My (red) state is one of those that changed the law to make it illegal for pornographic websites to be seen by children. To view them, you'd have to have some kind of central ID to prove that you are over 18. This is absolutely a precursor to having to have an ID to use the internet at all. Every bad thing that has ever happened on the internet will be used to convince legislators to enact a law like this. It's only a matter of time.

This is absolutely brilliant! I’ve tried to get results like this With starter images, but I have gotten nothing as nuanced and subtle as this! Great work!

Unit prices are easy to remember when you buy a single product. I bet you know the price of gas per unit immediately. What was the price of Pepsi per liter today? What was the price of Coke per liter? There are dozens and dozens of soda products alone you would have to memorize. And that’s just soda.

I applaud a store using its data to communicate to customers how prices have changed. We should do this everywhere.

At worst, it's gauche. It's much more likely that the moderator was personally offended by the use of that word than anything else. I have my own pet peeves. I can't stand the sound of someone saying "an historic event" ... but I'm not going to go around banning people over it. All that's going to do is make everyone more and more angry.

This is why we put specific, actionable rules on communities, people!

Regardless of whether or not any of the titles do or do not contain said content, ChatGPT’s varying responses highlight troubling deficiencies of accuracy, analysis, and consistency. A repeat inquiry regarding The Kite Runner, for example, gives contradictory answers. In one response, ChatGPT deems Khaled Hosseini’s novel to contain “little to no explicit sexual content.” Upon a separate follow-up, the LLM affirms the book “does contain a description of a sexual assault.”

On the one hand, the possibility that ChatGPT will hallucinate that an appropriate book is inappropriate is a big problem. But on the other hand, making high-profile mistakes like this keeps the practice in the news and keeps showing how bad it is to ban books, so maybe it has a silver lining.

I wonder how much it costs to get Joe Rogan to say both “No-nonsense” and “Tucker Carlson” in the same sentence.

There are several ways to link to a community. If your instance has had someone previously search for the community, then they will all work. If this hasn’t happened (usually because your instance is small or new) then there can be problems with the “shorthand” method that begins with an !. I’ve written a full explanation in this article at the Community Search Tips community. It lists the drawbacks and advantages of each approach that I’m aware of.

Almost the same thing happened on Reddit when everyone migrated from Digg. It's so similar, in fact, that I wonder if maybe this isn't a normal thing.

If you did this, you would prevent your fellow instance users from subscribing to content they are interested in. That wouldn't be very neighborly.

Everyone expects 20% no matter what. Especially those stylists who are working as independent contractors for a large company like Great Clips. Prices went up kind of fast in 2020, so I asked my wife to learn how to cut my hair during the lockdown, and I haven't gone back to a professional since.

We call that the dryducken method

I assumed these were just the same communities only started on different servers?

This is correct. Anyone can start a community on any Lemmy (Or KBin) server, and they can name it whatever they want. When a community is on a remote Lemmy instance, you see the @ suffix to help you see which one it is referring to. When no @ suffix is shown, that means that the community you are looking at is hosted on the instance that you are currently viewing Lemmy content through.

From the Github Repo Readme: These scripts enable users to build a Linux container or virtual machine in an interactive manner, offering options for both basic and advanced configurations. The basic setup utilizes default settings, whereas the advanced setup empowers users to alter these default settings. Through the use of the whiptail command, options are presented to users in a dialog box format. After the user makes their selections, the script collects and verifies the user's input in order to generate the final configuration for the container or virtual machine.
