Holy cow that’s a very real danger I hadn’t thought of! The industry needs a new trend to reuse all this capacity they built, because AI will likely scale back as many startups fail to reach profit.
Renting your home computer might be the next trend, and it could be gratis at first so people get used to it. Why spy on users when you can actually own their computers?


So the companies should not be trying to hide their use of AI, right? It’s a disclosure, not a penalty.


I’d guess the one which seems that it will last more, since you can subscribe to communities of any other instance. You’ll only see a difference if you browse only local posts.
In my case I chose infosec.pub because I want to browse it locally if I want, but my subscribed communities include memes and webcomics for some light time wasters.


Was going to quote just that, from the same article:
‘Ozempic face’ isn’t a side effect of the medication itself. Rather, it’s a side effect of the rapid weight loss the medication can bring.
Oh wait, I did anyway.


May be both, but universally, actions speak louder than words.


Kububtu was also rough around the edges even until 22.04 LTS, but 24.04 LTS finally delivered a stable, far more customizable desktop than regular Ubuntu.
I’m eager to try 26.04 LTS next year.


Let’s say it’s a double-edged sword. It brings freedom, but encourages insulation and intolerance.


This is a disadvantage of the Fediverse: the owner of the instance dictates the rules, and the moderators are as prone to power trips as they are on Reddit.
Be glad you were banned from blahaj, it’s in the top instances of intolerance to group think defiance. If you manage to get unbanned, you’ll be always at risk of another impulsive ban.
Real life is hard enough to add gratuitous drama to it.


I think you’d just make Uber Helicopter start sooner.

But real answer? Those cars would be removed promptly, unless people are ready to fight the police, the civil guard, or the army… or have a good reason to think one of those would support them.


Reddit has become a profit-driven cesspool, even more that it was before their IPO and the LLM craze.
It is still home to great communities, so don’t drink from the firehouse, google Reddit+interest and only visit those communities. Subscribe if they match what you need. Ignore the main feed, it’s a perennial garbage dump.


Okay, it’s superstition, of which religion is a variant. There’s a very thin line between having faith in the supernatural and worship.


Yup. Believing in higher beings from other dimension is just religion with different words. Only when the belief is based on fact and not faith can it not be religion.
Ubuntu LTS? It can still have rough edges depending on your hardware, but solve them and you got five years of peace.


Okay Beavis, Butthead, nap time!


What’s a few billion to a TRILLION company? That’s peanuts. Everything is fine fellow citizen.


We’re still talking about dancing, right?
This meme template never gets old for me.
