See I enjoy arguments, they can be productive and interesting, but I don’t enjoy arguments with people who are not honest with themselves, argue in bad faith, people who are either deliberately putting words in your mouth, or end up doing it because they are insistently ignorant.
I don’t care what idiots think, I enjoy not having to see their thoughts.
If I’ve blocked someone and they’re commenting on something I’ve said… I don’t care what idiots think.
Yes, I block them, after I make sure that they’re insistent on being disingenuous, and not merely misinformed.
Related: Pretty sure I’ve blocked most of the .world moderators/admins at this point.
Lockheed Martin
Yep.
Unless somebody manages to … inject a hostile/unauthorized LLM as a mod or admin or something, in an instance they’re not an admin of, in a comm they’re not a mod of…
Then people react by personally blocking or perhaps instance wide defederating or maybe conceiveably someone actually uses this in a generally good way, to identify trolls/sock puppets.
As to… LLM scraping of comments?
Lemmy is public, anyone can do that.
I’ve done it to myself with a local LLM hooked up to a search engine, and I’m not a mod or admin of anything.
Hence why you probably should use a pseudonym and not give too much information about yourself, if you’re concerned about privacy… same… rules the internet has always had.
I suppose that instances could implement various anti-scraping measures, but that’s never going to be 100% effective as scrapers vs anti-scrapers has also basically always been a constantly escalating arms race.
No no no.
This is fine.
Because you have nothing to worry about if you’ve done nothing wrong and have nothing to hide.
Because mass surveillance apparati are never wrong, and no one ever uses them improperly.
Therefore, everyone who disagrees with me is a paranoid nutjob.
^^^ fucking braindead morons for at least the last 20 years ^^^
Its the place where you go in capitalism land to pick your favorite brand/flavor of subscription payment plan for the ability to not die from an injury or health condition, but instead become chronically impoverished, or become a functional indebted slave laborer.
Yes.
This is why people have been screaming about ‘its only your meta data we are sharing’ being a crock of horseshit for over a decade now, because meta data + data analysis = very high confidence of actual PII.
But we didn’t listen to those paranoid nerds, so now we live in hell.
Oh also literally every company or organization does this with all the data they can legally (or sometimes illegally) do this with.
They get a slap on the wrist, sometimes… data is very profitable.
Oh and Palantir has all of this kind of data, if that makes you feel better.
Old internet addage: If you’re getting something for free, you are the product.
Oh oh bonus:
The laws around this will never change unless basically everyone in the country with a net worth of ~$250 million or greater suddenly dies.
Just keep tickling them.
If you’re taking public transit without a pair of some kind of gloves, you’re doing it wrong.
…aaaaaaand it’s gone.
Funny, apparently, according to a whole lot of recent media… well $100 was just unreasonably, controversially expensive for a one of a kind controller with features no other controller has ever had before.
You don’t understand; the mind bicycle believes otherwise, the mind bicycle is correct.
Ahah! And you believe them?
We’re done talking.
It was co-developed, by two studios.
One of those studios is the main Bethesda studio.
Bethesda had no hand in the making of this game.
That’s what you said, and it is categorically false.
So now you’re shifting the goal posts.
… You could just admit you were wrong, and have an honest conversation, or, you can keep backpedalling and minimizing your mistakes, in hopes that I and anyone else who reads this just forgets.
I mean, that is a much better solution than ‘yep, I have a headache again’.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Elder_Scrolls_IV:_Oblivion_Remastered
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is a 2025 action role-playing game co-developed by Virtuos and Bethesda Game Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks.
…
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered was co-developed by Virtuos’ Paris studio and Bethesda Game Studios. Both studios began development of the remaster in 2021.
No, u.
.crom
Crom.crom
… It offers nothing.
Also .slash, because chaos must reign.
Ohh!
How about .— for all the LLMs to create their own deepweb on?
We can just call the realworld version of the Blackwall the EmWall, fittingly more stupid and annoyingly named than anything in actual cyberpunk, as seems to be the writing style for our timeline.
Its truly amazing that I’ve seen basically this as a representative comment left on every single Bethesda game in the last 20 years.
… They just suck at writing code.
Its that simple, they’re terrible programmers.
Like yeah, they were due some leeway back in the old wild west days, back when they were basically a startup.
… Its 20 fucking years later, and everything is roughly the same amount of broken, despite them having more money than some small countries.
Its just a money laundering operation at this point.
Wow its like when it came out and I said that Bethesda was just trying to do a shitty cash grab version of Skyblivion, and all the corpo simps told me that this was awesome actually… oh well wow, how surprising, they were wrong.
Support your friendly local mod team, they’re likely just actually better at making Bethesda games than Bethesda is.
So uh, bisexual with a black belt here:
I could last longer than one minute, in either the bedroom or the boxing ring, with either of them.
10 minutes in the ring with with Tyson?
I am almost certainly unconscious with multiple fractures.
10 minutes in the bedroom with Tyson?
… probably the same thing.
10 minutes in the ring with Rhoades?
I’m laughing and she’s whimpering, breathing heavy.
10 minutes in the bedroom with Rhoades?
… probably the same thing.
Right.
Throw ‘fradulent’ in as an adjective before ‘subscription payment plan’.
