Push 3 degrees harder, relent 2 when there’s resistance.

Meaning, 3 steps ahead for them if there’s no resistance. 1 step ahead if there is.

Wait some time, repeat.

rams into someguy3

No.

You could have every single piece of technology on the planet using AI and it would still falter, because HUMANS DON’T WANT AI! Time and time again it’s been shown that people don’t like this shit. You’re spending money that hasn’t been made, on ram that hasn’t been produced, to be installed in AI data centers that haven’t been built, to run AI farms that have zero interest from humans, to chase profits that will never come.

I would normally say “congratulations, you fell for it again”, except nobody is tricking you here. YOU are the one tricking yourself. Every expert has stated that CEOs everywhere report no actual benefit from their AI use. Tech experts everywhere report that customers don’t want AI in their toilet. Or their toaster. Or their TV. Or their cell phone.

So who is this for?

auto closing/suspending stale communities stale could be defined as unanswered mod reports, no mod activity (no post, comment, login in x time period), no posts

No. I’ve seen several times people ask the admins if they could take over a community. And it happened. Thus reviving dead communities.

staggered new account permissions: wait 24h before commenting, wait 7 days before posting.

Why?

allow community users to flag posts or comments as NSFW.

This one I like.

Voting changes from up, down to up, down or NSFW.

That’s not how it should be done though. The same menu that you pull out that lets you report things to a mod, instead of reporting to mod, it should let you report as NSFW. If a mod approves the request, it then becomes labeled as NSFW.

This is the backpack

I’m also a big tech guy

Well you’ll be happy to know that we don’t body shame here.

We will however relentlessly mock you if you use Windows 11.

Look man…I hate AI too…but you can’t just use it as a scapegoat to cover for humans being humans.

Should the AI be telling him to do more and more drugs until he died? Well, no, but also…maybe don’t do dangerous drugs at all.

Like if chatgpt says to shoot yourself in the face, and you do, is it chatgpt’s fault you killed yourself? Or was it you killing yourself at fault for killing you?

This world is getting dumber and dumber.

Wait…I’m gay? Shit. I had no idea! Well this explains why women won’t date me…it doesn’t explain why I can’t poop some mornings…

It’s not your lawn. It’s Bobs lawn. Monkeys can’t own property!

I signed up for friendica, after 2 decades of having never used facebook.

It’s blank, and I don’t know what I’m supposed to do.

I can’t comment on what the facebook experience is, but I imagine they don’t just dump you onto a blank white page, with zero explaination.

Note that I am NOT defending or endorsing facebook. I’m just saying the decentralized services have work to do before they can fully be reccomended.

I also recently signed up for pixelfed. It took 3 days to login the first time. And I’m still not sure what the point of collections is. But I did upload 4 pictures.

Fun fact, Bandcamp was started after this one time, at band camp…someone made a mix tape called “Quickflip Tricks Mix '96”

Can it work on these android retro handhelds?

I don’t use twitter, but the reason people still do is the same reason people still use reddit.

It’s where the people are. Normally this is the part where I use some big exaggerated example of what COULD be happening on twitter and they’d still use it. However, saying “They would still use use it if it catered to pedophiles and nazis” is not only true, because they are, but it’s also the most exaggerated example I can think of.

No matter what twitter does, people will still use them, BECAUSE people use them. Twitter has something like 375million people, while Mastadon has varying reported numbers, but I’m seeing 7million, 10million or 12million depending on who’s talking. That’s still a far cry from 375million.

The hard part is figuring out how many of those 375million are bots.

Damn. Smart lady.

Is she single???

Oh. Right.

I agree, Go Guards!

And you didn’t invite me???

The irony of using Steve Harvey of all people to make your point…

Because you’re already dead on the inside?

Maculley Maculley Culkin Culkin.

Now pronounce GIF. The RIGHT way…
