I frequently forget that chrome is installed on my phone. The only time I'm forced to use it is about once a year when I order Papa John's Pizza takeout. Their checkout page doesn't seem to work in any other browser.

Something which clarified Zuck's behavior in my mind was an interview where he said something along the lines of, "I could sell meta for x amount of dollars, but then I'd just start another company anyways, so I might as well not."

The guy isn't doing what financially makes sense. He's Uber rich and working on whatever projects he thinks are cool. I wish Zuck would stop sucking in all his other ways, but he just doesn't care about whether his ideas are going to succeed or not.

I actually don't think this is shocking or something that needs to be "investigated." Other than the sketchy website that doesn't secure user's data, that is.

Actual child abuse / grooming happens on social media, chat services, and local churches. Not in a one on one between a user and a llm.

I wonder if you could just use your PC to hotspot when you need to use VR.

Yeah, right? I mean, imagine if YouTube when down and just deleted all the videos. People would be up and arms demanding legislative action. There would be endless lawsuits.

As a creative, you rely on platforms to not obliterate your stuff. At least not immediately. This guy has a horse in the race of this site.

That's not really what the article is about. The author even concedes that such a law would never, and perhaps never should, happen; rather, he feels that corporations will not adopt best practices of preservation unless compelled, and it pisses him off.

The title is deliberate hyperbolic. He's clearly pissed.

Why is everyone so mad about this? I mean, it's a salty article, but yeah, it kinda sucks when publications don't give notice before closing down. I think providing the public, including previous contributors, time to archive content is a good practice.

For some context, you can cook food at ~140 to 145 °f

Grok 2 uses the image model, "Flux." Flux is made by black forest labs. You two can download the model and run it locally on a moderately expensive gaming PC or use it for free at https://huggingface.co/spaces/black-forest-labs/FLUX.1-dev among other places.

I find it funny that the most newsworthy component of this product is made and distributed for free by a completely unrelated company. This is manufactured outrage by musk as a ploy to seem relivant in the ai space. All he did was put a free thing behind a Paywall.

I'm so happy that new pipe is working again.

Yeah, I agree. I do sort of understand op's consternation. I don't browse Lemmy on my work PC, but sometimes on lunch or in public I pull it up on my phone on All communities and I'm suddenly conscious that everyone beside me can see the "sfw" furry and anime art that I scroll past.

However, that's kinda my fault. I don't want to ban those communities because I like that stuff. It's just a little odd that we call it sfw when, to be honest, I have a hard time picturing most work places where I live happy to see that on my desktop.

Yeah, that would be great. Many instance admins already use CSAM classifier models on all incoming images. It'd be great if they could add additional models that could put meta tags on images automatically like "suggestive" and "gore" with the option for the poster to modify the tags just in case it was a false negative or positive. Like a lasagna getting gore, for example.
