I believe if you logged directly into Lemmy without routing through Tor then their servers would log your IP address. With sufficient cause your ISP could be forced to provide your name and address but the reason would need to be very good, most obviously involving immediate endangerment of life. But times are changing and the reasons to make such inquiries might change too.

All of this in the open, with the world watching. Building camps at home and removing rights. Sinking further and further into shame, with all the talk of bravery and freedom in the national anthem and when the time comes there is only total and instant capitulation. The US will never regain its position in the world.

Billionaires do not have any special talents, perhaps beyond a coldness of spirit and lack of empathy so that their population is determined by the current holding capacity of the socio-economic and political world they find themselves in. What I mean to say by this is if you cause a particular billionaire to live an additional hundred years the result is not an increase in the net number of billionaires but rather their revised individual longevity simply limits other sociopaths from assuming billionaire status. Now you likely do not personally know any billionaires so whether they are constantly reshuffled by a natural lifespan or its the same set of long lived fuckers actually makes no odds to you. You do however very likely know people within a fifty meter radius of you, family and friends. Your life will be greatly enriched by the resurrection of such people and for the reasons I have stated not overly harmed by Nosferatuing a few mega-rich.

How could I not comment on the posts I comment on and also not comment on the others that I don’t comment on.

OpenAI states there are doubts over the legality of some of the actions of its competitors, further stating there are no doubts over the legality of some of its own actions.

What do we want?

Long term solutions drawing on considered and intelligent analysis of all of the facts available.

When do we want it?

We haven’t thought this through.

Even the rest of the world’s far right are telling Trump’s entourage not to go full Nazi.

The colour scheme looks quite painful.

Almost 90% of The World see Trump as bad for The World

It will look like a man playing with a dog, and we are not the man.

There is a very small faction of billionaires siphoning wealth away from the world, truly hoarding it such that it is unused and unproductive. The role of the political class is to facilitate this and distract the general population away from it by setting naturally allied groups against each other. Divide and conquer is as old as humankind and we still fall for it every time.

What in the living fuck are you talking about.

It was a quote from Norm Macdonald, comedy - look it up if German search engines lower themselves with such humourous returns. The Germans are what they are, today they fought against appeasement and led a European announcement of greatly increased defense spending to support Ukraine and the world more widely, a difficult and noble decision. Filling the gap left as the US falls ever further into shame.

Double, double toil and trouble, server burn and model bubble.

I was there too and I believe there is a chance this is the start of inorganic intelligence. I think LLM might have hit upon the way the subconscious organic mind arrives at thought, by best guess of the most probable based on learned experience. That is then passed to the conscious mind - when you wrote your reply you did not grapple over every word, whole sentences and responses simply popped into your conscious mind passed from the subconscious where all the work was done. And I have a good idea that work was probabilistic.

At a time when reading books is dwindling we who have as our ultimate sole purpose the distribution of books have decided to make it more difficult to have access to books in the hope we might make a little more money through our self destruction.

He would have paid with other people’s money but I do not think it is right to think of OpenAI as grifters working a business plan. They are zealots who think they are creating an inflection point in human civilisation and they might be right.

Reddit, they can crawl through all the animal emotion they might want over there.

I think alcohol like music can not be separated from its effect upon the mind. I think those effects are entirely the point we take it, I think if it was just taste you would not drink your White Russian. I think when you drink it it is because you want to visit or at least be reminded of your dark place. Like all drugs it is vital not to ignore the positive effects they can have while also being very aware of the long term negative consequences. As to answering the original question I think if you drink less than the average it is permissible to give as your reasons that you sometimes like the way it makes you feel. You drink in the same way you put on music, not because of the sound or the taste but because it takes you to somewhere else and for a little while that is where you needed to be.

I think the problem here is not so much Musk but the systems of governance that exist in these countries, and I include USA in that, are too open to non-democratic influence. There will always be people seeking to bend politics globally and domestically to their own advantage, but if they are able to succeed the fault lies in the system not their intent to do it. I think the problem is very similar to that found in the financial systems of the world, the weaknesses that provide backdoor and covert direction have been intentionally built into these systems to allow unfair command. These controls are now being used very overtly by people they were not intended for. Leaders complain about the agents exerting these influences because they can not admit to the methods.
