Democrats could have more shutdown leverage than people realize in c/politics@lemmy.world

Hmm, stepping on rakes is about the only leverage I've seen US Democrats use. The world would be happily surprised if they did otherwise.

Agentic LLMs are not a good idea. So I guess we'll be hastily jumping into this boat as well.

Seriously, human generated data is what AI is trained on--this should come as a no-brainer.

New Arizona law to restrict online porn access; Pornhub will block state in c/privacy@programming.dev
[–] WhyDoYouPersist@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

On one hand yes, of course. But on the other, to drive people to use yet another (oftentimes) subscription service, it's seems like a Pro Capitalist move for another grift avenue.

I feel like the more small shit they penalize their citizens for, the more just doing large shit makes sense.

[Feature Request] Preview (peek) media posts by pressing and holding, then closing upon releasing (lemmy.world)
 

As a user coming from Sync, Summit has been great so far. One thing I'm missing is when peeking media posts (Sync terminology), I'm used to pressing on the media and having it come up as an overlay. When I release, it closes.

Unless I'm missing something, the current media preview functionality in Summit loads the media into a new window after a long press, with options for sharing, etc., underneath. And I have to hit Back to return to my feed.

I would love an option where I can use press and hold with overlayed media instead, that will just go away once I'm done viewing by releasing my finger.

Many thanks for considering!

Sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell not welcome in cushy Texas prison camp, says inmate in c/news@endlesstalk.org

Howell also warned that Maxwell could be a flight risk, given how she evaded the authorities for months before her arrest: “This is a camp you can literally walk out of.

She'll be getting her steps in, I imagine.
