The bots have become sentient

I have a few Norweigan friends and they say the same.

They’re creating the one thing they want to destroy. lol

They even admit that pepe can be used in perfectly normal ways, yet they show it’s the number one most used one. That’s crazy to me lmao

I think a lot of the future of social media is going to be determined by ease of use/beginner-friendliness.

The issue (and strength) with Lemmy is there’s multiple instances. You’re not gonna be able to explain it to non-technical people, even as an experienced programmer myself I sometimes find myself getting confused by Lemmy. People don’t want to learn, they just want to use something that works.

Then again, KBin only had the one instance pretty much I think, and yet that died out anyway. So I think part of it is people just want to go where everyone else is, and that did end up being Lemmy and not KBin (although the maintainer of KBin also refused outside contributions which helped seal its fate lol)

If Bluesky has the one instance, and you literally just go to bsky.app and sign up, that’s going to be a lot easier than trying to sell people on Mastodon or Lemmy when they Google those. Then again, I just googled Mastodon and it took me right to Mastodon.social so maybe I am mistaken.

I use DDG but I’m always open to alternatives.

That’s a really cute goat.

The weird thing is, the original version of it wasn’t AI lol

I’m pretty sure this is an AI-enhanced or AI-created version of an image, since the original image existed long before AI/LLMs did.

They probably feel like it’s “personalized”, like it’s “for them”, which is an absolutely disgusting and horrifying thought.

I’d be willing to bet it’s most women in their 20s and 30s. Although to be fair, it said 29 phones were searched, not 29 phones had nudes on them.

To be fair, I have actually seen fringe cases where people accuse AI of always being wrong.

You’re right, it would be easier if we could just ignore it, but sadly it’s correct enough that it becomes useful for widespread usage, which is why it’s seeing widespread usage. Like always, trust but verify, or just don’t trust it. lol

I use Ubuntu because it’s the most popular and well-supported.

I’m going to be switching to Mint at some point because it’s basically a community-run fork of Ubuntu and I don’t trust Canonical anymore, but it’s hard to justify installing my OS from scratch considering I’ve been using Ubuntu since 2017.

I recently ordered a Thinkpad T14 Gen1 with an R7 4750U, 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD and you better believe I’m going to be putting Mint on that as soon as I get it.

As he should be, what an absolute moron.

I’m honestly surprised anyone thought it wouldn’t go this way.

Anyone who knows how big of a piece of shit Jake Paul is knew this was going to happen.

Jake Paul is a piece of shit and so is his brother Logan.

But Zionism isn’t a religion, it’s a nationalist movement.

Wow, that’s kind of a lot more Linux than I was expecting, but it also makes sense. Pretty cool tbh.

This is why people say Americans are morons, because they elect shitheads like this.

Can’t wait to see what these fuckheads have in store for America, and the rest of the world. Plus, Canada is getting it’s own version of Trump next year, so that’s incredible too.

What wonderful times we live in.

Yes, but, what if it had even more cables?
