Did you? The pictures and graphics are all AI so I’m extremely unsure how trustworthy the text is.

If this project is closely based on Calibre it requires the [AIP] prefix.

Edit: Definitely needs it, Claude Code is in the contributor list.

Why the AI slop picture?

Anyway, does it need to be screenshots? My first thought would’ve been to curl the whole thing and selectively check for changes within specific sections such as the main content area while excluding pre-defined sections (e.g. a nested div of the class “price”). Your visual 5% tolerance might not catch tiny changes in a compliance document.

I like matrix too but am dealing with weird […] issues

The quintessential Matrix experience

There are parental controls, but it’s rare. FOSS projects usually aren’t very keen on building systems of authority, even parental ones.

For smartphones check out /e/OS (Murena Smartphones). They added parental controls recently, not sure how good those are though.

For computers your best bet’s probably a Linux with Gnome. They also added something recently.

You might be able to combine both with a custom DNS service, surely there’s something out there for that usecase (NextDNS?). But that’s already getting pretty complex.

I mean, they “plan” to publish that info, right?

I’d bet they used at least CommonCrawl (with it being the majority of data), arXiv, Wikipedia and the set containing all of Github. Probably not a lot of distillation.

CommonCrawl is one of the reasons small websites and social instances get DDoS’ed by rules-ignoring AI crawlers. Wikipedia data basically always gets used without paying them. Github… well, it’s a prime example of how they broke millions of licenses.

There’s also other stuff commonly used. Don’t get me started on the training sets for image generation. It’s beyond disgusting (and I’m not even talking just about theft and cultural destruction at this point).

This stuff is a bottomless pit, and if those (F)OSS models really aim to be up at the top they’ll have to break every possible moral, ethical and legal rule just like everyone else. Even more so if they omit closed-source training sets.

My question would be if it uses stuff like CommonCrawl as training material. Given their size I assume they used anything incl. unethical training data, but at least admit it?

The only models I ever found that even tried to only resort to ethically obtained data, being FOSS etc. were the tiny ones from PleIAs. And as expected they’re completely useless.

So far I concluded that an “ideologically sound” LLM is impossible due to lack of training data. Unless your ideology allows to steal stuff.

I mean, I get the sentiment. But after decades of dealing with it I’m pretty sure ADHD sucks any way and I’d like a refund. Nobody should have to deal with this crap.

Not just that, companies are using “smart” devices as AI scraper botnets to utilize private, basically unbanable IPs. There are only very few companies who I might believe them not doing it (AllenAI and maybe Mistral - tell me if I’m proven wrong pls). But OpenAI, Anthropic, fucking Google and Meta, they all treat your network as their personal internet extension. It’s reasonable to assume any “Smart” device with wifi access that isn’t FOSS most likely being your enemy.

Our family Nextcloud already got taken down by OpenAI swarming it… overloaded and crashed php-fpm within a minute. At least one client blasting all endpoints still advertised themselves as OpenAI crawler.

Why does this remind me of the common argument made against democracy and for e.g. China… “it moves fast, less resistance, faster results”…

And yet it’s still worse.

The whole argument doesn’t hold up either. Your company - or the people behind it, if it’s new - just can’t be known as the usual profit-driven asshole. I mean, look at how the relations between the Community and Valve is. Nobody would argue Valve being perfect, but they’re known not to be the usual assholes and thereby cautiously welcome.

If you or your company can’t deal with society being vigilant (especially in capitalism) then they’ve no place in said society. This vigilance is the only reason Linux still feels made for the user(advanced ones, but still). Fuck anyone who wants to destroy that with means of accelerationism and alike.

DHH and Omarchy are just cultural cancer. What you correctly described is basically one aspect of how unfettered capitalism manipulates people and destroys healthy communities for the sake of growth.

Why is there are bloody GPU generating garbage in my human space. :<

You just need to choose to live in an appropriate location.

Again, it’s a choice.

You just need to relocate, find affordable housing (lol), find a new job at that new place, convince your partner, potentially rip away your kids from their environment, move far away from family and friends, find a completely new social circle and then you’ll finally be able to live car-free! Except all the times you’ll now have to rent one.

Like, seriously? It is not always just a choice, you’re just god damn privileged to be easily able to move. Let alone to a pricy place with quality infrastructure.

Why is this being downvoted, it’s correct. The way shit is set up right now a lot of people do not have a choice but to drive, and not just in the US. Oil has been purposefully made a hard dependence.

live in a small space heated with a heat pump

Their thin walls cause this to only be a tiny improvement I’d wager (still the best option though). They can even punch holes in their walls, if I tried this with a german drywall I’d break all the bones in my hand.

but I suspect your nation is simply too wealthy to hit the target

This implies environmental protection contradicts wealth (as in “lots of money in one n̶a̶t̶i̶o̶n̶ regional administrative zone”), a common conservative lie. It doesn’t, unfettered capitalism does. E.g. the solar business makes fucking bank but is a net positive on the environment. So are lots of other businesses. The definition of wealth is fucked anyway.

And the previous commenter mentioned ownCloud, I just wanted to point out that feature isn’t unique to that. I wasn’t talking to OP.

For example, it has file versioning, and companion apps on major OSs that help with managing local and cloud stored files.

Nextcloud also got both.
