submit ai slop once = arxiv doesn’t trust you for the rest of your life.

fine by me

not just bann them. but to submit in future, their paper needs to be accepted in a reputable peer reviewed journal

i like Mother jones, pro publica.

also npr, ap, PBS, guardian. (these aren’t quite investigative… but they’re independent non-profits).

not normal people. how many people with power and money are saying it?

if it is baseline, how many people are saying it?

why not just use codeberg?

oh lol. the trust chain is harder and harder to verify these days. i miss the good old days where I would write emails in vi and encrypt with gpg.

I still write emails with vi. but I lost touch with the one other friend I had who knew how to use gpg 😂😂😂

interesting. my bet is because when microslop bought them they switched the infrastructure to azure immediately, and it was probably on something better before

lol. you’re leaving for the outages?

i left the day microslop bought it. i didn’t delete my repos… but I switched to using gitlab and now codeberg

I’m actually surprised to hear about the outages. i thought they were reliable…

I’d like the 2024 elections to be wiped from the books and have a do over.

shocking. a whole 33% still approve?

1% insiders and rich business owners I can see. but the rest???

say this again after you’ve gone a few years broke

not doing something the billionaires find annoying will also pretty much guarantee you don’t get surveilled…

the channel was blocked by YouTube. where can we watch it now?

women are physically weaker on average. there was a time when physical strength was hugely important

discord now has ads btw. the ads are gonna become more annoying as we go along

a lot of this is brainwashing by the rich and powerful. they need the poor motivated and working to make the rich even richer. paying the workers scraps and telling them to work hard is more profitable than paying them a fair wage.

when paid properly the workers would be happier and more productive. but that’s still less profitable for the ones at the top
