I don't mean this as a broad category of AI defense, but this doesn't seem much worse than a bad Photoshop job, which is perfectly reasonable standard for a shitty image macro that conveys a funny point.

I agree. I don't know the origin of the term, and whether or not this is all great post rationalization or if it was intended from the start, but these are exactly the reasons I think it's a very good analogy.

The sad truth is that today traditional search engines have been run into the ground by SEO, and some how chatbots backed by LLMs are producing what Google used to call the "I'm feeling Lucky" button. It used to just automatically take you to the first result for your query which was usually what you wanted.

There is definitely a lot of work and improvement in this area needed. It's frustrating to see them pouring resources into other parts of the ecosystem that I don't use, but my hope is that brings in enough users to help increase functionality across the whole ecosystem over time.

I've wanted to try this for quite some time. Always struggled getting started. Any tips or pointers for getting a minimal setup working?

Now I'm even more bummed out it didn't survive. Still a good thought experiment.

I've done it, and it's really marvelous. Once there, a car really is necessary to get around because the park is huge and everything is very spread out.

I'm not saying its a great year to study, but a lot of people had already moved on by 2021.

This used to be more true than it is now. More centers are requiring folks to enter through the main entrance and scan a membership card to enter.

Not all locations, but more are moving this direction. The two nearest me did within the last year.

For all of the attention in the early days about Lemmy being rust based and thus focused on performance, the database seems to be the main bottleneck neck and from anecdotal monitoring of the other admins complaints I'd say that seems true.

Seems like some design issues lead to heavy database usage and its going to be really hard to optimize away from that.

I don't really have a better idea, just acknowledging even a small instance has to scale disproportionally to its size when the rest of the network grows and that's heavy on the database specifically.

Felt the same way, and when I had time and thoughts to post the server was down. Glad to see it back up with an upgrade.

I thought it was the tracker for the torrent downloads and I was like can't we just create magnet links?

Result tracking for the isos makes more sense.
