She endorsed Biden before. It wasn’t really a surprise.
Is this why everyone is downvoting the fact checker? Because they don’t like it saying their preferred outlets have a bias?
The Guardian does have a left bias, its pretty obvious. That’s not a bad thing.
It’s still everywhere in my news/internet diet.
It’s bleeding, for sure, but it’s big. Its gone bad. But I think its premature to say its collapse is a good thing, because it just won’t go away.
It’s not dead though, it’s still linked to everywhere, from big news to niche communities because it still has that critical mass and inertia.
And I have to be cynical of the Fediverse, but realistically, what replaces it, at least here in the US? Discord? No, thanks, I’d at least rather have information be public.
I’m speaking as someone who has never used Twitter, but I can’t ignore it, as much as I’d like to.
The behavior is configurable just like it is on linux, UAC can be set to require a password every time.
But I think its not set this way by default because many users don’t remember their passwords, lol. You think I’m kidding, you should meet my family…
Also, scripts can do plenty without elevation, on linux or Windows.
That actually is weird.
The problem is that splitting models up over a network, even over LAN, is not super efficient. The entire weights need to be run through for every half word.
And the other problem is that petals just can’t keep up with the crazy dev pace of the LLM community. Honestly they should dump it and fork or contribute to llama.cpp or exllama, as TBH no one wants to split up LLAMA 2 (or even llama 3) 70B, and be a generation or two behind for a base instruct model instead of a finetune.
Even the horde has very few hosts relative to users, even though hosting a small model on a 6GB GPU would get you lots of karma.
The diffusion community is very different, as the output is one image and even the largest open models are much smaller. Lora usage is also standardized there, while it is not on LLM land.

Futurama had it right, spammers are the ultimate destroyers.
Hmm, what if the shadowbanning is ‘soft’? Like if bot comments are locked at a low negative number and hidden by default, that would take away most exposure but let them keep rambling away.
Trap them?
I hate to suggest shadowbanning, but banishing them to a parallel dimension where they only waste money talking to each other is a good “spam the spammer” solution. Bonus points if another bot tries to engage with them, lol.
Do these bots check themselves for shadowbanning? I wonder if there’s a way around that…
This. I’m surprised Lemmy hasn’t already done this, as it’s such a huge glaring issue in Reddit (that they don’t care about, because bots are engagement…)

Its kind of hilarious that they’re using American APIs to do this. It would be like them buying Ukranian weapons, when they have the blueprints for them already.
Jokes aside (and this whole AI search results thing is a joke) this seems like an artifact of sampling and tokenization.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the Gemini tokens for XTX are “XT” and “X” or something like that, so it’s got quite a chance of mixing them up after it writes out XT. Add in sampling (literally randomizing the token outputs a little), and I’m surprised it gets any of it right.
The plan is to monetize the AI results with ads.
I’m not even sure how that works, but I don’t like it.
Honestly I am not sold on petals, it leaves so many technical innovations behind and its just not really taking off like it needs to.
IMO a much cooler project is the AI Horde: A swarm of hosts, but no splitting. Already with a boatload of actual users.
And (no offense) but there are much better models to use than ollama llama 8b, and which ones completely depends on how much RAM your Mac has. They get better and better the more you have, all the way out to 192GB. (Where you can squeeze in the very amazing Deepseek Code V2)
Honestly, a lot of that is budget.
Apple makes low clocked, very wide SoCs, and are always the first customer of the most cutting edge silicon node. This is very expensive. And Apple can eat it with their outrageous prices.
Intel (and AMD) go more for “balance,” with smaller cheaper dies and higher peak clocks. Their OEMs also “cheap out” by bundling a bunch of bloatware that also drains the battery to pad margins. You can find PCs with big batteries and better stock configs, but these are more expensive.
AMD is only just now getting into the “premium” game with the upcoming Strix Halo chip (M2 Pro-ish spec wise). Intel isn’t there yet, but there are rumors they will as well.
I’m sorry, but Democratic leadership, the Washington Post, and the New York Times are not “right wing.” The last Republican presidental candidate thje NYT endorsed was Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1956.
They’re right wing to you and Lemmy, but Lemmy is not the center of America’s political compass. And I’m speaking as a rabid DJT hater who votes straight ticket Democrat, bar one primary I registered republican in just so I could vote against DJT.
