Look at all of the related “risks” and add them up. I’m sure that drowning is a small number, but then add in all of the deaths from scalding, acid rain, poisons (that contain water), etc etc and it eventually gets to be a very big number. Probably in the millions
That’s not entirely true- you can upload your own, but you can only seed to users that do have port forwarding. On many trackers, that initial seed is all going to seed boxes with an autograb script enabled anyway, and those do have port forwarding.
Before you do this, you have to decide your strategy. A lawyer - any lawyer - will tell you not to talk to the press while the matter is going through the courts.
This isn’t just a matter of law, but of technology. Part of the point of these large language models is the massive corpus of raw data. It’s not supposed to mimic a specific person or work, but rather imitate ALL of them. Ideally, you wouldn’t even be able to pinpoint anyone or anything in particular.
(If you’re asking about a different type of AI, then disregard)
True, but getting quiet puts a point on exactly how personal their question was.
Another good one is to horrify them- get quiet and uncomfortable, and say something about how the doctors think you’re infertile.
Assuming these are people you just met, of course.
I think every city/location sub is like this. It’s the only one not governed by interest, but of location.
I’m trying to seed my own, but it’s a Sisyphean task. And I know the only way to really get it going is to mention Lemmy IRL.
It’s not a drop-in replacement by any means. It lacks all sorts of features, details, and community that I lost last month.
However, it does (mostly) hold the same place in my life. And having said that, I realize how pointless it really is if none of that really matters
This should speed up the admins’ search for replacements they keep promising!
It’s because of the very impassioned speech by then-Senator Ted “Tubes” Stevens, where he demonstrated that he clearly had no idea how any of it worked. You could hear the lobbyists in every bit that he parroted, without absorbing it. He also had formed a strong opinion already, despite clearly having just been told how it works.
It’s not that it’s a bad analogy. It’s that it’s (somewhat) reductionist, and most famously associated with an idiot.
That’s pretty likely, given how many have left in the past year, and it’s possibly a very big problem for Meta. Apple in their early days infamously asked candidates if they were “virgins”. It was not (as Hollywood likes to portray) about their sexual history, but whether they had ever touched or seen IBM’s proprietary code. Apple needed to do a clean-room development and implementation of the same thing. They knew IBM would sic the lawyers on them, and they had to prove they did it using nothing but publicly available info.
The article has absolutely no detail on what these trade secrets might be, or if they will be upheld in court, so we can only speculate. But if these really are trade secrets, and Meta poached them, then we could be talking serious damages or even an injunction.
But knowing the courts, this won’t actually be decided for years and it won’t even matter by then
Nah, coffee pots are strictly clients in the world of tomorrow. They connect to a (datamining) cloud service, and you control it through an app.
What’s wild is that IPoAC was actually tested, and shown to have a higher throughput than the local ISP. Source
In most communities, old content isn’t helpful. It doesn’t start any conversations, and people don’t look at the old stuff.
Stuff like porn, pics, aww, or other subs where the conversation wasn’t the point are an exception.
Use lemmyverse.net to find communities across all instances. It will make you search a lot easier, and show you when a community exists on multiple instances
What’s interesting about this is that there really isn’t an r/All. All@lemmy.world will be different from All@beehaw.org, will be different from All@lemmy.ml, and will be VERY different from All@lemmynsfw.com
There are plenty of people that do this, and it seems to be pretty straightforward.
There is a significant risk going forward though- if the undesirables (the ones that currently get larger instances defederated) start doing this in any major way, then the larger instances will block new federation or smaller instances by default. Starting now is actually probably a good move, since you might be grandfathered in when that occurs.
Also, be aware of local laws regarding content you host. You could be liable for illegal content you inadvertantly receive.
I’m intrigued by their endgame. Teamsters are well-known to follow through on their threat to strike. Unemployment is low, so it’s unlikely that many members will be scabs. There’s no way to contract out any significant portion of the missing labor. When the strike happens, UPS will be hemorrhaging money.
What am I missing? It seems labor has management by the balls, but they aren’t acting like it.
There are many communities on Reddit that I will miss. The best people do not have the technical skills, patience, or desire to move to Lemmy, and there has been no clear direction on where they will go even if they do leave Reddit.
r/Piracy is not one of them. I firmly believe that all of the best people are already here. According to Lemmyverse, this place already has 22k+ subscribers, 2k+ active users this week, 500+posts, and over 10k comments. By any measure, it’s one of the biggest communities in the fediverse.
Let them keep Reddit.
While being decentralized certainly creates a barrier, most of the details behind PageRank (and the other algorithms in use by Google) are pretty well documented. If it doesn’t already, throwing in Lemmy as a keyword should soon bring up a Lemmy intense (probably Lemmy.ml or Lemmy.World) as a top result. As people click those links, the results will go higher.
The bigger challenge is that the content you are trying to find isn’t here yet. Those results on the old site were built over years of massive user engagement. Lemmy has barely had a month since people started joining en masse, and it’s still a fraction of what we lost.
TL;DR: Just keep using it and spread the word. The rest will happen naturally
