I'm gonna need an #ELI5 on this one. XD

Wozu braucht Europa eigentlich "W" als "Alternative zu X"?

#eli5 the #forkiverse stuff ... Please someone? I'm massively out of the loop on this one. 😂 😂
-
Okay, can someone #ELI5 what the #Forkiverse is? :blobcatcomfnight:
At the risk of sounding stupid, is it a fork of #Mastodon, or a (just) a regular Mastodon server called the Forkiverse?
Either way, sounds fascinating!

"Garbage In Garbage Out" applies to a lot of things.
🥧 Pie.
🐕 Puppies.
🏛️ Politicians.But this post is about generative AI.
We've already reached the point where the internet is more bot than human, and AI slop trained on human creativity is growing exponentially (along with its power requirements).
You see, generative AI has two main features that make it particularly effective at producing garbage: It has a high output volume and it doesn't give a fuck if it's factually wrong (sounds like most politicians and marketers actually 🤔).
So, to put this in lay-terms...
AI is like your new puppy. You feed it a nice diet of curated posts, it does cute-stupid things that are fun to post pictures of. One day you decide Mr. Sprinkles is ready to be out of the kennel when you're not home. You leave for several hours and return home to find that Mr. Sprinkles has been hoovering down everything in the bathroom waste bin. Not only that, but at some point the lil' rascal ran into the bedroom to hork up half-digested tampons and tissues on your duvet.
You look on in horror as you realize that the waste bin must've been emptied the moment you left the house, and grotesque puppy hork is littered around *everywhere*.
But it doesn't stop there. You hear slurping noises and turn around just in time to see Mr. Sprinkles happily recycling one of the previous piles of puppy puke. You stifle a gasp as you cover your mouth. How long has this cycle been going on? How many times has that tissue gone through the puppy—two, three, a hundred? At this point it's long-since been rendered into homogeneous slop (though you think you recognize a kibble or two and the edge of a Tampax wrapper).
Alright, now imagine it's not just one puppy—it's an exponentially replicating litter of dalmatian puppies with IBS. And it's not just one waste bin—it's the known universe.
Eventually *everything* will be amorphous puppy hork.

Why do we even need to spend 1 cent on the 'Gabba?
It's already an ace venue.In Melbourne in '56, they just held games on the existing oval.

CW: Explain Like I'm 5: Bluesky
Explain to me like I'm 5 + I'm too lazy to translate some official webpage with enterprise language
• What's bluesky exactly?
• Why bother making another protocol for messaging if we have so many already? (https://xkcd.com/927/)
• Why do you need an invite?
• How is it different than something like Mastodon?
• I feel like there's some kind of... Hype? Is it just me? -

CW: accessibility meta, ownership, site redesign
The design of the DarkPi site is, admittedly, a contrivance of our own, and our sysadmin aesthetic is showing a bit.
What we don't know, however, is whether this site is accessible for assistive aids, like screen readers or other browser accessibility aids.
Going to be doing some research on this, because if I'm asking questions of your disability, knowing the topic before engaging is how we try to demonstrate respect.
However, if anyone who uses an accessibility mode for interacting with sites has immediate thoughts on that matter (regarding tools to test with, paradigms to consider, or a critique of the current presentation of the information, etc), we're listening and would be delighted to integrate your feedback.

Need an ELI5 explanation of electric vertical take‑off and landing (#eVTOL) vehicles? This should do it for ya. https://www.aptiv.com/en/insights/article/what-is-an-evtol

Anyone found a good ELI5 and/or tl;dr article that explains what bollocks (e.g., AI bullshit; unwanted features) comes with Windows 11 25H2 and how to disable it? :Windows_11_Logo:
Already checked that StartAllBack added support for it last month, and has since had a further update this month for small bug fixes, but wanted to double-check ahead of time before doing an update before finding out it's breaking stuff 😅
Ideally trying to avoid spending a lot of time and energy fixing stuff (e.g., networking, particularly network drives) like with a previous update.
(Just to pre-empt some comments, honestly presently don't have the energy, time, patience, or executive function to migrate to a Linux distro, and likely won't for the foreseeable future, so please kindly don't suggest it. Thanks 🩷🫶)

Does anyone have a ELI5 for the trend towards #monorepos now? Not even 4 years ago we were moving AWAY from monolithic structures, now we're moving back??

Can someone ELI5 a good, practical reason why banking apps will refuse to work on a liberated phone, as if having the phone backdoored by Google from factory and sealed to be That Way was somehow lotsa safer than setting up a trustable Android / AOSP spin of your choice and setting the privacy programs you need?
Are the banks' official statements "we only trust your phone if Google can spy on it"?
