It seems obvious you know your behavior sucks. You can either make an effort, which most people actually do, or you can pretend you don’t understand and use it as an excuse.

Eventually they won’t be there for you. Why would they when you can’t even be polite or watch their stupid little half a minute videos.

Relationships take effort. It’s easy to notice when the effort is only one sided and it’s very hard to come back from it once it’s clear. Minimum effort or less doesn’t make for good friendships.

Add exclamation points. I’d say no one really does nothing, just share honestly and ask the question back, even if it’s just cleaning or binging some movies.

He’s a tool for manipulation first and foremost, and therefor must be relatable regardless of any grammar rules or even what’s actually written in the Bible.

They would probably use “they” instead in any case, if it were to change. “It” is for objects, pets and clowns.

Cooking up global fediverse rules specifically meant to try and exclude an instance is crossing the line imo. If you don’t like interacting with them, join one of the many instances that have already blocked them.

This kind of crusade goes against the spirit of the fediverse imo.

I think many keep their moderation accounts separate from the account they use to post and comment. Checking their comment history doesn’t mean much.

Film everything for a start. There are apps that automatically upload as you film so they can’t just grab your phone and delete it.

If we can insure crimes all the way up to genocide, wheres my luigi insurance policy? Is the annual price dependant on the crime?

You guys both posted it within a few seconds of each other judging by my app updating the time. Impressive.

“But you said you would be my friend if I did what you said!”

The best would be for apps to let us create feeds. So a user can have an all feed but also his custom technology feed with niche communities and an art feed, etc. If the user can name and choose which communities are added, he can check at a glance, like with the all feed, for the niche communities tailored to his tastes.

I see “active”, “last 6 hours”, etc as filters as opposed to feeds if that makes sense.

I mean, I’ll take either to be honest.

All LLMs and Gen AI use data they don’t own. The Pile is all scraped or pirated info, which served as a starting point for most LLMs. Image gen is all scraped from the web. Speech to text and video gen mainly uses YouTube data.

So either you put a price tag on that data, which means only a handful of companies can afford to build these tools (including Meta), or you understand that piracy is the only way for most to aquire this data but since it’s highly transformative, it isn’t breaching copyrights or directly stealing from them as piracy “normally” is.

I’m being pragmatic.

The existence hinges on the rewriting and strengthening of copyright laws by data brokers and other cancerous tech companies. It’s not Meta vs us, but opensource vs Google and Openai.

They are being sued for copyright infringement when it’s clearly highly transformative. The rules are fine as is, Meta isn’t the one trying to change them. I shouldn’t go against my own interests and support frivolous lawsuits that will negatively impact me just because Meta is a boogeyman.

Don’t give me that slop. No one except the biggest names are getting a dime out it once OpenAI buys up all the data and kills off their competition. It’s also highly transformative, which used to be perfectly legal.

Copyright laws have been turned into a joke, only protecting big money and their interests.

Meta has open sourced every single one of their llms. They essentially gave birth to the whole open llm scene.

If they start losing all these lawsuits, the whole scene dies and all those nifty models and their fine-tunes get removed from huggingface, to be repackaged and sold to us with a subscription fee. All the other domestic open source players will close down.

The copyright crew aren’t the good guys here, even if it’s spearheaded by Sarah Silverman and Meta has traditionally played the part of the villain.

This is a thread about what Trump is currently doing and the most upvoted comment is blaming voters. I don’t know what alienating people after the election serves. It’s literally going to make sure they repeat the same behavior, doubly so if the dems feel confident enough to run on apathy a second time.

My point is that currently, most here seem to be vocal about the wrong thing. They voted stupidly but we’re goaded into it by a party that clearly does not represent its constituantes anymore. We should be asking the party to change but we are doing the opposite.

In a real life trolley problem, you are supposed to blame the ones driving the train and tying up people to tracks, not the guy pulling the lever.

Yes not voting was stupid, but it’s dumber to actually think they hold the blame. The dems won’t even acknowledge being pro genocide was a bad move and it’s because they feel confident their base has been manipulated to blame a scape goat.

What kind of change are we to expect if we can’t even be vocal about something so ridiculous as supporting genocide even after most of us held the line and voted for it anyways. Keep them accountable and stop giving them an easy out.

I don’t consider it immoral regardless tbh

This is valid just on taste alone. The thing was ugly even before Elon started his descent into madness.
