TSMC equipment only has the materials to function for about two weeks before needing a shipment of replacement parts for the fabs when they wear out.
why would you take anything you see on the internet seriously?

It’s human nature!
Lemmy has a serious sourcing issue, just across the board.
If somebody can’t moderate their instance in any kind of way that’s impacting other parts of the federation, it makes sense to defederate until they fix their problems.
I don’t think anybody should have open signups. It’s literally just an invitation to mess with the rest of us who are federated with the instance.
Lemmy sucks at sourcing but rocks at being opinionated.
I don’t understand why you needed a whole new server to discuss the NBA when not only does every single instance have duplicate communities for the teams, but also fanaticus.social already holds the top dedicated spot for sports content aggregation.
I love that the federation allows this, but I don’t get why we need to endlessly keep spinning up more instances that already have way too many spaces trying to discuss the same stuff.
It’s also only valuable if people keep contributing to it. It’s highly likely the majority of current existing reddit data has been largely incorporated into many LLMs prior to the API access limiting. Google paying them 60 million dollars is a hilarious pittance to keep training their LLMs, given how much money AI services will likely generate off of the training data.
I don’t actively use reddit anymore, but when I need an answer to something that isn’t programming-related, it’s usually the top source on any given web search. That kind of content is basically the only stuff I would give a shit about. I can’t imagine how much absolute garbage you have to sift through on the platform to get reliable training data. Maybe the ratio is terrible and that’s why Google paid so little.
Actually part of their IPO paperwork lists WSB as a potential positive benefit to the stock, in terms of having a clear userbase that will theoretically help sustain the value through shenanigans. That, to me, however, sounds like a securities violation waiting to happen.
I don’t check reddit anymore. Does WSB actually consider this stock to be, uh, actually valuable? Every corner of the internet I’ve seen discuss this topic have all noted how worthless they think the shares are going to be. My money is on them shorting it.
I think it has to do with karma count.
I had two accounts, one had been scrubbed and was mostly used for commenting, and the other was a porn alt.
The porn alt has hundreds of thousands of karma and it got multiple IPO messages while the original, older account got nothing due to being sub 5k on posts.
Edit: Suspicions confirmed!
Reddit is planning six tiers of early access based on each “participant’s contributions to Reddit,” the company said in its updated SEC filing. Those tiers are based on a user’s “karma” score, ostensibly an aggregate total of up/down votes on posts and comments.
The first tier of users will be those “who have meaningfully contributed to Reddit community programs,” though what that means isn’t explained more clearly. After that come tier 2 users, who must hold at least 200,000 karma points or have taken at least 5,000 moderator actions. Tier three includes users and moderators who hold at least 100,000 karma points and have taken 2,500 moderator actions. Tiers 4 and 5 are each half of the previous tier’s total, and tier 6 includes everyone else, with a waitlist available if the total number of shares purchased exceeds the original 1.76 million.
“Our company doesn’t make money, it also is projected to not be able to continue to make money. We’ve attempted multiple ways of monetizing the userbase, all of which has not recouped costs. We value ourselves at 6.4 billion dollars.”
lol, she said.
lmao.
If the American car companies focused on their own viability they wouldn’t have this problem. Instead they focused on making the electrification process a premium luxury while the Chinese made it as affordable as possible.
The way federation works is that everything is replicated across all federated servers. If an admin team does not want to have to moderate specific kinds of content or users who are deemed detrimental (but not necessarily illegal) they have the ability and right to defederate.
Also, I’ve blocked servers but it doesn’t block users. Defederation does though.
I wish everything was a bit more standardized between kbin/mbin/Lemmy. It feels like we have these forks of the project that do different things because they emulate different behaviors of other sites, and reaching parity seems difficult without a lot of developer discussion.
I like a few things about kbin but for a while it was the instance causing the most spam on my feed because federated mod actions broke and spam cleaned up locally would not get cleaned on other instances. I saw Ernest back posting again so I guess development has resumed and some of those issues have been banged out.
But it doesn’t bootstrap conversation properly, because some OP on an entire other website is asking for help, and we’re talking to brick walls.
Lemmy is more helpful for Linux help than reddit is anyways, because on reddit they’ll tell you to fuck off and search, while on Lemmy I can still get hands-on support with a willing community.
That’s the problem with federation though, you have 20 servers with 20 communities of the same thing, and there’s not many people redirecting and curating, because everybody wants to be a powermod. When we had the reddit migration it started a chain reaction nightmare of creating an infinite number of dead, useless, redundant communities. I like to use sports as a good example. Fanaticus.social is designed to be the premiere sports instance, yet all the local instances, like .ca or midwest.social, also will have their requisite team pages.
I think it only serves to continue to keep reddit afloat. If our stuff does get crossposted, then we’re effectively just still using reddit. The point was to leave the platform because of the leadership, not kinda continue to half use it by proxy.
It’s a bandage that needs to be ripped off, not re-applied.
I don’t think there are any high quality discussions left to be had with the current suite of redditors.
E: I see you’re getting downvoted and that sucks - I for one appreciate our discussion.
Eliminate all bots.
Crossposts are useless because the communities are not interactive.
The strength of the Lemmy community in my opinion is the high quality of discussion, and there is no discussion to be had on reddit reposts when we are not having our content reposted onto reddit.
If they were properly curated, they didn’t. It’s not like an admin from any other instance can delete duplicate communities from other instances.
Yeah there’s not much that the Fediverse adds to the equation that a forum wouldn’t handle. It’s actually worse in a lot of ways, because on a forum you’re not going to have seven different subforums dedicated to the same topics, like the federation does by having 200 servers each with generally similar and redundant subcommunities. Sports is a big example I use, because it’s the most evident.
One of the most popular moderation moves on this platform has been to lock these excess communities and forward them to a central one that is actually active.
It’s a great concept but such an awful name. “Return of the ugly” is just such a bad and clunky title.
