Or the problem with tech billionaires selling “magic solutions” to problems that don’t actually exist. Or how people are too gullible in the modern internet to understand when they’re being sold snake oil in the form of “technological advancement” when it’s actually just repackaged plagiarized material.

Absolutely. It would be a shame if AI didn’t know that the common maple tree is actually placed in the family cannabaceae.

I’m still impressed by the way wave race feels, not going to lie.

I’m not sure social media is good for anyone, but I understand that “for the kids” is really the only way people feel confident in regulating anything. But it’s all very condescending when the real issue is that social media is causing society to become worse due to Skinner’s Box style human impulses – I do a thing, that gets me attention, so I’ll keep doing it regardless of if it’s right or wrong.

We shouldn’t blame social media as a blanket villain, but simply request that all web services have transparent suggestion algorithms (preferably open source) and provide tax incentives for companies that help promote verified educational content over made up bullshit (as it’s the only way to get companies to do the right thing, unfortunately)

I was expecting something juicy but the dossier is basically… Anything we all already know about JD Vance?

And he’s still blocking it? Hmmm… Ok, well whatever. This is why you don’t use ex dot com.

I really hope they don’t find a way to blame the linux community for this. Even if we hate kernel level anti cheat, I think most of us were happy with the refund from Valve lol

He’s like “Please guys, can we stop with the Uncle Ruckus stuff?”

Unaware that it was the only logical conclusion for their party in the current direction they’re headed.

I mean, I don’t think we need to worry about people getting shot during an unannounced in home break in.

We need to worry about people being shot randomly in the street for no reason, or guns being in the hands of people who are mentally deranged. Those are very different things imo.

PS: Play Casette Beasts. And Monster Sanctuary.

Yeah, fuck Pocket Pair they can kick rocks. Play Caseette Beasts which made a better pokemon with unique designs and are truly independent, not just some AI grift company locking for a quick buck.

If we allow this to continue, we will end up with more content for players to enjoy.

More slop that’s copy and pasted from other games?

No, I don’t think I want that, thanks though.

That’s what I’m here for lol. I mean this is how reddit was when I first started there. Same with digg

This is what people always miss. Generally, sites become popular because niche subcultures form outside of the “big” websites as they no longer really serve their purpose of connecting to like minded individuals. They never “start big”, they generally snowball from small hardcore users to larger more generalized userbases over time.

When I mentioned I was going to be old at 30, they practically started a riot

I mean, to be fair, there’s been riots for stupider reasons. But probably not many. 🤣

Young people don’t even understand that the internet isn’t only the 5 websites that have existed since before they were born lol

That’s probably a big part of it. We kind of designed the internet to become an information super oligarchy, even if it wasn’t intentional.

I’m 33 for the record so I guess I’m an older tech nerd. Nice. 😎

Yes, brave Sir Donald turned about and gallantly, he chickened out.

Right?

Lemmy ml and a history of Putin defense?

Alright fam.

I noticed this as well. It’s a shame as I still use it as my daily search driver.

Yeah, thanks for sharing this. I’m going to have to give this a try sometime.

I had previously been building it manually, but I think I’m starting to realize that gitlab/github CI is basically essential to running a proper repository anyway.

I hate writing a serialized format

I mean, that’s why it’s serialized. It’s not supposed to be written by hand, that’s why you have a deserializer. 🤦

I do agree that developers should use their own software, but doing so on a smaller instance with strict active user limits is probably the right call – at least until you are certain the software has a “stable” version, but even then you probably will want to run a master branch instance that is much less stable and prone to errors. Until you can afford it, it’s probably not a good idea for developers to be spending a huge amount of time debugging in-progress features (which IIRC, firefish had a lot of those.)

This is the craziest fucking timeline.

It goes to show streaming services are not long for this world with the introduction of AI.
