Brain implants helped create a digital avatar of a stroke survivor’s face www.technologyreview.com

The image is a digital avatar of a person who lost her ability to speak after a stroke 18 years ago. Now, as part of an experiment involving a brain implant and AI algorithms, she can speak with a replication of her own voice and even convey a limited range of facial expressions via her avatar.

Ansible playbook for installing pixelfed (docker) gitea.com

I tried to install pixelfed on my server using the docker compose file from the pixelfed repository. The installation was not straightforward and there were many problems. So I created an ansible playbook to automate the installation. Hope this is helpful and let me know your feedback.

cross-posted from: https://kerala.party/post/4815 > This is the best reddit like frontend I've seen. It's so good it reminds me of how the older days of reddit were like and lemmy feels just like it on some days. > > > > See [source](https://github.com/rystaf/mlmym) if you want to self host it.

How do you access lemmy? Via your browser or apps like Jerboa? What would be your recommendations/tips on accessing lemmy?

Asking since Jerboa seems to be crashing for me after the 0.0.37 update. Or maybe it's because I have added multiple accounts? Has anyone experienced the same issue?

Why do we need another technology community, there are tens of similar places in lemmyverse ?

I would like to present an argument in favor of participating in multiple similar communities within the lemmyverse, and explain why it is beneficial for you to join multiple communities across different instances. When exploring the lemmyverse, you may have noticed that there are several communities discussing similar topics on different instances. This concept is reminiscent of the system employed by Reddit, where there is a main technology subreddit and various other similar but slightly different tech communities. However, unlike Reddit, each lemmy instance operates independently, and it is advantageous to join multiple similar communities across instances. Here are the advantages: ## Increased Resilience If one instance goes down or becomes unavailable, you can still access the other communities and continue being part of the larger lemmy community. This approach acts as a form of insurance against centralization. For instance, consider the scenario where lemmy.world disappears one day; by being part of other instances, you can still stay connected. ## Resistance to excessive moderator control By joining multiple communities across instances, you ensure that no single group of moderators can solely dictate the discourse. This diversity of communities and instances fosters a more democratic environment where multiple perspectives and opinions can thrive. It promotes a decentralized approach to content moderation, where users have the freedom to engage in discussions without undue influence from a single authority. ## Addressing Usability Issues However, there are certain usability issues that the lemmy platform needs to address in order for this concept to work seamlessly. Specifically, users should have the ability to merge the feeds of multiple communities into one. This would enhance the user experience by consolidating the content from different communities, making it more convenient to navigate and engage with the lemmyverse. In summary, joining multiple similar communities in the lemmyverse is advantageous as it promotes resilience and helps guard against centralization. While there are usability concerns that need to be addressed, the ability to merge feeds across communities would further enhance the experience for users. *വാൽകഷ്ണം* I used chatGPT to convert my ramblings into readable text
