Treevan 🇦🇺

I got it during a websearch. Changed VPN server to another city and it went away. Mullvad.

Me be like:

Beaver. Always beaver.

Australia is mostly degraded, channelised shallow creeks and erosion problems. Bam, beaver does all the work for us.

Can beavers survive in the subtropics?

I live in an area that was 95% cleared of rainforest. Our clearing rate is now near zero (but not zero), much success for everyone.

Are we going to restore it?

No. Farmers don’t want to.

A Pixel (with long security updates) because GrapheneOS is the operating system to use.

It’s limiting but that’s the way it is.

In Australia, there were some news articles stating that if an elderly person can’t explain the scratches (blood, body parts) on their car, you should take them to a Doctor to get their licence revoked. But only if you can force them to go somehow.

Yep, I’m where I am, subscribed to zero communities but I can check out what’s happening nationally using Local. If the instance got massive, that would change but it’s fine as it is.

I guess the science instances, the art instances, the solarpunk instance, or even porn instances etc use Local heavily.

Austria? Well, then. G’day mate! Let’s put another shrimp on the barbie!

Unless you pick an instance where the local feed is important to you. It can go either way.

The dream would be that I could sort them into a feedreader and select articles out but that won’t happen. Nor would I want a bot doing it either.

Unfortunately, no one else posts so for the meantime, I just have to keep going or let it die.

I made myself a thread of interests I add to over time:

Key Points

• The author is unsure about how much alt-text is optimal for images.
• They have no problem writing a lot and have the means to do so.
• The author uses Hubzilla, which has no limit on post or alt-text length.
• They prioritize accessibility and provide full transcriptions of all texts in a picture.
• The author posts pictures to illustrate their posts, not as the main focus.
• Virtual world pictures often require more description due to unfamiliar objects or locations.
• There are two schools of thought on alt-text: clear and concise vs. full description.
• Alt-text can enhance accessibility for all users, not just those with visual impairments.

The author discusses the use of alt-text in the Threadiverse and Fediverse. They highlight its importance for accessibility and non-technical viewers and advocate for refusing to boost posts without sufficient alt-text.

https://search-lemmy.com just added a Find Community feature that works well. Not precisely what you’ve asked but it does match results to a keyword so you can correlate matches with “growing” perhaps.

Sorry, I just deleted that part because I did some further testing and couldn’t be sure if I was imagining it.

You’ve cleared it up. Looks like adding submission statements ranks it higher then. Typing in “biodiversity” ranks it higher than the literal community about “biodiversity” on Mander.

You’ve created an excellent tool, well done.

Works well when you notice the “Find Communities” button. I did a search at first and thought it was exactly the same.

I run one small community and I have blasted it with content. Searching some relevant keywords puts it on top, or near top, of every search. Now it’s a race for the more relevant communities to overtake it.

I’m not bothered by it. Just joking around. I come here for things different from memes.

Stop lying!

Mine is in plants which a lot of models seem to struggle with. It’s not the science side, it’s the application side so with that, there is another layer of intelligence that the AI has to break through to appeal to me (answer my particular questions).

I tested it again with something even more particular and unique to an Australian plant and it was way off. I think I may have been one of the only people to ever post a particular technique to reddit and the AI mustn’t be searching in there as it didn’t even know about it even when asked directly. To its credit, it did give a good suggestion on who to contact to find out more.

I asked it directly. It didn’t know and stated it has never had version numbers. I pointed out that news articles differentiate 1.0 and 2.0. It agreed but didn’t say what it was. I asked it again directly, it said it was 2.0.

Hard to believe something that feels like it’s lying to you all the time. I asked it about a topic that I’m in and have a website about, it told me the website was hypothetical. It got it wrong twice, even after it agreed it was wrong, and then told me the wrong thing again.
