Memorizing every little detail of everyone’s lives and actions that day always seemed incredible to me. I assumed he lived that day hundreds of thousands of times. Meaning centuries spent repeating the same day.

At least that’s what I imagine it would take, for me to try countless methods of suicide.

Ruud is Dutch. FediDB says the server is in the US. So maybe we’re talking about two different things.

FediDB says it’s located in US.

I think you’re missing Lemmy.world.
Easily the biggest, and US based.

I wanted to read it. I did.
But seriously! How much work would it take for somone, anyone! Even the writer! Just read over the article once before before pushing the send button!

The very first letter of the very first word (only a two letter word) is wrong.

“Un an interview that’s”

I can’t do it.

They’re about general critic and public sentiment.
And for that, no movie should ever get a perfect 10. No movie could ever get a perfect 10.
They are useful for evaluating a movie’s actual quality. But quality has nothing to do with any individuals enjoyment of a movie.

Rotten Tomato ratings are stupid.
With every review being either a 👍 or 👎, the most simple meh movie that nobody hates (or loves), gets a 100% fresh.

IMDb and Metacritic are much better.

My whole life I’ve heard people say that. It’s as if they don’t realize they’re just tricking themselves.

You can’t actually change when the sun rises or sets. You can only change the arbitrarily chosen number that time is labeled with. You’re still getting up earlier, while telling yourself you didn’t, because the number is the same. If you wanted to get up earlier you could just do that with the normal numbers. It would be exactly the same. The time change doesn’t effect anything real.

I thought that what he literally called it. Public Beta

It’s not a good sign when you have to pay people to use your product.

He voiced the character in the animated Spider-Man Into The Spider-verse

It’s the original instance, run by the main Lemmy creators.

The full range is about 5.5%. So while it is misleading, a 5% drop in a graph that consistent isn’t nothing. Something substantial absolutly changed

You’re conflating free speech of individuals, with engagement driven black box recommendation algorithms of corporations. It’s a common mistake. I think most people make it.

A company can allow people to post things, and for people to see them if they like, without algorithmically pushing it in endless scrolling interfaces.

For example Lemmy and Mastodon. You only see what you choose to subscribe to. The sites don’t chose to push any content into your feed because an algorithm thinks you’ll like it.

There is a big difference between the two.
And removing the algorithms isn’t a hindrance to free speech, only profits.

It’s always surprising to me that people think these harms are limited to kids and teens. These same issues effect everyone of all ages. Even I’ve noticed my attention span has been effected.

The federal ban is for ByteDance not TickTok.
And that’s unrelated to the states filing this law suit.

Is that why Meta is also being sued over the negative mental health effects of Facebook and Instagram?
They too are promoting a non-western narrative?

Will AI soon surpass the human brain?
If you ask employees at OpenAI, Google DeepMind and other large tech companies, it is inevitable.

That doesn’t answer the question.
If it will happen is unrelated to When it will happen.
I’d expect we’ll see AGI some time between the next 20 and 200 years. I think that’s pretty soon. You may not.

Sometimes people do the right thing, for the wrong reason. While not ideal. I’ll accept it.

We’re not talking about individual people, but whole corporations and organizations.

For example. Instance.social is shutting down. Now the whole Org needs to migrate 150 accounts to someplace else. Oh and the old posts are being deleted, can’t migrate those.

And the support community you created on there, is going away also. Again, can’t really migrate all the old posts and comments. But the FAQ documentation we put there when people asked about it, can be manually copied to the new place. So that’s something

That’s not a situation any company would want to be in. Better to have their own social home, that they control.
