Yes, those too

Lemmy lacks a bit of polish

What if you ask if you can borrow their phone and password for an hour? They have nothing to hide?

No, it is supposed to be a weapon in the class war… https://logicmag.io/failure/the-automation-charade/

Good! People should not eat that crap. It’s hardly food.

I have given up on this series. I’m not even sure I would read the next book if it was released tomorrow. Maybe if the series is ever fully released I might reread it from the beginning to end. It’s like if Netflix published books.

I think both solutions are probably reasonable secure. Personally I use the proton solution, because I like that my data is in Europe and I prefer to pay for services. I like the more transparent and honest business where I pay and get something in return.

Nerdy communities always seem to attract some very opinionated people, which is a turn off for people just trying to do better.

I think David Graeber and David Wengrove make a case that it has worked in bigger communities too.

Yea, it’s called indexing, it’s well documented: https://www.oxfordbibliographies.com/display/document/obo-9780199756841/obo-9780199756841-0090.xml

Maybe Write Freely? You get 3 blogs for 6 dollars a month or you can host it yourself since it’s open source.

Immich might work.

If people actively pay for this, they are bloody idiots.

I don’t think this can be solved with any type of technology. It needs legislation. These AI companies need regulation.

It’s not about privacy. It’s about AI companies stealing other peoples work and knowledge and profiting. Like what they did with artists. And I think that’s bothering a lot of people. It’s kind of sad that we cannot exchange information with each other for free, without some Silicon Valley crooks taking advantage and trying to convert other people’s good will into profit.

These LLMs are also polluting the web with AI junk and slop. The web is absolutely tainted with shitty ChatGPT text and images, making it harder and harder to find authentic information. I think a lot of people don’t want to contribute with that.

It seems to matter for the users at Stack Overflow. And why should anybody give anything for free to the crooks in Silicon Valley. All they do is create technology designed to extract value out of people and give as little as possible back.

It’s owned by Meta/Facebook a company that’s makes its money spying on users. Signal or Simplex Chat are much better choices.

How could anybody stop the AI robbers from stealing content from the fediverse?

I think something like Simplex Chat is easier to use.

I’m sure the Saudis are super fair and would not dream of targeting queer people.
