  • Barnes and Noble is another book store example that's following a similar arc. They were on a severe downward trend for years, but new leadership let each store set its own content and suddenly they opening stores instead of closing them.

  • I can repeat the same refrain as above, but instead I'll say that if the wide cultural impulse is to keep times loose, then there is no disrespect of peoples time. Casual starts and stops for an event that everyone understand are very respectful, as they grant everyone full autonomy.

    You may not enjoy a loose time table, but that dosent make the trait "shitty." It makes it something you dont like is all.

  • I'm still waiting for "human resources" from the same devs.

    Hell, bring back super Monday night combat even.

  • Any used SFF PC will blow away a pi5, even something with like a 4th gen Intel chip. Form factor is roughly the size of a DVD case instead of a deck of cards like a pi, but as long as that not an issue you should be fine getting something cheap and used.

  • Submersibles always float, even when above the water line. They retain their state as submarines regardless of where and whence they float.

    Even in dry dock, where they "float" in the air due to steel beams, they are still submarines.

  • Objection!!!

    You can be a fat, lazy fuck. That means gluttony, sloth and lust are all compatible your honor.

  • Not enough pouches.

  • Submarines dont have to be underwater to still be submersibles.

    Sailors are big fans of the boat floating when they want to get on and off the thing. The alternatives are...not so great.

  • Acne is mainly genetic, and only somewhat affected by environmental factors.

    Mostly acne stems from people making too muxh oil/hair/skin cells, to the point that they then clog pours, causing inflamation. Using a quality cleanser will generally help, but mainly its a lottery that you dont have acne.

  • There is a pretty easy middle ground: remove all gas taxes and tax every vehicle at $130/yr.

    They won't do that because that affects "their" voters in an obvious way and doesnt apply a screw to their enemies.

  • Michael Keaton filled out the Batman suit tout suite, so....

  • Its a really weird variant of a strip bar. It kind of makes the prostitution angle of stripping more difficult because of the logistics of the cars and the coffee huts. No dark corners like strip bars as they are just tiny drive thru buildings. In sure shit still happens, but less than usual. Likely safer for the sex workers too.

    The window is always turned away from the road, likely by law.

    Oddly, its almost a puritanical strip club where people pay $20 for a coffee and 5 minutes of attention from a stripper. It's like if hooters was more blatantly a strip club, but wouldn't commit to it.

  • Technology connections did the math out on this. He found that acre for acre, even assuming very poor fuel mileage for an electric car, the same land used to produce electricity instead of corn for fuel would be about 70x more efficient.

    He also found that if we used only ethanol corn fields for solar panels and no other land, we would produce 7x the current total power demand of the United States.

  • Mint

    Jump
  • Toss Dandelion's in there too. Also very hardy, spreads well, almost entirely edible.

  • She's a hell of a signer. Her music just roars with life.

    I don't like country, but she sits in the same spot the highwaymen does in my eyes. The music pushes past taste and into legend.

  • You should also calculate external damage to the world, like carbon pollution/microplastics from tires/noise pollution/higher taxes for road repairs/etc.

  • Once again. The admin in question DID NOT USE THE LLM TO DECIDE ON THE ADMIN ACTION. Can you understand this? Can you read this?

    Literally no one believes this corpo speak bullshit. That they just coincidentally ran this unpublished python tool, did their own work, then just happened to use an LLM to do the exact same work right after, totally innocently? That reads as absolute ass covering and nothing more. This is the "I smelled weed" of cop stops, just filtered through nerdy fediverse bullshit.

    Then, because the above totally happened like you said it did, as a one off joke that no one would ever notice, the same admin opted to put a current OpenAI model name in the LLM field in an absolutely not tongue in cheek way for other admins to totally catch and joke about? Which of course happened, haha, y'all had a big laugh about it before this blew up, yeah?

    Oh, and of course this only happened the one time, and never again. Of course no one on your team used this unpublished time saving and thought terminating tool again, of course not.

    Come the fuck on.

    Its very clear what happened. Your mod/admin wrote/vibe coded a python script that pulls user comment history via the Lemmy api, pipes it to openai to "analyze it," then banned the user when it came back with the answer they wanted to hear, and thats being charitable that they kept a human in the loop. Its fully possible the script auto banned the user and made the modlog comment directly. It was most likely used once because they bragged about their AI ban tool on the "we love AI" lemmy instance, and y'all freaked out on them because you understand optics at a minimal level. Any future use was hidden or, best case, kiboshed.

    With no evidence to the contrary past "trust me bro," the above hits Occam razors much more consistently than your myriad excuses and evasive answers. Show us this script, show us logging from this qwen instance. Until then, its clear you're in full on PR mode because your admin team did exactly what you claim they didn't.

  • The code was used to pull a users comment history into a text file, which was then used to ban the user, right? Leaving the fact that it was then fed into an LLM that may or may not have been self hosted based on "jokes" aside, how is code used in an official instance action like moderation not "official instance" tooling?

    Do you post a public log of all your "official instance tooling?" How often, and in want instances, has "unofficial instance tooling" been used to do official instance actions like banning users?
