That is simply not true. Subscriptions are at best at ~20% but lookin up. And yes they do actually pay bills, no landlord would have had them pause that for this long lol

"loved it for all the wrong reasons" What? It sounds like you don't actually support the basis of Community Notes and were looking for it to be used selectively. No. Power to the people. Not power to the the bloated team that

More and more of the time when someone mentions "hate speech" they're just angry something isn't being moderated like Reddit. One needs to have perspective and if you have zero accusations of enabling hate speech as a pl

Sure, in the short term yes. You can't fix the lack of funds from advertisers with subscriptions in a few days. But eventually I hope it will. Being dependent on advertisers is kryptonite for platforms of user speech, regardless if it&

Semantics. Sure, Twitter is dead. For the benefit of everybody. X again is more lively than ever, for the good of not just current civilization, but near and far future. X will have some trouble shedding some of Twitter's old behaviors

It is not a straw man. Considering how the post starts, the writer fully expected the platform to die. Also literally "twitter is dead" "twitter is dead to me" "twitter is quite dead" go inside a reasonable int

When a blog post starts with saying "twitter is dead" it doesn't really make it worth reading further. "Twitter is dead" was said pretty much as numerously as "2 more weeks" but it's off better than e

You know, one doesn't really even need to read the whole of your comment to know your way of "debating" is dead in the water. Take the argument as a whole. "Isolating" parts of it just makes you look like you'r

It does work as a metaphor because if Apple could force you to use their iExtinguisher and ban others they absolutely would, with the argument that they are improving fire safety.

The whole underlying point is that Apple will do anything to virtue signal when in reality they are making a decision on improving their profit regardless if it decreases security of its customers and other people. It is undeniable and sill

It's not a super serious comment, it's more about how ridiculous the tone of "We are doing this for YOUR protection" would be. On a more serious note though, in the end Apple absolutely has the power of increasing everyo

Since apple has no control over your fire extinguisher, they sent a man to securely take it from your house and dispose of it. It could have been a bomb for all you know.

You have a negative amount of thought to add, just slander & playing weak mind games on something like trying to say there's no Russians in Ukraine. I deem you're a Russian troll and move on.

Just no. There's no reason to believe the situation isn't how it's stated. It's been written about how the Starlink geoblocks are quite notably _on_ the frontlines on ground, sometimes even to the ire of Ukranian operati

FYI using non-bot APIs like WTelegram for gathering messages and sending them (even while sending thru a bot account!) gets you rid of the 50MB and similar limits. Source: Run a bot that aggregates and translates several Russian channels fo

Check it again, I think you might have misread the thing. It categorizes things in a way that clearly separates AlphaGO from even shooting towards "AGI". The "General" part of AGI can't really be skipped or words do

Would be fun to see the training material, source code (engine & training data scraping systems), and models all leak. With Sam not returning that would be the double tap the now-zombie OpenAI'd need.
