hello! I’m Chloé, a nerdy ace trans gal :3

this is my lemmy account that I use sometimes. I am also on the microblogging side of the fedi at @carotte@toot.cat) :3

pronouns are she/her

  • New Twitter launches, says Musk's X gave up the name

    Jump

  • A new and notable feature is the automated fact-checking tool, a Gemini-based “veracity engine for real-time analysis” (“Vera” for short), which runs on every tweet.

    oh wow i can’t see how this could go wrong! /s

    the whole site honestly reeks of vibecoded in an afternoon too. still extremely funny tho, i hope they win their case

  • What it looks like to live next to a sprawling data center

    Jump

  • zoning laws when you want to build a nice neighborhood with shops among the houses: 😡🤬✋🛑 think about the Character of the Neighborhood!!!

    zoning laws when you want to build the Giant Evil Building of Doom and Constant High-Pitched Noise: 😁😇👍✅

  • lol

    Jump

  • erhm actually the first word of that book is "dictionary" ☝️🤓

  • French civil servant drugged us to make us urinate on ourselves, say accusers

    Jump

  • no that’s just wrong. that word is extremely offensive in many parts of europe and in canada as well, and i don’t doubt it’s offensive in other places too. it is absolutely offensive in france (and other francophone parts of europe/america) too.

  • Amazon Caught Destroying Rare Books to Train AI

    Jump

  • token if someone digitizes a physical medium and makes it available to the public copyright is no longer valid

    only if you destroy the original i guess

    (the real answer is that copyright is and always has been a tool for corporations to control the ownership of culture. what ai companies are doing isn’t fine in the eye of the state because it’s "transformative", it’s fine in the eyes of the state because they’re corporations selling their products)

  • How Russian propaganda is ‘poisoning’ AI chatbots to spout lies | ChatGPT and its rivals have been manipulated by a Kremlin unit that purports to be a human rights group as it opens a new front in th…

    Jump

  • noooo! not propaganda into my perfectly unbiased and neutral facts machine!

  • New Orleans will use AI to answer 911 calls instead of a human

    Jump

  • the ai when you tell it you’re being murdered

  • Maybe a better Threadiverse Major Defederations Graph?

    Jump

  • i know blahaj at least defederated it because of "a community for porn of women that appear to be under 18" (direct quotation from a local-only post)

    i couldn’t find it myself (there’s a lot of communities on there!) but i’m guessing it’s some sort of "barely legal" porn community, which is gross (but unfortunately very common). so good riddance imo

  • Wikimedia Foundation refuses voluntary union recognition, hires union-busting law firm

    Jump

  • as others have said, don’t necessarily stop using wikipedia & related tools (wiktionary, etc). they’re still useful and using them doesn’t directly benefit the foundation.

    however, if the union calls for an editorial strike (no more editing) or a full-on boycott, follow what they say, out of solidarity. it’s what i plan on doing. in general, i think this is the best reaction to union busting: follow what the union says.

    and yea, stop donating if you’re doing that.

  • Statcounter is now showing 10% Linux market share on desktops in North America

    Jump

  • according to what i’ve seen on reddit (amazing source i know), safari reports itself as OS X while other browsers report themselves as macOS

  • PSA Huggingface is scraping GitHub

    Jump

  • …and now, suddenly, github being overrun by vibecoded garbage isn’t so bad

  • FCC approves giant space mirror as astronomers warn of risks to the night sky

    Jump

  • thankfully the us is the only country that has a sky so only their government’s approval is needed 😁👍

  • Modern Gaming - Deathbulge

    Jump

  • if you’re looking for a fun couch coop game, towerfall is really awesome! it’s a 2D vertical fighting game with bows, the controls are very easy to pick up and the rounds are fast, so anyone can join in and it’s really fun!

  • Removed

    Zig language's policy on AI

    Jump

  • iirc their goal is not to have a perfectly enforceable policy, it’s to cultivate a culture around the language that is fully in favor of human contributors instead of ai. to let people learn and improve as they contribute, instead of simply merging code that looks good enough; they call it contributor poker

  • Framework proved repairable laptops can work, but almost nobody is willing to buy one

    Jump

  • American 250 🇺🇸

    Jump

  • there were wars yes. "totally wiping another out" tho? that was a european import.

    even if it was the case that First Nations were genociding each other (which again, it’s not), that still doesn’t justify european colonialism in any way.

  • Valve open source the Steam Machine e-ink screen so you can make your own

    Jump

  • IDGAF if Newell is a Epstein-class helo-pad yacht billionaire.

    that’s the problem, you should give a fuck about this! as well as valve’s history of promoting gambling, and the superprofits they get by overcharging publishers (especially indie devs which don’t get the special reduced rates bigger publishers get). don’t overlook all of this because they run a cool platform you like!

    (edited because my original reply was uselessly mean)
