  • While I understand the aggressive anti religious sentiment I also emphasize with your beliefs so perhaps a different way of phrasing it:

    The link to religion is not so much on right or wrong but accepting or not. I’d I understand your context than your church teaches accepting and empathy.

    This is not a universal, objective “correct” thing! You, and me as well, feel these values as right and choose to defend them. But there’s no nature law enforcing this.

    And now the opposite as true as well. By having a peer group which is self reinforcing people can come to the belief that there are people who are worth less. Or evil. Or dumb.

    Now the step to fascism is only a small one: my nation is best, my leader is best, etc.

    If belief gets strong enough than objective discussion can’t take place anymore - both for things that we connotate positive as well as negative.


  • I’m with what @BCsven@lemmy.ca said: get s mixed box if unsure.

    That said: highly depending on her age and interests as well there is no need to go deeper into specific bricks.

    After all the only thing that prevents a couple of 4x2 to become an airplane is imagination. Or a fire, a house, an animal.

    So I suggest depending on age and interest to just talk with her and adjust accordingly.

    And: especially Lego can be sometimes sniped used in big mixed boxes at flea markets and the likes - something that would bring s but of lootbox excitement in your lifes without the downsides;)



  • Sadly there is no answer for you available because many of the processes around this are hidden.

    I can only chime in from my own amateur experiments and there are answer is a clear “depends”. Most adjustments are made either via additional training data. This simply means that you take more data and feed it indi an already trained LLM. The result is again an LLM black box with all its stochastic magic.

    The other big way are system prompts. Those are simply instructions that already get interpreted as a part of te request and provide limitations.

    These can get white fancy by now, in the sense of “when the following query asks you to count something run this python script with whatever you’re supposed to count as input, the result will be a json that you can take then and do XYZ with it.”

    Or more simple: you tell the model to use other programs and how to use them.

    For both approaches I don’t need to maintain list: For the first one I have no way of knowing what it’s doing in detail and I just need to keep the documents themselves.

    For the second one it’s literally a human readable text.





  • You got a lot of relevant answers so I want to point out something else:

    You’re hosting your own services. By yourself. Fuck everyone with a broom who tries to gatekeep that. And I don’t mean wooden side first.

    Seriously, your question is on point here from my perspective and as long as it has a connection to running services by your own I personally would love more diversity in hosting solutions.

    Personally, I’d love to see people share more about their provider agnostic opentofu deployment or someone who went all in on AWS lambdas for weird stuff.




  • And the top comment explains why it indeed is such s big issue. This is incomprehensibly incompetent.

    There are few more services you need to be able to trust beyond your mail and VPN. If you have still trust then that’s ok, don’t get me wrong - but stating “just because the CEO spewed s bit of pro trump shit this got blown out of proportion” doesn’t acknowledge the propositions at all.





  • One thing that was only mentioned briefly by someone else is the physical button turning on the computer.

    Similar to the paperclip test figure out where the power button goes into the mainboardw and bridge that with a short cable. Is possible that by moving the case the old button lost a cable.

    This is just one more thing to test though, it’s really trial and error as you know :)


  • From what I understand: CasaOS is simply an abstraction layer and takes away a lot of the manual work.

    I agree with you that this shows down learning quite a bit.

    I see three ways forward for you:

    a) switch to a Linux base system, Debian, arch, nixos, whatever resonates and set up everything from scratch. High learning curve but no more hidden things.

    b) same as a but as a separate setup. This is what I would recommend if you have the time and cash. Replicate what’s already working and compare.

    c) figure out how to do things manually within the CasaOS framework. Can’t help you there though :)
