I highly recommend to diversify. Donate a smaller amount to a bunch of different charities.
I used to use it, but it would use a lot of CPU and hurt battery life, is the idea that you self host on a different machine?
you can have many many small groups
EXTREMELY confusing UI, but when you get used to it, nothing really comes close in terms of customisability and features.
Seriously, takes ages to find specific settings for the first few times.
Everybody should learn to program a computer, because it teaches you how to think

I think about this kind of stuff more than twice a day, it's so cool not knowing where humanity will be in the future
I'm on your side, but don't you think 'grotesquely immoral and unethical' is a bit of an exhaggeration? It's just software.
This honestly seems so stupid. Why?
I don’t like AI slop as much as the next guy, but that part doesn’t seem so bad? Sounds like something anyone could write.
Well that was a difficult read. Sure, it is a problem. But the author seemed so snobby about his music taste. Not very likeable.
What do you mean by churn in this context?
Noita is also procedural, but not static, although I'm not sure if that's what you're talking about.
I don't have the option for this. In the UK. Anyone else?

Not mine, just thought it was funny
Yeah their naming is bad. I've always knew it because of how long the types of poems are but most people don't know poems.

I know right? I'm into both things tech and hip hop, didn't expect them to collide
I viewed it on desktop, I still think it looks pretty good. Not efficient in the way it displays content, but still beautiful.
I did the opposite, I opened the website before looking at the comments and thought it was like a beautiful art gallery too. Then I read the top comment, and thought 'What are they talking about??'. Had a complete opposite feeling.
Where do you find the RSS feed? I can't see a link to it anywhere
How do you even know ANY of that??
An AI-generated thank you letter is not a real thank you letter. I myself am quite bullish on AI in that I think in the long term, much longer term than tech bros seem to think, it will be very revolutionary, but if more people like him have the balls to show awful things are, then the bubble will pop sooner and have less of a negative impact because if we just let these companies grow bigger and bigger without doing actually profitable things, the whole economy will go to shit even more.
I've never been able to get the whole idea that the code is being 'stolen' by these models, though, since from my perspective at least, it is just like getting someone to read loads of code and learn to code in that way.
The harm AI is doing to the planet is done by many other things too. Things that don't have to harm the planet. The fact our energy isn't all renewable is a failing of our society and a result of greed from oil companies. We could easily have the infrastructure to sustainably support this increase in energy demand, but that's less profitable for the oil companies. This doesn't detract from the fact that AI's energy consumption is harming the planet, but at least it can be accounted for by building nuclear reactors for example, which (I may just be falling for marketing here) lots of AI companies are doing.
I can second the Apollo thing. I think it might just be a natural name to give something, because when I was a kid I was working on a voice assistant thing instead of touching grass (never finished it) and called it Apollo. This was probably my first project.
It's not ChatGPT, try paste it into any AI detector.
Of course pictures of gay people doesn't encourage being gay, but being gay is fine. Being a pedophile is not fine. If there is even a small chance that something will cause someone to be a pedophile, it's best to minimize it. We aren't talking about pictures of pedophiles, we are talking about what is, in essence, child pornography. Maybe 'encourages pedophilia' is not a thorough enough way to phrase it, but a 'dormant' pedophile is much more likely to become an 'active' one if they are consuming excessive amounts of media related to their interests.
