Bamboo looks way better than blackberry, I made sure to plant a ton of it in various parts of my yard.

Forgejo is fantastic, better than anything else that I’ve used.

Their search was already trash, this will only make it worse

It was actually in stock a few minutes before 10AM pacific, I was able to snag one at 9:58.

I agree when it comes to most “smart” home devices. However, I wired an ESP32 to my heat pump for remote control and automation, which has been absolutely fantastic. Also, I use a ton of ZigBee and zwave, since those are not “smart” by themselves and are local-only.

It’s the cloud bullshit that always breaks and spies on users that I hate.

Yep, it’s classic. They might as well be a bot, their behavior is very predicitible. It’s not even worth ever replying to them, they use canned responses and never change their behavior for the better.

Oh, and they always make sure to downvote anyone calling them out, naturally. Luckily I can’t see them as my instance disables downvotes, but I’m sure my comment has at least one downvote (and it’ll be from them).

Oh look, it’s like the 13th cm0002 spam account that I’m blocking, no exaggeration. I thought I got them all, especially because cm0002 claimed elsewhere that they would only use “a few” to repost and has told several users just that. They make it impossible to block their accounts on purpose. They don’t ban evade, they block evade, and when confronted give some line about “promoting smaller instances”, even though they never post to their account’s home instance.

And before they reply with their bs about only reposting .ML content, they repost shit from all instances. If they truly cared only about reposting .ML content, they wouldn’t need almost two dozen accounts to do so.

This is the sixth time this has been posted somewhere on the fediverse, and yet, cm0002 posted it again.

Maybe, but I think it’s important to note that LLMs can hallucinate web results just the same. You can give them a specific web page and they’ll sometimes spit out things that don’t exist on the page, especially if you’re doing it to correct a mistake the model made.

Nebula is great.

Yeah, made me cry - a very emotional moment

I too wasted my click

Nicotine vaping is what this study focuses on. I wonder if the cannabis vapes are better.

Yeah, that’s definitely part of it, I think. That, combined with OpenAI’s inability to make an actual ROI just made it a non-starter. I hope to see more of this in the future.

You can find their list of accounts by searching. They didn’t need to provide it, and last time they did something like that, they ended up using more accounts than they claimed. I’m not going to unblock someone like that, especially not just to see more content from them that I’m actively trying to avoid.

Well, as I said in another comment below, I didn’t start with just blocking them. They don’t just do it to me, they do it to anyone who disagrees with their behavior. I’ve seen them be snarky to others, I’ve seen them just downvote and not say anything. They do both. I just block them immediately now because they’re not worth arguing with - they won’t ever change, so why would I bother?

My problem isn’t reposts from ML, that’s their go-to response but they repost everything from everywhere. My problem is their dozens of accounts. Why can’t they just use one account so other users like me can just block them? They’re evading people’s blocks under the guise of “promoting instances”, even though I guarantee the vast majority of users don’t even know the post is from cm0002, let alone pay enough attention to read what instance the cm0002 account is on.

If I don’t trust NDT on this subject, why would I trust his podcast guests?

NDT isn’t very credible, and also deep learning models aren’t capable of what you’re describing in any normal “human” sense.

This is the eleventh cm0002 account that I am blocking (I’m not joking, to be clear). This is at least the fourth time this has been posted to the threadiverse, and yet, cm0002 thought we needed to see this again. Some of their reposts have been posted over seven times before they got around to adding to the spam.

They have dozens of accounts that they rotate between so that you cannot block their spam. They do not care about your own availability to clean your feed up, you must see “their” posts (for whatever reason).

Also, cm0002 downvotes anyone that complains about their behavior, usually with no comment or response. They do not care.

In the PNW, it’s difficult to get sunny days for large parts of the winter. Plus, the sun in December is only up for like 5 or 6 hours, so if you have an indoor job, it’s likely that you’ll go to it when the sun is down and leave when it’s already dark.

Yes, exploding trees are real. The sap in them freezing is what causes them to explode, although maybe the confusion is that people expect a fireball or smoke when something explodes? I don’t know, but I’ve seen a lot of people saying it’s an urban legend even though it’s real.

Also, yes, fuck this guy. If we were getting paid, we’d be filthy rich.
