Cloudflare: Using their tunnels for streaming video is technically against their TOS. It’s not really enforced most of the time, but you might run into problems, if you plan on really high usage.

An alternative service is Netbird. Open Source, based in Germany and as far as I know they don’t have this limitation

Yeah, Lemmy can be weird sometimes

But wait, there’s more: Microsoft had an AI bot then DMCA the Android version of Luanti, the very Game used in this paper. https://blog.luanti.org/2026/08/27/luanti-dmca-tracer-ai/

I assume they’ll run the Colbert playbook: YouTube release with on air promotion. QR code, yes. Dead air, no.

Yes, and then they filed a DMCA notice against the game for copyright infringement (or rather Tracer.ai did on Microsoft’s behalf). Literally two weeks after the blog post.

The notice has since been withdrawn, but still…

It’s not. They don’t actually bundle the normal LibreOffice. Instead they ship LOkit, the special embeddable version that’s also the basis of Collabora Office. So: different download

There are third party clients for a lot of streaming services as kodi add-ons. Here for example is the add-on for P+: https://www.matthuisman.nz/2021/06/paramount-plus-kodi-add-on.html

Please keep in mind that I haven’t used these for years and can make no comment on whether they still work. There are also some inherent limitations. Quality will be caped at 720p for example because widewine Linux bullshit

The reason is simple: we want to get you security updates faster, and give you more control over your own machine.

Security work has sped up across the entire Linux world; vulnerabilities are found faster than ever, in packages and in the kernel itself. A Fedora base lets patches reach you more quickly, and on your own terms.

And their installation is almost always illegal. But they stay up as long as nobody complains. “Normal” security cameras tend to be big and you can see where they point at. Doorbell cameras are small and easy to miss, so they fly under the radar

It is basically already illegal everywhere in Germany. German law has these things called “the right to your own image” and “the right to your own voice”. Basically if I want to film or photograph you, I have to ask for permission first, even and especially if you’re out in public. There are exceptions for if the person is incidental to the image (I photograph a building and you just happen to walk into the shot) but these don’t really apply when riding the bus. So using the glasses is already illegal. This is about wearing them.

Side note, this is also why Germany doesn’t have as many private security cameras. Because you need to place them in such a way that you don’t film the sidewalk, which is complicated. And it’s also why German media doesn’t use secret phone recordings. It’s always a “recollection from memory” re-enacted by a voice actor.

If you follow a tutorial: Switch it up to make it yours. Make small changes. For example: If the tutorial is for a shoot 'em up where the camera scrolls top to bottom, make your game scroll right to left. Stuff like that forces you to think differently about the work, which should help you understand and retain the information better.

There are also interactive tutorials like this one from GDQuest for Godot: https://school.gdquest.com/courses/learn_2d_gamedev_godot_4/learn_gdscript/learn_gdscript_app

That’s even worse. Hey media: Stop sanewashing the takes of crazy people

It’s not a problem if you’re into

• (leftist) US politics
• Linux and other IT topics
• Star Trek
• German Memes

As soon as you try to talk anybody else, you might find you struggle to have a community large enough to sustain a conversation

You could add UV lights to it to blind the camera. But you are right these don’t have that. This is just a (I think very funny) marketing stunt.

and Qobuz prohibits AI songs completely.

where are you getting this from? dislikes where? because youtube doesn’t show dislikes. yes, there are extensions that restore that function. but those extensions are extremely imprecise, because they project the numbers based on the like to dislike ratio of their users. But even if I grant you that there where a lot of dislikes, why would you disable dislikes, if they where never displayed in the first place?

All of which brings me to believe that you are lying.

To be fair, the system in question does the math for you. It is still contra to European tipping culture though.
