Look at all of the related “risks” and add them up. I’m sure that drowning is a small number, but then add in all of the deaths from scalding, acid rain, poisons (that contain water), etc etc and it eventually gets to be a very big number. Probably in the millions
As awful as that is, the design of those dumpsters will always lead to this. To put the bag in, you must hold the lid open well above your head (and higher than many people can reach) while holding a heavy bag of trash, then lift it even higher to get it in. If you are smaller than average (e.g. a child), physically disabled, or just not an able-bodied adult, that becomes impossible
Your instance may block NSFW, so you may need an alt on that instance
That’s not entirely true- you can upload your own, but you can only seed to users that do have port forwarding. On many trackers, that initial seed is all going to seed boxes with an autograb script enabled anyway, and those do have port forwarding.
This isn’t just a matter of law, but of technology. Part of the point of these large language models is the massive corpus of raw data. It’s not supposed to mimic a specific person or work, but rather imitate ALL of them. Ideally, you wouldn’t even be able to pinpoint anyone or anything in particular.
(If you’re asking about a different type of AI, then disregard)
True, but getting quiet puts a point on exactly how personal their question was.
Breitbart on the mainstream, centrist posts. Most of it’s way further out there. I have no idea which ones are inauthentic shitposts and which ones are legit. They are way beyond Poe’s Law.
But more important is when they show up on other instances. Everything becomes an argument, dragging down everyone and everything they encounter. This also can’t be solved by just blocking the communities on EH, it must be blocked at the community’s instance or our (the viewer’s) home instance.
I’ve been hearing different answers on this lately, particularly regarding Lemmy.world and Beehaw. Beehaw defederated LW, but not vice versa. The result is that no one on Beehaw can see any posts on LW, but users on LW are seeing some posts on Beehaw. It doesn’t seem to be a complete cut to all communication.
But that’s still something worth bringing up - Here is the list of instances that block FMHY, and are (somewhat) effectively isolated from us here:
https://fba.ryona.agency/?domain=lemmy.fmhy.ml
The only one that’s significant is feddit.de. From what I can tell, it’s because FMHY has open registration
Another good one is to horrify them- get quiet and uncomfortable, and say something about how the doctors think you’re infertile.
Assuming these are people you just met, of course.
I think every city/location sub is like this. It’s the only one not governed by interest, but of location.
I’m trying to seed my own, but it’s a Sisyphean task. And I know the only way to really get it going is to mention Lemmy IRL.
It’s not a drop-in replacement by any means. It lacks all sorts of features, details, and community that I lost last month.
However, it does (mostly) hold the same place in my life. And having said that, I realize how pointless it really is if none of that really matters
I’ve noticed that a number of comments from other instances are being edited when they appear on FMHY. After some digging, these are all clearly words being censored to prevent spam. This is not context aware, so it is blocking/modifying legitimate comments. Is it possible to disable this feature?
Example:
Original comment: https://lemmy.world/comment/894327
Federated to FMHY: https://lemmy.fmhy.ml/comment/706234
It’s because of the very impassioned speech by then-Senator Ted “Tubes” Stevens, where he demonstrated that he clearly had no idea how any of it worked. You could hear the lobbyists in every bit that he parroted, without absorbing it. He also had formed a strong opinion already, despite clearly having just been told how it works.
It’s not that it’s a bad analogy. It’s that it’s (somewhat) reductionist, and most famously associated with an idiot.
Nah, coffee pots are strictly clients in the world of tomorrow. They connect to a (datamining) cloud service, and you control it through an app.
What’s wild is that IPoAC was actually tested, and shown to have a higher throughput than the local ISP. Source
In most communities, old content isn’t helpful. It doesn’t start any conversations, and people don’t look at the old stuff.
Stuff like porn, pics, aww, or other subs where the conversation wasn’t the point are an exception.
Use lemmyverse.net to find communities across all instances. It will make you search a lot easier, and show you when a community exists on multiple instances
What’s interesting about this is that there really isn’t an r/All. All@lemmy.world will be different from All@beehaw.org, will be different from All@lemmy.ml, and will be VERY different from All@lemmynsfw.com
There are plenty of people that do this, and it seems to be pretty straightforward.
There is a significant risk going forward though- if the undesirables (the ones that currently get larger instances defederated) start doing this in any major way, then the larger instances will block new federation or smaller instances by default. Starting now is actually probably a good move, since you might be grandfathered in when that occurs.
Also, be aware of local laws regarding content you host. You could be liable for illegal content you inadvertantly receive.
While being decentralized certainly creates a barrier, most of the details behind PageRank (and the other algorithms in use by Google) are pretty well documented. If it doesn’t already, throwing in Lemmy as a keyword should soon bring up a Lemmy intense (probably Lemmy.ml or Lemmy.World) as a top result. As people click those links, the results will go higher.
The bigger challenge is that the content you are trying to find isn’t here yet. Those results on the old site were built over years of massive user engagement. Lemmy has barely had a month since people started joining en masse, and it’s still a fraction of what we lost.
TL;DR: Just keep using it and spread the word. The rest will happen naturally
