“Noooo brooooo the ai did the bad thing, broooooo now we can’t even charge anyone with war crimes bro, it was the ai who did it that’s so unfortunate broseph, nobody is to blame now, that shit just happened with AI bro, brooooooo”
Like obviously they didn’t ask grok “can we bomb this facility” this is absolutely just running media interference

I need to know how your brain works. Like what neural connections are firing that lead to commenting this? Do you think Trump will personally read this and be offended? Are you trying to spread anti-Trump propaganda to shift indifferent people away from their indifference? Do you just think it’s really funny to say that sentence? Do you not think about it at all and it’s as natural as blinking? I genuinely cannot wrap my head around what it’s like to be an “I would vote for Obama a third time if I could” liberal. Please this is a real question I need to know why people like you talk like this I’ve been fascinated for years and this type of comment behavior hasn’t faded away.

on What do you do for email? in c/privacy@lemmy.ml · 15 Sep 2026
I recently got Stalwart running with Bulwark as the front end to actually send emails. I have Stalwart behind Caddy for https and Stalwart only exposes http because I don’t want to mess with pop and imap. Instead I have it using JMAP, which Bulwark is designed for, because it’s simpler and more secure. Receiving emails works from some basic testing against my personal Gmail account. Sending email was a bit more complicated, but I ended up using SMTP2GO for outgoing mail and it worked in aforementioned testing. Their free tier is more than enough for personal email and I can switch to a different smtp relay in the future if I choose to.

We all are until we aren’t. Good documentation goes a long way and gost has extensive documentation and examples for every option it has. It helped a lot in figuring out how to use the tool and I was very excited when I finally got it working!

Not sure if this is meant to be sarcastic, but I’m not particularly smart on this matter, just persistent in trying to get things to work. I used to use rathole but came around to GOST as a replacement for several reasons. I don’t think Pangolin was around yet when I made the switch.

I rent a free tier oracle vm that does nothing more than tunnel traffic using GOST. Ports 80/443/25 and a control port that my homelab can connect to to establish the tunnel. No ports open at my house, public IP is the cloud VM, and the raw encrypted tcp traffic is tunneled through whatever NAT shenanigans my ISP might have and straight into Caddy within a docker (podman) network. I’m pretty happy with it and it works well!
It’s a single binary and can parse a config file or command line parameters. If I ever switch public VM providers, it’s a single binary download and a systemd service file. Switch my DNS records to the new VM and I’m completely done. And since my homelab establishes the connection to the VM’s port, I don’t have to reconfigure anything if I move buildings, switch providers, get stuck behind NAT, or can’t open ports.

on A touch of AI is all it takes to trigger backlash, as a promising new indie falls afoul of slop skeptics in c/technology@lemmy.world · 26 Aug 2026
And then after the backlash, the project director came out thinking the only issue was that the AI didn’t look good enough. Yeah bro that was the issue glad you’re in charge here to figure it all out.
“If someone asked me what I think about using AI, the honest answer is that I would have to think about it for a long time,” the director wrote. “The reason I chose AI was that I believed it could reach a level of expression our existing resources could not, and that it would let us focus more on the game itself, outside of story and cinematics.”
He continued: “That was a hasty judgment on my part. Unless AI takes one more leap and reaches a point where no one can tell the difference, what I believed was still closer to an ideal than a reality. I expected some of you would be disappointed by our use of AI. I did not expect it to become this big.”
…
“The truth is, we spent a long time trying to tell this game’s story with cutscenes made entirely by our own hands,” the statement goes on. “The results were devastating every time. We came to believe we could not properly deliver this game’s complex, difficult narrative that way, and that is why we turned to AI. But if that choice hurt your experience, the fault is not in the tool. It is in our own shortcomings.”
I don’t get it how do artists get captured by the Shortcut Machine like this? Genuinely what worm is entering these people’s brains where suddenly they don’t know or care what art is and just want to ask grok to “make it look cool with dinosaurs and lightning and an erupting volcano.” Brother if you can’t do what you planned to, change the fucking plans. Those constraints are how we get cool and interesting new works and themed and art directions. People love the ps1-era graphics look and it’s not because Square Enix asked chatgpt to generate a Tomb Raider cutscene in the style of Monet or whatever.

on What are some cool/decent PC games that are not on Steam? in c/games@lemmy.world · 17 Aug 2026
If you can put up with the (unending) bugs and performance issues, there really isn’t something that hits white like Star Citizen for me. A friend bought it for me but I would happily pay the minimum $45 when it finally releases in a stable and reliable playable state.
That was my question
