I must admit that I love the #MiniRack project of @geerlingguy : (more) affordable and (especially) portable #rack builds for #network, #homelab and whatever you think of … in 10 inches wide 🤓

The links below give an example of a minirack designed for low power consumption and powered by solar panels.

In short, a whole host of possibilities ! 🖖😜

Here, to change #VPN, I was more than advised Mullvad … but what about #Xeovo ? Have you tested it ? 🤔

I just read the #Proton stand for fascism, they can go f*ck themselves. I host my mail adresses but is there an equivalent #VPN solution ? 😤

AND ESPECIALLY the emptiness of my contacts contributions, apart from a few dozen die-hards (out of 300 or so contacts).

So it's a bit of an angle, I agree, BUT what if Meta were to admit that the level of connection/participation was very low from now on and that, with these latest announcements, they were appealing to the community they knew to be active on its networks : the mascu-incelo-conspi-faschists ?

Like ‘it doesn't matter what you say as long as it generates traffic’ 🤔 2/2

I've got a theory (which is probably flawed) about what's going on with #Meta and its data scrappers. I deleted my account 1 year ago now and had to log in every 6 months or so before.

Each time, what struck me was the number of notifications based on my contacts activities (So-and-so posted a photo, Doe commented, etc.) and not my own (necessarily null) … it was my feed full of generated content and groups far from my concerns … 1/2

With a bit of delay : « Hype, #Sustainability, and the Price of the Bigger-is-Better Paradigm in #AI » by @GaelVaroquaux, @SashaMTL & @Mer__edith

« With the growing attention and investment in recent AI approaches such as #LLM, the narrative that the larger the AI system the more valuable, powerful and interesting it is increasingly seen as common sense. But what is this assumption based on, and how are we measuring value, power, and performance ? »

« Can we please, please, please quit redesigning everything ? » 🤔

« But with the blossoming of life online, barriers to entry for a slice of this kingly power (#design) have fallen dramatically. Suddenly, it wasn’t just objects forming the material of daily life—it was interfaces. Graphic design and UX design have seen explosive growth over the past two decades. Hence, the proliferation of redesigns. »

New year and one of the few resolutions I've made for myself is to stop funding (by choice) TechBros of all kinds … and putting a bit of money into small initiatives, starting with FLOSS.social, which hosts me here : thank you @downey for your hard work ! 🖖
