Into the hands of billionaires, who will be the only ones left able to buy up whatever they deem still has value.

That is fucking genius

I thought that couldn’t be true, but yeah, you’re right. Over 400,000 active members and more than 580,000 retired members. Odd.

God forbid there’s something important to worry about

Hey, you asked. What part of your comment do you feel is being taken way too seriously?

It’s easier to (figuratively) say “You guys are just not understanding my comment. It’s all of you who are wrong!” than to just take a second and understand why people don’t like what you commented earlier.

It implies that that’s a quality you should be judging people on, even if their looks have no bearing on the situation.

Of all the things or even subjects you could have made a comment on in this thread, you left one on the looks of a woman.

She doesn’t need your validation. Other Lemmy users don’t need your opinion on who’s attractive. It’s meaningless and detracts from the conversation.

Is there typically such a massive difference between using http://local_ip:3000 and https://speed.mydomain.com/?

Only if they resolve to different addresses.

That would imply that they’re equal.

My sister speculated that somebody (probably trump…) uploaded something far worse than “the pee-pee tape” to twitter and musk inherited that when he bought the site.

That is the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard speculated

Be aware that hardware access from a virtual machine(for an audio interface, for example) can be jittery or slow (latency), which might make it unusable for your purposes or not. You’ll have to find out.

This is insane.

Finally!

It’s kind of ironic that a mod felt the need to bring the censorship down like that, instead of allowing for an open discussion.

First, they came for the tweets…

When you’re the president, they let you do it! Grab 'em right in the rule of law.

Not really. I think most people containing about this also complain abiut that. Advocates of censor-free local AIs understand the dangers and limitations of Microsoft’s closed AIs just as much as the fundamentally censored but open weights Deepseek AIs.

Why?

What difference does the information make to you?

Less fun fact: Some terminal windows will happily process and display such high F-keys as input, leaving you with a screen full of garbage when you return.

Now give me an example of a corporate board at Intel’s scale being responsible when given the choice between being responsible or buttloads of short-term profits.
