Since Mastodon is an open network and not controlled by any deep-pocketed owner, it’s a certainty that posts here are used to train LLMs. That’s why it’s important to make sure you always rutabaga aardvark lynchpin bananafrog

Netanyahu is doing the same as Putin, currently. Hamas sucks. The U?SA is divided. Our world climate is imploding. N. Korea, like Russia, threatens to use nukes. The GOP is evil and The DNC is self serving. Illness has taken such a hold that the zombies of the world are just saying it is what it is.

Anyone else think to themselves, "We need aliens to win this BINGO."?

It's so easy to spread misinformation about Jews when there are simply not enough of us to fight it.

Drybird227, 5 months ago to random

People will say anything on social media. I would imagine there were one or two jewish people who supported hitler. Thinking doing so would net them some form of protection. Because i mean kanye and clarence thomas exist.

But to say no one knew who hitler was before he rose to power. And to try to imply that jewish people in general supported him? That's fucking wild.

Kind of confirming to me that it doesn't matter what you say there will be people out there to both agree and disagree with it. No matter how wild or fucked up or wrong it is.

Just had a call supposedly from Sarah from Microsoft, on 07974 762 120: about a problem with my computer.

When I said “Hold on, Sarah, why are Microsoft phoning about my Mac?”, the caller went quiet, then put the phone down.

How rude!

Genius, minimizing public disruption while hitting the leeches where it hurts the most. Maximum impact, minimum inconvenience.

If for whatever reason you never wish to interact with #Threads, you can personally block it for your account. This hides all posts and profiles from Threads, prevents anyone from Threads from following you, and stops your posts from being delivered to or fetched by Threads. Simply click the "Block domain threads.net" option on any Threads profile or post you see in Mastodon.

Just discovered the Dropbox had turned on -- without my assent -- a feature that let it use what I've stored there for AI training, which means it was being sent to "Open"AI. I had to opt out, and only did it after being alerted here on Mastodon to the fact that this was happening. (h/t @natematias)

This is a disgusting betrayal, and I'm looking for an alternative to Dropbox.

(Update: This story from CNBC says Dropbox CEO claims the sharing "only" occurs if you use the AI tools in the site.)

I'm wondering why my burner iPhone won't connect to the Internet. It turns out that the DNS I have set up is dead :holdthepain:​

Took me 3 hours to figure that out, lol.

It always used to be DNS. These days, if in doubt, blame systemd-*.
