And to make it worse apparently Estée Lauder is a Trump supporting company 😞 So I am looking for an ABA replacement. I like their style of The Ordinary products where it’s mostly single or a few ingredients to customize.

Has anybody tried Inkey List products? They are a UK company. Seems like they have what I want to replace so I am going to try some. Any other suggestions?

BET has made a major move that’s catching a lot of people off guard. The network has officially suspended both the BET Hip Hop Awards and the Soul Train Awards indefinitely. Yes, that means two of the most culturally significant nights in Black music have no set date to return, and there’s no word on whether they ever will.

This isn’t just about two award shows. The BET Hip Hop Awards has been the go-to celebration of rap and hip hop culture since 2006, known for its cyphers, bold performances, and moments that made headlines. Likewise, the Soul Train Awards have been honoring R&B and soul since 1987, highlighting legends while giving shine to emerging talent.

BET CEO Scott Mills confirmed, “For BET linear, we have suspended the Soul Train and Hip-Hop award shows. But we have a team that’s actively thinking about where those award shows might best live as the media climate continues to evolve.”

He added, “It’s not about them being over. It’s about reimagining how we deliver them in today’s fast-changing media landscape.”

I am looking for a good fitness tracker to start doing cardio in a more measured way.

I was interested in Polar and Oura as EU alternatives (both Finnish companies), but both send data (health data, which is sensitive according to Article 9 of the GDPR) to AWS.

Are you aware of any EU solutions, or at least non-US, Chinese, Russian, or Israeli solutions, that do not send my data to companies in those countries?

I would like to be able to organize something self-hosted, but I don't think I'm capable of doing that yet.

I know the reputation that AI has on Lemmy, however I've found that some users (like myself) have found that LLMs can be useful tools.

What are fellow AI users using these tools for? Furthermore, what models are you using that find the most useful?

Exclusive: Andrea Velez and Adrian Martinez recount their capture by immigration officers and its effects on their lives

As two masked men dragged her into an unmarked SUV, Andrea Velez tried to focus on details she might later remember – one man’s red shirt, the car’s leather seats, a black backpack inside.

At 9.20am on 24 June in downtown Los Angeles, the 32-year-old was heading into work at a footwear company when the men in gator masks jumped out of their car and started chasing vendors and other people on the street, she recalled. As people fled, Velez froze and held on to her bag.

Suddenly, she recalled, one of the men slammed her to the ground and placed her into his car. The men had “Police” vests, but otherwise were in plainclothes and didn’t identify themselves. She didn’t know why they had taken her.

I’m looking for a community that discusses LLM implementations, research breakthroughs, and real-world applications. I want to avoid blanket statements either in favour of or against this technology. Does it exist?

Bonus question: Is there a dedicated community for finding communities besides the trending/new communities posts?

I've typed a few terms that I could think of into search and it hasn't revealed what I'm looking for.
