It is and it’s a great movie. Probably the best movie about ai.

One subreddit I am actually missing is /r/combatfootage, which was just clips like these.

Quite the opposite. Due to systemic corruption autocracies are economically highly inefficient with low productivity across the board with all kinds of long term effects this brings. And while it might look bad for democracies at the moment, I think many of the current crop of autocracies will be short lived. In the end, economy is where it’s at, and autocracies are horrible at it.

You’re right. An even shittier reddit that failed due to extreme greed before? What’s the point?

This is the correct answer.

What federation protects from is the singular owner of the platform sweeping in and setting/enforcing new rules for some or all communities. This could still happen on one instance, but new instances can mitigate the effects. Single communities can still turn bad, but it will be up to the users to decide whether to stick around or move to other communities.

This attitude is exactly the problem. The current situation is new and unprecedented. Not seeing the difference is the type of ignorance that allowed this to happen in the first place.

Just for anyone who still holds out hope: NATO as we have known it is over. The US won’t come to the defense of the other members if they are attacked. It’s time to move on.

I strongly disagree. They are actually very dumb and there is no grand strategy at play here. While everyone tries to understand the sense behind the erratic decisions, there really is not much to understand at all. It’s as simple as “we don’t want to spend money on European defense anymore”, so all activities related to that are stopped, without any regard to the consequences.

The very concept of “allies” carries no more meaning in relation to the Trump administration.

I’ve noticed an uptik of pro Chinese propaganda content here on lemmy in recent days. I am afraid the fediverse had been discovered.

I root for bazzite. It’s so easy to setup and update all while providing superb support for gaming. I actually run it as a desktop os and I love it.

The beatings will continue until morale improves.

Doing this research transparently is a good idea, it will only be a matter of time before other actors will try and use LLMs to influence lemmy. Like spam, bots and farms, this is a reality the fediverse will have to deal with eventually. Better start preparing now.

That is my impression, too.

Thank God I’m not on reddit anymore.

When Johnson says it you know it’s a lie.

The lifting of all sanctions against Russia, I guess.

I expected this and yet I am shocked. The ultimate betrayal. This will have irreversible consequences for the US and the world order.

I’ve been comparing PieFed to lemmy and it’s not even a close call. Accessing lemmy with an app like Thunder or Voyager is far more comfortable and efficient. Insurance choice is great, discovery is easy and the overall experience feels very polished.
