And twitter. And mastodon. And lemmy ffs, we’re not immune. (I’m doing it right now, in fact.)

Because as a society we’ve forgotten how to throw bricks at bad people

Of course you understand some dog barks, you just don’t think about it because humans process language innately, we have specialized brain structures for it.

I’ll bet you can recognize “I see a threat” and 'I’m in pain" when you hear them. Maybe even distinguish them from “happy excitement”

This thing’s been around since the 70’s. I think any generation would recognize it.

Literally still better than what he actually did

why not just let lose of this crippling desire to align ourselves with some historical identity

Fair enough. Counterpoint: It doesn’t freaking matter what word we use. No matter what the word is, the right will attempt to poison it and stir hatred of it and assign meanings to it that aren’t real. Look at what happened to “woke”. It will keep happening, because the modern right is Fascism, and poisoning language is a fascist tactic that goes back to the very beginning. You call yourself an Anarchist; where on Earth do you live that nobody has negative associations with “Anarchist”.

Use whatever word you want, just use it consistently. Don’t expect it to stay free of propaganda, because they do that to our words on purpose.

Not the plant you think, though.

That’s why they call me Dollar Bill. Because I have one.

I’m confused why backups would even matter. Are the servers physically hosted in Mali and the government seized them?

Because if the government just invalidated the domain, that’s completely different. In that case a server device with everything on it still exists in the same place it always did, it’s just DNS that has changed.

(And yes, I understand that losing the domain name and the certs attached to it would be a big deal, but there’s no data loss, hence no need to pull from backups.)

This is exactly how I’m tryna be (I live alone in my house with my dog and my $0.003M fortune)

I think it’s very much like regular ice cream, but a flavor an octopus would eat.

Crab, maybe.

Because they’re bad people, Jan.

Right. Again, though, I don’t recommend having an LLM do that particular chore for you.

I don’t disagree, but most business emails aren’t quite that strict.

Sometimes the only requirement IS to have words on a page. Think about a disaster recovery plan, for example. Now, you probably don’t want an LLM to write your disaster recovery plan, but it’s a perfect example of something where the main value is that you wrote it down, and now you can be certified that you have one.

This is a legitimate use case for LLM, though.

Not everyone can communicate clearly. Not everyone can summarize well. So the panel on the right is great for the people on the other end, who must read your poorly-communicated thoughts.

At the same time, some things must look like you put careful thought and time into your words. Hence, the panel on the left.

And if people on both sides are using the tool to do this, who’s really hurt by that?

makes sense, thanks!

I don’t get this one, what’s the hol up

The Baby War of 2020 touched all aspects of our lives.
