On old Twitter, community notes was simply a function of raising a flag for tweets that got ratio’d. This would open those tweets up for Community Notes users to submit a fact check. Then, the fact check with the highest upvotes gets displayed as the default one.
Now? Not sure. Elon is a sneaky fucker. But I do think it could be implemented as a simple comment queue that admins and moderators could set user roles to help with.
CEOs think on a quarterly basis, exclusively. Any problems that result are next quarter’s problem!
If you are thinking, “gee whiz, that seems like an insane and deeply unsustainable idea,” you would be right.
Yeah. And AWS was supposed to replace on-prem hosting. Except, now, they represent a higher opex cost than even payroll.
I see no reason why OpenAI isn’t just charging peanuts for service to build a gigantic user base who can’t think without it, then jacking the price up to whatever they want — and I can assure you, if Sam Altman has the option to become an immortal trillionaire, he will take it.
Could be a good feature to add to PieFed, which is built on Python specifically to allow more developers to have access to building extensions and plugins.
Damnit. I wanted to be optimistic and skeptical that this wouldn’t happen exactly the way the internet said it would. >:(
I was browsing Epstein’s black book yesterday, and it is actually a little alarming how many Kennedys are in there. I know an address book isn’t the same as a client list, but it does mean that they most likely knew one another.
I also learned that Minnie Driver as of 2008 or so, when this black book was seized as part of an investigation, used an EarthLink.net email address lol
God. That woman is so brave that I can’t even imagine what it’s like. Kanye, crazy as he is by himself, also has a league of devoted fans who will make this woman’s life a living hell.
Why the fuck do we make it so hard for women to just be alive? We carve a special space out for them, then just crowd the walls to make it impossible to breathe there.
That’s what my NetBook had, back when those were The Thing To Have :)
Me, a Debian Enjoyer but Ubuntu Hater: 👀
Sometimes, designing systems for non-technical people requires a little compromise on the licensing extremism that is very baked into FOSS culture.
It is why most Linux folks are stoked that Linux can play Windows games reliably — it means that millions of Windows lifers are getting exposed to Arch Linux for the first time. Sure, Steam is proprietary, and so are Nvidia drivers, but nobody decides to start with Linux and stay there (they do, but, I am talking single digit numbers vs the billions using Windows). Everyone has to start somewhere.
That said, big frown on Ubuntu. I would personally prefer something like Debian that has fewer major update increments, or an immutable Arch setup.
This may as well be porn to me.
Boy, that is going to just encourage companies like RealPage. 😬 How much more can rent go up before it starts cutting into people’s grocery or medicine budgets?
This guy looks like his dick is real red.
Hey, my dad played on the West Virginia University Epsteins!
Believe it or not, that’s what dutch clogs (sabots, the teardrop-shaped wooden shoes) were for. They were around as early as the 1500s.
I feel ya, I’m in the same place. Weed helps the rumination a lot but then I’m just high all the time and not really present. I decided to take a big step back from online messaging. Now I try to either text directly or do FaceTime. I dunno why, but, after basically needing Internet to live for 25 years, I just feel so ready to put it down now.
God. I love a woman in overalls.
I saw a clip of Trump speaking in 2020 this morning as I did my daily video catch-up over coffee, and it really struck me how much sicker he looks now compared to just 5 years ago, where he already looked like a wet mop on a clothing line.
I know the Presidency ages you, but that’s regular presidents who work. Something else is aging this guy this quickly.
Pretty much why we unplugged all of ours. I just need to set a timer, don’t tell me extra shit!
