Fun anti-mod bot conversation on Reddit 🇫🇷 Jesse #1 HEXAGON FAN (@cpluspatch@fedi.cpluspatch.com) (fedi.cpluspatch.com)

Apparently someone got into a debate with a bot in Reddit. Maybe it's not a surprise that the bot was anti-mod, pro-Reddit admin. Make sure you scroll down in the comments to see the second screenshot (it's a screenshot.of the same conversation but in dark mode).

maynarkh,

It would help if the article in some way could indicate which part of the world the snail invaded Broward county is.

I imagine it's Australia with megapests and English language, right?

maynarkh,

Well, whether Reddit likes it or not, mods were a department of specialists working on some unique aspects of their business.

That whole department got told to get bent, in essence fired, but they don't even have contracts in place preventing "disgruntled employee" stuff.

This is what happens.

maynarkh,

These stable geniuses just found 10% of the Russian military budget in the seat cushions.

maynarkh,

Sooner or later, we have to realize that these wonderful free things are usually a bubble that eventually pops when they have to start running ads.

Textual data is surprisingly lightweight to host if you keep to core features. Traffic is quite light if you don't bundle half of npm, all the trackers ever and a whole bunch of ads.

A few days ago I saw lemmy.ml publicise the instance specs it was running on, and it was surprisingly sane for the size of the instance.

I myself could easily afford the rent for that instance, and I'm not rich. I've seen bigger (gaming) servers funded by donations from like 12 people. It also has nothing pushing it to produce profit.

Lemmy's fundamentals with regards to tech seem to be great, if not the most feature-rich. It will be fine.

maynarkh,

I wonder why the word 'terror' does not show up in the title.

maynarkh,

I mean he didn't shoot it down, he had it shot down. It's the first A2A kill of the F-22, he could at least acknowledge it.

He's on point with foreign policy for now. Humiliating world leaders is never not good.

maynarkh,

Doesn't matter since they don't and also can't retain control over the network, and the network by and large all defederated lemmygrad.

Lemmy kinda belongs to its users now.

EU member Hungary is not letting diplomats visit Ukrainian prisoners of war transferred from Russia, Ukraine’s Foreign Ministry says (web.archive.org)

The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry, the Coordination Headquarters for the Treatment of Prisoners of War, and other involved bodies of Ukraine continue to take steps towards bringing eleven Ukrainian POWs back home after Hungary had received them from Russia without notifying the Ukrainian government or any international human rights...

maynarkh,

Look, with the state the country is in, it's totally possible they actually lost them, or there is no one to answer the requests. Don't underestimate Hungarian governmental incompetence, especially now that the government is teetering on the edge of bankruptcy.

Though my bet is that they are trying to see what they can get for them, using them as bargaining chips in a quite disgusting way.

maynarkh,

Noice. Open source software growing the federated ecosystem is always good.

maynarkh,

It would actually be an incredibly huge boon for the EU to get Ukraine as a member. It would benefit the EU in unique ways while the challenges Ukraine faces are hardly unique within the EU.

It would benefit both Germany's agenda of making the EU's center move a bit east, and France's desire to gain more geopolitical independence. Ukrainian gas would decrease reliance on US and Russian gas even in the short term as pipelines are by and large built already.

There's the catch though, I think the US' interest in a separate UA from the EU, with both depending on the US for either rebuilding or gas and other raw materials. While we are fighting the war against Russia, we will probably be fighting the peace against the US, and I hope Ukraine will prevail together with the EU.

maynarkh,

I can see them bogging up international waters if they can make it launchable and recoverable by yachts. Imagine Bezos' fleet will finally get an aircraft carrier.

maynarkh,

The awful mental health situation, especially for men explains the rise of radical politics very well.

I hope we can put a lid on "hustle culture" and realize that hurting everyone hurts you while helping everyone would benefit everyone as well.

Just look at how society dominated by corporations handle WFH or people wanting to work less, or just not go through wars and recessions every decade.

maynarkh,

You are not wrong. I mean take one look at the turtle mod and say it's not fucked up.

maynarkh,

Why would this be annoying to streamers? Honest question, I'm not a Twitch user.

Would it be the softcore porn "gamer girls" being called out separately from eg. horror games?

maynarkh,

He says Romanian prosecutors have no evidence and alleged their case is a "political" attack aimed at silencing him.

Does he even know about or have a "side" on Romanian politics, or is this just like a go-to line now? I mean I don't think anyone cares about him on a political level, he's just awful in the general sense.

maynarkh,

I guess the idea is that it's bad at hard factual things, where you would expect a machine to be good at, and good at creativity and emotions, where you would expect humans to be undefeatable.

It's badly phrased though, I agree.

maynarkh,

Confused conservatives fighting LLM bots trained on r/politics groupthink.

maynarkh,

Real programmers cat the data directly from /proc

maynarkh,

For a taste of how Facebook might be able to coopt the fediverse, look at how federated email is mostly controlled by Google and Microsoft.

maynarkh,

Yeah, they can take cheap trips to their home country while being paid in Euros and complaining about the decadence of the culture enabling and tolerating their lifestyle, while they don't tolerate others'.
