I didn’t think folks actually care about ads as much as you think. This place is a bubble in that regard.

Nothing to do with ads for me, it’s user tracking.

I agree that AGI is dangerous but I don’t see LLMs as evidence that we’re close to AGI, I think they should be treated as separate issues.

That’s my question too, do they not have a secret ballot in the US? If they do (and I’m pretty sure they do) my advice to OP is to deny who they voted for until they can get to safety, “was just joking about voting Harris” is a perfectly reasonable lie if your safety is threatened, the family would have no proof or way of finding out.

Ironically one of DDG’s early selling points, before they fully jumped on the privacy bandwagon, was that they would filter out results for low-effort content farms (this was pre-LLM stuff).

I had used DDG since almost the beginning and it was one of the things I was originally sold on. It’s difficult to find a source for it now but I did find this: https://web.archive.org/web/20110608072253/https://www.technologyreview.com/blog/post.aspx?bid=377&bpid=25532

Are you (or is anyone here) daily-driving Stract yet? I discovered it a few months ago and thought it was everything I was looking for in a search engine, but also concluded that its search results aren’t up to the standard I can use for now, so I filed it as one to look out for. Would be interested in hearing others’ experiences.

I’ve always maintained it would have been an amazing game without the glitches. In a way I can appreciate it for what it nearly was.

I only browse by subscribed because I don’t subscribe to communities with “memes” and “shitposts”, if a community has too many of them I unsubscribe to them.

For me (UK):

zsh = zed ess aitch

sudo - exactly the same as “pseudo”

ssh = ess ess aitch

I’m not alone in this, it’s only what all of my colleagues say.

Reddit would surely have to ban users from creating new subreddits for certain (previously allowed) topics, or else users would just create an alternative “free” subreddit and everyone would post there, right? This can’t work like something like YouTube Premium originals or else they’re going to have to pay certain popular people to post to the paywalled subs - but nobody uses Reddit to follow individuals.

True, I hoped the next generation wouldn’t make the same mistake…

Downvoted it because OP didn’t specify where in the world they were, therefore nobody can properly give a good answer. Recommending an overseas university is very different to recommending one from their country.

On the scale of Greensleeves, I would suggest Yesterday is today.

Yes that’s right, and I realised I could no longer be a historic game hardware collector with that generation of consoles which killed my main hobby at the time. Years of Nintendo loyalty and, dare I say it, fandom, were betrayed and the Wii itself was just awful.

So Nebula got rid of him (which would seem to coincide with his drop in output)?, Kurzgesagt seems to be doing just fine in comparison.

Nintendo Wii: as a loyal Nintendo purchaser here from the Game & Watch, to the Super Nintendo, N64 and GameCube, but the Nintendo Wii never let me back up my purchased downloaded games in a way I could transfer to another Wii without online access. I get that that’s now standard but it was the first time I was burnt by it.

Good call, never come across one that isn’t a dreadful user experience and I’m confused as hell as to why they’ve become so popular.

Sorry, do you mean the current CEO of Nebula or of YouTube?

Yeah, it’s weird, CGPGrey videos used to be the most must-watch of all YouTube for me and I subscribed to his Patreon at one point. I listened to Hello Internet loyally and I was even unhurt about how it ended. I still think he’s an interesting guy and would follow his stuff again but he doesn’t seem to be doing anything of interest to me any more.

What happened with Standard/Nebula?
