For light users, $36/mo is very expensive. However, for middle and upper management types that live, breathe, and eat PowerPoint, this is huge. If this is good enough to allow non-technical people to connect to their BI and generate charts and reports without the need of IT, it will be incredibly cheap to them. There’s a whole cottage industry of consultants for small business who do these sorts of things so having this automated will save time and cost for these businesses.

As a developer, I’m still interested in seeing what CoPilot integrated in my development environment will be able to do. My company is currently paying for ChatGPT+ at $20/mo for me. At my salary, it’s a no brainer since even an hour a month is a huge ROI. However, it’s quite manual since I have to copy paste everything. If I can get ChatGPT 4 with the full context of my project, $36/mom is a no brainer. If we can get a private version that is trained on our company code base, it will be a game changer.

For CSAM in the US, you have to have actual knowledge to be responsible for reporting. If you view the image or it is reported, you must act. Its pretty much the same for DMCA.

The sci-fi type implications of this would be astounding. We would see a rapidly increasing global population with high natural resource use. On a philosophical level, is living forever a blessing or a curse?

I bought a $3k+ LG OLED. I intentionally never agreed to any TOS so that it would act as a dumb TV. I wanted it on the network so that I could control it through Home Assistant and Apple HomeKit so I put it in my IoT VLAN. Within a day it was trying to port scan my network! It is now fully isolated with no outgoing connections allowed.

I think this could be very valuable for the community and the Lemmy devs. However, I believe to be successful, there needs to be a volunteer(s) who “sync” the community to the GitHub issues. We could automate this but that would make the situation worse. Here’s how I could imagine this working:

When a new feature or bug is posted, the mod determines if this is duplicated or not. If so, they will reply to the post with a link to the previous post and lock the current one. If it is truly new, the community can vote and comment. After a week or so, if the community supports the new feature or fixing the bug, the mod will open a new GitHub issue with a summary of the community discussion and link to the discussion.

This is a lot of work for the mods, but I believe it would really add value for both the Lemmy community and the devs.

I think that would only work when the number of instances is small. Two solutions to this might be:

• have instances act like relays where the home instance of a community notifies 10 instances and then each of those instances notifies 10 instances, etc.
• batch updates on a timer such that once a minute all posts, comments, boosts, etc within a minutes are buffered and sent together.

After Apollo’s API token was invalid, I deleted my account. I know it’s a minuscule drop in the ocean for Reddit, but not matter, I’m with Lemmy and the fediverse come what may.

We’re all figuring this out as we go! Since the great Reddit migration, we’ve already seen our first big drama with the Beehaw defederation. Some Beehaw users disagreed and left for other instances while users of other instances liked the move and joined Beehaw. The Lemmy fediverse is what WE make it for better or for worse.

Thanks for volunteering and stepping up. Modding ain’t easy, but it’s necessary.

Why not both?
