Is it really self-hosting if someone else controls the data and software?

You shouldn’t expect anything else from the Torygraph, it’s all nostalgia bait and hate mongering to comfort their snobby readership (and to prop up his links to fossil fuel companies).

Though this content could flourish in pockets of the fediverse, the scary scenario of prevalent child sexual abuse material is not the case. There are many moderation tools, including shared blocklists, that prevent it. However, the idea that the fediverse is full of harmful content was used by Elon Musk to justify his anti-competitive decision to block links from X to Mastodon.

Didn’t he unban someone who posted one of the worst CSAM videos known?

At this point they should just hire the Heroic devs, I doubt anything they could build themselves would compare in terms of quality.

You should be a Luddite because they were right. My point wasn’t that we should embrace AI (trust me, I’m one of its most dedicated haters), but that just because technology produces lower quality goods doesn’t mean it won’t catch on. It’s going to take more than jeering mockery to stop capitalist embracing something that lets them deskill workers.

I’m about half way through Blood in the Machine by Brian Merchant, a book about the Luddites, and one of the things he’s emphasised quite a lot is the complaints of people at the time about the lower quality of automated textiles compared to artisan-made ones.

I haven’t actually played WoT since they added tier 8-10 light tanks, but god did I sink a lot of my teenage years into it. I have been really craving it lately, but I know better than to go back to it.

World of Tanks, which is pretty funny considering the image.

gtk2 is gone 🦀🦀🦀

Doesn’t matter if they do, Lemmy cuts off the connection after streaming the number of bytes it wants.

Cigarettes cost about twice that here, like 70p each.

The cigarette giver. Those things are expensive.

A cig for a chicken nugget is a terrible deal.

“Although we are still assessing the impact, but overall, I don’t think it has any significant impact to our business and to our future performance,” Yang said. “So many other countries that have that kind of policies like Brazil and India. So actually it’s not a disadvantage, but probably an advantage for Lenovo.”

Yang went on to say that because of Lenovo’s global manufacturing footprint with facilities in several countries including the U.S., the company is more resilient and flexible allowing it to adapt to different scenarios.

[The report] also said discussion of intergenerational fairness tended to “pit younger and older generations against each other in a perceived fight for limited resources”.

Good take. Remember, the real divide is class not generation.

I’ve seen it mostly touted as an alternative to Substack.

You’re probably getting downvoted (I didn’t just fyi) because it wasn’t really relevant to the discussion. No one’s disputing if cannibalism is natural, I was just trying to point out that killing and eating children is natural and yet still morally wrong to do.

Killing and eating your children has been observed among a great many species, particularly reptiles and mammals.

What where we talking about again?

There are plenty of things that are ‘natural’ that are wrong to do, why is eating meat any different?
