    • Twitter To Rebrand As X

    Jump

  • he literally named his kid Xæ

    dude just loves throwing out Xs

    like an illiterate narcissist handing out unsolicited autographs

    • Twitter To Rebrand As X

    Jump

  • lol I clicked on the x.com link, then tried to close the "you should log in" shit by tapping the logo.

    it just looks like a close button... 😂

    • China's life expectancy is now higher than that of the US

    Jump

  • it's wild that the US keeps going down

    • Musk's new idea

    Jump

  • he has that much in stock, he doesn't have that much cash. he also has to make huge payments on what he borrowed to buy twitter so that may affect cashflow and then value of his other companies..

  • i know it doesn't calculate, that's why I suggested having known correct calculations in the training data to offset noise in the signal?

  • to be fair, fucking up maths problems is very human-like.

    I wonder if it could also be trained on a great deal of mathematical axioms that are computer generated?

    • Are almost all mobile games bad?

    Jump

  • huh I had no idea! thanks

    • Are any of your friends on the fediverse too? If not, have you tried to get them to join?

    Jump

  • i'm sadly finding communities with only one or two posts mostly, but i'm staying the course and i'm hopeful!

    • Musk claims Meta hired dozens of Twitter employees to build Threads.

    Jump

  • that's probably the most positive thing i've heard about threads so far. good work, elon.

    • Are any of your friends on the fediverse too? If not, have you tried to get them to join?

    Jump

  • no and i'd struggle to recommend it. it seems to be mostly talking about being on the fediverse and hating other social media.. hopefully we'll get to a point where there's more discussion outside of just being here and why.

    Jump

  • oh this is super cool! and will change a lot of things, VR for instance.

    • What should we do about Threads?

    Jump

  • privacy concerns around their app, it's a nightmare. never install it. but they can't get any data from the protocol that you aren't already publishing, and they can already get that without starting a different service.

    • I think people are over reacting to the launch of Threads by Meta

    Jump

  • I honestly agree, I feel so annoyed that on a platform designed from the ground up to enable communication whatever platform we're on, people are taking the first opportunity to cripple its growth because they hate a company.

    You can get whatever data is available from federation with a server just by joining a server - the data they want is from installing their app on your phone.

    if you stay federated with them you can get all their content for free without installing their spyware.

    complete win.

    • Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom 1.2.0 Update - doesn't look like it's fixing many of the glitches people have found

    Jump

  • all the item duplication bugs people are having fun with

    • Are you going to try Meta's Threads?

    Jump

  • no definitely not installing it or opening an account.

    I'm not against federation tho, I'd be in favour of showing people you can get all the same content through another channel. defederating means that people will have to use it if there's content from someone they like on there. I don't want to give people a reason to install that shit.

  • 2050 isn't really that far away. if you remember the year 2000, that's about how long.

    • Some Redditors say they're walking away after Apollo app shuts down

    Jump

  • used to use reddit sync.. deleted my reddit account now. shame, it was a really active site, but this is a good equivalent and it won't get spezzed or eloned. I can just move server if I feel like it.
