gzrrt,

If you're not Taiwanese yourself (i.e., one of the people who's actually affected by what happens there), I definitely don't care about your opinion on this topic.

gzrrt,

Hey! Total non sequitur, but noticed you're a 'Brooklyn man' and I'm trying to help get https://lemmy.ml/c/nyc off the ground- seems like there's almost zero local content on Lemmy so far. Feel free to post as as much content as you want there, so there's at least some semblance of activity for when the shit hits the fan next month (in terms of Reddit's API)

gzrrt,

Just joined, thanks! 👍

Where's the feel of the old Internet gone, and what sites do you use?

Hey all. Since the Internet has just been boiled down to the main big social media sites, it feels like the magic is gone. Whens the last time someone said to you "hey check out this cool website"? It's always the same: TikTok, Twitter, Instagram, FB, Reddit, Discord. Forums are basically dead. Chat rooms are dead. Message...

gzrrt,

I use the best search engine on the internet: https://search.marginalia.nu/

The 'random' page is especially good to start off with.

gzrrt, (edited )

Really unclear what any of this platform's alleged benefits are over twitter, etc.

edit: sorry, 'platform' is a serious misnomer. An OS is a platform- this is just yet another attention-sucking mobile app.

gzrrt,

Yeah, pretty much (GPT-4’s a big upgrade over the default 3.5).

That said, OpenAssistant is already really impressive for a project with such limited resources. Would love to see open-source overtake OpenAI quickly (which IMO isn’t out of the question, considering how quickly Stable Diffusion developed)

gzrrt,

These things generate text in response to user input. Just another (pretty cool and useful IMO) tool we can use, and will probably destroy the world to the same extent as calculators, general purpose PCs, etc.

I guess the difference with those things is that we already have plenty of open-source implementations of them, so there's no way to scare the public or the US government into locking the tech behind some kind of corporate monopoly.

gzrrt,

Know if there's any way to block entire servers when they're as toxic and low-quality as the one you mentioned? So far it seems like the only way is to browse 'all communities' and get rid of them one by one
