Stellar example of a republican: “Fuck you, I got mine”

I really wish fire departments would do this.

I’m not giving Fascist Musk and Zuckernazi more power by creating an account to view whether my house is going to burn down from the growing wave of wildfires.

Perhaps they’ll start using the fediverse…

Email does not have issues finding emails.

Ah now see…

I’ve certainly had issues with desktop outlook finding emails that mobile outlook recieved minutes ago. But now pertinent is that is only true for modern email - and only true for established email - it’s why everyone suggests not hosting your own email.

But, hopefully that experience continues to improve so it’s not a concern for any longer

Unfortunate since people are confused on the whole federated aspect (which… who hasn’t used email? 🤦🏻‍♂️), but also the interactions are much more rewarding since they’re genuine and don’t feel like an algorithm (since there is no algorithm).

A shame it doesn’t have hall effect thumbsticks (and vibration), but more quality controllers I will not shake a stick at.

Nothing stopping them from forking it now

Layoffs sometimes mean freeing up salaries for different positions (e.g. a company pivoting). Curious jobs though, not really sure what to read from those tea leaves…

Absolutely no way this doesn’t explicitly target certain groups of people and end up in a lawsuit.

Doesn’t seem like that gravy train will roll on forever

Man, wait till this journalist hears about this little thing called the Fediverse.

Funny enough

Now how about forum signatures?

Instead of a multitude of differing moderation teams, you’re subject to a single one, BlueSky itself, I guess?

Anyone worried about moderation on a social media platform probably needs to think a little more introspectively though…

A llm making business decisions has no such control or safety mechanisms.

I wouldn’t say that - there’s nothing preventing them from building in (stronger) guardrails and retraining the model based on input.

If it turns out the model suggests someone killing themselves based on very specific input, do you not think they should be held accountable to retrain the model and prevent that from happening again?

From an accountability perspective, there’s no difference from a text generator machine and a soda generating machine.

The owner and builder should be held accountable and thereby put a financial incentive on making these tools more reliable and safer. You don’t hold Tesla not accountable when their self driving kills someone because they didn’t test it enough or build in enough safe guards – that’d be insane.

Considering the staggering cost of AI models, waiting until AI solves the problem is going to do nothing but prove the Great Filter hypothesis.

EU approves steep tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles

European Union countries failed to agree on whether…

So… which is it?

Oh derp

🤨

Yet both Android and Apple phones use MEMS silicon for their devices, so why were only Apple phones affected?

Glad I’ve got an Android since I could potentially work with liquid Hydrogen…

Just as a small update, you might be surprised.
