TL;DR:

I rant a bunch about how the silly eschatology of Yudkowsky and his cult have been hijacked by monopolistic corporate goons to push generative AI. Figured y’all might be interested.

    I spent a lot of time on r/SneerClub back in the day, I know to keep things NSFW, hah! And I’ll check out MoreWrite, that sounds fun!

    And the archived copy is totally fine by me, who knows how long Reddit will survive?

      given how thoroughly adequate lemmy and kbin are as federated reddit replacements (and in some cases they’re better, in spite of the jank — there’s nobody pushing shareholder and advertiser interests to the detriment of communities here), I suspect Reddit may not survive too far past whatever monetization scheme follows their future failed IPO

        Pretty much how I feel. Genuinely considering starting a lemmy instance or something to take over for the subreddit for my books.

            This is arcane, eldritch knowledge my mortal brain cannot comprehend.

            My web guy can probably read it just fine, though, thanks for sharing!

              ah, exposure to NixOS may cause your web guy to either crash or become unreadable as all of his output becomes functional programming, but he may be able to data mine some good settings from our config
