Good morning. I’m forming a new social media company called “Truth Asocial.’ I have no idea what it is, or what it will do, but I’ll figure that out before the IPO.
@shoq A while back there was a site, “Asocial Network,” where you could make an account and… do nothing.
At least unknown jokers have enriched their spam databases with registrants’ emails.
People who protest other people who protest genocides, by saying what about other genocides, maybe don’t know that people who protest genocides in the first place are generally more educated in and interested in protesting all genocides, than people who protest people protesting about genocides.
All it would take for AI to completely collapse is a ruling in the US saying these companies have to licence the content they used to train these tools.
They simply would never reach a sustainable business model if they had to fairly compensate all the people who wrote, drew, edited, sang or just created the content they use.
Simply being forced to respect attribution and licenses would kill them. Will that ruling ever happen? Maybe not. Should it? I think so.
"They seem to have little regard for personnel losses and throw units at the Ukrainian lines in an attempt to exhaust the defenders and find weak spots," added Spurling, the RAND analyst.
@xs4me2 I would hope so, but so far there are no more objective prerequisites than in Nazi Germany or Japan in 1940. It’s a full-fledged fascist zombieland, and the West seems to be waiting for its Pearl Harbor.
Not surprised at all that your free-running "atheist" falls for the same logical fallacies as most gnostics and becomes a raging angry person once you point them out:
@ljrk Quite calm answers to your sophistical provocations and inversions. You can’t even agree on basic terms, there is no subject of conversation to which logic can be applied.
@ljrk I get your point and re-read the context, and tend to agree with your logic and demand for a clearer distinction between gnostic and agnostic atheism. Thanks for the food for thought
'we can assert with a 95% probability that the true number of casualties falls between 40,000 and 55,000. This estimate does not take into account the losses of the #Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR) and #Luhansk People’s Republic (LPR)' https://en.zona.media/article/2023/07/10/stats
@fulelo 20K were detained, fined and released the same night, not jailed for 15 years, as Russian economic emigrants like to spin it, making themselves out to be victims of the regime. And so ended the entire Russian anti-war protest from a nation of 140 million people.
This worries me: Saturday at 14:53 local time, US airforce aircraft WC-135 Constant Phoenix arrived on Crete, Greece.
Why this worries me: WC-135 is the United States' nuclear radiation monitoring airplane.
For weeks Ukraine has warned, Russia has made preparations for blowing up the The Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant by placing explosives at multiple on-site locations. An incident could contaminate both Ukraine and surrounding countries.
Meta is not gonna buy Mastodon or any server, this is based on absolutely nothing and untrue.
Yes, some of us indeed got contacted by Meta/Insta because they are working on a new social platform (this was in the news) and they are looking into joining the Fediverse (Mark Zuckerberg also told this in the recent podcast)
SO.
This contact was about a "heads-up" for a potential big platform to join the network and not for a "take over".
@stux Sounds great. Let's just wait and see what a multibillion-dollar corporate monster headed by a lizard-like glassy-eyed psychopath whose life's work is to manipulate the behavior of the masses can do.
