If you want it to really use a lot of energy on receiving your gratitude, sure I guess^^

Probably not a flash drive but you can get decent mileage out of 7b models that run on any old laptop for tasks like text generation, shortening or summarizing.

Response Type is decided by ChatGPTs new routing function based on your input. So yeah. Asking it to “think long and hard”, which I have seen people advocating for to get better results recently, will trigger the thinking model and waste more resources.

Don’t threaten, just do it. Enshittification must end.

The only reason we have mainstream paid video streaming now is because early Netflix was genuinely better than dodgy, pop-up riddled mirrors on movie4k.to. The convenience was well worth 8 bucks a month. Same for Spotify.

Fast forward 10 years and Spotify wants me to pay 15 €, scan my face and listen to forced podcast ads AND pay extra for paywalled audiobooks that used to be free? Meet my good old friend youtube-downloader, then.

Sure, keep inflating that bubble

I and at least two other people once called robots “tin cans” on social media. Can mashable turn that into a “news story”, too?

Nothing I say has anything to do with who shows up, but who the organizers target and attract. As I said above, Earth Day had diverse attendee groups but one clear framing. As did, seemingly, your protest. Congrats!

Clear example, if you look at just this year’s mass protests by 50501/indivisible in the US, for “Hands-Off” they had a plethora of defined goals ranging from foreign policy over trans rights to social policy. Meanwhile “No Kings” was just vaguely positioned against autocracy and Trump’s regime in general. “Hands-Off” had a global turnout estimated between “hundreds of thousands” according to international press and “three to five million” according to the organizers, while “No Kings” reached over 5 million in the US alone according to independent census.

And this is just the ones from the US that made their way over here, I could give you a dozen more crass examples of protests against the extreme right in Eastern Germany that don’t even manifest because the organizers can’t agree on where they stand on the Gaza conflict - which of course has nothing to do with opposing the extreme right.

Thanks! I read a few of their comments, I agree in principle, but saying Occupy Wallstreet failed because antagonizing the 1% isn’t broad enough is a wild take :D

Sure, protests have organizers that do marketing/pr, logistics and the official registrations for the events. Therefore most large and significant protest movements in history are marketed with a sole purpose and can be boiled down to one topic:

Women’s March= women’s rights 1970 Earth Day= environment George Floyd/BLM= police brutality Globally it’s the same, think of Fridays for Future for example.

Sure people went to Earth Day with peace flags or believing whatever but the framing of the event was clear.

No I’m complaining about groups with specific interests framing the entire campaign

Well, yeah. Be general. If I want to sell candy I don’t market it to 11-year-old claustrophobic basketball players, I market it to kids.

Every specificity that is added to the movement’s message scares away potential supporters that can no longer identify. This is global though. Every fringe group wants to add their message to the masthead of every protest. The left has had this problem forever.

I’ve always found the idea superficial and frankly vain that planting a rainbow flag in front of your HQ would somehow label you a friend to the queer community. Talk with your actions.

So what’s the agreed-upon purpose of up- and down votes on Lemmy? Because I feel like the news of this clusterfuck of a bad business decision is technews-worthy and doesn’t deserve the downvotes.

This has become one of the major incentives of the scheme for staff; transferring to GendBuntu from a proprietary system means the staff member receives a new computer with a widescreen monitor.

Smart! What I wouldn’t do for new equipment…

Yes, there you go! Good job, USA!

And you already know they’re gonna autogenerate audio-ads and product placements in these summaries as soon as people start using them.

Great, now that 50% of a video can be a direct call for genocide, does that at LEAST mean I can use ONE instance of a “bad” word or speak of “icky” things like death and drug abuse without being demonized?

Yeah, that must be it

“No Kings” and it’s framing sound less tame and vague than “Hands Off” did, so here’s hoping.

Why is this NSFW?
