Literally everything on the internet is paid for by advertising. And without it every site you rely upon will either become a subscription service or simply disappear because it is expensive to run a website.

Yeah it’s more than likely the same people doing it all the time.

Edit: either that or AI bots farming information from Lemmy to feed their databases.

I don’t see Receipt Printer in there.

The guy literally wrote an entire manifesto about how much AI is destroying the planet and how much he hates it as well as the people who use it.

I think it’s pretty definitive that he has a no AI policy.

When you copy/paste a piece of code and somebody asks you “Hey this code is pretty awesome how did you write it?”, you usually say “No I didn’t write it, I just grabbed it from a site.”

Vibe coders on the other hand will actively tell you that they wrote it themselves when they actually used an AI. THAT is the difference.

Except that it actually sucks at searches and far too often returns false results.

I disabled Gemini. But unfortunately they tied a whole host of features I really liked about my phone to that fucking thing. And now they’re all unusable. Google has effectively made themselves useless to me. There is now literally no point in having Android over any other OS that exists.

These laws should hopefully be struck down as unconstitutional because of their invasion of privacy(a violation of the 3rd and 4th amendments) and a general violation of the first amendment.

The thing that is hilarious about this is that DDG is powered by Bing. 😂

Yeah, these are Sikh warriors. Pretty much the most badass fighters in all of history.

Lifetime pass, it still works well so why would I switch?

It’s not even Indians anymore. They’ve become too expensive to hire. These bottom feeders have turned to more impoverished countries with lower standards of living.

Yeah, they’re hiring cheap offshore labor to pretend to be AI.

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

Short version: AI is not a shortcut to being a Linux programmer and contributor. You still actually need to know how to read/write code and documentation.

Which should be obvious but the hype has brainwashed the masses into thinking they can be overnight successes using AI. 😒

I don’t think you understand just how difficult that would be. The reason Taiwan has become such a hotly contested area between China and literally the rest of the world is because they have built up the infrastructure to produce processors and memory. Which includes huge clean rooms to prevent contamination by the air we’ve so completely polluted since the beginning of the industrial revolution.

Fighting a cease and desist takes money. Lots of it. Especially when the company you’re fighting is making billions of dollars on their product. And the guy who created the fork doesn’t have that kind of dough. So he opted to not fight it.

Therefore it is left up to others fight those battles.

Knowledgeable and smart are not the same thing. These two are very knowledgeable about the systems they worked on and database manipulation, believe it or not these are not hard skills to learn. But they were incredibly dumb regardless given every single action they took at every point in their lives.

No it’s the same shade that every one of these “Christian leaders” is wearing these days. It comes from them trying to lick Trump’s asshole.
