Protests with political organization can lead to change. Protests without political organization are just yelling at a wall.
Right... I'm not sure why you think I'm not in favor of organized resistance.
If you don't want someone to take offense at what you write, don't smugly tell them to learn introspection. Act like an arrogant dick, get treated like an arrogant dick.
You were doing a "both sides" between anarchists and fascists, eerily similar to Trump, while claiming to be "left leaning". I think my response was warranted, if not understated. But frankly, that's plain ignorant.
Direct action is meaningless if you're hostile to building a coalition broad enough to actually gain any significant political power.
Spoken like someone who's never done organizing, participated in protests or any other direct action. You're a keyboard warrior who's probably never even interacted with a socialist IRL.
this is a democracy and without votes going to candidates who can win, it is ultimately meaningless.
Not a democracy and also I already gave 2 examples showing the contrary.
I remember being young and convinced socialism was the way forward. Then I grew the fuck up and did some introspection.
No need to be a condescending dick. I'm also guessing I'm older than you, not that it's relevant.
This is why libs get clowned on so hard. You claim to support "the only viable left leaning political party", and yet you're kneecapping large swaths of people on the ground engaging in direct action advancing left leaning values. Remember, segregation wasn't ended because black people voted, blood was spilt in the streets. Same with the LGBT community, see the stonewall uprising, aka, the first pride parade.
I don't care how you vote, but if you can't see the difference between an anarchist engaging in direct action against an oppressive state and fascists doing hate crimes; well, I'd say it's time to get off your high horse and do a little introspection.
In a way yes, when I post a comment, no one else will be able to see it while the site is down. But it eventually will go through when the site is up. And because I'm browsing from a different instance, I can see all the content even if lemmy.world is offline.
The problem is it's the largest and is being attacked. Use a different instance and you'll have no problem accessing this community. If it weren't for people posting about the outages, I'd never even know.
Nginx-proxy-manager makes dealing with certs easier imo. You can either have it setup to double proxy (point to the nginx you already have running) or replace the existing nginx (you'll have to copy the config into nginx-proxy-manager ui).
Nah, the working class is just being ignored by the two parties and Trump has been exploiting that. He talks of being an outsider while him and his buddies enjoy tax breaks and deregulated industry. They keep the maga's focused on culture war shit to ensure they don't think about the economics for too long.
Over the years I've used Usenet, public trackers, and private trackers. I always come back to the private trackers.
If your public trackers have what you want at speeds you want, and you're happy using a VPN for all downloads, then by all means.
But I like private trackers because I get my hands on the content ASAP (both because they get posted quickly but also because of high seeder ratios). The quality of the encodes on the good trackers is maintained by moderation teams. And often times I'm looking for rare content that can only be found on private trackers. Most have a request system that allows you to even get stuff not immediately available.
Yes you have to seed, but usually it's doable to maintain a good ratio even with slow upload speeds (freeleech or bonus systems help here).
I don't have a kindle, but according to my buddy, Amazon assigns an email address for every Kindle, so you just email your DRM-free books to that address and they show up on the Kindle.
To a certain extent, yes, the training data is blindly being dumped in. There's no way terabytes of training data is being manually reviewed for accuracy. If for no other reason, it doesn't economically make sense to do so. It's simply not feasible for humans to manually currate all of that data and even if they did, human error still exists.
If LLMs are as revolutionary as the zealots believe, then there will exist less and less blue marbles in the universe with each iteration. So either the bucket gets smaller or the ratio of blue marbles gets smaller.
I think you misunderstand the problem. Sure it starts with small amounts of output fed into the input, but as it continues to generate large amounts of output, overtime, more and more of the output makes it into the input.
And again, limiting LLMs to pre-2023 training data ensures they never get smarter. Human knowledge expands as LLMs at best are locked into a constant state of 2023 knowledge.
Sure there may be a lot, but it's still finite. And already, social media is being filled with AI generated content. If the trend continues, human generated content will be dwarfed by AI generated content. And it's not going to be a simple process to distinguish between the two.
If we assume LLMs are as revolutionary as you are suggesting, then how is model collapse an easy problem to solve? Google is a relic of the past, the internet is filled with AI generated content; then where will the training data come from? We can't replace human generated content with AI generated content without an inevitable model collapse.
Oh and btw, good luck with differentiating between human generated and AI generated. Already, social media sites are being cluttered with AI generated content, Amazon book publishing being cluttered with shit tier LLM generated "books" (cheap immitations), and if academia goes this way, and entertainment as many speculate, there's hardly anything left.
