um actually she is tomb raider's monster, it's a common misconception

I think it's because ML is a popular shorthand for 'Marxist-Leninist' since they mostly seem to be communist servers

It’s not jumping to conclusions; it’s actually pretty well-known. The devs and their instance are very open about being Marxist-Leninists.

I don’t see how machine learning is related to Lemmy in any way

Thanks, I know what it stands for but I am trying to explain why that particular top-level domain was picked for those lemmy instances

I prefer to call them LLMs (Large Language Models). It’s how they are referred to in the industry and I think it’s far more accurate than “AI”

Personally, I’m waiting until it doesn’t cost $80

Loving the 'free speech absolutist' in action

I’d love if the McPoyles from It’s Always Sunny were just thrown into a random panel

How can we call our system a democracy when one unelected man can hold so much power?

That’s not true. There are a few other free TLDs. I think five total?

lmao fuck tankies

Considering that the right-wing memed Trump into office, I think it is only fitting that memes are what destroy them

Thats not a rebuttal. The .ml instance is run by Marxist-Leninists

It only lasted four years and was never officially recognized by anyone

I love when the news tries to blame Trudeau for provincial issues instead of, y’know, the provincial leaders

This was a good read and it’s something I’ve wondered about. The fediverse is sorta built on this promise that everyone will be able to interact across any implementation of ActivityPub.

But that’s not really true. The different types of social media have wildly different implementations, where we have to rely on developers communicating and cooperating with other implementations for everything to work even a little bit

Maybe it’s a hot take but if you are giving life-altering treatments, and your company goes under, you should open-source everything

I cannot express how much I do not want this

TechCrunch’s report had access to a Discord channel where a person claiming to be the Apple employee who found the bug said “there wasn’t any real urgency” to fix the exploit immediately. The person explained that only Apple’s security research team knew about the exploit and that it’s not easily accessible in a real-world scenario.

Furthermore, the employee claimed that the exploit was reported to Google on June 5 and that the delay was due to the time it took for multiple people to sign off on the report.

Pretty misleading headline

Holy shit this is actually kind of a huge story
