Interoperability between self-hosted services
Interoperability between self-hosted services - Lemmy.World
Plenty of us are using Docker, Podman, Incus, chroot jails, etc to isolate services. It has become good practice and it makes setting up yet another service, usually, so convenient. Some services like YunoHost, StartOS, Cloudron and others try to facilitate the process. What I haven’t seen though is a way to facilitate interoperability BETWEEN services we self-host. Sure there are plugins for each service, e.g. https://www.npmjs.com/package/peertube-plugin-livechat [https://www.npmjs.com/package/peertube-plugin-livechat] to provide XMPP chat for PeerTube, or anecdotal discussions e.g. https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet/issues/7601 [https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet/issues/7601] to embed PeerTube on Jitsi Meet. So… how do YOU do it? How do you make on self-hosted service with another? Do you check after each one you install in the plugin category? Do you write your own plugins or extensions? Do you have a design pattern (e.g. Swagger API discovery with token generation per service, “cheat” via sockets, use a dedicate new service or even host) which you repeat? I do ask because I bet most of you have a moment like this : - Hey how about we start this new project together? - Yes, let’s change the World! - OK let’s write manifesto.md [http://manifesto.md] - Where are we going to host it? - Hmmm we could use my Cryptpad instance… - OK but I don’t get notification on my GMail, could we use GoogleDocs instead? So… I feel like FLOSS self-hosting is honestly on-par functionality-wise with proprietary solutions. I might be bias but it’s rare when I think “Damn… that’s cool, shame I can’t have it at home”. I can nearly always (in fact I have a hard time thinking of an example) self-host functional equivalent solutions myself. The ONE thing that I feel is often missing is integration which relies on interoperability. How do YOU it?

Meta Quest 3/3s XR headsets finally rooted after 2 years
Meta Quest 3/3s XR headsets finally rooted after 2 years - Lemmy.World
Meta XR headsets are very cheap for the performance they give. Unfortunately they require a Meta account and one can assume as much data as legally possibly is sent back to the advertising company. For years now, since the Quest 1, those Android devices have not been rooted except for some specific version number of the Quest 2. This recent work https://github.com/FreeXR/eureka_panther-adreno-gpu-exploit-1 [https://github.com/FreeXR/eureka_panther-adreno-gpu-exploit-1] makes the latest headset with a rather recent update (but NOT the very last ones, so be cautious!) rootable.

"Don't know [how much energy was required to train the model], don't care." - Lemmy.World
I’m sharing this back here because I find this quite telling of the overall mindset. A very clear question was ask, albeit not an easy one, namely how much energy was needed for the training of a model before fine tuning it. The person, who was clearly promoting fine turning and self-hosting AI, clarified that this question was not important to them. I share this here because honestly I’m saddened by such a discourse (yes… I admit I need to vent) but mostly because I worry that it is the typical AI discourse, namely that hey, it’s cool on some dimensions so who cares about negative externalities? Am I entirely out of touch? Is this normal? PS: if this is X-posting or against the rules of the sub or instance, please warn me and I’ll delete.
