There should be a simple way to give money to workers for those of us who wouldn't give a single cent to faceless corporations.

I still like to know why people pirate.

To me the only benefit in defederation is in blocking instances with illegal content. I would never use StackOverflow if there was a chance of not seeing the top answer to the questions I search.

Yeah, better software availability.

I had planned to use it as a replacement for my desktop, but I encountered a few issues while installing some of the programs I usually use. As a result, I decided to utilize it for self-hosting certain programs instead.

This reminds me of:

An Entire Generation is Studying for Jobs that Won’t Exist

AI is taking over a lot of jobs, now it is coming for the writers who wrote about “machines taking over the world.”

By Mohit Pandey

TLDR: The increasing capabilities of AI are making many jobs obsolete, including those that require coding. Hollywood writers are protesting the use of AI in scriptwriting, as they believe it diminishes their role and creativity. The Writers Guild of America (WGA) is negotiating proper attribution and copyright issues regarding generative AI technology. Some argue that computer science degrees will become more important as understanding AI systems will be crucial. However, economists suggest that AI will displace jobs over time rather than causing instant mass unemployment. The need for humans to be trained in AI to be unbiased and proficient is emphasized. The disruption caused by AI is evident in layoffs across various industries. The potential of AI to eliminate jobs is a concern, but others believe it can create new job opportunities. IBM, for example, has announced it will replace 7,800 roles with AI. The future of jobs remains uncertain, but instead of rejecting AI, industries should consider incorporating it to enhance their work.

I'm also conflicted, I've saved this post for now, maybe I decide to use the extension at some point.

If he truly thought that he wouldn't have posted it.

I personally dislike it. It has a poor appearance and instead of copies books instead of tracking them wherever I want them to be. However, it is currently the best option available.

There were too many options in this post and I want to see what are the really interesting ones.

What file-sharing and media organizing software do you wish that existed?

 

The TL;DR summary provides an overview of the movie review for the latest Indiana Jones film, 'Dial of Destiny.' The reviewer had low expectations due to the disappointment of the previous installment, 'Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.' While the movie is not bad, it falls short in terms of storytelling, weak writing, and lack of emotional depth. The villains are portrayed as comically stupid, and the ending is considered goofier than the previous film. Despite its flaws, the reviewer still appreciates the original trilogy and believes the character has potential in today's market. They rate the film 60 out of 100 and promote their comic book series, 'Godslap' and 'Plague Seeker,' available at bad egg.co.

 

I recently came across LemmyBB, a frontend for Lemmy that is based on the popular forum software phpBB. It seems like a great way to bring the familiar forum experience to the federated world of Lemmy. However, I haven't seen any significant migration of forums to Lemmy using this UI. What could be the reasons behind this? Are there any technical or usability issues that are preventing forums from adopting LemmyBB and moving to the Lemmy platform?

 

The Singularity is a hypothetical future event where technology growth becomes uncontrollable and irreversible, leading to unpredictable transformations in our reality^1^. It's often associated with the point at which artificial intelligence surpasses human intelligence, potentially causing radical changes in society. I'd like to know your thoughts on what the Singularity's endgame will be: Utopia, Dystopia, Collapse, or Extinction, and why?

I lost my YouTube history, as mentioned in this message, and I am considering self-hosting my own instance to prevent this from happening again. However, I have a few concerns. Will I lose the privacy benefits that come with using another instance? If I make my instance public, will I be sharing bandwidth? Should I use the available package on Manjaro or follow the installation instructions?

 

r/Piracy on Reddit is more of a meme subreddit. I've never seen any actual discussion or valuable information as I do on this community. Why is that?

 

It would be helpful if there were an instance that migrated all of this to Lemmy so that we could access it from any other instance, instead of having to download it for local browsing.

This was data from pushshift before Reddit nuked it in March. You can find this torrent (called "Reddit comments/submissions 2005-06 to 2022-12") and others, including 2023-01 and 2023-02, on https://academictorrents.com by user Watchful1.

I recently came across a torrent that seems to be an archive of Reddit. It got me thinking if it would be possible to make it locally browsable. However, I also considered the possibility that someone might have already addressed this by creating a public Lemmy instance, enabling the content to be accessible from any federated instance.
