pretty much, AI (LLMs specifically) are just fancy statistical models which means that when they ingest data without reasoning behind it (think the many hallucinations of AI our brains manage to catch and filter out) it corrupts the entire training process. The problem is that AI can not distinguish other AI text from human text anymore so it just ingests more and more “garbage” which leads to worse results. There’s a reason why progress in the AI models has almost completely stalled compared to when this craze first started: the companies have an increasingly hard time actually improving the models because there is more and more garbage in the training data.

The key problem why “Runs on SteamDeck” exists is not the raw power of the SteamDeck (or lack thereof) but the compatibility with Linux. Unless someone decides to utterly cripple a handheld for the sake of battery efficiency any game labeled with SteamDeck support will also run on any other handheld running SteamOS.

The problem with the SteamMachines ultimately was the lack of game support. The hardware confusion was just the cherry on top. You could even argue that the lack of supported games back then meant a limited number of customers would be interested which in turn led to companies releasing underpowered hardware. By that logic one can even claim the failure of SteamMachines is entirely down to the piss poor Linux support then.

well .ml is special, most probaboy don’t have a problem there but if you do you really do (ask me why the anime community on lemmy.ml is practically dead)

.world is just suffering from success, they regularly have federation troubles with other instances because they are by far the largest one and hence run into scaling troubles. Other than that it’s the most reddit like moderation wise also due to being so big. It’s courtesy to steer people away from .world simply to prevent the scaling problems from getting worse

well good riddance, that ‘joke’ got massively overplayed and has not been funny for a long time

the problem is less how often I have to charge my mouse and rather that I’m almost always using it and on top forgetting to charge overnight so there is no “convenient” time to charge it during the day where I’d not use it

given how often my mouse has to charge while I’m using it I’d have a major issue with it

if water makes other things wet then most water is wet because it (usually) is surrounded by more water. qed

Last I checked (which was a while ago) “AI” still can’t pass the most basic of tasks such as “show me a blank image”/“show me a pure white image”. the LLM will output the most intense fever dream possible but never a simple rectangle filled with #fff coded pixels. I’m willing to debate the potentials of AI again once they manage to do that without those “benchmarks” getting special attention in the training data.

I’d argue in the states you can lick those you really shouldn’t because it will instantly freeze your tongue off

Torrenting was created precisely to solve the bandwidth problem of monolithic servers. You very obviously have no idea how torrents (or PeerTube for that matter) works.

You mean they don’t already do that?

Earnings is incoming money before any expenditures

I mean they already take part in the Eurovision so why not? Additional bonus: people will have an even harder time differentiating Austria and Australia

oh boy that would be one hard sell. Probably would need 500k or more to justify never listening to them again

AI assistant with an actual business model for once

Codeberg is not a company tho? It’s a non-profit driven community organization

You very obviously do not understand how the blocklist works so here’s a very practical example:

ani.social is blocked by lemmy.ml.

Here is a post on lemmy.world containing comments by users from ani.social: https://lemmy.world/post/18538115

Here is that same post on lemmy.ml, which has blocked ani.social: https://lemmy.ml/post/19043133

Note the absence of any comment made by a user on ani.social. As far as users on lemmy.ml are concerned ani.social does not exist (as of 10 months ago, some existing content before then can still be viewed). I think you don’t know how ActivityPub works and calling me a conspiracy theorist won’t change that.

I guess the frog has to get into the pot first is their point? I agree that the metaphor is not doing a very good job at conveying whatever was meant though.

Yes, it is and you don’t even realize that you are participatin in a platform that doesn’t completely block Facebook Threads right now. That’s proof enough that you don’t understand the technology.

https://sh.itjust.works/instances lists threads.net under the blocked instances list, not everyone is using lemmy.world. Inform yourself before accusing others of making uninformed statements.

No need for admins at all, just have the users keep the place clean entirely by themselves, I’m sure that will work wonders /s. Let’s not worry about people browsing the instance before making an account by which they could block such content. That’s such a silly idea, who’d ever want to do that. No instead let’s make it so the entire thing is only usable with an account… wait I’ve seen that somewhere else before.

As for me being “hysteric” about an unfounded “conspiracy theory” I’m not, as is this “feature” is not implemented and if you could read you would have spotted me being pretty clear about this likely being a nothing burger all the way at the start of the conversation. Here’s the quote since you apparently missed it:

And to be fair here if the ads get federated they will likely be marked as such in some way so other Fediverse platforms should be able to filter the ads out easily.

At the very beginning this was simply a discussion about the potential impacts of this “feature” threads wants to implement. The people coming in here completely naive and blind to any potential outcome to this other than “sunshine and rainbows” are you guys. I’m not saying Threads will push ads into the fediverse. I’m not even claiming they would do it in a malicious manner. I was simply refuting the claim that it could not happen. And despite your claim I am familiar enough with mastodon to know that can happen via tag relays at the very least.

For someone calling others uninformed about the fediverse I am astonished how uniformed you are about it yourself. I am by no means deeply familiar with the activitypub protocol or the fediverse despite running an instance but I know enough about it that I can say with absolute certainty that ads could and would find their way to the fediverse. Would that be somehow novel and new? No, relays are a known factor and by their very nature they do not filter out unwanted content. When an admin subscribes to a tag or instance relay they get all the content from that relay not only the stuff they want. As such ads would not be much different from a regular post made by a company. I never claimed such anyway. I only claimed if Threads made ads federate (if then most certainly with a marker that it is an ad for compliance reasons) they would end up in the global feeds unless the platform backends implement whatever mechanisms Threads would use to mark those ads in the activitypub data. I see no reason provided so far to discredit that possibilty. Learn to differentiate between hysteria and reasonable discussion before making wild accusations next time.
