This is my favorite part of the old web.

I’m still playing Diablo II

Yeah, that’s why I brought it up, Meta is kind of a shit company.

No, mostly just regular posts, meta just decided that being trans is “political”.

I have seen trans creators in IG reporting that they are being filtered by this setting, so that’s not great.

You don’t even need to leave .world, you can subscribe to communities on other instances.

This time it might actually be a coincidence, someone at the political bureau tried to pick the closest number to 100 that wouldn’t look made up, 73 they were promptly excited for sedition my their boss who added 3 to the number and routed it to his boss,. Repeat the process 5 times and there you go “88”.

It’s a great book if you can get past that to the first line of the book.

“We are all susceptible to the pull of viral ideas. Like mass hysteria. Or a tune that gets into your head that you keep humming all day until you spread it to someone else. Jokes. Urban legends. Crackpot religions. Marxism. No matter how smart we get, there is always this deep irrational part that makes us potential hosts for self-replicating information.” ― Neal Stephenson, Snow Crash

I’m going to assume that Women was supposed to be in Italics.

Yes very human readable. All the “benefits” blockchain are in a properly managed database, but the database takes about the power of 3 or 4 lightbulbs to manage, the Blockchain takes as much power as Ireland.

AGI Artificial General Intelligence doesn’t exist that is what people think of in sci-fi like Data or Hal. LLM or Large Language Models like CHAT GPT are the hallucinating chat bots, they are just more convincing than the previous generations. There are lots of other AI models that have been used for years to solve large data problems.

Never get involved in a land war in Asia, never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line, and never fuck with AMERICA’S BOATS!

NFTs aren’t the solution to this, public read access to the database is.

A LLM is terrible for molecular analysis, AI can be used but not LLM.

So does English, in Russian Putin’s name is Путин.

Not the guillotine news I was expecting in 2024, but I’ll take it.

They never talk about how the allies evaded detection by the German’s satellite network, comprehensive radar imaging, and observers with access to a global information network that can send messages any ware in the world in fractions of a second.
