Gigasser,

I wonder if having your own self hosted local llm would be better then?

The anti-AI sentiment in the free software communities is concerning. (lemmy.world)

Whenever AI is mentioned lots of people in the Linux space immediately react negatively. Creators like TheLinuxExperiment on YouTube always feel the need to add a disclaimer that “some people think AI is problematic” or something along those lines if an AI topic is discussed. I get that AI has many problems but at the same...

Gigasser, (edited )

I think most of the hostility is in regards to shilling of certain sites and services. Local self hosted AI is not likely to get as much flack I feel. Another aspect of hate is people generating images and calling it art, which…it is but, it’s the microwave equivalent of art. Such negative sentiments can be remedied by actually doing artistic shit with whatever image they generate, like idk, put the image into Photoshop and maybe editing the image in a way that actually improves it, or using said image as a canvas to be added onto or some other shit.

Edit Addendum: also the negative perception of AI has mostly been engendered by some of its more unpleasant supporters, who think of it as a way to make “irrelevant” certain groups they don’t like, and to take some sorta sick schadenfreude in the “replacement” of these people, which they think may be a way of reducing the power of these people (politically, socially, etc), and that’s kinda fucked up.

Gigasser,

Maybe one day instead of [Insert Search Query] Reddit, it will instead be [Insert Search Query] Lemmy

Edit Addendum: Might be cool if people got their old tech support posts from reddit, ask the question that was asked in a post, and then answer their own post with the answer that they gave that solved the issue.

Gigasser,

Wasn’t homelessness during the great depression roughly at a percentage rate of 1.5% of the nation (upwards of 2 million people)? Are you sure we have a homeless rate not seen since the great depression? As for all the other stuff…yeah that’s pretty bad, especially the income inequality over the decades and decades.

Gigasser,

I mean there’s probably other reasons Iran can’t really help the Palestinians. More practical reasons having to do with logistics, economy, cost, geopolitics, potential consequences/sanctions, etc.

Gigasser,

Ehh tru. I’m just saying, that even if they wanted to help, they’d have their hands tied in other ways too.

Gigasser,

I think a good compromise is to allow for sale for a period of years, and then when it’s no longer making as much profits, for a creator to give permission for it to be ok to be pirated, which basically means that they’ve sorta kinda maybe ceded legal consequences to pirating their work.

Gigasser,

Oh wait it’s not genocide because it doesn’t fit their definition! As if ethnic cleansing is any better than genocide.

Gigasser, (edited )

Might be a good time to arm up(unless you’re mentally ill in a way that will make you hurt yourself or make you hurt others before any actual conflict has begun). Just in case of course.

Edit/Addendum: If you have kids, please get a gun case and please educate them about proper gun safety and how to properly check if there’s any ammunition in chamber, etc. In fact, might as well take a gun safety course yourself.

Gigasser,

I don’t know man, nukes aren’t a risk anyone is willing to take.

Gigasser,

I hope Israel is aware of how ABSOLUTELY FUCKING BAT SHIT INSANE HORRENDOUS this makes them look on the world stage. Like really? The associated press? Well, next might as well fucking raid Reuters as well, fuck it.

Gigasser,

Horrible shit, but might be the right conditions to conduct a study on how use of deep fakes can affect political elections. The results may be rather interesting and perhaps contribute to greater societal awareness of deepfakes, the context in which they are used/when they are used, and perhaps an increase in vigilance against manipulation by deepfakes.

Gigasser,

Tbh, it wasn’t as bad as the picture of that woman with the kinda lopsided eyes lol

Gigasser,

If you guys do want to get into crypto to buy certain…things, though if ill advise it, I’d recommend Monero not stuff like Bitcoin.

Gigasser,

It would be funny if you just started calling it coconut malk instead of milk. Literally just changing the word milk by one letter.

Gigasser,

I mean Accursedfarms of YouTube fame iis trying to get something passed in Australia which might have some effects down the line. Who knows…

Gigasser,

To do that effectively, you’d have to make a popular movement for popular big name YouTubers to move away from YouTube and to some other site. Very hard.

Gigasser,

I just like to think that we’re currently playing the Weimar Germany game. Let Trump win and you’ll have given the Republicans decades of power if not more. They’ve been planning for years to control the government through the supreme court, you think this is the worst they can do?

For those wanting acceleration towards collapse, that’s not guaranteed, and will cause many deaths in the process if it does, and there probably still won’t be any guarantee or high likelihood of some sorta takeover by the proletariat or what have you. Seeing as how most of the militant groups in the US are likely to be right wing, all you’ll have is a right wing take over after a collapse.

Gigasser,

Better to have invested in a Valve Index I feel than get an Oculus. Might be more expensive, but I trust Valve to not completely fuck over their consumers.

Gigasser,

I don’t get why you’re being downvoted, sounds like a localization/price/law thing, like Brazil and the price of consoles and games over there.

Gigasser,

I mean the only issue I can think of with human composting is maybe potential prison diseases if the compost is used to farm food.
