My biggest pet peeve is that they sell you a service, at a certain speed, that you can only use for like 50 hours a month…

This 🔝

Berlusconi had a similar political appeal. After he exited politics, his party went to the biggest in Italy to insignificant.

It will be really difficult for someone to pick up the Republican Party and run with the same platform as DJT. Many have tried it (e.g. de santis) but none is able to have the same success.

The HOA would like to have a talk about the height of your grass and the color of the planters in front of your house.

I assume that 80% of the users are on one or two instances. Maybe the operators of those instances could sell it to a big publishing company, like Condé Nast or something. That way it will be easier to vertically integrate advertisement between traditional print media, online publications, and less formal online gathering places. It’s a win win at the end. The original operators get their bag, and the community keeps going while being supported by a successful business.

These models are mad libs machines. They just decide on the next word based on input and training. As such, there isn’t a solution to stopping hallucinations.

Good old Italian racists would agree with this assessment nowadays.

Proton is just a company and would always give in to legal requests and all other companies and any email provider would do the same

It’s amazing how people easily forget about lavabit and what a company that is committed to real privacy is about.

If we want to believe the evil alien theory, viruses might actually fit the bill better than plants, with fungi as a possible unlikely second.

Let’s hope they move to Paizo and join the work on pathfinder 2.5.

This is going to be like the self checkout lanes at the store but for creative jobs.

At the end of the day, a company will be able to produce the same output with fewer people. Some stuff will be of lower quality, just like sometimes people spend time on Lemmy and then phone in some crappy work.

If you are a history buff, read up on the aventine secession on Wikipedia.

The TL;DR is that in 1924 Giacomo Matteotti, a member of the house of representative who was outspoken against Mussolini, was killed and no charges were brought forward. That even is what transition Italy from a semi-working democracy to a one-party dictatorship.
