Does it count as "a human" if it's a bot reposting human-made content for the 50th time?

I know he's just selling the platform to AI companies, but it's an odd take considering they've been moving away from being a message board and towards being just another content feed for years now.

This is pretty fucked up, OP

The top finger kinda gives it away imo

I am a happy /c/fuckai subscriber and I am still comfortable admitting that image generators can be great for memes and quick jokes.

Fedora Kinoite.

KDE Plasma (very Windows-ey) and it is "immutable" which means you can't break it.

Someone else said Kubuntu which aesthetically will look the same and is also a good choice but if you want to start with a "just works" I recommend an immutable distro.

Wow, it (1.3mb) can fit on a single 3.5" floppy.

I disagree, AI slop cannot teach anyone that "hate is real". It cannot teach anything, only persuade.

Even without AI- if you are trying to learn about the world, social media is not a reliable place to get information because it will only show you what the algorithm prioritizes. And the algorithm (even if showing real, non-ai, images and videos) is not trying to paint a cohesive and accurate version of events.

 

Been watching DS9 Season two and have been very impressed with the quality. I remembered it being "pretty good" but in my memory it was "the season with "The Circle" trilogy, "Melora", "Rivals" and "The Maquis", episodes and story lines that never really did it for me. I think that made me forget how many really good one-off episodes were also here, to name a few:

  • "Necessary Evil"
  • "Rules of Acquisition"
  • "The Alternate"
  • "Armageddon Game"
  • "Whispers"
  • "Paradise"
  • "Shadowplay"

All bangers!

Also I love how this season ever so slowly drip-drops dominion references culminating with the season finale "The Jem Hadar"

Someone should probably jump in and explain what federation means.

 

I have an aging Kindle and am looking for a new eReader to both read books and articles I've saved throughout the day. I use Wallabag to save articles. I like it over Pocket because it's better for paywalls because it fetches content directly from the browser.

I am leaning Kobo because of apps like Wallabako and KoReader (not exactly what that is yet but people seem to like it).

Anyone else have a similar setup or have any advice?

 

Note that r/coolguides is a very "normie" subreddit and may require extra handholding. There are a lot of people who don't seem to understand what "open source" means. Some looking for "The Lemmy app" etc. Be patient and helpful!
