woleium··on Worlds more habitable than Earth?
As far as I’m aware, the science at the moment says that we cannot reproduce in space, so unless we send embryos that are raised by the machine machines it’s likely impossible

woleium··on The Hugging Face Hack Wasn't What It Was Cracked Up to Be
Reads like an AI trying to downplay the severity of the situation. Very cyberpunk.
woleium··on I refuse to let SPICE die
You need a HW encoder per VM, which means vGPU/SR-IOV for anything multi-tenant. But it would work similar to qemu-rdp (which is a better codebase and really, the successor to SPICE): -display dbus can get the framebuffer to any external process, so a Moonlight-protocol server could attach there. Nobody's done it that I can find.

woleium··on The AI Industry Is Lying to You
It’s supply and demand, as long as the demand is there the numbers can be maintained

woleium··on Bye Bye Gmail
Google Workspace + Microsoft 365 together around 95% of hosted corporate seats.

Total people using email (2024–2025): about 4.5–4.6 billion.

Google (Gmail consumer + Google Workspace): ≈3.0 billion active users/mailboxes.

numbers from perplexity, but probably good enough for casual conversation

woleium··on Bye Bye Gmail
I think it’s more about picking your battles.

I don’t use google oauth, prefer user pass and email

I use google for email and docs, it’s convenient. i use my own domain though, and i backup my data nightly.

I feel like i have de-risked the relationship as much as is reasonable and am happy to move if i have to with minimal data or access loss (time to restore all data somewhere may be a bit of an issue, but there are workarounds)

woleium··on Bye Bye Gmail
google hosts 1/4 of all emails. They will probably have most of your email anyway
