yep. it’s a stupid powerful build but also surprisingly flexible.

sure did. however, that law technically doesn’t take effect until Sep 1. however, it seems some employers are already taking advantage of it to harm and kill their employees. also important to note that the temperature in much of Texas can still be well above 90F through the end of October, so Sep 1 is not a meaningful date WRT working through the summer - there will likely be many 100F+ days after this law officially begins.

agreed, this is a power that should not exist. I’m glad it was used here for good, and I also also recognize that the GOP plays dirty in every way they can, but it is scary that the intent of a law could just be completely rewritten by the governor. let’s hope WI can become more robust to abuse before a fascist ever gets elected governor

I could, but the article I linked already has.

There can be a discussion about Aljazeera as an organization, but that has nothing to do with the content of this article.

And reparations is not only about slavery. This panel wrote 1,075 pages on the subject and it doesn’t sound like you even read one article about it before trying to dispute the validity of a reparations program. Again, there can be discussion about how reparations should be handled, but it should start by acknowledging that colossal amount of work that has already gone into the conversation.

“hallucination” works because everything an LLM outputs is equally true from its perspective. trying to change the word “hallucination” seems to usually lead to the implication that LLMs are lying which is not possible. they don’t currently have the capacity to lie because they don’t have intent and they don’t have a theory of mind.

I don’t agree. I think it’s disingenuous to isolate the decision from the context as if it were made unprompted. it comes across as if you are blaming the admins for something you don’t like - if that’s not your intent, then what is ?

it may seem that way, but that’s not accurate. something had to be done to stem the trolls and lemmy doesn’t provide any tools for less severe action.

On the topic of forums, I do like them, but I find they can often feel less “casual” than reddit/Lemmy. Different etiquette, I think.

I agree and it’s what I like about forums. to someone like me they’re more approachable. discord works best for me with friends, but it’s awkward with people I don’t know well

ease of use is massive though. I really don’t think federation is the future in our timeline. it would take some event actively pushing “normies” away from centralized services - I’m not even sure what that could be.

re: static content

How does authentication factor into this? even if we exclude marketing/tracking bullshit, there is a very real concern on many sites about people seeing the data they’re allowed to see. There are even legal requirements. If that data (such as health records) is statically held in a blockchain such that anyone can access it by its hash, privacy evaporates, doesn’t it?

the most important things will be preserved naturally.

I believe this is a fallacy. Things get preserved haphazardly or randomly, and “importance” is relative anyway.
